THREE WAYS TO
 CONTROL COMBINATIONS
By Edward Atkinson.


 'What reforms should the new century bring in the way of controlling great com bina tons of capital known as trusts?' l. That in my judgment the only method of dealing with the so-called trusts is to require publicity of accounts, then trusting to the survival of the Attest. The combi- nations which survive will be those which do the greatest and most useful work at the very least cost to the community, pay ing of necessity the very highest rates of wages that the price of the product will permit to the worlxmen whom they employ.

pr. MendS Thinks Interests of Religion Should be Guarded
THE NECESSITY OF A SYNOD
Should be Permanent and World Wide So That Judaism in Every Part of the World Will be
 the Same.

New York, December SO--At the biennial meeting at the Union of Orthodox Hebrew congregations held today in this city Rev Dr. H. P. Mendes the president, made the opening address, saying in part:
 We differ from reform Jews in our in- sistence of thorough knowledge of the teachings of our holy book, combined with loyalty to the principles of obedience and to establish rulings which shall not be amended except by the best attainable wis com of experts and perhaps we differ from some upholders of one form of orthodoxy Judaism which to us seems to require permanent council to guard the interests of our religion by defining Jewish duty in response to new conditions, which fre- quently arise.
 "The necessity of a synod that should be a permanent body and composed of repre- sentatives from all parts of the world, so that Judaism in one country will be the same as Judaism in another becomes ap- parent when we read of the action taken by the eighteenth council of the Union of American Reformed Hebrew congregations held in Richmond in December of last year. At that session they adopted resolutions declaring that the Jews are not nation. America is our zion against such radical departure from the teaching of Jeremiah, and we must emphatically protest, for such gross misrepresentation of Judaism and its ideals will mislead many Hebrews as well as many of our neighbors of an alien faith by causing them to believe that we no longer entertain the ideal of Jewish na- tonality."
 Content With Ordinary Divorces.
 pr. Mendes then dwelt at some length on the fact that many Jews are content with such divorces as they obtain from the civil courts of the country, the custom of widows marrying the brothers of their de- ceased husbands and of the intermarriage of Jews and Gentiles. all of which he de- nounced as being inimical to the interests of Judaism and on the effort to have the Red Cross emblem changed because Jew ish physicians, surgeons, orderlies, etc., might have conscientious scruples against wearing what is emblem associated with a religion whose doctrines are antag- onistic to their own.
 The following resolutions were adopted: 3 That committee be appointed to for mulate unions for the purpose of instruct ing the young in English.
 That on the eve of all Jewish festivities and holidays an explanation of the sig nifcance of the same be sent to the As- sociated Press, together with a request chat they publish the same
 That the executive committee take such steps as they may deem advisable to fur ther Sabbath observance.
 That a committee be appointed to com municate with the national government at Washington, asking them to provide chap lains in the United tSates army and navy to minister the religious instructions of the Hebrews in that branch of the public service

this Summer.

feet in height above the sea level,
and is covered with valuable pine
forests.
This region has many very
remarkable natural features,
among which l might speak of
Howard Bolson, on the line be-
tween Texas and Mexico, with
its strange lake of crystal salt.
1t is quite large body of water,
and is always covered with thin
layer of salt, which up to very
recent times was the chief source
of salt supply for all of Northern
Mexico. The natives used to
come hundreds of miles to get it.
But the railways arrived, civiliza-
tion was introduced and an Am
erican named Howard took pos
session of the lake under settlers
rights. That was about ten
years ago. Inasmuch as the abb
origines had always considered
the lake the common property of
of all, they resented the monopoly
and murdered the new owner. Of
course, the salt is derived from
the rocks of the mountains sur
rounding the lake, being carried
into the latter by streams. There
is no outlet, and evaporation be-
ing very rapid, the saline element
steadily accumulates.
81 ought not to forget to men,
ton the wonderful Desert of
White Sand, which covers several
hundred square miles. Over all
of its erea, there is nothing but
the pureSt white sand, which is
not quartz, like beach sand, but
composed of grains of gypsum or
alabaster. AS you may imagine,
it is very beautiful. Contrasting
with this are the equally interest
ing Malpais lands, the surface of
which is made up of lava. This
lava makes a broad ribbon run
ming 40 miles southwark from a
crater situated midway between
. the Sierra Oscura and the Sacra-
mento range, the volcano itself
raising from the center of boil
son desert. The lava is bubbly,
. ropey and cinder-like in different
parts, and has the appearance of
having been discharged in a mol
ton condition at a very recent
, period.
, Again, there are the wonder
full vermilion lands-vast stretches
t of bloOd-red landscape, broken
5 only by occasional strips of SNOW
= white gypsum. They are an
outcrop of the red clays and rocks
t of the ancient Permiam forma-
ton. Rising sometimes 1000
r feet or more above the desert
-, plains are the superb escarpments
Y of the plateaus, the SUBMITS cliffs
e of which are often so sheer and

+. many miles before he can find a
: place where it is practicable to

Uncle Sam this summer is going
to explore the least-known region
within the limits of the United
States-the mysterious country
of Western Texas, where the old
time adventurer Coronado was
lost, together with his band of
followers, while searching for
the golden village of Gran Quive-
ra. He was led to believe that
there was such a village, filled
with stores of the yellow metal,
by the tales of the treacherous
Indians who conducted him into
those wilds for the purpose of los
ing the party and leaving them
to starve in the desert wastes.
| They were taken by their false
guides across the Staked Plains
into this vast and horrible trap;
but, having discovered the snare,
they managed to make their way
out of it.
The government expedition
will be headed by Robert T. Hill
of the United States Geological
Survey. Yesterday Mr.. Hill said:
Notwithstanding the vast
amount of exploration and scienti-
fic research that has been going
on, some of the most elementary
features of American geography
are at present practically un-
known. We may say to begin
with that the most conspicuous
feature of the North American
continent is the great Cordillera
or Rocky Mountain system, with
its bordering ranges of gigantic
Sierras inclosing vast basin deS-
erts. This system stretches, in a
shape that may be likened to a
canoe, from British Columbia to
the drop-off of the Mexican pla-
teau south of the City of Mexico.
1.-The eastern rim of the canoe,
known as the Rockies, has been
mapped up to date only as far as
Santa Fe, New Mexico, Western
Texas and Northeast Mexico are
many great mountains and ranges
which have never been delineated
on any chart. No definite idea
exists as to their arrangement, the
elevation to which they rise OF
} the details of their topography
1t is known, however, that II

Rio Grande, the mountains of the
: mighty system run into the sea
where the great costal plain tha'
begins in New Jersey and run:

nent comes to an end.

new MEXICO FAIR
AT ALBUQUERQUE.

To the people of the Southwest:
The twentieth annual fair of the
New Mexico Territorial Fair AS
sociation will be held in the city
of Albuquerque from September
18th to 22nd, 1900, and like the
exhibition given last fall, will be
a grand free street fair and carni-
val.
There will be a base ball tour
nament, open to amateur clubs of
New Mexico, Arizona and Ell
Paso, Texas, professionals barred,
and first, second and third money
prizes will be offered.
Besides this tournament, which
ought to stir the baseball players
and fans of the Southwest into
active practice, the executive
committee has decided to give
liberal money prizes for tug-of-
war contests, rock-drilling con-
tests, foot racing and numerous
other athletic sports.
Arrangements have been made
with first class eastern amuse-
ment company, who will handle
the Midway Plaisance" features;
while contracts will be mailed to
a tirst-class aeronaut, who, with
his lady partners, will give bal
loon ascensions every afternoon
and evening during the fair. The
ascensions at night will be with
electrical effects, and on the
race order, and while in the air
the aeronauts will lombard each
other with Roman candles and
other firing devices.
One of the most interesting
features of last falls successful
fair was the splendid fireworks,
given under the skillful manage
ment of w. H. Wilson, a pyro-
technist of Los Angles, Cal. He
has been re-engaged for the forth
coming fair, and he writes that
his designs will be entirely new
and some of them will represent
some of the great political ques-
tions now pending before the Am
erican people.
The platform features will be
numerous, consisting in part OF
May-pole dances, surpentine
dances, acrobatic and trapeze per.
formances, and, if possible, the
committee will reproduce the
american Flag" which was
successfully given at the nationa
encampment of the G. A. r. sew
eral years ago.
During the week a grant
trades display and parade, with
numerous attractive and costly
floats, will be given, and thi'
feature has already been assured
a successes by the manifest inter
est of the merchants, the Elks
the Woodmen of the world, thu
c. Colombo Society, and othe
organizations, who will be rep
resented by appropriate floats
Each and every division of th
parade will be headed by
brass band.
The merchants of Albuquerqu
the solid contributors of thes
annual fairs-extend a cordial in
vitation to the people of tn
Southwest to attend this fall
fair festivities, assuring all visit
ors that they will be royalty en-
tertained and that they will b
we'll pleased and satisfied wit
, their visit to Albuquerque.
The railroads will give great
reduced rates to all fair visitors

The New Shamrock

New York, Nov. Sir Thomas Lip
ton is comforting at Glasgow with Geo.
L. Watson, the designer of the new
challenger for the Americas cup, says
a London dispatch to the Herald.
From authoritative sources il is
learned that Sir Thomas's visit was
for the purpose of signing contracts
for the building of the yacht. These
have been placed with the Hendersons.
Meadowside yard, the builders of the
Thistle, the three Valkyries, the Brit
ANNA, the Meteor and the Sybarita.
The date specified in the contracts
for the handing over of the vessel is
March 80. The framework will be
laid down this week.
The greatest precautions are being
taken to preserve secrecy regarding
the design. A footpath along the
banks of the Clyde, which skirts the
Henderson's yards, is already closed.
AS to the plans for the sailing of
the defender of the cup, what E A.
Willard, the manager of the new boat,
may do in the matter of selecting a
skipper, remains to be seen.
