Chairman Jones of the democratic national
committee renews his protest against being
classed with the trust magnates, and begins
to show some feeling on the subject He in
sists that the cotton bale enterprise in
which he is interested is in no sense a
trust, but a legitimate business venture
whose only offense is prosperity. 1t pays
the shareholders well. but pays them with
money properly earned. and there is
good reason why they should be assailed,
even in the heat of a political campaign,
for their good fortune in dividing up re-
turns from a genuinely good thing
Undoubtedly Mr.. Jones means every word
he says. He experiences a sense of out
rage that anybody should so misread and
misconstrue the nature and the operations
Of business rganization which is minis
tering to the needs of a large portion of
the country in the line of preparing cotton
for shipment. Why should he be attacked
for holdings which any man of affairs would
be glad to secure. and why should such an
organization be held up to contumely when
its patents are properly authenticated and
al the features of its existence are by law
regular? And then Mr.. Jones puts the in
quiry in tone of mingled pathos and in
dignation, Have things come to such a
pass that democrat may not engage in a
legitimate busness?"
By no means. Mr. Chairman! This is
country of business, and business and poll
tics mix well in 1t as in any other coun-
try on the globe. The difficulty is that in
this matter of trusts they have mixed only
too well. Cannot you see that the reply you
make for the cotton bale industry is the
very same reply that is made for every one
of the other corporations denominated as
trusts? According to the parties in inter-
est, not one of those corporations is trust.
but all are legitimate business enterprises
minstering to the needs of the country.
You, in Mr.. Bryan's interests, are assail-
ing trusts corporations akin in nearly
corporation in which you are interested.
And naturally their shareholders are as
sensitive TO the accusation as to their COM
panies as you are to that to the company to
which you belong.
The Star the other day proposed a joint
debate between Chairman Jones and Chair
man Hanna, and called for second to the
motion. The Baltimore Herald promptly
gave this and pointed out that such
meeting or series of meetings would afford
Mr.. Jones an opportunity to reply fully to
Why not the joint debate? Mr.. Hanna says
there are no trusts. Mr.. Jones is accused of
belonging to a trust. What crowds would
: gather to hear those two men discuss that
subject! Mr.. Bryan and Governor Roose-
welt from the same platform would not
draw better.

With automobiles building pretty nearly
all over the world, and the trade booming
at rate which knows no pause or ebb. it
would seem as If the price of rubber, so
large a factor in the composition of the
vehicle, besides its other uses. ought to go
up instead of down: but the contrary seems
to be the case at present. Brazil is just
now going through a financial crisis. and
one of Its causes appears to be the low
price of that commodity, which is one Of Its
chief commercial productions. There are,
of course, other factors in the depression,
and the country, no doubt needs a thor
ough revision Of its financial. currency and
banking systems, all of which should be
secured without much difficulty Its pro-
ductive capabilities in certain directions are
practically Hmitless. and their development
only needs sound business methods. With
these the republic ought to grow rich In
short order. with surplus in bank and its
paper gilt edged the world over. 1t wants
a great and increasing quantity of our COM
modities. and may reasonably look for help
from our financiers whenever 1t can judic-
iouSly be extended.

From the Philadelphia Medical Journal.
The value of teaching of flrst-aid-to-the-
injured is illustrated almost every day, but
in no case more aptly than in that Of
brakeman on the Erie railroad who fell
from his train. A leg was cut off by the
car wheels, but, with admirable presence of
mind. the man constructed tourniquet
with his handkerchief and knife whereby
he stopped the hemorrhage. Even in this
condition he built a fire In order to warm
himself, and awaited the next train. which
he signaled: he was taken aboard and to
a hospital We trust that the time will
come when school children in the upper
grades may be taught so much of applied
physiology will enable them to act
sensibly in the case of the thousand emer-
gencies sure to take place In after-life with
themselves or their fellows 1t Is strange
that almost all lay people lose their
heads In accidents and injuries. and do
precisely what should not be DONE This
is especially true when hemorrhage Is pres
ent. Many people either faint or are
seized with panic at the mere sight Of blood
"a possible echo of primitive barbaric blood
rites and blood frenzies. To supplant this
loss Of control by calm and intelligent ac-
ton according to the circumstances and
condltions Is one Of the duties we owe to
the COMING generations.

The Coal Strike Sill On.

The coal strike is unended yet. the miners
insisting that none Of them shall return to
work until all of the operators have posted
notices in accord with the Scranton agree
ment of ten per cent advance until April
and the adjustment of the sliding scale.
1t appears that there is a less effective Or
ganization among the operators than
among the miners. for the former have
been quite irregular in their terms of agree
ment and are apparently uncertain as to
the proper method of treating the powder
charge. The strikers, on the other hand,
are presenting an unbroken front and the
anthra cite trade remains at a standstill

just the reverse. The Berlin comment 10
exultaut, the London comment rather sui
len. Germany halls with joy the prospect
of securing equal trade facilities in the
Yangtse valley which England might, 1t
was feared, close to German trade, while
London apparently regrets that England did
not. at least in part, close the trade door
to that region. The natural inference Is
that Germany has been making a very loud
noise in the hope of securing very little
advantage, while England has been hoping
for more than would accrue to her through
the adoption of the policy which her gov
eminent has steadfastly advocated.

A peculiar phase OF the effect OF the An

pears when the comments of Berlin and
London newspapers are compared. In view
of the recent past 1t might have been sup
posed that Berlin would denounce the fact
a surrender of Germany's rightful share
OF the Chinese prey. while the traditional
pursuit Of the open door policy by England
would lead one tc expect London to well

along that line. The situation seems to be

Lord Durhams declaration that Ameri-

emily based on the belief that the ruin he
gan when the American horses and Jockeys
commenced to win races. Nothing was
heard of the American ruin so long as the
Yankee competitors came home in the ruck
Of the procession. But the complaint is
vocal when the Americans win the indica-
ton Is that the ruin that troubles the Brit
on most Is that which falls on the hackers
of British horses.
