Buckle, in his history Of Civiliza-
ton in England, Vol. l, p. Sc,
says:
"There is no instance on record
Of any class possessing power with
ont abusing it, .4 ...~...-...
This was written fifty years ago.
1t was true when written; it is true
now and always will be true, because
selfishness is inherent in man.
Monopoly is power born Of legal
privilege. 1t is not natural power,
nor the result of natural law. On
the contrary, it is the logical result
of unnatural law. 1t is not the
result of natural evolution, but the
fruit of inhuman law made in direct
violation Of the laws of the Creator.
The exercise of the power of legal
privileges, which is now arousing
the indignation Of society in all
lands, merely confirms the words
Of Buckle. We should remember
that the power Of the monstrous
combinations of to-day, which are
universally harmful, lies not in
capital, but in legal privileges /;
therefore the withdrawal Of all legal
privileges will destroy the unnatural
advantage which they enjoy over
competitors and render them power
less for harm.

National Politics.

Washington, March 24.-Roused
to action by the active and energet-
ic canvass which Col William J.
Bryan is making over the country,
the Republican national committee
has started in to cOunteract the ef-
feet of the Nebraskan's S telling work
by inaugurating the literary part of
that party's presidential campaign,
and the preliminary work of the
forthcoming contest is now under
full headway.
At the headquarters of the ma
tional committee in this city force
Of clerks is at work day and night
preparing and sending broadcast
over the country Republican politi-
cal documents. In few days ad-
ditional quarters will be secured
for the accommodation of another
force of employees.
The work now going On is under
the immediate supervision of Con-
gresham Dick Of Ohio, the secre-
tary of the committee, who is col
laborating with Senator Hanna, the
national chairman and the guiding
spirit Of the committee. Dick and
Hanna hold conferences daily and
carefully go over the field together.
Perry S. Heath, the First Assistant
General, after his Off
cial duties at the department are
concluded for the day, spends
many hours in assisting and CO.
operating with them. Henry G..
Payne of Wisconsin, vice chair
man of the national committee
Joseph Manley and Senator Scott,
respectively members Of that body
from Maine and West Virginia,
also are assisting. The great quad
rennial political contest may now
be said to be fairly under way. |
Bryan is conducting his canvass
personally and delivering speeches,
while the Republicans are doing
work in another way.

The city authorities Of Chicago
announce that the familiar lunch
cars will be forbidden the use Of
Chicago streets after the LIST Of
May. What the potent influence
may be which has induced this in
reference with men who are earn
ing an honest living by rendering
useful service is not obvious, but
no one doubts that there is such an
influence. Special privilege in some
form is egging the authorities on.

The autonomists in Cuba, who
acted with the Spanish government
against the revolutionists two years
ago, have been busily at work ad-
vising the American senatorial
committee that the Cuban people
are unfit for self-government.
Their success remains to be seen.
It would be ludicrous outcome,
though, If we should find ourselves,
after our war for the liberation Of
Cuba, in the position Of Spain's
successor, with the revolutionists
in snbjection as before to the au-
tonomists, and foreign military
despotism over all.-IRe Public.

The big money makers bloom early,
but soon sink into oblivion from hard
and constant usage. Many of the
successful publishers of to-day have
dated their success from the publlca-
ton of a single popular song. Yet not
one of them knows to a certainty a
popular song when he sees it. He has
to guess at it and take chances until
the people have stamped upon it their
approval. After this there is nothing
to do but keep the presses going and
= gather in the shekels.
AN OLD FAvORITE.
Everybody remembers the vogue Of
"After the Ball is Over" a few years
ago and how Charles Harris, the writ
er and composer, went from one pub
Usher to another, meeting failure after
failure, until finally he paid for the
printing and cleared $40, 900. This re-
jected song started him in the song
publishing business
Then there is Paul Dresser, the com
edian, who was travelling owe the
country in second-class companies
singing his own songs. While in New
York he met an old friend from Evans
vile, md, who was stranded in that
big city. Dresser was about to return
to his Indiana home, and asked this
friend if he could take a message for
him. The friends voice grew husky,
and he looked down at his tattered
clothes, and then said:
Just tell them that you saw me-
Dresser wrote and composed that pa
thetic song, and his fortune was mad
Kerry Mills, the greatest o.
rag-time tWo-steps in the history OF
American music, and the originator OF
the rag-time craze, has a snug fortune
Of $3.50, 900, all made within the past six
years from his music. His "A Geor-
gia Camp Meeting'' put him upon the
highway to fortune, and he followed it
with "Whistling Rufus" and "Rastus
on Parade with similar success.
These and others OF his haunting rag
time melodies have placed him at the
head of modern song composers. His
income from royalties now averages
$4,000 a year,
Harry Won Ti1zer's I'd Leave My
HAPPY Home Fol- You" was another
one Of the big winners, and is still
heard wherever boys whistle or girls
play the piano. Mr.. Won Tilzer
couldn't be dragged away from his
happy home now, and it is suspected
tina he was only fooling in the first
place.
The same story might be told OF
many other of the famous popular airs.
When these facts are considered, 1t is
not strange that many tempt fate By
trying to ompose a popular song. but
composing a song and having one ac-
cepted by a publisher is quite different,
Publishers are exceedingly cautious,
and while they are looking for hits
they are not taking any extraordinary
chances.

Popular Melodies of joy and Sorrow
4hat Have Made Laughter and
Tears--and Fortunes.

The writing of what is known as a
popular song is an exceedingly prof.
table pastime when the elastic public
will accept it, whistle it and perform
other acts essential to a verdict of pop
ularity. This the masses appear to
do with the ditties Of Monroe H. Ro-
Senfeld.
Off twelve of Mr.. Rosenfeld's songs
nearly $500, 900 have been made. Here
are some of his noted works and their
respective sales:

gestion is sufficient for him to dictate
the words of a ong seemingly without
any thought, and he then adds the mu-
sic. While his best songs AVE been
written after an inspiration has sug-

AS in other lines, there are many
songs that achieve distinct success, but
never become the popular vogue. They
remain in steady deman for years, the
royalties piling up and the publishers
growing rich. They are the gems of
song writing and rama1n when their vi
vacous rivals have become shreds q

New York has been backward in
"barbershop hygiene" which the Med
ical Record has adj
yocated for num-
h"roer s"'pA' Der of years. Paris
has continued in the praiseworthy re-
forms started several years ago, and
now only metal combs are allowed,
and, so far as it is possible, all instru-
ments have to be made of metal. or
some substance which can be readily
sterilized along with the towels, while
the operator himself is expected to
keep his hands reasonably clean.
Pennsylvania is to be congratulated
upon starting a movement in the
proper direction, to secure an inn
provement in the conditions surround
ing the barber and his work The
state board of health has circulated
series of recommendation which,
if followed, would vastly decrease the
chances of spread of contagious dis
ease in this way. Doing away with
sponges and powder puffs, not using
on one customer after another the
same piece of alum to stop bleeding
and taking care in the use of cos
metics not to let them serve as media
of transmitting disease from one per-
son to another, are all wise sugges-
tions. Missouri has made stand for
scientific and sterile barbering. A
board of examiners will see to it that
the barber is qualified, among other
things, to give clean shave. Canada
isfollowing in the footsteps of France,
Austria and Germany. The province
of Quebec requires the barber, first of
all, to be himself healthy subject,
free from transmissible affections.
Then he must pass an examination
in disinfection, and promise to apply
his knowledge for the benefit of his
patrons. In connection with this inn
portant subject it is interesting to
learn that Huebener, of Breslau,
foundpyogenic microbes in the boards
Of physicians IL times in 26 examina-
tions. Flugge found that in beard
ed subject there was a marked in
crease in the number of colonies when
the beard was left uncovered near
agar culture plates. 1t is not. how
ever, necessary for us to go into the
minutiae of scientific refinement in
order TO convince the thinking of the
necessity for some regulation of the
BARRIERS business.

M'KINLEY BOSS RIDDEN.
The President Has NIortsaged His
Chances for Second Term to
the Combine.

Secretary Dick, right bower to the
mighty Hanna, has sent to the chair
man of the Texas republican state
committee hint that sit is deemed
advisable that, so far as practicable,
delegations to the coming national
convention should be composed of
those not holding federal appoint
ments" The Chicago Times Herald is
thereupon moved to remark:
There will be no excuse for a repetition
of the monumental folly of 1892. The con-
test at Minneapolis was struggle between
the federal Office holders and the deter
mined followers of a man who had been n
popular idol for 20 years. No ore denies
that the administration of President Har-
rison was able and patriotic. and that 1t
commanded the confidence and admiration
of the people. BY common acknowledge
ment of all fair-minded people he was en-
titled to another term. TWAS unfortunate,
therefore, that his relations with his secre
tary of state should have precipitated a
struggle that made a grand rally of the
Office holders at Minneapolis necessary to
secure his denomination.
''How far the presence and the strenuous
labors of office holders in the Minneapolis
convention may have contributed toward
the defeat of Mr.. Harrison at the polls is
question upon which there Will always
be wide diversity of opinion among poll
ticians. But upon the question of the adj
visibility of -ayoiding a repetition of the
folly of 92 there can be no difference of
opinion among intelligent republicans"
q. ltwas not President Harrison's re-
lations with Mn. Blaine, but his lack
s of relations with the political bosses
in various states that precipitated the
struggle in the convention of 1892
The opposition seized upon Blaine's
once may be compelled again. A wrong
done to one element of the American
people furnishes precedent fol-
wrongs to other elements of the same
people. And the Gargantuan greed o
the tariff syndicatcs, sure of their gril
on the American government and PEG
pie, is not likely to be satisfied with ths
Porto Rican tribute as the full profit
accruing from such power.
Does the American constitution o.
the trust system govern the American
people these days? This is the ques
ton to be answered by the action o
congress on the Porto Rico tariff bill
