President Williams, spea king of
business on the Seaboard, recently
said: The slackening in business
which is reported in different parts
Of the country has not begun to
maifest itself with us. On the
contrary, the movement Of freight
and passengers over the Seaboard
is growing uninterruptedly, and
the only difficulty we have to
contend with just now is a serious
shortage in cars. We cannot
begin to furnish the equipment
required to transport the business
that is being offered to US. We
are running many extra train to
move this traffic, and at a meeting
Of our directors this week | found
it necessary to recommend the
purchase Of two thousand
additional freight cars, for which
we will send our specifications to
the car builders at once. The
linking together of the Florida
Central and Peninsular and
Georgia AMI Alabama divisions of
the Seaboard Air Line will mean
large increase in business to all
parts of the system. The old
main line of the Seaboard will
hereafter enjoy large bu siness in
Florida products escpeally in the
line Of fruits and vegetables, Of
which it has heretofore had nc
share, and the business which it
will derive from the Georgia and
Alabama in the way Of lumber
and other Georgia products will be
considerable. | think it will be

BOOKER T. WASHINGTON
BY PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR.

The word Is writ that he who runs
may read,
What is the passing breath OF earthly
fame?
But to snatch glory from the hands of
blame
That is to be, to I've, to strive indeed.
A poor Virginia cabin gave the seed,
And fIom lis dark and lOwly door
there came
A peer of princes in the worlds ac-
claim,
A master spirit for the nations need.
Strong, silent, purposeful beyond his
kind,
The 10 ark of rugged force on brow and
lip.
Straight on he goes, nor turns to look
behind
Where hot the hounds come baying
at his hip;
With one idea foremost in his mind.
Like the keen PROV of some on forging
ship.

Strikers Want Sympathy

Chicago, April 27.-The Chronicle says:
"A committee representing the striking
southern railroad operators has been in
Chicago several days comforting with
promi aent members of the Order Of Rail-
way 1elegraphers regarding sympathetic
action to help the southerners win. A
number of secret meetings have been
held At these conferences the question
of a sympathetic strike has been receiv-
ed warmly. Incidentally the operators
have been asked to contribute to the
support of the men on the southern road,
and yesterday it was said that a large
sum will be obtained here for that pur-
pose.
According to a renorted plan the SYM
pathetic strike may he ordered on all
important railway systems east Of the
Mississippi river.
The committee representing the strik-
ers will, it is said, also visit st. Louis,
Pittsburg, Buffalo, Philadelphia, Ralti-
more. New York and other important
railroad centers to work up similar SEN
timent for the southern men. Already 1t
Erie and Pittsburg & Western have made
demands for increases in wages FROM 10
to 20 per cent.
Members of the Order of Railway Tel
egraphers say this is the first strike of
importance ever authorized by The order
and the men are determined that ir shall
succeed. as the life or death of the or
ganixation depends upon the result
More than $4,000 railway telegraphers IL

not care to give the amounts received for
these lands but as the average price
of land in that region is from $3.50 to $3.50

something like $2,000,00O.
The report that all the remnants of land
ins Minnesota formerly owned by this
road had been sold to St. Paul syndicate
was also confirmed by President Mellen.
These lands consisted mostly of timber
and swamp lands and were sold in order
to escape the payment of taxes and be-
cause they could not be handled by the
road to the same advantage as by syn
dicate The amount received for this sale
is estimated al about $3.50, 900.
President Mellen also explained the at

leading reports have been published.

We Will. however, build no extension and
no new lines. We are on the friendliest

given the Canadian Pacific the right to
parallel all our lines in Manitoba.
we do not wish to further arouse the
ire OF the Canadian Pacific by extending

within it's bosom the seeds of failure.
Long before we could legislate with
much effect against trusts there would
De no necessity for legislation. The past
proves this and the future is to confirm
it. There should be nothing but en-
couragement for these vast gregations
OF capital, for the manufacture Of staple
articles.
''As for the result being all increase Of
price to the consumer beyond brief
period. there need be no fear. On the
contrary the inevitable result of these
aggregations is finally and permanently
to give to the consumer cheaper articles
than would have been otherwise possi-
pie to obtain; for capital is stimula ted
by the high profits of the trust for sea-
son to embark against it,
The result is very soon a capacity Of
production beyond the wants OF the con-
Of the most improved pattern and ,.apa-
pie OF producing cheaper than the old
works, the vulnerable trusts are COM
PEELED to buy and capitalize at Two or
three times their cost. There is thus no
danger ahead to the community from
trusts nor any cause for fear.
Competition in all departments Of hu-
man activity Is not to be suppressed. Al
ready the ghosts Of numerous departed
trusts which aimed at monopolies have
marched across the stage Of human at
ialrs, each pointing to it's fatal wound,
inflicted by that great corrective com
petition. The only people who have rea-
son to fear trusts are those VINO trust

I'VE conclude that this overpovering,

even greatly impeded and that. instead
Of attempting to restrict either, we should
hail every Increase as something gained,

poor richer in the possession of better

ENTIRE FAMILY
COMMIT SUICIDE,

Cambridge, Nd. April 27.--A German
family, consisting Of Carl Kernig, his
wife and son, were discovered dead in
their little farm house seven miles from
this city, each corpse having a moose
about the neck. Strangulation was prob
ably the cause Of death in each case.
Frnna the decomposed condition Of the
bodies it is thought the act must have
been committed several days ago. AS
far as known the last seen of any men,
ber of the family was on last Saturday,
when the elder Kernig came to Cam
bridge and drew $500 from a bank. No
trace OF this money could be found to-
day.
The authorities are Of the opinion that
young Carl Kernig assisted his father
and rlother to hang themselves and then
after making half hitch with the rope
stangled himself and fell where his
body was found today.
