The Recent Growth Of Trusts.

Editor of The Times: Bs
Sir.-The recent leaps and bounds made
byzthis great country in the past three
years are such as fairly TO dazzle the
Imagination. Actual figures show tina in
the year 1889 our exports and imports
aggregated over two thousand millions OF
dollars. Our exports exceeded our I'M
ports by over four hundred and fifty!
millions. What a lesson does this teach:
Every intelligent student Of finance must
know that this great trade. is brou g!at
about mainly. by the power of aggregate
capital brought together by means Of
corporations and trusts. Trusts ard cor
sporations are the legitimate outgrawth of
modern civilization. Wherever they exist
there wealth and prosperity will generally
be found. They have come to stay, and
have done an immense amount of good
in my judgment, far overbalancing THE
harm. With kerosene oil at ten cents a
gallon, with sugar at five cents "a pound.
with cotton cloth at three GEMS a yard,
with, railroad freight carried at&less than
cent a ton a mile, who can say that
these are not blessings? Who can say
that the sum of human happiness Is not
increased by making the necessaries of
life so cheap that they are almost in the
reach Of all !? Senator Henry Cabo t Lodge
was right when he said that the rich
are getting richer, and the poor are get
ting richer. No man can deny that the

year after, by another work. "Apaise-.

but it was only in 1887. with the p,Iblica-
ton of collection of sonnets entitled
Sites" that he attracted the attention
of the literary world. NJ. de Regnier be-
longed to the group of young poets that
received the name of 'tDecadents," or
'.SNnlbolists," this last name being per-
manently attached to those who recog-
nized Paul Verlane and Stephane Mall
