Human Dexeneracx,

In the Chicago Chronicle of the 9th
inst. appears thoughtful article on
mans degeneration, although the arti-
Gle Is somewhat eQuivocal in its char
acter, 1t affords food for study. The
tremendous increase of crime. poverty
and general misery among the toiling
class of American people will make hu-
manity to stagger more than Dom Paul
and his little band of heroic Beers. Ac-
cording to the highest and best author
tiles more than one million men and
women are thrown out Of employment
and homes every year upon the world,
to tramp or gain livelihood by ques-
tionable or precarious methods.
Many are boys and young girls, who
soon gravitate td the slums or soon
become graduates in the criminal class.
1t is a notorious and public fact that
in many of our western cities and towns
that there are white American girls,
many Of them reared in homes of re-
finement, some in luxury, that are serv-
ing as waiter girls in Chinese chop
houses, and negro restaurants, dance
houses and brothels.
Who is to blame for this shameful
condition? The individual or the social
and financial system of the country
That they are generally artificial or
brought about by human agency, no one
will deny. In many cases we see
man, the king of the universe, has been
reduced to a condition lower than the
beasts of burden and performing SER
vice more menial, and living in quarters
more untenable than those occupied by
the dogs and horses owned by the
wealthy classes. Perhaps in no coun-
try on earth are the distinctions so
great as right here in America. That
these abominable conditions have been
brought about by the people themselves
there is no question. It has largely
been by maintaining the two corrupt old
parties, which are owned and controlled
soul and body by what is known as the
money power" and by a neglect on
the part of the people in general. to
study those important subjects, sociol-
ogy and political economy, and let some
one else do their thinking for them,
and misrepresent them in the halls Of
state. With our state houses and legis-
latures full of political knaves, rubber
necks, corporation tools, Anglo-maniacs,
trust attorneys and traitors, the people
need not look for much legislation in
their behalf or interest

The Relation of the Trusts to thu
COnAumer.

The Relation of the Trusts to the
Consumer.
BY w. L. Chaffee, Minneapolis.
While it has been demonstrated that
the commercial salesman is one of the
first to feel the blighting hand of the
trust, we should not as class be found
opposing them, could it be shown that
they are beneficial to the people as a
whole.
The travelling man is too broad mind
ed to stand in the way of progress, and
we are willing to discuss the working Of
these modern monopolies. Not alone
in their relations to the travelling man.
but upon that broad principle upon
which any republic must stand-"the
greatest good to the greatest number" !"
Unfortunately these great corporations,
in their organization, capitalization and
actual workings have already demon
strated that they are founded upon the
least good to the greatest number.
Their primary and sole object is to
COulIOl pIOUUCIlOu, cAlmludlc COupcCl-
ton, and advance prices.
The American citizen who advocates
or apologies for this modern inquisi-
ton must brush aside history, shut his
eyes to the factss harden his heart to
humanity and intoxicate himself with
the ambition of his own greed and avar-
ice.
The trust of today knows no law but
its own. It has but one end to serve,
and that end it's own profit by extortion.
submit the following proposition as
basis for my address, to-wit: That the
trusts of today as organized and oper-
ated impose an additional burden upon
both the producer and the consumer,
and as such are a menace to the liberty,
freedom, general welfare and good gov
ernment of the people as q whole. The
present plan in vogue is for several cor
porations in the same business to sell
their properties to q new corporation.

competition, would not necessarily add

better 60 to raising cabbages.
When you think of the Louisiana su-
gar-cane fields, that have to be planted
afresh each year, "REMEMBER THE
NAME" where the sugar-cane need
not be planted but once every 10 or Is
years, and sanctify that horrible trag-
edy by opening to our own impoverish-
ed people the great sugar supply of
Cuba, that those who need it most may
be saved $4,000. .O000 in sugar bills. or
get sugar at two cents per pound.
Then Cuba will prosper and buy more
of the goods we to advantage can man
ufacture.
Then Porto Rico will flourish and be
able to run its government by "direct
taxation"
Probably then, too, Senator Davis will
step forward and say I'VE have the con-
stitutional right to tax incomes of the
rich, because, in his sanctifed judg-
ment, 1T Is just so to do.'
