waiter for him the other evening, much
10 the amusement of all who learned OF

a grain Of comfort In the incident when

over.
1t must surely lessen the cha grin
Of the representative OF an anglo
maniac American administration To
realize that the Heir Apparent 10
the throne OF Britain treated the

an instant that Albert Edward Is in the

that be woiiid not bear himself toward
Mr.. Choate as lie would toward a lnere

toward "a club waiter whom he sui
posed was Mr.. CbOate proves this.
Nor should Mr.. Mckinley's chief in

astonished that Albert Edward fell into

with the mU,iitica lion, The Ice Trust

cism which our opponents often unjust
ly apply to every form of industrial eff
fort"
This sounds the keynote OF the treat
ment which trusts are to receive at the
hands of Republicans during the cam
paigD. There are to he good trusts and
bad trusts. The lee Trust is to be
a bad trust because it cannot contribute
10 the campaign fund of the Republican
party. The Standard Oil Trust, the
Beef Trust, the Steel Trust, tho
Sugar Trust and all the others
which have contributed to the Re
publican slush fund are TO be good
trusts-a form of industrial effort cal
