FIRE LOSSES.

The report of the tire marshal shows that
fire. losses in New York last year were
nearly double those Of the year before
The number of fires increased nearly

that all persu-s handling electric light ap-

nutshell. and that IS the keynote of the
business combine of the future. Polits-
clans may pirate about trusts and poll
parties may talk about antitrust laws
and all that, but this sort of cooperation
will increase as our civilization comes
nearer and nearer to the perfection mark.
The grinding autocratic, mpnopolistic, ex-
tortionate trust is creature of the
imag ination, for if any one thing has
been demonstrated in trade it is that in
order to succeed a trust must always
be on its good behavior. must get the
good will of the people. and in order to
this it must give to the people the best
article at the lowest price.
Asking pardon, we take the Case of the
Danville Register as an Illustration. There
were two newspapers in that live city
conducted under separate Arrangements,
and as rivals in business there was, no
doubt, rate-cutting from time to time in
advertising. But, as the Register itself
well says, the two papers can be more
economically conducted under one man
asement. and after May 1st the Register
win have control of the newspaper field
in DanuiIle. The Register will now be
in a better position than either of the
two papers had hitherto been to give the
people of Danville as good morning.
paper and as good an evening paper as
the city Will support, and as a business
proposition it is clearly to the interest
of the Register to follow that course, as
we have no doubt it will do. The Regis
ter will charge a living rate for sub
scriptions and advertising, but it will not
be so unwise as to try a game Of eXtor-
ton, simply because it has a monopoly.
That is the case with every combina-
ton such as is announced from Danville.
That is the condition that every combina-
ton in trade has to confront. If the
trade combine makes itself popular with
the people it will flourish; if it makes it,
self unpopular with the people some other
candidate for popular favor and trade
will undoubtedly spring up.

prevention for that dreaded disease OF
cattle known as blackleg. This mall
ady In some states OF the union de-
stroys more cattle than all other
causes combined. Texas. Kansas. Ne
braska. Colorado and the Dakotas suf-
fer very severely. In fact. over large
part of the beef-raising region there
is a loss OF from 10 to 20 per cent Of
yearling stock annually through this
complaint. 1t appears suddenly in the
shape OF a black swelling. usually on
the hind quarter. and is invariably ia
tai. Having ascertained some time
ago that the disease was caused by
bacterium. the bureau set to work to
prepare a vaccine which Is obtained
from animals that have died of the
complaint. Four years ago $4,000 doses
OF this stuff were sent out by way OF
experiment. and the results obtained
were SO remarkable that 100000 doses
we're distributed in the following year
in response to requests. In the third
year 100000 doses were given away.
and in 1900 over 100000 will be sent

losses by blaekleg to less than one
