The WORKING MAN.

BY John r.. Barrett.
He lays his hand upon the stubborn soil.
And, 10! II mighty miracle Is done;
II glows, responsive to his touch Of toll,
Fruitful and fair beneath the golden
sun.
At his behest the prairie Is transformed;
He digs the desert anl It disappears:
Before his plow the wilderness is stormed.
And leagues of corn lift up their splen-
did spears.
Amid his sheaves ne stands happy man,
Nor seeks to solve the things beyond his
ken: 4t
Content with the All-wisc. Eternal plan
or him VINO shapes the destinies of men.
To him the crowded city looks for food:
From him gaunt famine fees and squal-
or hides;
His energies sustain the multitude
And where his blessings fall pale want
subsidies.
For him the sun and stars give forth
their light:
For him the restless ocean ebbs and
flows;
For him the radiant day. the peaceful
And all things beautiful their charms
He builds the mighty ship whose progress
spurns
The roaring tempest on the trackiess
sea:
His strenuous life the wheels Of COM
merce turns
And cleaves wider space for liberty.
Oh. wonder-working toll! Gods sift TO
man,
What blessings follow where thou art
In strict accordance with the Masters
plan,
And what disasters where thou art de-
MED!
And may God keep the toiler free and
brave,
From petty tyranny or clique or clan
THAT seeks TO dwarf his soul and TO en-
slave
The free-born spirit OF the working
man!

SEVEN BILLIONS IN TRUSTS.

In general view OF the trust question
In Its relation TO the Presidential cam
paign The Saturday Evening Post p/-
sents q number OF interesting facts and
figures. According To the only semi-offi-
cial statements the trusts formed In this
country In recent years hake capitaliza-
tions that produced the almost incredible
total OF over seven billions OF dollars.
The Saturday Evening Post gives a list of
thirty combinations each OF which has a
capitalization of over fifty millions OF
dollars. Al says:
These thirty combina tions arc credit
ed with capital amounting to two and
one-third billions of dollars. The entire
general stock of money OF all kinds In
the United States. gold. silver. notes and
certificates, amounts to about s.. 700, 900
900. So that IL all the four hundred COM
bines In the list should try TO turn their
capitaiizations into cash they would use
up every penny OF the nations money
and then have only about forty per cent
OF their demands. Indeed, the thirty corr
porations mentioned would nearly use up
all our cash. or course. we know that
business Is transacted mostly on credit
and this gives an entirely different view
of the case, but the comparisons show
the real financial hugeness OF the modern
combinations.
Congress and twenty-nine OF the
States have passed laws expressly de-
signed and constructed to prohibit trusts
and yet the trusts have increased more
rapidly since these laws were passed and
grown more In capitalization than ever
before I'm the country's history.
"a great trouble is the lack of unifor-
nifty In the various laws. For instance
New Jersey, delaware and West Virginia
deliberately loosened and broadened their
Incorporation laws In order TO increase
the income OF the State government by
the fees. At the same time Massachu-
setts, which is said TO have the best cor
poration laws i'm the country. has state
commissioner of corporations TO examine
and approve the certificate Of organiza-
ton. and compels every corporation To
pay I'm the whole amount OF its capital
stock before IL can begin business. and

SUBDUINo A WILD HORSE.

The main reason why Hamlin Garlapds =
accounts OF plain and prairie life, OF men
and things I'm the far West, are accepted
as authentic is that he has been through
II all. In The Eagles Heart, which Is
now appearing i'm the Saturday Evening
Post. he gives the following account OF
how a horse was subdued:
"Mose refused TO allow his shining,
proud-necked stallion to be roped and
thrown, and asked the boys to help drive
him into a strong corral. together with
five or six other horses. This was done,
and stripping himself as for race,
Nose entered the corral and began walk
ing rapidly round and round, following
the excited animals. Hour after hour he
kept this steady, circling walk, till the
other horses were weary, till kintuck
ceased TO snort, till the blaze of excite
ment passed out OF his eyes, till he
walked with a wondering backward
glance, as IL to ask: 'Two-legged crea-
ture, why do you so persistently follow
me?
"The cowboysjeered at first, but after
a time they began to marvel at the dog
ged walk OF the youth. They gathered
about the walls of the corral and laid bets
on the outcome At the end of the third
hour Kintuck walked with mechanical
air, all the fire and fury gone out OF
approach him closely, almost near enough
TO be touched. AT the end OF the fourth
hour he allowed Nose to lay his hand on
his nose, and Nose petted him and went
TO dinner. Odds stood in Moses favor
as he returned TO the corral. He was
covered with dust. At last, when all the
other horses had been turned loose, Kin
tuck, trembling and with a curious stare
In his eyes, again allowed Nose to lay
his hand on his nose. He shrank away
but did not wheel. II was sunset. and
the horse was not merely bewildered; he
was physically tired. The touch OF his
masters hand over his eyes seemed to
subjugate him, to take away his will.
when Nose turned to walk away the
horse followed him as though drawn by
some magnetic force. and the herders
looked at each other I'm amazement.
Thereafter he had but 10 be accus-
toned to the bride and saddle. He had
