A Profitable Business.

Louisville Courier-Journal.
The immense profits that have accrued
TO the syndicates which have managed
the great railroad reorganizations of tho
past few years are limited at in the amount
of property left by the late Charles II.
Coster Mr.. Costers will was probated

Philadelphia Inquirer
But why think of nothing except strikes?
Here Is the Palmyra Record actually ask
ing, why do women get of the cars the
wrong way?"
Many a time and often the Inquirer has
asked the same question without receiving
any satisfactory reply. Perhaps it is be-
cause she wants to be contrary. Perhaps
because her heels are placed upon tho
wrong end of her shoes. Perhaps because
her shoes are too small and she cannot ac-
cept the impetus of the alighting
At any rate that is what she does, and
she herself has not yet had the courage
or the candor to tell the reason why.

Starved Into IdleneSs,

Lafayette Journal
The prosperity campaign will not be very
popular In Pennsylvania, where 10000 men
have been starved into idleness, chiefly
because the Republican officials OF that
State dare not enforce the laws against
trusts. The constitution Of Pennsylvania
forbids any mining company to engage In
freight transportation yet the coal roads
and the coal mines are Identical in owner
ship-and the people have been trodden
under foot till their only means Of resist
ance IS a strike.
