berent treachery of these people makes
their use against the native forces a
soubtful expedient. as their liability 70

o,,en shown when with the Spanish

that difHculty would be OOviated IN
transporting them to China for service
against the Boxers. We have as YET
secured little benefit from our new ae-

scheme there are great possibilities
The fearful news now coming from
china calls for prompt and decisive
action. and If the allied powers IN

American Economist
Many people must have wondered at
the tremendous hullaballoo made by
democratic speakers and newspapers
over the trusts or industrial comblna-
lions. 1t is perfectly well known to the
public tha, many men who are prOmi-
nent in the leadership Of that party
are engaged in the promotion and man
agement of Just such enterprises as
are so unsparingly denounced by its
mouthpieces. The Ice Trust OF New
York City is merely one OF the many H.
Illustrations easily given (probably one
OF the worsO Such ineongruity Of
position between the party and num-
Der OF its leaders tends to throw suspi-
cion upon the sincerity of the outcry.
The course of the leaders in congress
and out confirms that suspicion. The
question Of how to deal with industrial
and commercial combinations. to ascer-
tain which are innOcuous and which are
injurious to the public veal and there
fore proper subjects for restraint, and
what remedies to apply. is admittedly a
complex and difficult one. 1t could fair
ly be demanded Of a party that was
constantly denouncing all manner of
combinations that it should present an
efficient remedy; that. indeed. its dag
nosis and proposed treatment should be
so clear and complete as to command
easy comprehension. if not general as
sent "
About the only remedy proposed by
the Democrats has been to repeal the
tariff laws applicable to the goods Of
ali trusts or combinations. Beyond
that simple panacea the physicians
Of that school are dumb. 1t has been
repeatedly shown to them that similar
trusts or combinations flourish and
make higher prices in England. where
they have no protective tariff at all,
than here. but our democratic friends
stick % their one proprietary medicine
with logged insistence.
In congress recently the republicans,
pursuing a constructive policy as usual,
prepared a bill for the regulation of in
dustrial combinations. This bill was
not of the skyrocSet order. but proposed
the exercise Of indisputable powers.
and, if enacted into law. would be pretty
sure to impose an effective check upon
the arbitrary smotherirg Of competition
and the undue enhancement Of prices.
Probably the bin represented the ex-
tent of the Federal power, but it did
not tinker the tariff. and 10! the six
democratic members Of the committee
having the bill in hand voted solldly
against it.
After that and similar performances,
Of what use are protestations of hostil-
ity TO trusts? Apparently. the position
Of the opposition party is merely one Of
opposition. If its leaders would but
make candid confession Of aim and
purpose it might read like this:
I'VE are knee deep in trust stocks
gas. electricity. traction. steel, ice. etc
but We have got to have a party cry
We must cuss something. The Philip
pine war is over; the Porto Rico incident
didn't pan out much for us; the imper-
lalism bugaboo has collided with past

George E. karstens, a young man from
Los Angeles, Cal, arrived in the city Fri
day. afternoon on a bicycle. He left yes
terday morning for Sedalia. He is riding
across the continent on a bicycle and he
says he is hugely enjoying the trip. The
trip IS not being made TO break any road
record or on a wager but Mr.. Karsten
simply adopted this method Of travel for
pleasure alone. He left his home IN Los
Angeles on April p, and after stopping at
several points on the way, made the dis
lance TO Wichita IN just f0rty-eight days.
Some days. when the weather was cool
and the roads good. the cycle tourist rode
ninety miles in a single day. He believes
he can average that number of miles when
in active work. but not including stop
overs. From here he went 70 Sedalia.

q task II was, but I an glad 10 say that
We are making excellent progress. We
are getting information concerning every
one and when the census is completed 1

IL answer to q question n regard to
the system used, Mr.. Morse continued:
I have divided my territory into three
hundred and hfty-fve districts and have
an enumerator working in each district
In Wichita there are sixteen districts.
and the enumerators are getting along
nicely. I hope by the first Of next week
20 have everything completed here and
about the first Of July the first blanks
will be sent on TO Washington. and the
Wichita blanks viii be among them. No
information regarding the population of
any city in the district will be given
until the reports are all in as ii is pro-
hibited BY the authorities at Washing
ton"
Mr.. Morse in talking also said that
many amusing things have been report
ed by the enumerators. IN some places
# IS very hard TO make the people under
stand regarding the information 70 be
given. especially among the foreign-born
population.
There has been considerable complaint
regarding the enumerators not getting
Information concerning people who are
out Of town, and concerning citizens not
leaving the questions with neighbors
when leaving.
While here last night Mr. Morse in
structed the enumerators TO use every
means in their power to get the necessary
information regarding people who ara
away at present, and when asked about
this. he replied that It would not be such
a difficult matter as the people OF Wich-
tia were willing 20 assist the enumerat-
ors in every possible way. This matter
has been remedied and there IS expected
10 be no further trouble
