PROFITS OF THE TRUSTS.
Ample Proofs that They are Excessive and
Preiudicial to Industry.


In the showing of dividends paid to
its stockholders by the Standard Oil
Company since it gained monopolistic
control of the oil product and market
in this country there is found ample
proof OF the excessive profits possible
to trustism at the expense of the PEG.
pie.
The Standard Oil Company has al
ready paid out in dividends the total
amount of its capitalization several
times over. 1t has just declared an
per cent. dividend, amounting to a
total of $S,OOO,OOO. 1t has thus far
this year declared dividends reaching
an aggregate of 80 per cent, or more
than one.third of its capital stock. 1t
pays more annually in dividends than
all the national banks in the United
States.
This tremendously profitable busi-
ness is costly to the consumer in the
exact proportion that it enriches it's
stockholders. Such vast profits, it is
almost needless to point out, would
not be gained in a field where compe-
tition was possible. The consuming
public would enjoy the benefit arising
from competition. The Standard Oil
Company would have to be content
with a reasonable profit, legitimate
return on its investment. AS condi-
tions exist, however, its profits at the
expense of the consumer are limited
only by its own forbearance. The
consumer must pay the price demand.
ed by the monopoly.
1t is little wonder that the Ameri-
can trusts are glad to contribute vast
sums to keep in power in the govern
ment the political party which pro-
tects and strengthens their monopo-
lies at the expense OF the people. 1t
is little wonder that the people are
wearying of the gigantic tribute which
they are compelled to pay TO the
trusts. What would be wonderful, in
deed, however, will be failure of the
people at the polls next November to
take steps to correct this evil of trust
ism by removing from power the party
of the trusts.

DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM.

Following is the platform adopted
ut the State fusion convention, held
in Seattle, on Aug. 2Sth:
We, the representatives OF the Dem
ocratic, Peoples and SilverRcpublican
parties al tie State of Washington, as
Senhled in juint convention this 18TH
day If August, 1909. respectively real.
firm Our faith in the principles enun-
cia:cd by our respective national con-
yentions; and We pledge our earnest
support to the peerless representatives
OF the people. William Jennings Bryan
and Adlai r Stevenson.
We still believe in the Declaration
OF independence, and therefore hold it
aloft in preference to the imperia!istic
policy of the Republican party.
We oppose trusts and combinations
which corner the products of industry
and levy tribute on the people.
We denounce these twin relics Of
barbarism-imperialism and militar-
ism-whcther i'll the form OF trusts at
home or greed of conquest abroad.
We pledge our representatives in
Congress to work for the passage OF n
measure providing payment for the
time consumed by our State volun-
tcers in the late war with Spain.
We favor just and liberal pensions
to the true and faithful soldiers OF the
United States, including the gallant
Indian war veterans.
We demand such legislation as will
insure to the farmers and producers OF
the State of Washington a reduction
OF freight rates and fares to just
basis.
We demand the Inauguration Of
such measures as shall give the people
the right to express themselves, when
they SO elect, upon all important
questions, by the system known as d.
rect legislation.
We commend the ofiicia! conduct of
all our State officers, and call atten-
ton to the contrast between the pres
ent excellent financial condition of the
State and the blight and ruin prophe-
sled by the opposition to surely result
from the election of our State officers.
We commend the wise, courageous
and patriotic manner in which the
Hon. George Turner, our representa-
tive in the United States Senate, has
defended the honor OF his country and
fulfilled his duty to the people of the
State OF Washington.

that if We take Il pinch of salt, there

II thi, wa> true in the days OF the
great man it chlluu>ly still holds good
in ours. 1t j. now an open secret that

lrvcd, hv 4 regular practice OF gar
cling with salt and water, while the
same mixture /. great help as a
remedy applied outwardly. If the
neck and chest are spongcd every
morning. after the usual additions,
with cold water containing either sea
or coarse salt, it will harden the most
sensitive sufferer. In fact, it would be
impossible to cnumerate III a short
space all the circumstances in which
salt can be used eflicaciously, and in
which it more than repays its slight
cost.
Another common thing" OF the
household, viz, soda, is one OF the best
remedies for govt. Where the knuckles
are swollen and painful, strong solu-
ton OF soda and water applied on rags
overnight will produce wonderfully
soothing effect, and, if regularly pur
sued, the treatment will, after little
time, entirely decrease the swelling
and remove the pain.
Lemon is an excellent cosmetic for
the hands and face, especially where
the water is hard or the summer sun
has been too strong; the juice of
lemon mixed with teaspoonful of sa
volatile, little sugar, and tumbler-
full of absolutely boiling water, taken
at bedtime as hot as it can be borne
will often cure cold. Lemon is also
very effective for washing sponges
which have become Shiny; it is one OF
the best cleansers of brass trays, orna-
mcnts, etc. Mixed with little Full
ler's earth it makes good cleansing
paste for ivory. 1t removes inkspots
(while still fresh) from wood, with or
without the help Of salt, though the
latter is an advantageous accessory if
the spot remains obstinate.

Regulating Street Musicians.

No street music is allowed in Paris
after 6P. NJ. in winter and 9P. M. in
summer, and somewhat similar regu-
lations are in force throughout the
continent. Berlin has granted no
new licenses to organ grinders since
1884, in Difference to the public COM
plants expressed through the news
papers. In Madrid the municipal au.
thorities grant licenses "largely as q
charity" it is not stated to whom.
Even Italy, "where the organ grind
ers come FROM" refuses to allow any
one to make himself into this kind of
public nuisance unless he can show
that he is unable to earn living in
other ways.

To Take Out Stains.

Mildew, iron rust and grease spots
are persistent worries in summer time
to the careful mother. Rub widowed
spots we'll with lemon juice and salt
and expose to a hot sun. The most
delicate fabric will be unframed. The
spots will disappear, says the New
York Herald.
For removing grease spots take
equal parts OF strong ammonia water,
ether and alcohol. To prevent the
ring forming about the cleaned spots,
rub with cloth slightly dampened
with the same solution. In other
words rub out the ring. If the cloth
is too wet it will only make another
one.
Ink spots should be attended to be-
fore they dry to save the garment.
Sponge with milk until all the ink is
removed, and then sponge with ben
zine to take out the grease left by the
milk. Ink spots can be removed from
goods Of which the color will not run
by applying salts OF lemon.
When varnish gets on any garment
the cleansing should be done as soon
as possible. Wet the varnish with
alcohol two or three times and then
sponge off with clean cloth. If the
color has been affected the material
should be sponged with chloroform,
unless the color is blue. Then vinegar
or acetic acid. Heat the mixture
till the soap is dissolved. Then wait
till it is cold before applying. Rub it
we'll over the scorched place, leave to
dry and then put the garment in the
regular washing.
tbs sometimes difficult to remove
large coffee stains. First pour boiling
water through the stain. then dip the
spot in strong ammonia water, rinse in
cold water, and put it out in the sun
to bleach. For tea stains nothing is
needed but plain water.
Often the shrinking effect of rain
drops seem to have ruine'l light silks,
when all that is required is to iron the
silk on the wrong side with a piece OF
muslin between the goods and the
iron.
