pooTons DIFFER.

The millennium will really be near
when the learned medicine men
should agree in diagnosing a case OF
sickness. Take the following two
instances. Dr. Davis was called to
see Sam Kuaole, a Hawaiian, who
was very "sick," and reported as fol-
lows: "Pulse less, unconscious,
slight swelling in both iuguiual re-
gions, suspicious"
Other doctors were sent to the al
legged suspect and the report given
on their behalf reads: From Ma.
noa valley, age 40, pulse 1C0, tenn
perature normal, a good, big drunk" !"
1t is needless to say that Mr.. Kua-
ole is all right now and ready for
another big, good drunk, or perhaps
willing through fear to swear off.
Then we have the case of II. NJ
Levy, who was taken to the plague
hospital from the Hawaiian Hotel,
an action which caused panic
among the guests and a serious loss
to the proprietor. No diagnosis in
Levy's case has yet bsen given by
the plague doctors but great mys-
terry has surrounded his case and
that of rabbit which died after be.
ing inoculated with blood from
Levy. The owners of the Hotel
asked DIR. McGrew to visit Levy and
express an opinion, and his report
reads as follows:

Gentlemen:-In answer TO your re-.
quest by note of this morning,

who is lying ill in that institution.

porting him very much better to-

outside reports that his case is one
of plague. From what l learn from
DR.. Hoffman, of the young mans
symptoms throughout and my per-
sonal examination in company with
the doctor at the bedside of Mr..
Levy, l feel satisfied that it is a
peculiar type of pneumonia not
commonly met with. understand
that Mr.. Levy was taken to the pest
house at his own request, he fearing
it might be mething Of the nature
of plague at present. In this l feel
that DR.. Hoffman, fully concurs
with me, but does not feel inclined
to diagnose the case further at the
present stage of the disease. Mr..
Levy has every attention given him
by the doctor, who is very much in
terested in his case. He has good
nursing, proper food and was very
comfortable at the time of my visit.
Very respectfully,

A SHORT SERMON.

To give advice TO the young peo-

is sometimes the duty OF those who

bought experiences which the old
stagers have stored in the knobs
empty or otherwise which fill out
their hats.

s,.ed Of Pioneer ocean Liner..

The Britannia, the pioneer vessel OF
the Cunard company, was built on the
Clyde in 1910, and she and three sister
ships averaged a speed of sH knots an
hour. In a race between the first
American ship, the Washington, and
the Britannia the British vessel won by
two days. With the inauguration of
the Collins line in 1850 the Cunard COM
pany met with keen competition, but it
held its own, and in 1855 it added the
Persia to it's fleet, and she averaged q
speed of 1871 knots per hour--which
eclipsed every previous performance by
any steamer. The average length of
passage from Liverpool to New York
was then ~ days.

leaders to labor troubles in the past
four years. They declare that his in
terest in settling the miners strike at
this time is purely political one.
They are entirely right. Hanna has
always been the enemy of organized
labor. He wrecked the Lake Seamen's
union, of Cleveland. by his arbitrary
and unreasonable attitude toward men
who were only asking living wages and
fair conditions of labor. 1t is too late
for Hanna to pose as friend of the Ia
boring man. His. record is too well
known.
Judge w. A. Day. auditor of the treas
ury under President Cleveland, has
written letter to Chairman Richard
son, of the democratic congressional
committee, in which he scores Hanna
for asking the country to "Trust Nc
Kinley" to deal with the trusts.
Judge Day declares that McKinley's
attorney general deliberately refused
to enforce the Sherman antitrust law.
even after the supreme court of the
United States declared that the Trans
Missouri Freight association and sim
liar combines were criminal associa-
tions.
In the Trans-Missouri case the su-
preme court decision was filed is days
after Mckinley was elected. 1t only
remained for the attorney general to
direct the punishment. This was never
done. The Joint Traffic association was
another trust which came under the
jurisdiction of the Sherman law. Pres
idsnt Mckinley and his attorney gen.
eral refused to enforce even the anti
trust law already in existence.
If President Mckinley has not done
his plain duty in relation to trusts in
the past four years. the people have no
reason to trust him for another term
of Office.

A Gigantic Conspiracy to Rob the
Farmers of the United
States.

Z. r. DOWie, member OF the execu-
tive committe of the National Demo
cratic Travelling Mems association,
and of the Commercial Travellers Anti
Trust league, arrived in Chicago few
days ago. He has just completed an
extensive tour of Missouri, Nebraska
and Iowa.
II have recently discovered" said
Mr.. Dowie, "a gigantic conspiracy to
rob the farmers of the country. This
latest product of monopoly includes
in it's membership about 600 big grain
dealers and elevator men in the terri
tory extending from st. Paul on the
north to Kansas City on the south, in
Guiding the states of Wisconsin, Min
nesota, North and South Dakota,
Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas.
''All of the 600 and more members OF
this newest thing in trusts, are
pledged to buy grain at one and one
half cents low, that is below the cash
price, and to store for not less than
one and one-half cents profit. The as
ISOLATION engineering the scheme is to
fix the selling price. Forty per cent.
of the profits are to go to the asocia-
ton. the balance going to the dealers
who are parties to the swindle.
"Grain dealers in the sections where
the trust is at work have been in
duced to sign contracts and regular
system of inspection guarantees
against cutting prices. Grain stations
are established here and there, and at
each station the trust has an agent
who has authority to inspect the
books of any member of the associa-
ton. A membership fee of $50 is
charged. fine of 500 is imposed if
the agreement is broken. and $50 is
charged for reinstating member who
has violated any of the terms Of the
pact.
ION its part, the association guaran-
tees the grain dealers who enter into
the agreement protection from
changes in ownership of elevators
where they may have their grain
stored. If an elevator attempts to
break away or to run independent,
they guarantee to have it's supply of
cars shut off, so that it cannot ship
grain to market in opposition to the
trust.
''Since I have discovered the conspir-
acy, few days since, / have been
collecting information concerning it.
1 ascertained to-day that the pro-
moter and organizer of the trust is an
ardent republican and superintendent
of one of the largest elevators in the
country.
''The practical workings of this
combination to rob the farmer are not
difficult to see. BY getting all the
grain dealers of community enrolled
as members, it is impossible for the
farmers of that section to sell to any
one outside the trust or to ship their
grain away. They must stand the
loss of a cent and a half a bushel on
the price of their grain in order te
find a market. I am not ready to give
the namea. but will do so soon"
1t is said that the new movement tc
