TRUSTS AND SOCIALISM.

Mr. Monnett, ex-attornoy-general Of
Ohio, suggests. in the New York World,
that the combination OF three Of the
greatest producers Of raw material, and
OF seven Of the producers OF the finished
product OF the steel industries, will
blaze the way for governmental owner
ship Of the transportation companies,
and arouse among laborlng men a de-
mand for cooperation.
He bases this supposltlon on the fact
that such combinations cannot exist
without levying upon consumers an UNI
natural tax. by excessive charges for
the product, And this will affect every
body, from the woman that uses a pot
or kettle, to the patron Of the railroad
or street car. He predicts that the COM
blne will speedily array the great mid
die class against It, and that 1t will
fall Of its own weight.
The statement Is not without inter-
est, particularly II taken In connection
with the fact that the ranks OF socialists
are filing up rapidly, as new industrial
combinations are being created. The
United States. however, Is not the only
country, where such trusts flourish,
Mr.. Harmsworth says Great Britain is
plastered over with them, They are the
natural outgrowth Of prevailing indus
trial conditions. And II Is not lmpossi-
bic that the process Of combining will
continue. until there is practically but
one great combine and II that time ever
comes. It Is clear enough that the con-
troll must be vested in the government.
II can hardly be supposed that this
contamination Is Immediately at hand.
Such an order Of things-as has been
pointed out by John Stuart Mill-re-
qaires in the great mass Of people quail
tiles, both moral and intellectual, that
must be acquired and tested before they
can be put to practical use, In the an
Client Hebrew state government control
prevailed TO the extent that property
In lands that might change hands, was
returned ana redstributed every ff-
tieth year; at that time debts were al
SO wiped out. and slaves set free. But
IN modern times other ideas Of the
rights OF individuals have prevailed. and
any return to common control OF private
interests must OF necessity be slow,
even IL the desirabillty Of It were adj
mitted. The many failures in comun-
ism, cooperation, socialistlc enterprises
are so many evidences Of the gigantic
work before those who desire a radica!
change in the present Industrial, econo-
mic and social conditions of the world.

MEN AND WOMEN.

The statement made some time ago
by a Colorado critic OF woman suffrage,
to the effect that It had proved IAN UNI
mixed cvll' is widely commented on A
contributor to the Independent takes a
rather pcsslmistic view. He says;
III women are to have the same edu-
cation and ideals, the same employ

and feelings, their tastes and manners
and even their features and figures, Will

ment to render them desirable or love-
~"
1t can probably not be denied that
masculine occupation and interests
have a tendency TO efface the special
feminine beauty with which woman
has been endowed by nature. At least
this apears to be the fact in oriental
countries. There the poorer classes OF
women are often condemned to hard la
Dor. They VIII carry the water, often
long distances. attend to all the du-
ties in the house. and perhaps even
help the donkey, or the COW, to pull the

upper classes whose wants are all sup

bear out the surmises Of the writer in
the Independent.
1t may be said, however, that there
Is no probability of the American wo-
man, as rule, ever becoming the slave OF
masculine education and ideals, sports,
occupations and aspirations to the ex-
tent that she will endanger her woman
ly charms. A few may do so. But the
majority will have sense enough to
follow the path clearly indicated by the
Supreme Intelligence, to which both
man and woman owes existence, well
knowing that the plans laid by God
cannot be improved upon by mortal
man. American womanhood is in no
particular danger from the possible
excentrcltes Of few. There may be
masculine women az there are feminine
men. But these are exceptions, and no
menace - American womanhood and
manhood

SALT LAKES MORTALITY.

One very gratifying bit OF informa-
ton In the official report, made by
Mayor Ezra Thompson to the City
Council, Is the small mortality for the
year 1900, The percentage Of deaths
is lower for that year than for any Of
the ten years preceding. 1t is given as
11.3i In 1900, while In the preceding
years named 1t ranged from 1853 TO
8i5s.
In view OF the attempts TO alarm the
country as to the health situation here,
these figures concerning Salt Lake City,
furnished by the Mayor are Of great
value. and put the matter in very diff
ferent light to that presented in the
false reports so Injurious to business.
There are many other points in the
Mayors report that are well worthy
OF public consideration. The statistics
furnished are official, and may be used
for reference as occasion requires, but
the figures as to the percentage Of
ueulnS ihst year. NViiP"iNN "'t"
previous years, are so marked and
favorable as to cause surprise as well
as pleasure, when we think Of the
alarms that have been raised without
just occasion.
The cvll impression that has been
created ought surely to be removed by
this official report. and the general pub
lie ought TO be informed of the fact
that the death rate OF Salt Lake City,
for the last year Of the nineteenth CEN
tury, was but little over ii per cent
Of the population gratifying de-
crease in the list OF mortality for
