MENACE OF TRUSTS.

The opposition which the billion dol
lar steel trust Is meeting in Congress Is
sign of the fight coming between vast
combinations Of capital controlling
some valuable article of trade or neces-
sary OF life and the people who are
compelled to suffer by their exactions.
There are perhaps good trusts and
bad trusts. but the general tendency
OF all these combines Is towards higher
prices and lessening area of employ
ment. When the country was filed
With competing iron and steel mills
prices went as low as the cost of pro-
duction would permit and an army of
men found employment; but If the steel
trust comes to pass, 1t is morally GER
tain that prices will go up and to keep
them up the year round production will
De lessened at intervals and men
thrown out of work.
Between trusts that consolidate man
ufactories and labor-saving machines
which dismiss artisans from the paw
roll. the army of the unemployed is
growing all the while; though FORUM
ately the merely temporary Industries
which last during good times, have
taken them in-such men, at least. as
have not gone to the farms or into
the army or the merchant marine. But
the moment hard times set In again
these hosts will be turned into the
street. and after that, the deluge. Well
may it be if America has enough insu-
lar fighting to do to absorb the most
of the elements that might otherwise
inspire great civil connections.
Despite the record Of the late quad
rennial campaign, the people are OPP
posed to trusts and will surely crush
them. He will lie fortunate man who
runs for President during the next per-
Tod of financial stringency on an anti
trust platform.

The poor little Bulletin, which got out
a Rio extra with no news in ia burfco
trick which it now and then performs
to it's dwindling clientele-is disturb
ed about the seven-column extra is
sued by the Advertiser. What hurts
1t the most is that the sales of the
Advertiser extra kept up all day and
were particularly lively after the regu-
lar edition of the little make-believe
newspaper had appeared. The loss of
nickels was quite a consideration, too,
for in the days of it's want, nickel
from anywhere, whether at the price Of
it's Republicanism, it's pledges or of
common sense, counts for all the differ
ence bets zen keeping alive and going

A Liz liter Stock Year.

Despite the fact that, since the cleo
ton, business on the New York Stock
Exchange has been larger than at any
time in the institutions history, 1900's
record does not equal that of 1899. The
figures of transactions given out by an
official show that the sales or listed
stock for 1900 amounted to about 1885,
5000 shares, against 120,622, 900 shares
the preceding year; unlisted stock, a.
100000 shares, against So, 345, 900 shares,
while the par value of State and rail-
road bonds dealt in was S547 900 600, as
compared with s741, 357 900.

PADDLED FOR CREASING HIS
TROUSERS.

William McFadden, a Hardin county,

wearing creased trousers. He demand
ed of the guard that he be supplied
with fresh creased trousers each day
and became SO insulting because he was
not furnished with the dudish outfit
that the guard reported him for infrac

Forest Fire Wardens,

Systematic protection of the forests

larger in proportion to its size than
that of any other middle State The

British Appreciation.

The new Washington" says an
English writer in the London Specta-
tor. lis clean and beautiful. 1t is
doubtful whether any such delightful
residential street as Massachusetts
avenue IS to be found on the globe.
American domestic architecture is as
successful as public architecture is
expensive and often bad, but In these
Washington avenues it is carried to
the height of comfort and beauty. The
green, well-watered, fenceless lawns.
the grouping of gables and oriels the
pretty porches and exquisite trees and
mowers combine to give most delight
full series of pictures. There is not the
ostentation of New York or Chicago.

The Magnan1mous ma gistrate.

A recent example Of the methods of
administering justice in the New York
police courts is edifying. A man CAME
before Police Magistrate Cranes court
there the other day charged with a
petty oftense, whereupon the following
colloquy ensued between the magis-
trate and the prisoner. Said the magis-
trate:
Don't you remember me?"
The prisoner said he did not.
I'm Leroy B. Crane. 1 did some
work for you about fifteen years ago,
when l was practicing law. You never
paid me. I'll treat you with more con-
sideration now. You were engaged in
real estate business and had a suit
about skating rink In Harlem, and
L won 1t for you and you f1eeced me

now. I'll return good for evil"
Thereupon the prisoner was magnin-
imously requested to depart In peace.

NEW YORK, July 8.-The report that

Barley said:
1--WE have received orders for plans

German emperor. The design and
other dimensions have been left to our
own ideas, and nothing has been said
about them.
1--WE expect to have the plans and
specifications ready in about six weeks.
Then they will be submitted to the ma
val attache of the German embassy at
Washington, and after their approval
tenders will be advertised for in the
usual way. What builder will have the
construction of the yacht will depend
upon whose bid is accepted, but the
yacht will be entirely of American de-
sign and build. We expect to have

HOW FORT MONROE WAS BUILT

The manner of constructing the fort
at Old Point Comfort is interesting, and
throws some light on customs and
practices then in vogue. The work
was almost wholly done by slaves, who
were brought to the place by their mas
ters and leased to the engineers in
charge. The slave owner received 5
cents day for each slave and the Gov
eminent furnished each 'Iaborer," as
the slave was called, with two suits of
working clothes, a pair or two of shoes,
rations, quarters and occasionally
little tobacco. The ''laborers'' work
ed with very little clothes and general
~ without shoes. They lived in bar
racks and were subject to kind of
military discipline. The owners were
regular in coming to collect the hire
for their slaves, from which we may
infer that the Constituents of those
days knew how to appreciate a good
thing to degree worthy of the present
generation.-Leslie's Monthly.

A TEMPEST IN A TEAPOT.

The Augusta Chronicle expresses the
sentiments of the Times Recorder in
the following timely editorial
''The fuss that has been made about
a few students of the Georgia School
of Technology taking strikers places
in the Southern Railway shops, is a
striking illustration of a tempest in a
teapot. We have never questioned the
right of labor to organize, nor of ma
chinists to strike; but we do insist that
when striker voluntarily lays down
his job, he has no right to stand at the
door with club, and say that no man
shall do the work which he refuses to
perform.
"Any man has right to offer for the
position that has been vacated, and
the employer has right to set him to
work.
ga student of the chronological In
stitute, in vacation time, is free
and independent agent, and has a
right to accept work wherever he can
get it. The faculty has no right to
say that he shall not, and it is absurd
for labor unions to talk about fighting
the school because of the action of Ger.
tain students.
"The students should go ahead
with their work wherever they CAL
obtain it, and the institute should
not make itself ridiculous by paying
any attention to the matter, or by
permitting politicians working for the
labor vote to create excitement over /
very trivial matter
