PUBLICITY" AND THE TRUST.

FU0AkC44x' AMI 406 A6O04.
1t is said that some prominent fnan-
ciers and so-called trust magnates" who
did not believe at all in the policy of
publishing reports have been quite con.
verted by the good results that followed
the step taken by the Steel Corporation.
The men who have the great industrial
corporations in their hands may discover
in the near future that the country is dis
posed to make a very sharp distinction
between those on the one hand that
dare to make public their financial and
business conditions and methods, and
those on the other hand that prefer to
keep it in the dark. 1t is quite time that
all these great companies should be set
ting their houses in order and making
ready for the day when they will be
expected to do business as Systematically
and correctly as any bank. The fact
should not be overlooked that one
branch OF Congress has already voted in
favor of an amendment to the Constitu-
ton extending the power Of the national
government to include the regulation OF
corporations; and it might be found that
the Senate would also favor such plan.
An amendment to the Constitution
requires a two-third majority in each
House of Congress and subsequent
ratification by three fourths of the States.
Legislation would have to follow to give
practical effect to an amendment, and
thus several years would be required
before the national regulation of corpor-
ations could come about through such a
process. But in any case those corpor-
ations will be in the best position that
not only have little to conceal, but that
are quite ready of their own accord to
disclose their financial condition period
ically to all whom it may concern

western corner of Kansas there had
been found an agricultural country,
comparable to the corn belt in southern
Iowa and the Red River wheat fields of
Minnesota. A few years of test Oh the
part Of the agriculturists who aocked
into that section, demonstrated that the
marvellous richness of soil could not
count against two elements, hot winds
and scarcity of water. No one knows

about how rapidly it was growing, and
Notwithstanding the dry weather, was
not even firing at the roots. It's color
was a dark, healthy green, luxuriant
and tall, and each stalk was clothed
with broad, bending blades, so stately
that every corn-feld seemed like pri-

corn and wheat as were being produced
in sections that had been under profita-
BILE cultivation for many years. From
the time the farmer made his first ap-
pearance in the southwestern counties
of Kansas, he had been replying to the
cattlemen's argument, that the new
comers were spelling a fine range, to make
third-class farms. For while it really
looked as if these arguments had been
answered adversely to the cattlemen by
the great crops produced. The follow
ing year, 1887, was prosperous; 1888 was
fairly so. Then one day in 1889 hot
wind came belching up from the great
southwest, and, after a vigorous cam
