IT is reported that the vast steel and
iron industries of Andrew Carnegie
and the other great manufacturers IN
similar business in the United States
are to be consolidated in one great
company with the enormous capital of
$l,O0O,0O0,000. If this shall be ac-
complished, and there is little reason
to doubt that it will be, this corpora
ton will have practically unlimited
powers. 1t will be stronger than the
government itself, for its influence
will be such that no law will ever pass
Congress that it may desire to prevent
and no individual or set of individuals
will be able to Withstand the pressure
it can manage to bring to bear,
Thoughtful persons are wondering
where this modern system Of CONSOLE
dation may find its limit, and what
shall be the result of the tendency to
give such vast power to a few individ-
uals while the most of humanity is be-
ing reduced to the measure Of autom-
atoms.

ReOsEvELTS APPOINTMENT.

The appointment of Ex-Governor Jones, Of Alabama to
the vacant udgeshp in that state quite surprise to
the Alabama Republicans who bitterly opposed him. The
office is an important one and is very fine plum for any
man to secure. Governor Jones is not Republican and
this party felt that it would be unjust and an insult ia
them to allow him to receive the honor for there are
number of republican lawyers capable of filling the place.
President Roosevelt however, did see in this light
but believing that Mr. Jones the right man for the
place. if he was Democrat, appointed him. From this IT
is evident that the president will make departure from
old established lines in filing Federal offices in the South
Men of ability will only fill these Offices and party lines
will not stand barrier 10 the selection Such plan
calculated to awaken the South to realization of the
fact that the administration will look to our interests
and the plan of the past appointing officers who are OBJ

future The Times heartily endorses such policy and

The committee selected by the planters to interview the
oil mill men of the county in reference to raising the
present prices of cotton seed, made their report,
which appears in full the first page of odays issue
the planters at their meeting in the court house last Tues
day. The1report is very full and asks for higher price
for their seed and until given calls for the planters to
hold their seed if they do so. The comm ttee also
suggests as means of getting higher prices that the
planters build or lease oil mill and operate it them
selves The oil mill claim that with the risk in oil
prces they are paying much for seed as they possibly
can Here the matter rests and the people will watch with
great interest the progress of the fight But all hope that
it will end in satisfactory agreement to both the mills
and planters.

PHILIPPINE FRICTION.

How Army Officers Wives and High
 Officials Are Amusingly Involved.
 T suppose we have stationed 800 local newspaper correspondents in the Phil ippine Islands, said an army officer this morning, in commenting on the letter from the Lewiston (Me.) school teacher. which appeared In the Lewis ton Journal. and has now been publish ed In the Washington Post, much to the amusement of army and official cir cles in this city. The letter is rather bright, and but for obvious, though un- intentional, perversions of fact, would be an important contribution to public knowledge.
 This Lewiston teacher describes the clash between the civil and the mili- tary authorities citing many incidents in point. She writes that the wife of an army officer landed some Chinese servants against the orders of the civil government. When they were sent back by the Taft authorities a cam paign of retaliation began. One side ordered the soldiers off the Luneta, the fashionable promenade, while the other refused to allow the military bands to play there. Gov. Taft wanted to buy some silverware at the commissary and
