WE have always maintained that the
trust evil was more or less of a bugaboo
held up on election day to frighten the
timid, and that the natural laws of trade,
and the spirit OF enterprise and competi-
ton would not permita really injurious
trust long to exist. The bad trusts will
kill each other. They are now fighting
like cats and dogs. The meat trust is
now engaged in fighting the salt trust, by
going into the salt business itself, The
steel trust, of which Mr.. Carnegie is the
head, is building sl2,OOO,OOO plant Tor
the manufacture of tubing, to knock out
the tube trust. And thus it works. This
sort of warfare ON trusts is more effective
than any legislation. A trust that, by
means of superior brains and facilities,
obtains monopoly Of business because
1t can afford TO undersell all competitors,
is benificial. A trust that is mere COM
bination Of concerns to advance pr ces
beyond normal profit, is a conspiracy
against the consumer, and ought TO be
destroyed.-Pun1'y Spirit.

IN spite of all that has been said against
Senator Quay, it must be admitted that
his vote in the Senate has been rarely re-
corded on the wrong side Of an important
question. Almost always he has sup

Iecting Him to pc liver 'n Adde'S.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. Is. 90 The
trustees Of the university Of Pennsyt
vsnin were surprised to learn that there
was some dissatisfaction among the stu
dents because Of the selection of BishoT
Potter of New York to deliver the ad
dress on University day, Feb. ,. Th,
objection to Bishop Potter is due TO tbs
address made by the Rev. Wayland Hoy
at the meeting a wect aga We" '7'
night. DIR. Hoyt described Philadet
phia as "A sea Of moral corruption and u'
unsafe place for parents to send thcn
sons to college. The students are OF III
opinion that Bishop Potter iudorsed thos'
opinions. and hence the opposition {,
him.
1t is said that the students intend G,
present Il petition to Provost Harriso'
requesting that someone else be suhSti
tuted for the bishop.

A GOOD JOKE,

M. S. Moss, a new bookkeeper at the
Chicago Brass Works, is the sport of
his friends today on account of their
action in declaring to him the re-
sources of Kenosha. Moss arrived in
Kenosha few days ago, and shortly
after, the Brass Works bought large
consignment of oil from the Chicago
Rockford Hosiery Works. The NOV
ing of the oil attracted the attention
of Moss and he questioned as to where
it came from. The boy in the office
declared that it was from an oil well
near the city.
The joke went on for several days
until Moss consented to go and inves-
tigate the oil well. When he found
the men taking the oil from tank he
willingly surrendered, and now he is
not backing all the stories of the re-
sources of Kenosha.

H. A. kupfer Files Suit Against the
Milwaukee Street Railway Com
pany For Death OF Horse.
A QUESTION OF BAD CROSSINGS
Claims That Crossing Was Defective May
Make Several Other Suits Possible
Company Refuses to Settle,

A summons and complaint has been
served on General Manager John /.
Beggs, of the Milwaukee Electric
Light and Street Railway company,
to cause him to make answer to suit
filed by H. A. Kupfer, of this city, to
secure damages for the killing of a
horse which occurred on Feb. 18th, of
this year The suit promises to be
an interesting one and it will open
questions which will probably leave
grounds for other suits against the
company.
The accident which resulted in the
suit occurred at noon on Feb. 18th.
Mrs. John 7. Yule had secured one of
Mr.. Kupfer's horses and had started to
drive to the town of Somers. At the
crossing of the electric railway just
north of the German cemetery the
sleigh was overturned and Mrs. Yule
was thrown out, sustaining injuries
from which she has not yet recovered.
At the same time the horse fell and
broke his leg and it was found neces-
sary to kill him, Mr.. Kupfer laid the
blame for the accident to a defective
crossing. Al the crossing in ques-
ton number of accidents had oc-
cprrsd and the path master Of the
