COURIER

in the importation of German goods of almost $2,000,000 or almost 100 per cent Cuban exports to Germany increased in even greater proportion, jumping from $1, ,754000 for the first eight months to $5,67S000 for the eight months of this year, England made a slight gain in her trade with Cuba during the same period, but most of the other countries, the United States included, lost in the commerce of the island, Spain and France suffering notable recessons.
 The Germans have made their gains legitimately. They have sent many agents to Cuba have learned what the people there need, and have catered to special wants. Direct steamship lines have been established between Germa- ny and Cuba, and regular trips are made to Havana, Santiago, Cienfuegos and other ports. American merchants have apparently made little effort to improve their opportunities in Cuba, but have been content to let matters drift along in the old rut, taking it for granted that everything labelled Amer ican would go there

AN IMpoRrANr MArrnR.

Some misguided and anachronistic members of the Board of Finance have
 been possessed with the notion that the
 meetings of that body should be secret, and that the public should only have such news of the sayings and doings of
 the Board as the misguided and ana chronistic ones thought advisable, This
 notion has afflicted majority of the
 members, and therefore the meetings
 of the Board have been as secret as
 circumstances would permit. As cir cumstances haven't permitted much se- crecy the public has had pretty fair &C., counts of what has been said and done, and it will continue to get the news even if the Board continues to be off, cially and soleninly secret But anoth- meetings of the most important Board in the city government open. J. D. Dewell, Jr., who was not possessed with the secrecy notion at the start, is still unaffiicted with it, and he has offered resolution providing for proper public ity. He is on the right track in this matter, as he has been all along, and it is to be hoped that the Board will abandon it's ridiculous and improper at titude toward the public. We do not suppose that it believes that the public should be damned, but it apparently does believe that the public doesn't need and isn't entitled to know just how the important work of the Board is done. This is not proper or safe notion for public officials to have, and the sooner the Board eschews it the better. If it doesn't eschew it by and by there may be discussion about it which will rival in intensity and interest the discussion which resulted in pulling down the old State house And let it be noticed that though New Haven is long suffering and long -winded the old State house came down.

4 EORTUNATE TOWN.

The people of Middleboro, Massachu- setts, are congratulating themselves
 and each other, and with good reason Thomas S. Pierce, a bachelor and life
 long resident of the place, died, and his will, just probated after disposing of $108, ,000 in private bequests, bequeaths $50, ,OOO to the town for public library, with as much more set apart for it's maintenance. Then the residue of the estate, estimated at from s500000 to s1, ,00o, ,oOO is placed in the hands of three trustees Ito be held as a special trust fund forever, the net income whereof to be paid seml-annually or off, tener, and said trust to be used for the benefit of the town of Middleboro in such manner as said trustees or their successors shall determine" These trustees are to constitute a self-per- petuating board.
 Middleboro has a population of about 1000, and this splendid gift will be a great help to the town in many ways. but it is to be hoped that the trustees wont get the notion of using it chiefly in tearing up old pavements and put ting down new ones for the benefit of contractors.

AN ABSURD AND ILLAGAL LAW.


 The Nebraska antitrust law, which has just been declared unconstitutional most absurd of its kind. It not only aimed to prevent industrial combines but also prohibited insurance companies from forming any compact for the transaction of business or from enter ing into an agreement respecting rates However, 1t exempted from its pro- visions all assemblies of laboring men and others seeking to combine for the purpose of enforcing their demands. Suit was brought by the State in 1897 against certain insurance companies for violation of the antitrust law, and temporary injunction was granted the companies restraining the State from enforcing the law. When it reached the federal court it did not take the judge very long to declare the law un- constitutional, not only because it was class legislation but because it's anti compact feature involved the constitu- tional rights of the parties to make contracts.
 The decision of Judge McPherson of the federal court is regarded as a final death blow to State legislation of this character on trusts, following as 1t does several decisions of like import by State supreme courts.

THE SM 4 RT q 4 RM fl NS AGAIN.

That is rather dsquieting news which comes from Washington to the effect that the trade of Cuba is drifting away from the United States and going in the direction of Germany. The export of Cuban goods to Germany has grown with tremendous strides in the past eighteen months, while the gain in the sales of German goods in the little is land has been even more. marked. In striking contrast is the record of the which shows a decided falling off, espe- ciaily in the export of American goods. In the eight months ending with Feb
 ruary, 1900, we sold s24,4150O0 worth of goods of various kinds to Cuba, and n the corresponding eight months of this year our sales amounted to about S3,- 100000 less. Cuba exported s19,2S6,000 worth of goods to this country during the eight months ending with February, 1900, and during the same period of this year she sold $21, ,OOO worth of her products to us. In the meantime the shipments of goods to Cuba from Ger many has grown heavier and heavier. During the eight months of last year covered by- the report there was gain

Ihe Coming Heroes.

The baseball seasons waning, But coming to the front Are bold and brawny heroes
 Who pass, and run and punt. They're going into training
 To make their muscles strong, And, to the barbers' sorrow,
 They're letting hair grow long. They're rallying for practice, And testing plans and signs To aid them when they're trying To break opponents lines. They're snapping back the pigskin Then sprinting oer the ground Until the panting runner
 Is by his comrades downed. Again the nose of rubber
 Is fastened in its place, Regardless of appearance
 That's given to the face; Again the bands are fitted
 To foreheads, ears and chins, And there are thick protectors Encasing players shins. And often in the evening
 A fearful noise is heard Until by thoughts of murder The nefghborhood is stirred. But some one who is posted All dread and doubt dispels By saying that the players
 Are just rehearsing yells. Yes soon the football heroes Will on the grid appear, And there they'll fiercely struggle While rooters howl and cheer. Again they'll run and tackle And fall with awesome thud, And they'll again be covered With glory and with mud,
