ORGANISMS
FROM THE COMMONER"

The Iowa Republican convention ''resoluted"
against trusts. UP to date, the trusts have not
shown any symptoms of heart failure.
Considering the fact that Historian" Mac
lays wage is $2.4S per day, the public is in
clined to wonder what the extra $2..1S is for.
Those San Francisco smelter robbers failed
to make their steal plant profitable. They
should have engineered things SO as to secure
protection for their industry.
TO the warring South American republics:
Beware, les, Uncle Sam intervene. If he ev
does, 'maniiest destiny" will prepare your hn-
ish if Uncle Sans present managers retain
their hold.
''We assert the sovereignty of the people
over all corporations and aggregations of capi-
ta," saws the Iowa Republican platform.
platform makers can say.
The steel trust is capitalized for 81 700, ,ooo,-
600, and arbitrarily fixes prices and wages so as
to pay dividends ou that enormous sum. But
what is the assessed value for taxation purposes
of the steel trusts property?
The federa Judge who sent a striker to Jail
for asking fellow laborer to stand by him
would shudder violently at the idea of sending
to Jail trust Inagnate who asked another trust
magnate to stand bv him under similar condl-
tions.
The Chicago man who exists without stom-
ach doubtless gives the trust reason to hope
that in time it will be able to employ labor
cheaper than ever, because labor can afford to
work for little or nothing it stomachs do not
need to be filed.

Donations by Corporations.
". Young IN the Kansas Populist.

Senator II. W. Young the Kansas Popuis
Very frequ emily, of late, have come across
lauda,ions of railroad and other great corpora
tions for their iberality in making donations 10
public enterprises. There are two views of
this matter, however. The road agents of the
middle ages and the robber barons who made it
practice to take neavy toll from every travel
Ter who passed thei- way were among the most
liberal of men. They contributed to the sup
port of the clergy and of religious institutions,
and they relieved every case of destitution
brought to their attention. Coming down to
recent times, can rem ,Inber that, in the palm
lest days of the Tweed ring, when the city
government of New York waa even more cor
1upt and rotten than it is now, the political
bosses took care of the poor and saw to it that
no one suffered for bread in their districts In
fact, it has been the invariable rule in all his
tory that those who get money unjustly try to
curry favor with the people and create public
sentiment in their own behalf by being ex-
trem ly liberal in their disbursements. Whether
that is always the conscious motive, or whether
it is due to prickings of conscience that the great
,highwaymen of the world to-day, like John D.
Rockefeller, bestow millions in charity and in
the endowment of educational institutions, the
fact remains that the wealth acquired with the
greatest ease and for the least equivalent i'll

for public purposes and i'll private charity.

terest, but do say that no amount of public
spirited distribution of their income should
blind us to the arbitrary and unjust methods by
which they obtain so much of it-nOr to the
influence they exercise over state officials and
Legislators to secure the continuation of the
privilege of plundering and release from their
due proportion of the burdens of taxation.
Justice is demanded before generosity. Corpo-
rations that can set their own scale of profits
are not deserving of unstinted praise because
they give away in Libraries and college endow-
ments some of the fruits of The monopoly they
exercise Tyrants have often been generous,
hut that is no reason why we should seek to
multiply the breed. 1t is better that the cti-
zen should have the f,nit; of his labor, even if
.,r spends them foolishly, than that some cor
porat,on should rob him of them TO spend them
never so wisely.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

A boat four thousand years old has been
brought to New York from Egypt. The motive
of those who brought it over is not known, but
perhaps they expect to hold it until Uncle Sam
gets into another war, and then sell it to him
for use as an army transport.
During the 'dark Democratic days. of 1895,
the Republican organs shed barrels of bitter
ink over the woes of the wool-growers, who
had been ''ruined" by free WOOL But in Au-
gust, 1895, medium-g grade wool was quoted at
from I6 to "a cents on the Boston market.
Wool is now protected" to the limit, yet,
strange to say, medium-grade wool in August
of 1901 is quoted en- the Boston market at from
II to II cents. Has the Dingley law slipped
another cog?
The United States district attorney announces
that he does not think that Neelv, the Repub-
lcan politician charged with Cuban frauds, can
be convicted. 1t has been discovered that there
is no authority to require witnesses to 60 to
Cuba to testify against Nicely, and the Witnesses
decline to 60. 1t will be remembered that dur
ing the campaign, it was repeatedly stated by
Republican politicians that the prosecution of
Nicely would be carried on with all possible
vigor. At the same time, however, it was free
ly predicted that Neely would not be convicted.
These predictions appear to nave had good
foundation.

NO GAME AT CLEVELAND.
Pitcher Patten May BE Released by
Manager Manning.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, May H.-When
the Washington team arrived in Cleve-
land this morning they brought with
them a cold wave, accompanied by a
heavy rainstorm, with the result that
there was no game this afternoon, making
the second postponed game here this sea-
son. Manager Manning was glad that no
game could be played, as the cold
weather would have put his entire team
in bad shape, for he was afraid of sore
arms and bad muscles. 1t is clearing up
this evening, and the chances are bright
for game tomorrow.
Manning is confident of taking two out
of the three games from Cleveland, and
said this evening that the Senators would
win the majority of the games on the
trip. AS his team, with the exception OF
Catcher Grady, is in the best of condi-
ton, he has a good chance to win out.
Grady is suffering from a bad knee as q
result of a collision with the grandstand
at Washington on Monday in going after
a foul
There are many rumors afloat this even
ing that Pitcher Patten will become a
member of the Cleveland club before the
week is over Manager McAleer has made
a bid for him, and Manning is seriously
considering the offer. 1t all depends on
Patten. as he has the final say.
Outfielder o Brien, who was released by
Washington last week, viii also come to
this city to take Genins' place at centre.
He has accepted the Cleveland clubs Of

OH the part of their Eastern friends, Sc
cured their first run. IN the fourth they
added three more. Their opponents were
successfully retired in the one-two-three
order Up to the sixth inning the East
erns had not secured as much as a scratch
hit, but in that inning a young athlete,
named Fitzpatrick, stepped up to the
plate, who thought Ii was up to him TO
break the monOtony of the proceedings.
This he did by making a long drive in
the direction of left field, where kengla
was unable to loC1te 1t until he had made
two bases. Once on the base he could not
rest until he had stolen third, scoring on a
passed ball, making the first run for his

FIVE runs. In the sixth they scored an
other, and added one more in the seventh.
Both sides played fine ball in the last two
innings, but the Victors, who were not yet
satisfied, made one more run.

A BIG FIRE AT RossLYN.
The Packing House and stable of n
Brewery Destroyed,

over 10000 citizens were attracted over
the Aqueduct Bridge last night by
disastrous ire On the Virginia side of the
river. which threatened at first to destroy
the big building OF the Consumers Brew
ing Company, together with many of the
smaller buildings in the vicinity.
The fire was first discovered by an en-
ploye of the brewing company named
Monahau. who saw flames bursting
through the roof of the Rosslyn Packing
Company's building which is within a
short distance of the brewery company
establishment. He ran to the te' 'sphone
and No Engine Company was sent for,
but owing to ;he fact that the fire was
out Of the jurisdiction of the District au
thorities Assistant Foreman Bushel' first
asked permission of Fire Chief Belt be-
fore responding.
The flames in the meantime were
spreading rapidly. and grave fears were
entertained for the safety Of the buildings
in the vicinity. 1t became necessary Tor
constable who was present to swear in
n force of deputies in order to keep the
increasing crowd from the danger line.
Considerable excitement was caused
when the horses Of the packing company,
together with those OF the brewing com
pany, were turned out of the stables The
animals frightened by the roar of the
flames and blinded by the smoke endeav-
ured to dash out of the gateway of the
courtyard in which they were confined,
and were only prevented from doing 50
by the quick work of the brewery en-
pIoyes Several Of the stable hands were
slightly injured by being trampled upon
by the animals, and one man whose name
il was impossible to secure is said to be in
a serious condition as the result Of having
been kicked.
The flames grew with such rapidity and
the heat became so intense that IT was
decided TO let the horses go out of the
courtyard, and as the gateway was
thrown open about sixty head of horses
scattered in all directions. Luckily no
one was injured The animals had not
been caught up to a late hour.
BY vigorous work Foreman Bushell and
his men of No. engine company got the
flames under control, but not before the
packing house and stables had been en-
tirely destroyed.
Edwin Schneider, President of the Ross
lyn Packing Company, was present dur
ing the fire and stated that the loss to
his company would be about 5000 or
Sc GOO. all of which is fully covered by in
Surance.
The building of the Consumers Brew
ing Company was only slightly damaged
Great credit was given the men of the
engine company present by Mr.. Schneider
for their arduous work in saving from
being destroyed many of the buildings IN
the vicinity. and it is expected that their
efficient services Will be brought to the
attention of the Commissioners by the
Virginia authorities.
