At the outset of my remarks I alluded

This, Mr.. Chairman. l consider one of
the most important aspects Of the ques-
ton. The greatest peril to our national
prosperity ard the most sinister menace
10 our liberties nay, even to our very
existence as a tree Republic, Is from the
gigantic trusts which have sprung up so
suddenly and with such an appalling
measure Of strength m our land. These
trusts, now about 100 in number counting
only the larger and mere dangerous ones,
have succeeded in obtaining a monopoly
Of the production and sale of almost all
the articles which mankind ordinarily re-
quires to possess. including meats, sugar,
flour salt, oil. coal. iron. steel, copper,
leather rubber, paper and many other
important articles of daily and universal
use. The trusts have combined all the
sources Of supply and production in these
lines, and have thus stifed all COMPETE
ton and forced the small individual man.
ufacturer and dealer to unite with them
and to do their bidding or else be forced
out of business or driven into bankruptcy
by them. Having thus obtained monop-
oily of the various leading lines of bust
ness, the trusts have next been able TO
arrange the prices to suit themselves,
and the prices of everything today are
advancing, as we all know. They are
much higher than they were four or FIVE
years ago, when the trusts We're on their
good behavior and were feeling their way
to the securing of absolute power through

| do not need to dilate upon the dam
gerous and terrible power of the trusts
nor upon their evil effect uFon the COM
mEnity at large. The people in general
are beginning to understand these things
pretty well. but it is very desirable to
keep the people well informed as to the
conditions which render the trusts posi-
BILE and which tend to give them their
great and increasing power. There are
two principal causes or conditions to be
mentioned. One is our present high tar

markets at outside prices, and thereby

to do this work is to begin at the mouth
and work up, and then all the improve

find an unobstructed outlet to the Gulf
and would not be blocked by this inter
vening obstruction OF seventy-two miles
of shoals.

per time offec an amendment to the pend

appropriation sufficient to enable us to

There would be a continuous water
route of transportation over the bosom
of these rivers to the gulf but for the
shoals and rapids on the Coosa River,

miles from Greensport to Wetumpka, Ala.

mingled with long pools of deep water.

Does it pay to advertise? We
claim that it does, and for a sub
sanitation of our claim, we go to
the most successful business men.
You must admit that this is good
authority, for these men judge not
only by observation, but by expert
ence. The man who is most sue
cessfu] in business neglects no
means of advertising his wares or
his work. Advertising in the pa
pers of your town benefits you, we
believe, both directly and indirectly.
Perhaps you wonder how it is an in
direct help to your business. You
will admit, no doubt that any thing
which benefits your town, benefits
your business. The home newspa-
pers, if they are what they should
be, work for the interests of the town
and town is judged by its papers
by outsiders. A paper cannot be
successful, unless it is patronized
by the business enterprises of its
home.

The Democratic papers are tax
ing great pains to tell us what will
happen to the Republican party if
a certain course of action is follow
ed. They tell US that the party will
be relegated to the realms of obliv-

wonder why they are SO ready to
warn the Republicans. 1t would
seem that they ought to be glad to
see that the Republican party is
bent on its own destruction. 1t
must be an altruistic spirit that
prompts the warnings.

In one of the Denver papers we
notice the statement that there
were reports of all sorts of fraud
and ballot box stutiing" in class
elections recently in one of the high
schools. 1t is plain where the pu-
pills got the idea. Did you ever
think what natural imitators child
ren are any way? Fathers, did you
ever notice that your boy tries to
cultivate your walk, to wear his hat
in the same way you do yours, and
to use your expression in his talk.
Mothers, do you know that your
little girl wishes her hair done like
yours, her dresses made in the way
yours are made, and that she assum-
es the same attitude on most ques-
tions that you do? Every time you
notice this tendency it should
preach sermon to you. What you
wish your child to be, that you
must be. You cannot teach many
things by precept if your example
tends in the opposite direction. 1t
is not only parents who are respon-
sible in this matter either-it may
be the big brother. or the grown up
sister, the minister, or the teacher,
or the business man of the town

Some people always get the
worst of every bargain, according to
their figuring. So often we meet
people who can't think of really
good thing that ever happened to
them in particular. If you have a
pain any where, such person has
n much worse one, or has had at
some past time. If there is finan-
cial trouble, he is affected much
more than any body else. If the
weather is bad, he never gets tired
of discoursing about it, and if it is
good, he is very much afraid that
change will come soon. Such a
grumbler ought to be shut up by
himself somewhere, so he could not
trouble others. What a pity to
spend ones time over such thoughts
when if we look for our blessings
instead of our troubles, we are sure
to find that we are much better off
in many ways than our neighbors,
and most of the people we know.
Try counting your blessings friend
and you will not have time to think
of your troubles.
