endorsed by the five senators who met
him at Oyster Bay early in the week.
The President devoted his speech to the
discussion of the trusts, but declared
against the democratic plan of regula-
ting them by reducing or removing the
tariff. He said that any change in the
tariff would injure the weak competitors
of the trusts and the American working.
men more than the trusts. He believes
in the publicity of the financial condition
of the trusts and, if necessary, the pas
sage of constitutional amendment to
control them. While recognizing the
prosperity which the great organizations
have brought to the American people, he
firmly believes that the national govern
ment must devise some means to regu-
late them and prevent them from be-
coming monopolies.

he succeeded. The most northerlv point
reached was "a degrees II minutes in
latitude, northwest of Cape Hecla.
Commander Peary says that the pole
can be reached from Franz Joseph Land
and from Grant Land, in latitude S3 de-
grees, if the winter quarters are estab-
lished as far north as possible. He says
that he would just as soon winter at
Cape Hecla as at Sabine or Etah. On
board the Winward also was Mrs. Pearv,

Others of the party are in good health.
Commander Peary is recovering from
an accident to one of his legs, from
which he suffered last winter. He is
slightly lame, although this is not es-

North Sidney for New York Monday.
When Commander Peary reports to the

duty in the United States navy. He has
been on leave since May, 1897 His ser

Two New Bulletins.

cattle feeding. One-No. 81 shows the

pomace be put in the sio and fed during
the coming winter as supplement to
corn siage or corn fodder. The ex-
perience of four years with apple pomace

twenty cows, is unit in affirming the
nearly equivalent-it not, indeed, quite
equivalent-feeding values of apple
pomace and corn silage. No undesirable
results whatsoever have followed its use
Cows continuously and heartily fed have
not shrunk, but on the contrary have
held up their milk flows remarkably
well. Neither does the milk nor butter
seem injured in any respect. A salts,

of pomace per cow has been fed daily
with entire satisfaction. Inasmuch,
however, as reports Of severe shrinkage
occurring coincident with the use of APP

outset.

A feature Of our national prosperity is
that our demand is so much greater
than the supply that heavy contracts
have been placed abroad for goods that
should be made at home. And the nat
ural result is that large profits will go to
the foreign manufacturer that ought to
be distributed in wages and dividends at
home. Dun's Review says this is partly
because of labor disagreements, but more
on account of inadequate railroad facili
ties.
