POWER or ruE TRUSTS.

1t is disquietiuG report that gives
officially from Washington the total
capituliz itioL Of 1873 business combiua-
lions in this country-wh hat the public
calls trusts--as s3.607. 5:9. 200. Such Il
stupendOus sun aud the fact that a few
men. a mere handful. practically control
II. may we'll be cause for alarm. SAYS the
Saturday Evening Post.
And yet there are other ways of con
siderInR the matter. Great though the
sum is, it does not, as scn.e excitabie
men declare. equal all the other wealth
OF the country. The taxable value Of
property in Greater New York alone is
some millions OF dollars beyond the total
capitalization Of the great trusts OF the
country.
And take the monster billion dollar
trust. Huge though it is. it may not be
looked upon as so absolutely over power
ing when We remember that the taxable
value OF property in Boston alone goes
beyond a billion. Properly applied,
there is Il sutticiency Of strength in the
country to offset the power OF the trusts
il mi contest should arise. But the
trusts have the advantage OF a central.
lied and disciplined strength, and they
are steadily increasing.
The ls3 trusts employ about 100000
wage earDers-ahuut rs many wage.
earners us there are men. women and
children in the sixth largest city OF our
country.
\ serious feature OF the situation is
that Of the 2203 plants controlled by the
lS3 combinations, about 8 per cent are
standing idle. 1t has always been
charged against trusts that one result of
:hc:r operations would be the shutting
down Of many plants which under pri.
vate ownership would continue to run
md employ workmen.
Though the wealth OF The country at
large is still far beyond the capitalize
ton Of the trusts. the situation is none
the less n to merit se1ous thought,
especially when it ia considered that
One-half Of the 1873 combinations were
organized between the eighteen months
between january |, l-99. and June 30.
1900.
The totals of money handlei by the
1873 trusts is col"ssal. In wages they
pay out some s%200,O0o,0OU. That is
within a few thousands OF dollars of the
total amount annually received by the

BETTER THAN "ABoUT RIGHT
Lesson TauEht Thomas King, the
Lecturer, by a Lnnk Yankee
of New England.

Thomas Starr King. the famous
preacher and lecturer, was settled in
California ut the outbreak of the
cival war, n to his influence is
nscribcd the change of public opin.
ion in that state from lukewarmncss
toward the northern cnuse TO devoted
loyalty. The Overland Monthly has
lately published an article on this
famous man from which we take an
anecdote told about Mr.. King by
James +. Fields:
Mr.. King. with n friend, was max
ing Il trip through the White noun
tains. They were travelling by that
most delightful Of conYeyances-a
country wagon. When they stopped
a few minutes at the door OF n New
Hampshire tavern, Mr.. Kings COM
panion went in to replenish their pro-
vision basket, aud he remained in the
vehicle.

Yankees that are always hanging

asked, until Mr.. King got impatient
1t the length OF the operation. and
said. rGther sharply:
You needn't trouble yourself any
more. I think that harness is about
light"
The Yankee finished his work and
lrawled out: Guess rights better'n
bcaout right"
There was no reply TO this. Mr..
sings friend returned. and he drove
oif, confessing to n lesson which he
needed To learn less than most Of his
:~ountrymen: Right" is better than
about right"
