ALapland Clock.

Perhaps it is not realized by many
persons that in the higher ATTITUDES
clocks become more and more con-
venience, II they are not a prime neces-
sity, to the housekeeper. When the
sun is above the horizon for weeks
together there Is little difference to be
noted between day and night. An En-
glish traveller thus describes a clock
he met with in Lapland: IAN ordlpary

Closing DAYS of the War.

"A good many Of the boys" said a
veteran recently, "made mistakes in the
last year Of the war. The hundred
days men and the one-year men who
enlisted In 1864 or early in 1865 were
hard to hold after the surrender Of Lee.

enlisted were restive when they saw
the Confederate armies breaking up.

watched the track to see the flying won

engine. with screaming whistle and two
great lamps glaring like the eyes Of Il

came screaming toward them, they fled
like panic-stricken rabbits 10 the near

few white men on the platform to face
the danger.

to the driver and asked him please to

OK wagon. The Swazis were quite re-
assured. and were soon laughing and
talking again as lively as ever. At sid

Teddy Duly Notified.


The Republican State convention in
Ohio. personally engineered and con-
trolled by Senator Mark Hanna. chair
man Of the Republican nationai COM
mittee, is conceded to have furnished
the keynote for the next presidential
campaign. At that convention Gov
Nash, who is Senator Hanna's official
representative la Ohio. made the
speech which is supposed to outline
Republican policy. Here is one Of the
things he said:
Corporations should not be looked
upon as the enemies of the people, but
as their friends. capable Of still fur
ther development and making useful
the great resources Of our State, and
giving to labor remunerative employ
ment and to capital safe investment.
The last Legislature looked with
friendly spirit upon the presence of
corporations in Ohio. 1t believed that
they should be fOstered and encourag-
ed. and not fought as the common enc
mics of mankind"
ing between the lines will experience
little difficulty In discovering the warn
ing thus conveyed to the present Occu-
pant of the White House, who has
shown a marked disposition to be OBJ
streperous upon the question of cor
porate and trust operations. 1t may
also be accepted as due and timely no.
tlce that the Republican party has no
intention of abandoning those interests
from which it drew its S6.0Oo.00 cam
paign fund for the election of McKin
ley. The Republican party is the
friend of the corporations, and If the
Man on Horseback doesn't approve he
will be given the future privilege OF
returning to his cowboy ranges.-Den-

A Cure for Monopoly.

The trusts themselves are the most
active instigators of discussion of this
question: How shall these great com
binations of capital be controlled IN the
public interest?
Every trust that is pillaging the peo-
pie gets its power 10 do so from mo-
nopoly. Monopoly is rooted in special
privilege. The Coal Trust, for exam
pie, has an absolute mastery of the
market for anthracite because 1t owns
the coal fields and the railroads that
carry the coal. To attack the trust IN
the courts on the complaint that II
has not been formed in strict comph-
ance with the technical requirements
of the law Is To he interested III the
make of n highwayman's pistol ratner
than in its shooting capacity. Its power
to enforce the orders of Hands up.
And to rally public opinion for protest
against the Coal Trusts rapacity ana
arrogance is but to roar against effects
while ignoring causes.
"Why," asks So conservative jour-
nal as the Springfield Republican,
"why should exclusive private monop-
oily of natural resources SO essential to
the life and industry of the people as
coal be suffered to exist: And every
body who can think asks why rail-
roads, which ought to he common car
riers, treating all shippers equally
should be suffered to be used by the
trusts TO k off competition.
So we see the country coming to an
understanding of the elementary truth
that. as private ownership of natural
resources and of the means Of transpor-
tation inevitably results in the creation
Of monopolies. the effective way to deal
with monopolies must be to strike at
the private ownership of natural re-
sources and the railroads.
The Coal Trust and the Food Trust
are just now the leading schOolmasters
Of the American people. The educa-
ton in clear thinking about fundamen-
tai economics which they are giving Is
of the very highest value. 1t is sure to
bear fruit ultimately in thorough-going
remedial and not merely palliative leg
islation.

ers. or who objects to extortionate
prices for fuel and food, il he is
