DEWEY AND ANDERSON.

A DMIRAL DEWEY has at last
II drawn the fire of General Ander-
son. and it isn't any sham battle be-
tween the doughty fighters. either. so
far as Andersen is concerned. If the
fight to capture the city of Manila
was a "hippodroms." as stated by
Admiral Dewey. General Anderson
says he had no previous knowledge of
il, nor any knowledge at all until after
he read the testimony of Admiral
Dewey before the senate committee re-
Gently.
The country will pardon General An
derson for his indignation. 1t certain
ly does seem that American lives
should be held more valuable than
Spanish honor. According to General
Anderson's showing, 122 American SOL
diers were killed or wounded during
Admiral Dewey's sham" battle. De-
cidedly, General Anderson has the bet
ter Of the controversy. If Admiral
Dewey and the Spanish commander
had an agreement that the fight"
should be harmless. the former should
at least have stipulated that the Span
ish soldiers be required TO fire in the
air
At best the proceeding was a foolish
one. II is likely. as the land fighter
says, that Admiral Dewey was de-
oeived. If he was not deceived. then
the agreement was carried out so sue
Cessfully as 10 deceive the entire
American army into believing that it
had fight on its hands. When a
soldier sees a comrade fan dead by
his side he is very apt 10 believe he
is in a real engagement He is also
likely TO make it warm for the other
fellow
However the entire question is four
years old nov. That makes it ancient
history in these rushing times. No
good can be derived from stirring it
up at this time, except, as General
Anderson says. that if Admiral
Dewey's statement IN regard to the
battle were allowed to go unchal-
lepged it might be accepted as history.

FRUSTRATING REPusLucANs.

DRESIDENT ROOSEVELT has been
talking a good deal lately about
what he is going to do to bust the
trusts. There is nothing particularly
new in this, for Republicans these
many years have been inveighing
against trusts in public, while in pri-
vate they have been giving them aid
and comfort by their works shall we
know them is a very old quotation.
TO which President Roosevelt's atten-
ton is respectfully directed.
For more than six years the Re
publican party has been in absolute
control of government affairs. II has
had the power to pass new laws and
considered proper. During this time
not single serious step has been taken
in the direction of checking the trust
evil. This. too. in spite of the fact
that the last five years have been fat
years for the monopolists.
Had a man ten years ago suggested
the possibility of a billion dollar trust,
he would have been considered an Idle
dreamer Yet we have now one bill
lion dollar trust. the United states
Steel corporation. and if report speaks
truly, another is shortly to be formed

Salt Lake has furnished a reason for
its existence Had it not been for the
efforts of this organization it is more

fishers TO when the number OF editions

Robert Edeson, the actor, once re-
marked that there was the basis OF a
good American play in almost every
issue of daily paper. He might have
said with equal truth that the basis Of
several stories could be found in the
same manner. Now and then there ap-
pear items in the daily press which
are so applicable TO the fiction form
that it seems a pity more good au-
thors do not get their ideas for stories
in this way. A few days ago there
was printed a copy of a letter from
Mr.. Andrew Carnegie to some one in
Maine who had sent him a photograph
of the ship in which he came to this
country, over fifty years ago. Mr..
Carnegie recalled a sailor on board
who was a great favorite. Bergman
by name, and wrote that If he could
find this sailor ne should like to be
of service.

It has always been puzzle to many
readers Of the publishers announce
ments TO understand how editions are
figured That there is any set number
OF volumes printed for an edition is no
longer suspected by even the most
credulous. Certainly the problem must
be battling TO one who reads: Now
Ready Third Edition; Fourth Edition
in Press" At just what point did the
publisher decided TO stop the third edi-
tion2 a first edition may be 100 copies,
or II may be 100000 In the case OF a
popular novel brought out last year
the first edition was 10000 copies. One
OF the best selling books of the present
season has had thus far but one edi-
ton, and some q, coo copies Of that are
still stored in the publishers shipping

explanation Of the matter is that the
publishers make the first edition of a
book equal to the number which they
think they can sell This estimate Is
often based on the advance orders,
more often ON the fame of the au-

AGRICULTURAL NIPPLE NEKIs.

A LTHOUGH THE MANUFACTURES
II of agricultural implements has
been a recognized industry in the
United States for more than CEN
fury, it is only within the last fifty
years that it has attained phenomenal
proportions. An interesting fact in
connection with this work is that the
number of establishments has contin-
. uously grown smaller, according to the
census bulletins. For example. in 1850
there were 1888 establishments, report
ing a capital of SO. 564. POP, and in 1900.
IT'S establishments. with a combined
capital of s157, 7O7. 951
The story of the growth of the in
dustry, from the bent stick pillow of
the ancients TO the steam gang pillow
| of the western prairie. is interesting
America has always led the van in
the improvements to farming imple-
ments. AS early as 1877 a New Jersey
man was granted patent for cast
/ iron pillow. 1t was used successfully
for a number of years, but was finally
abandoned on the rather absurd theory
that cast iron poisoned the land in
! which it was used.
| Early in the last century the first
pillow with an adjustable point was
manufactured. and subsequent i'm
provements have followed one another
rapidly Today the varieties of pIows
are almost endless. There are one,
two and three-horse plows, riding and
walking plows, right or left-hand
plows, two and three-furrow gang
plows, timber land, vineyard or or
| eral purpose plows. All of these are
manufactured with interchangeable
parts so they can be renewed when
ever necessary.
From the primitive reaping hook 70
the modern harvester, which sweeps
down an empire of grain in a morning,
is a long, long step. And it is a step.
too, that the American Inventor has
been foremost in taking. The first
patent for machine moving by horse
power was granted in the United
States in 1872. Now there are har-
vester-binders, bean and clover har-
vesters, corn, cotton, hemp and fax
and combined harvesters and thresh-
ers in almost endless varieties.
The value of the output of all the
agricultural implement factories is
placed at SOL. 2O7. 42s. which required
an outlay of $SO,SI4, OsO in wages and
salaries, s11. 3s4, $50 for miscellaneous
expenses and S43, ,62S for materials
An average of nearly $4,000 people
were employed during the census year
