Trusts Can Be REGULATED.

Trusts and combinations can be reg.
ulated by federal law and federal
supervision, as suggested by President
Roosevelt. They can be made to show
their accounts. their real monetary
standing and responsibility. but they
cannot be destroyed il we remember
that change of name or even in some
degree of method will not change the
thing itself. II half the time given by
speakers and writers to advocacy of
destroying the trusts were devoted to
formulating practicable scheme of
regulating them, there would be an
appreciable gain for the country in in
creased public realization that the
trust question can be dealt with effec-
lively only by dealing with it temper
ately.-Boston Transcript.

The non was fortunate in his Ian
g,age who spoke of Mckinley as the
advance agent of prosperity" The
expression has been made the sport
Of Democratic and Populistic orators
who by long custom have come natur-
ally to look upon the dismal side Of
things. Republicans have their view
of the business situation and believe
that principles preached and practice
ed by the party have helped and not
obstructed the nation in its forward
march to an increased business. They
have been in power and their party is
not one to evade responsibilities
either for success or defeats. The
prosperity over all the country Is SO
splendid that Republicans are proud
of the share they have had in it.
In the financial world during tho
! past week there was healthy
growth. The increase in the bank
clearings was nearly three per cent.
( The grand total of the bank clearings
reached $2,029, 796,712. These figures
indicate no stringency in the financial
world. The increase in the clearings
was large in the cities located in the
Middle West. None of them report q
decrease.
The railroads are doing a heavy
business. Their carrying capacity Is
taxed to the fullest extent. In not
a few instances freights have to be
delayed for want of cars, and this,
too, before the great grain crops of
the west have fairly begun to move.
The farmers business is in good
shape throughout the nation. r. G..
Dun & Co. say: bright prospects in
agricultural sections far outweigh the
adverse influences which are still re-
tarding trade and manufactures"

ming on full time to meet the de.
mands, and in many cases orders are
not filled at once, but are filed to
await their turn. There never has
been time when the great factories
were so pressed with work as they are
now.
The slight cessation of business for
the summer has about passed and
people are getting ready for the fall
rush. The volume of business In
this country for the next four months
promises to be unprecedented. Fol
that time prosperity will be a record
breaker.-Terre Haute Tribune.

The Reward of the Unsuccessful.

There are thousands of men to
whom immediate success rarely
comes they are met by constant fail
ures and disappointments; they strug.
gle with scant reward, and scantier
recognition from the world. The
sweets Of success are never theirs !;
the struggle, the labor and the long
deferred hope are their daily expert
ence. Such men may not miss the
browning of life; it may be theirs to
pluck from failure the immediate
flower of noble character-Ham

Not a Trust Panacea.

The instances in which tariff revi-
sion aimed at trusts would find an
other target might be multiplied. It is
not as trust panacea that tariff re-
vision appeals to the more enlight-
ened students Of economic questions.
The question for present statesmen Is
to abandon tariff schedules that are
not necessary to preserve the life Of
home industries and to utilize this
tariff reduction in the securement of
similar reductions on the part Of other
countries. which will benefit the Amer
lean export trade. The word used to
define this measure of statesmanship
is reciprocity. and the men who have
given it Endorsement include Blaine,
Mckinley, Roosevelt and many others.

Searching for an Issue,

EX-Secretary Villas urges that the
tariff issue shall be revived and put
to the front. This was Mr.. Cleve-
lands counsel in his New York
speech. 1t is the last resort Of those
who can see nothing else to suggest
It 10 based partly upon the old denun-
citation of protection as the creator of
monopolies and combinations, and
partly upon the claim that, whatever
may have been true in the past, the
existing tariff rates on various
articles are no longer necessary. But
the trouble with this issue is that
under the existing tariff we have had
the highest domestic prosperity and
the largest foreign trade we have
ever had. Industry has far-out-
stripped all previous development,
and commerce is stretching out it's
arms in every direction. With bust
ness thus active and labor we'll en-
ployed 1t is impossible to make any
popular cutlery on this subject. The
people have too vivid a recollection
Of the disastrous consequences of the
last Democratic tinkering with the
tariff to invite its repetition. Turn
which way they will. the Democratic
leaders find no issue on which they
can hopefully fight.-Philadelph

Mr.. Shaw says that the reciprocity
speech Of Mr.. Mckinley at Buffalo has
been misrepresented. In what way,
and by whom? Is 1t the secretary's
opinion that Mr.. Mckinley on that oc-

proposition? The speech is very far
from encouraging that Interpretation.
Mr.. Mckinley not only declared for
reciprocity, but gave it as his opinion
that the time had arrived for the in
nuguration of the policy by the United
States. There seems to be the fullest
