Property assessed by the state board
on which the railroads paid $4,000 in

in city taxes now, Notwithstanding more
than a million dollars of improvements
added in the interval. If private citizens
improved their property in the same
manner with immense increase of reve-

should the small taxpayer whose hard

SHALL WE HAVE INDIAN sUMMERi
A Few Gentle Remarks on the
Vagarfes of the weather.
New York World.

New York World.
Because Of the scarcity Of coal a warm
autumn would be a boon. Many people
hope for 1t on the theory that the years
average temperature cannot vary much
from normal, and that the weather must
soon be fine to make up for lost time"
Herbert Spencer, in his Facts and Com
ments' combats this view Of averages and
calls attention TO the temperature Of the
ground itself as a factor In making
weather. Where the soil is always hot, as
In the Sahara, the clouds that roll In from
the Mediterranean are dissipated by the
heat, while In rainy regions the fairest
sky promises are drowned In fresh deulEes.
Mr.. Spencer adds:
That which holds permanently in these
extreme cases must hold temporarily in
less extreme cases-cases in which the sur
race, made in one way or another colder
or warmer than usual, produces a greater
or less tendency TO rain than usual"
Mr.. Spencer would find in our present
season illustration Of his theory-which
Is only a scientific way of saying that "all
signs fail in dry weather." and also in
wet weather. II he is right, the ground,
left unusually cool by a merciful summer.
caused the remarkable September downpour
OF rain; and this in turn presages a contin-
unance Of weather generally cool and cloudy
until local conditions are overborne by
winter.
A cool autumn is not generally bad for
health, while II is decidedly favorable TO
business. But there are plenty Of people
who could get along without II Just now.

THE Law OF COMPLETION.

Senator Dolliver in his speech at the
national convention OF republican clubs,
said that the more he examined the old
law Of competition the better 1t looked
to him. He pointed out that the law is
still operative, as shown In the fact
that new enterprises are constantly
springing up, and observed that the fig
ures or the census show that neither
in the mercantile nor the manufacturing
world has the small dealer who owns
his business and gives it his personal
attention anything to fear In competi-
ton with the overgrown and topheayy
investments of capital around him.
Mr.. DOlliver thought that before any
body makes up his mind that the So
called American trust is a permanent in
sttution he should consider the long
list OF ambitious combinations which
have already had their affairs wound I'D
by h courts OF justice. These com
binations started with great promise,
but being largely overeapitalized and or
ganized and managed upon an unsound
economic basis, they Inevitably went to
the wall. How many more such COM
oinations there are time will deyelop
but that there are others and some OF

4 TARIFF

A joint debate on the tariff, from an
economic standpoint, announced to take
place between Senator Hanna and Tom
L. Johnson, will command national in
terest. Both men are thoroughly
equipped for such q discussion. AS q
champion Of the policy of protection
Mr. Hanna knows his subject as well
as any man In the country. He was
educated in the school of protection, SO
to speak, and as a business man of
large interests he has most carefully
studied the policy on its practical side.
Tom L. johnson is a thorough-going free
trader, with a record as an advocate of
that policy when in congress, although
engaged In manufacturing which en-
Joyed the benefits Of protection.
Senator Hanna and Mr.. johnson will
therefore bring to the discussion a COM
plete acquaintance with the tariff uues-
ton from the economic standpoint and
they are equally earnest and sincere in
their respective views. Both are strong
public speakers, Mr.. Hanna having de-
veloped uncommon ability in this re.
spect while Mr.. Johnson long g at
tanned prominence as a speaker. 1t may
be thought that there is nothing new TO
be said in regard to the tarifr question,
but 1t is safe to say that this debate
will furnish some fresh ideas on the
subject. At all events it is certain TO
attract general attention and interest,

William Jennings Bryan's latest trust
remedy has some good ingredients, but
his proposition to squelch the coal
barons and suppress the trusts by call
ing a special session Of congress is about
as senseless as the proposition to settle
the coal miners strike by the Detroit
conference. Bryan certainly must know
that the senate as at present constituted
will enact no law that would curtail the
privileges or conflict with the interests
of the coal barons and giant corpora
tons commonly called trusts. An extra
session of congress would, therefore,
be a waste Of money and energy.

present high prices OF meats, but the
agrarians say that 1t is due to the secret
arrangements between the butchers and
bakers. which the latter emphatically deny,
asserting that 1T is due to the scarcity OF
live stock. brought about by the closing of
the German Empire to the importation OF
live stock.
The new health" regulations In regard
to the importation of foodstuffs, which will
practically exclude many Of them, win soon
be in full effect, and that accounts some
what for the discomfort among the artisans.
Germany is not now in a prosperous condi-
tion and has been in great distress for a
year and moro. That there will be any
benefit from a wholesale increase in the
price Of food products is not in the least
probable. Should this new tariff law take
effect it probably would not remain long on
the statute books without change.

them now on the verge OF dissolution
is not 20 be doubted.
We recently noted the census statistics
showing the large number OF indie
pendent industries in the country and
demonstrating that the law Of competi-
ton has been in active operation during
all the period Of the formation of great
Industrial combinations. 1t is still
operative and there is good reason to
think WIN continue to be so long as
there Is no extreme change In u
economic policy. Nevertheless the idea
OF regulating and controlling the com
binations, by practicable n Just laws,
Ii not be given up. There
u be reasonable publicity in the
affairs of large corporations that will
check stock watering and protect the
community from many Of the evils of
combinations. There must be legisla-
ton to prevent fictitious capitalization.
There must be national supervision of
the great corporations and In order to
maintain competition it will be neces-
sary to protect small rivals from unfair
and destructive competition. With the
great combinations subjected to proper
regulation and supervision and the pro-
lection to Independent industries main
tanned, there is no doubt that the law
OF competition will continue to operate

nopolies be averted.
