Some Sense on Trusts.

Ibis excerpt from Secretary Roots
recent speech is worth reading: a.
little study Of the course Of business
In the country leaves no doubt that
it will take care Of itself. Capita!
may combine for the moment all the
productive plants Of the country and
80, for the moment, monopolize the
market. but American competi.
ton Immediately commences the con.
struction Of new plants. The country
is too big, raw material is too plenti-
full, the market is too wide, our
wealth is too great, our people are
too enterprising for any one concern
to monopolize the field II there is
fair play. When the sugar trust
was formed, it took in over 30 per
cent Of the refining capacity Of the
country. Immediately new refneries
were started and today over 40 per
cent Of the sugar Of the country is
made by outside concerns. The latest
and greatest combination, the United
States Steel company, was supposed
to be an overwhelming monopoly;
but the statistics Of the American
Iron and Steel Association for last
August show that already in the
year 1902, independent companies
produced over 81 per cent Of the iron
ore Of the country, over 81 per cent
Of the total pig iron, over 40 per cent
Of the Bessemer steel rails, over 81
per cent Of the structural iron, over
40 per cent Of all rolled products
We forget the Cambria Steel Com
pany, the Pennsylvania Steel Com.

and the Republic Iron and Steel Com.
pany and scores Of other great estab.
lishments with hundreds Of mills and
furnaces. Competition is growing,
new plants are being equipped. The
Union Steel Company is building;
the Crucibls Steel Company is build
ing; the Lackawanna Steel Company
is building at Buffalo, in our own
state, a eSO,0O0,OOO plant. Are you
going to, ruin all such independent
industries for the purpose Of punish.
ing the trusts or are you going to
help them in their competition by
wise regulation, and seeing to it, il
need be, that the big concern IS fair
to the smaller onesP Are you going
to say to the workmen In the tin
plate mills who have just cut their
own wages to make competition with
foreign produceas possible, "You are
working for trust! We are going
to make your sacrifice useless and

tariff SO as to bring in foreign COM

On the Grave Of ingalls,.

The grave Of the late John James
Ingalls, at Mount Vernon cemetery in
Atchison will be marked by a native
boulder, deposited on Kansas soil
years ago in the glacial period. This
will be done at the request Of the
distinguished statesman himself as
given in a letter written 10 the senate
chamber at Washington, December
10, 1890. The epistle is written in
the famous English style Of penman.
ship Of Mr.. ingalls,, and, being per-
sonal letter to his wife, tells by in
ference Of tho real love Of the man for
the state whose interests be repre-.
sented in the senate SO many years.
The letter follows: 1.-The cold wave
has passed off, and the morning Is
like April. A few patches Of snow
lie on the grass, and in the valleys Of
northern roofs, but the pavements
are clear and the clouds are steamy
and still. The world is so lovely at
its best, and life is so delightful, that
l dread the thought Of leaving it. l
have seen and experienced SO little Of
what may be seen and known that it
seems like closing a volume Of which
| have only glanced at the title page
But so many are taking their leave,
and | have already survived SO large
number Of my contemporaries, that l
must contemplate my departure with
the rest. | thought as l lay in bed
this morning, having walked early,
! what an uncivil host life is, to invite
us to an entertainment which we are
compelled to attend whether we like
1t or not, and then to unceremonious-
ly take us by the arm and bow us out
into the night, stormy and dismal, to
60 stumbling about without so much
as a lantern to show US the way to
another town. To continue in the
same strain Of reflection, our ground
in the cemetery should have mon.
ument.' hate these obelsks, urns
and stone cottages, and should prefer
a great natural rock-ohe Of the red
boulders-known as the lost rocks
Of the prairie-porphyry from the
north-brought down In glacial times
with a small surface smoothed
down-]ust large enough to make q
tsblet-in which should be inserted
the bronze letters OF our name-'ln-
galls'-and nothing else" Here the
letter refers to personal matters.
Such q stone as described is now be-
ing sought, and, it is unnecessary to
say that Mrs. Ingalls, will follow out
all the details suggested.

LAUNDERING COURTESY.
The Ob1fging Young Man Had Hair
ON His Head and Could Spare
His Hat.

Excessive kindliness of heart, when al
he'd to laundering courtesy, is occasionally
productive of an amusing incident OF such
is the following: A president in recent
times OF one of our royal colleges was noted
for the possession of trim little yacht,
which he was fond of sailing in one of the
reaches of the River Thames, says the Can
did Friend. One Gay the president had the
misfortune to capsize his craft, with the
consequent result of complete immersion
He was Immediately assisted ashore and
a change of clothing provided at an adjacent
boathouse. This, however, did not include
hat of any description. The president,
who is an old MAN and epondingly bald,
stood shivering, his scant hair uncomforta-
bly, stirred by the breeze. His plight was
observed with respectful compassion by one
of the students of the college who had wit
messed the catastrophe, and offered his own
headgear. The president, however, seemed
reluctant to accept it, saying: eff l take
yours, what will you do?" 'Oh, SIR said
the student, cit doesn't matter for me- I've
got hair on my head" This statement was
| accepted as final by the president, together
with the cap, and ne laughed heartily at
what, after all, was not wholly a one-sided
joke, for the CONSERVATION of the student
may be better imagined than described.
