Took All That Was Canine

A group of men stood in the Baltimore
and Potomac station one day discuss
ing dining table incidents they had
witnessed in crowded restaurants. saws
the Washington Star. Several inter-
esting stories had been told. when Mr..
Cobaugh joined the party. He recalled
an incident that occurred at a town on
the line of one of the big railroads
where he was then running a hotel.
There were number of tables in the
dining room, and one in the extreme
rear end was reserved for the family.
1t happened that a couple on their
wedding trip stopped at the hotel one
night, and in the morning when they
went TO the dining room the only va
cant table in the room was the one
set apart for the family.
Mrs. Cobaughhad not been feeling the
best in the world and the doctor had
ordered tonic for her." related Mr..
Cobaugh. 1.-THE tonic was kept on the
table all the time, in order that the
patient would not forget her dose. It
was labeled, one tablespoon after
meals
THE couple had evidently never
stopped at hotel before" continued
the restaurant man. land for the first
time they did remarkably we'll. "Fhey
ordered everything on the menu card,
and when the meal was finished the
husband picked up the bottle, read the
directions and gave his better half a
dose as directed. Then he took a dose
himself. said he felt better and walked
out with a self-satisfed look about
him"

CAN'T BE TRUSTED.

That there is a widespread and
recognized by the Republican leaders.
Speaker Henderson found the demand
so strong in his district that he quit
the race for reelection rather than
face defeat. The President acknowI-
edges that something ought to be done
in the way of lowering tariff duties.
and has suggested a permanent tariff
commission. Senator Hoar of Massa-
chusetts, in a speech delivered in Bos-
ton a few days ago, agreed that the
tariff would have to be revised again
and. again and again" Even Senator
Hanna is not averse to lowering some
Of the duties, he says. But what say
all of these Republicans with respect
to the process of revision? Why. that
the work must be done by the friends
of protection.
Have the friends of protection ever
done anything to justify an expecta-
ton that they would meet the wishes
Of the people If once more given full
power and authority to amend the
tariff? In his speech at Morristown Mr..
Cleveland very clearly and forcibly
developed the fact that the friends of
protection are not to be trusted in this
matter. The Mckinley law was bad
enough, in all conscience, but the Ding
ley law is very much worse. Where
there were dozens of monopolies under
the former, there are hundreds under
the latter; and the greatest trust in
the world has been formed since the
passage of the Dingley law and the
adoption of the Sherman antitrust act.
Whenever these friends of protection
have had an opportunity to do so they
have piled on instead of taking off
the protective duties. And there is no
good reason under the sun for think
ing that they would not act in a pre-
cisely similar manner il another revis-
ion of the tariff were attempted under
their auspices. The protected trusts and
monopolies are stronger now than they
were when the Dingley law was pass
ed. If they could influence legislation
then-and 1t is said that some of them
actually wrote the schedules for their
protection which were embodied in the
BILLS it TO be supposed that they
would exert less influence now? Their
greed has not been checked and their
power has grown enormously greater
There is nothing to be hoped for from
a party controlled by such forces, as
the Republican party is. The only hope
for revision on correct lines lies in the
triumph of the Democratic party.

LOCAL TAXES FOR SCHOOLS.

The constitutional amendment pro-
posed by Senator Mitchell of the Twen-
ty-fourth District, to enable counties,
military districts, school districts and
municipalities to establish public
schools and maintain them by local
taxation, is a good measure and ought
to have the support of every friend of
education in the General Assembly
and that ought to include the whole
membership. We can never have an
efficient public school system in the
state, outside of the cities, until the
people tax themselves locally for the
support of schools. The tax should
supplement the fund from the state
treasury and extend the school term
and improve the school houses.
If each district were required to du-
- means of local taxation the
sum drawn from the state treasury, or
even to raise a fund one-half the size,
the schools would soon be in a flour
ishing condition; and there would be
precious few districts that failed to
qualify for their share of the states
fund. Furthermore, the patrons of
the schools would take more interest
in them. They would feel a proprle
tary pride in the schools and exert ev-
D., 20 Improve them and see that
the attendance was full. Better teach
ers could be secured and better results
achieved for all parties concerned.
There would be very little if any OBJ
lection to local taxation for school
purposes. The people do not mind
contributing dollar or two year ex-
ira when they know it will be for the
benefit OF their children and expended
right at home where the results can be
watched.

HypnOtizes AlIigators.

Speaking of catching alligators re-
minds me of a rather unique charac-
ter in this section of the. country" said,
according to the New Orleans Times
Democrat a man who has spent the
greater part of his life in these parts.
for he has the power of hypnotism
developed to an abnormal degree. He
has the power of hypnotizing alliga-
tors, and, in fact, never uses any 9TH
er means in catching the wary sau-
rlan. How he does it no living man
knows except himself. Animals are
very susceptible to this influence, and
IN many instances 1t is a compare
lively easy thing to hypnotic ami
mails. Take the trained animals, for
instance, we find in the circus and on
the vaudeville stage in these latter
days. 1t is simply a case of hypno-
tism! 1t is the power of suggestion.
L suppose it is the same thing in tie
case of an alligator.
The troubling part of the thing is
how on earth man can command the
attention of the Saurian long enough
to put him under the spell. The old
man have in mind can do it lust the
same, and he seems to be rather proud
OF the fact. He is in the habit of tell
ing his friends that it is altogether a
lndtteT OI the eyes. 1t depends on how
he looks at the alligator of course.
| have to get in close range he says,
else l could have no influence on the
alligator
Besides, my experience has taught
me that the alligator's visual range is
not very extensive. He can only see
short distance, but he can see suffi-
GENTLY we'll to enable him to- be in
huenced if you go about it in the right
way. / am not we'll enough posted to
pass on the merits of the old mans
explanation. But from what I know
of him and from what others have told
me about their experience, he is able
to catch alligators without resorting to
the methods usually employed by ALI
gator hunters
when he once gets them under his
influence, catching them in ascompara-
lively easy matter. He throws a net
around them and it is sufficiently
strong to hold them until he can null
them in. He never fails in his Wort,
when he can get in close enough
range and the fact has convinced me
that there is something in the old
mans claim that he has the power of
hypnotizing alligators. At any rate
he can catch them, and he doesn't use
negro babies for bait either

IN THE GRASP OF TIE TRUSTS

n
The trusts and monopolies have es-
tablished almost a reign of terror
among those who must deal in COM
modities manufactured or controlled
by them. Those merchants and deal
ers who are sufferers by reason of the
despotism of the trusts in the mat
ters of prices and trade rules dare not
enter protests against the grinding tyr
amy of the monOpOlies, for fear that
they may be totally debarred from
trade. The trusts have it in their pow
er to shut off the sources of supply of
any dealer who proves Objectionable
to them, or to crush him by ruinous
competition and thus drive him out
of the field. Instances are not wanting
in which trusts have exercised like
giants their gigantic power to crush
dealers who have kicked against their
demands or declined to accede to their
terms.
A few days ago a merchant talked
about the methods of certain trusts to
gain and mOnopolize certain field;
Jul 4AG AiSlGAEu lAelL llON4AAHS 0clA0 ny
him should be made public, for the rea-
son that IL it came to the knowledge
of the trusts in question that he had
spoken against their exactions, he
might have his trade cut off by them.
With the trusts controlling the nee
essaries Of life, prices are advanced
gradually but steadily. The increase
comes out of the pockets Of the con-
sumner and the dealer who distributes
to him. There is scarcely an article
that is needed in housekeeping that has
not advanced in price and is not still
advancing; not because the cost of
production is greater, because in nearly
all lines of manufacture labor saving
machinery and improved methods are
constantly reducing the cost of produc-
ton. The only good reason for the adj
vance is that the trusts find their OPP
portunity for still further squeezing
the people, and they never let an OPP
portunity of that kind pass by unim-
proved. Both consumers and distribut-
ors are forced to pay tribute to the
power and greed of the trusts. The
profits of the independent employer are
cut down, which in turn reacts upon
those who are employed by him. He
receives less returns on his investment
and therefore is compelled to pay less
to his help or to employ a smaller
number of men. This condition is not
peculiar to any certain locality, but ex-
lists throughout the country.
And who receives the benefit of this
concentration and these higher prices?
Only few thousand men who are in
terested in trusts and monopolies; men
who, by the watering of stocks, force
the people of the United States to pay
interest on millions and millions of dol
lars of paper values that have no act
ual existence. The system operates to
make the rich richer and the poor poor
er. And all this has been brought about
by the fastening upon the country of
the policy of the Republican party.
That party, with its high tariff and
other discriminating laws, is directly
responsible for the trust evil, and 1t
cannot by any possibility escape that
responsibility. The remedy, and the
only remedy, is for those who have suf-
fered and are suffering from the trust
evils to turn the Republican party out
of power.

hard to beat: king Edward is now

rivers and 10,G00 islands. He waves his
hand and 10000 warriors march to
battle to conquer or die: he bends his
head, and at the signal 1000 ships of
war and 100000 sailors perform his bid
ding on the ocean. He walks upon the
earth. and 10000, 600 human beings feel
the least pressure of his foot. The AS

The Persian Empire was not so pow

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Philadelphia Record (Dem.)
says: Secretary Shaw seems still to
attach much Importance to his eco
nomical discovery that the rich pay
most of the taxes. This is true only
of direct taxes. Everybody under Sec
rotary Shaw knows that indirect taxes,
like the Dingley duties, are paid by
the masses of the people, and weigh
heaviest on the poorest of them. The
worst is that the largest portion of
these taxes does not go into the public
treasury, but is diverted to the Golfers
of industrial monopolies."
The Washington Post Qnd.) points
out a good reason for tariff revision.
Many of the schedules of the Dingley
law, says the Post, are Obsolete and
need revising, because one great fea-
ture of the Dingley act, reciprocity, has
not been carried into effect" All the
schedules which Mr.. Dingley said were
'purposely made too high" in order to
afford room for reduction by reciproc-
ity are still too high" The Post,
while it does not approve of tariff leg
islation by treaties, is in favor of rec
iprocity by act or acts of Congress.
And it is absurd to talk of standing
pat on schedules that were put at an
excessive hight with the understand
ing that, in a few months, they would
be let down. That is not defending
protection whatever else 1t may be. If
free trade were not dead beyond pos
sible resurrection, the talk of the stand
patters would be the kind of tonic to
restore it to pernicious activity"
The New York Herald Qnd) says:
More than $2O.OOO.0OO under
Secretary Shaw's order, has been
paid at the sub-treasury thus far in
redemption of bonds having a face
value of less than $15,000,000. When
one recalls the very small premiums at
which these bonds were sold by the
treasury and notes the high premiums
at which they are being redeemed he
is impressed with a conviction of the
ridiculous manner in which the nation
al finances are conducted. Money is
taken from the people in the form of
needless taxes and heaped in the treas
ury until its removal from the chan
nels of trade becomes distressing. Then
much of it is distributed on deposit
among favored banks that get the use
of 1t without interest, and when this
device proves inadequate large sums
are spent in paying these absurdly high
prices for bonds. TO the profit of the
bankers and capitalists who hold them.
And this has gone on uncorrected for
almost q generationp'
