combinations of all industries are
menace to true government, says
Russell Sage. "Not only so, but
they are oppressors of the people. =
The old tinancier also declared that if
practically all the industries should
be monopolized ''the American people
will revolt against them and there
will be financial ruin the like of which
this country has never seen-or any
other country But. these remarks.
although somewhat startling. are
along the lines of conventional dis
cussion. 1t is in the strictly business
view that Mr.. Sage furnishes some
what new matter. ''When several in
austries are starting out in business. -
he says, sit is we'll for individuals to
combine for mutual protection until
the business is firmly established.
When the business is so established
the combination should be disrupted
and conducted on individual lines.
Then, if one Individual became en-
barrassed, it would not mean the
wrecking of the industry 1 believe it
is better to have such industries
divided among several individuals
than combined into one great com
bination, the embarrassment of which
would mean the ruin of ALL" This is
a reversal of the theory of "the in
evitable trend of consolid ation,' SO
heartily advanced by the organizers
of trusts. 1t is a reas enable argu-
ment, too, for it is based on the prin-
ciple that the weak rather than the
strong should stand together. Mr..
Sage is not credited with being a deep
philosopher, but he is acknowledged
to be a far-seeing business man. In
his own transactions he has not been
characteristic opportunist. He has
looked ahead. He is certainly right
in declaring that an Industry divided
| among a number of establishments is
! safer, even as a business proposition
than a monopoly, unless, of course.
the monopoly may be regulated by
law so as not to offend the people and
cause revolutionary sentiment.

A MODEL RANCH.
Something About the Forsha Ranch
In Reno County,.

We recently had the pleasure OF
visiting the Forsha ranch, twelve
miles south of Hutchinson, and were
very much impressed with what we
saw. The ranch contains between five
and six thousand acres of fine land
which is all under fence and is partly
used for alfalfa and other crops, the
balance being used for pasture. The
ranch carries about 1900 head of
steers which are fed for the market on
scientific principles-what Is known
as the balanced ration. Ground feed
is fed in trOughs and under cover,
alfalfa being the principle roughness,
of which more than two thousand tons
are already in the stack. Black
smiths, carpenters and other skilled
laborers are kept by the year. The
dwelling house is a model and shows
what comfort and convenience can be
wash basins and norcelain bath
tub and sitting room for the men and
private bath room for the proprietor,
good beds for forty people, hot and
cold water and furnace heat all over
the house, gas lights, local and long
distance telephones-in fact every
convenience of a modern city house
can be found in this model country
home.
The most remarkable feature of this
place is a 150-barrel Touring mill
located right near the dwelling, and
the proprietor says it is paying
proposition. 1t is kept running right
along, grinding feed for the ranch
and flour for the trade. At first
glance it would seem that the hauling
to and from the railroad would make
it impossible to run it to advantage,
but when you stop to figure the haul
ing it would be necessary to do to
ranch feeding 1900 head of a cattle
and hundreds of hogs the profit be-
comes readily apparent. Labor trou-
bles are never heard of here, and Sam
Forsha, the manager, is the most
popular man in Reno county, as he
/ should be, for the man who devotes
SO much thought and money to pro-
viding for the comfort and convent
ence of the people by whom he is SUR
rounded does not need to wait until
after death for appreciation.

legislature could enact and enforce
laws by which the several states could
regulate the gigantic corporations
and monopolies within their respect
i've limits. This was the only sug-
gestion the president had to make on
a subject which, to all outward
appearances, had for months been
agitating his strenuous brain.
Throughout the whole course of his
remarks he seemed to be laboring
under an unusual reserve. something
that has not heretofore been notice
able in his reckless and unbridled
speeches. 1t may be that Mr.. Roose-
velt has a bigger job on his hands
than he bargained for. The great
corporations that have made possible
the present reign of the republican
party are not to be sileuced by the
feeble mouthings of few malcontents
who, after being the recipients of
many favors, may feel inclined to
oppose their benefactOrs.

After months of waiting 7. T. Kelly
has made public statement in regard
to his affairs as county clerk of
Miami county. He denies that he
ever secured dollar of the county 8
money to which he was not entitled
and asserts that the fight on him is in
the nature of political persecution.
He will not withdraw from the state
ticket as to do so would be to admit
his guilt. Had Mr.. Kelly made his
statement Immediately after his nomi-
nation 1t would have had the effect OF
making the regular republican organ
ization stand up for him. The gen.
eral impression now seems to be that
the statement cannot do him or his
party any good at this time.

RooseveIt's Equivocal Speech.

President Roosevelt delivered an
address at Boston the first of the week
the chief topic of which was "trusts. !"
The president did not speak in his
usually confident manner and his
speech seemed to have been prepared
with the utmost caution, so much SO
that it may almost be said to have
been prepared with view to making
himself solid with the corporations
whom he has of late been so blatantly
His address was re-
plete with ELUSIVE compliments to the
inhabitants of New England in gen.
eral and the people of Boston in par.
ticular, to such an extent that the
subject of trusts was relegated to a
position of almost secondary impor-
tance. He recommended that congress
should be given power to control the
trusts so that on questions of inter
national Importance the national

rate of production. Men must be
squeezed to the limit in wages. They
must buy their supplies of the COM
pany at an exorbitant rate. They
must work on a long ton schedule,
| while the railroad sells the same coal
at short ton schedule. The long ton
with its overweight of 240 pounds is
not enough, so the coal is paid for in
measure of capacity and the cars are
made oversize to squeeze the miner
still more.
When the coal is blasted, picked,
broken up, loaded into cars, hoisted
to the surface, picked free from slate,
screened from fine stuff and ready for
market, it is shot into freight cars at
the breaker and the railroad company
allows it's operating company from
81. 20 to $3.50 ton. A locomotive is
hooked on and the coal is hauled
away to the consumer, where the coal
trust agents are compelled to sell it
for 81 u ton or more. Coal is loaded
from chutes. 1t is carried in the
cheapest class of cars. 1t is not SUBJ
ject to damage from the weather.
The consumer is in better position
than the miner because he can ford
to pay the eXorbitant rate. He is not
risk!ng his life every hour in earning
his money rs the miner risks his in
producing coal. He can get an occa-
sional raise of pay if his salary is in
adequate for his living expenses, or
if his services are worth more money.
He can buy his food and clothing, il
not his fuel, where he pleases. The
miner must consent to absolute slav-
cry to the coal trust because the trust
demands every penny Of profit that
can be squeezed out of each operation
Of coal production. 1t is the most
cruel, rapacious and wicked tyranny
that exists in the world today. The
barbarouS sultans OF the Malay
tribes, who can order hundred
heads struck off to crafty momen-
tary pique, are kinder to their sub
jects. Their fits of temper are occa-
sional. The grind of the coal trust is
perpetual and without f1uctuation.

A DiabOlical Combination.

From the Detroit News.
There is no other despotism in the
world so selfish, so exacting and SO
1t is doubtful If there ever has been
anything to compare with it since the
most evil days of the Roman empire.
1t is spectacle which shows absolute
power exercised to the limit. The
trust manipulates men, and it sacri-
fees human flesh and blood as a
chess player throws away his pawns
for the sake of guarding the more i'm
portant pieces. In this case there is
but one important piece on the board,
and that is "profits." Nothing else
is thought worthy of consideration.
The anthracite coal region is cross
ed and recrossed by several railroad
systems. These railroads have ma
nipulated and squeezed until seven
eighths of the coal properties are in
their hands. They are in position
of absolute control. Their close com
bination enables them to absolutely
control freight rates, and thus they
are able to control every detail oil
mine operation. They organize oper-
ating companies for the mines quite
separate from the railroad business.
Mines are placed in charge of operat.

probably for the first time in the his
tory Of the county. Colin Ferguson,
Register in Chancery, who was ap-
pointed by the Governor, will retire in
favor of Joseph c. Jolls, who was elect
ed by the people of the county. Calvin
w. Crossan, who was appointed Regis
ter of Wills by the Governor in a
Democratic administration, will retire
in favor of Frederick +. Bach, also
elected by the people. The new Consti-
tuition provided for the election Of
county officers by the people, but those
appointed by the Governor held on un-
til their terms expired. Messrs. Fergu-

their terms will expire on Wednesday
next
