Something About Trusts.

President Roosevelt 10 his remarks At
Providence, Il. /. gave his attention 70
trusts a. same length. Following are
fe@ paragraphs relating the method Of
dealing @i,h them.
Il believe lh4t The nation must as.
sume this power Of coutrol BY ieglsla.
tion, and il it becomes evident that the
constitution will not permit needed
legislation. then By constitutional
amendments
The Immediate need in dealing With
trusts is 10 place them under the real,
not nominal control Of some sovereign
70 which, a. its creature. the trusts shall
owe allegiance, ard Ia whose courts he
soVereign.s orders may with certainty
be enforced. This ia not the case with
the ordinary so-calied "trust,s TO-DAY.
for the trust is large state corporation,
generally doing business 10 other states
also. and often with a tendency TO
monopoly.
Such trust is sd artificial creature
not wholly responsible TO or control
liable by any Legislature, nor wholly
subject TO the jurisdiction Of any one
court. Some governmental sovereign
must be given full power over these
artificial and very powerful corporate
beings.
In my judgment this sovereign must
be the national government. When il
has been given full power, then, this
full power can be used 10 control any
evil II fuence. exactly as the government
ls low using the power conferred upon
II under the sherman antitrust law"

Fall Trade in Full Swing.
lBRADsTREETs.


Trade developments are still largely
favorable, fall jobbing activity being
widespread and reports as to collections
are more uniformly encouraging than
for long time.
Fall trade is now In full swing at most
of the leading centers. Buying of dry
goods, shoes, clothing and millinery is
liberal. The shoe and leather trade is
In an Interesting condition. Buying of
shoes is active at western points and
manufacturers are busy and sole leather
is active. The New England industry
while in better shape tpan for some time
pasr, reports little money in the busi.
ness.
Leather tends upward and hides are
very strong. Heavy upper and SOLE
leather is especially firm and offers of
some shoe manufacturers to cover their
wants until December or later at present
prices, are rejected. The situation OF
the eastern shoe manufacturers between
the obber who says the shoes must be
sold at price and the leather man who
demands higher prices for his raw mater
ial, Is reported not satisfactory. Shoe
shipments from New Euglaud points are
showing gradual gains from week to
week, but are still below year ago for
the week and the season.
The Somerset reporter., 1902-08-28
Man. Woman and Love.

In one of his books Max O'Rell, the
witty Frenchman, gives the following
advice:
"If you are bald, never make love
to woman taller than you. Looked
at from below. you are all right.
Never let your ladylove see you
without collar; no-not even the very
wife of your bosom. A mans head
without a collar is like a bouquet
without holder.
Never marry woman richer than
you, one taller than you, or one older
than you. Be always gently superior
to your wife In fortune, in size and in
age, so that in every possible way she
may appeal to you for help or protec-
ton. either through your purse, your
strength or your experience in life.
Marry her at an age that will always
enable you to play with her all the
different characteristic parts of hus-
banda chum, a lover. an adviser, a
protector and Just tiny suspicion of
q father"
The Somerset reporter., 1902-08-28

The Manchester Guardian tells a
good story of the weather. The scene
was a Strand omnibus. A leaden sky
was overhead. the rain poured down
uncompromisingly, mud was under
foot. A red capped Parsee, who had
been sitting near the dripping driver,
got down as the conductor came up.
what sort o. chap Is thatT asked
the driver. Don't yer know thatT
answered the conductor. "Why, that's
one O. them Indians that worship the
sum- "Worships the sum-" said the
shivering driver. II suppose 'e's come
over ere to ave n rest"
This recalls the reply given on one
occasion by an eastern potentate to
Queen Victoria, who asked him wheth-
er his people did not worship the sun.
Eyes, your majesty" said the oriental.
land If you saw him you would wor-
ship him also"
The Somerset reporter., 1902-08-28
Hence These Tears.

"Imports of foreign merchandise in
the fiscal year 1902 greater than ever be-
fore in our history? And this under a
so-called protective tariff.
But the free trade exultation over
these large American purchases of for
eign products is bound to be exceeding
ly short-lived. An analysis of the im-
port figures takes all of the Joy out of
the faces Of the foes of the American
system. For the increase in imports is
not at all what is desired by the cham
pions of laissez faire. According to
their theory, the United States ought to
devote itself to farming and leave the
manufacturing to Europe. These cold,
uncomfortable treasury statistics, how
ever, show that the upstart Yankee ma.
ton efuses to accept the dogmas of the
philosophers.
1t is most significant fact that almost
one-half of our total purchases of foreign
merchandise in the fiscal year ending
June 30 was crude or partly finished ma
terials brought In to be worked up by
manufacturers materials were valued at
$2l7, 900, 900 and formed SO per cent. OF
our total imports Of foreign merchan-
disc. In 1902 these crude or partly crude
imports had increased to 46 per cent. On
the other hand, the finished products of
foreign manufacture, whose purchase
and use by the American people the free
trade theory seeks to encourage, came
into this country In 1881 to a value of
$433, 900, 900, and In 1902 to value OF
$484, 900, 900. In 1881 these flushed ar
tlcles formed &c per cent of our total m-
ports; in 1902, So per cent.
What these figures mean is that Amer
lea Is steadily increasing her economic
strength and establishing her industrial
supremacy. We purchase only little
more OF the finished products of Euro
pean factories now than we did two dec
ades ago, although our wealth and pop
ulation have increased vastly In the in
terval. But we do import twice as
much of crude or partly crude materials
for American manufacturing as we did
in 1881. In other words, instead of de-
pending upon Europe to fill large part
of cur most elaborate needs, we are tax
ing Europe's crude materials and work.
ing them up into finished products of
our own.
The regularity with which this ter
dency advances is the despair of Old
World economists. They believe, just
as used to be believed by our old free
traders, that America should permit
Europe to be the workshop, while she
herself should be content to be the
farm. But the United States insists on
being both farm and workshop.--Boston
journal.

not only numbers but strength and the
genuine spirit of the grange, clear head
ed, noble minded sisters and brothers
of the order, both old and young.
Canaan grange realized the advantage
OF having a commodious hall which
though we'll filled was not over crowded.
AS this Was not surprise party the
hall had been tastily decorated with
evergreen and flowers, and a bountiful
feast prepared. The fficers of Palmyra
grange filled the chairs and furnished
the following interesting program /:
After the usual opening exercises the
welcome to visiting members WAS given
by W. Master Foster of Canaan, follow
ed by remarks for good Of the order by
members from Palmyra, Pittsfield aud
Canaan. After short recess the enter
tainment was opened by music by Pal
myra grange quartet, followed by an
original poem by Mrs. Horace Blaisdell
The work Of the order was then exem-
plifed by Palmyra degree staff; readings,

enough to conservatively modify certain
schedules, meet changed conditions
and at the same time successfully resist
the forts of the opposition to revise the
entire tariff law, thus parJly zing busl-
ness for season, | am in favor of it..
| have expressed some doubt, however,
about the wisdom of instructing by reso.
lutions or exaeting pledges from candi-
dates for Congress, when the effect is
liable TO precIpitate protracted debate
with very uncertain results. There
ought TO be some more tangible reason
for such dangerous expedient than the
existence of sentiment in certain local
tiles, now as always, that demands re-
duction of the tariff on articles there con-
sumed and not produced, while it stands
ready 10 fight TO finish any reduction
on the things there produced | do de-
clare there has never been revision of
the tariff In the interests of free trade,
or for revenue only, that has not proven
as fatal TO business as the plaques of
Egypt.
II have never seen the time since
have given public questions considera-
ton that | would not reduce the rate on
quite large number OF items, nor when
| would not increase the rate on other
items. 1t is not likely that any member
of either house of Congress ever voted
for tariff bill entirely TO his liking, nor
is it probable that any president ever
signed bill that he would not have
changed in some particular had it been
iD his power.
The Republican party in my State
recently affirmed the tariff platform of
1901. 1t has been misIepresented, mis-
quoted, miseonstrued and msappled.
This platform unanimously was adopted
both years. Its statements are academ-
ically correct. Every man in the United
States. Republican and Democratic,
believes in changes in the tariff from
time to time as becomes advisable
through the progress of our industries
and their changing relations to the COM
merce of the world. 1t also declares in
favor of any modification of tariff sched-
ules that may be required to prevent
their atfording shelter to monopoly.
