AGRICULTURE BLOCKED.
Death of Caraboes Impedes II I'm the
Philippines.

Manila. Nov. 30.--The efforts to. re-
store agriculture in the Philippine ISL
ands has been blocked by a dearth Of
field animals. Ninety per cent. of the
caraboes died in the original epidemic
of rinderpest, and. of the small num-
Der imported since. many have died.
The government had planned an ex-
tensive Importation of these animals to
meet the needs and had arranged to
have them immunized. 1t was forced
to abandon this plan on account of lack
OF money to meet the purchases. The
general cultivation of the plantations is
impossible without them, and the abb
sence of any immediate prospect of
getting the field animals leaves the
agricultural situation in serious con-
ditiou.

Omaha, Neb., Nov. 30.-Col. Mosby,
special land agent for the government,
who is to testify before the Federal
grand jury here tomorrow with re-
gard to illegal fencing OF public lands
in Western Nebraska, denies having
severely criticised the Nebraska sem
ators, as stated in dispatches to East
ern papers.
On the day after his arrival here a
local paper contradicted the report on
Mosby's authority. He also denies
saying that the President would use
cavalry to tear down the fences. He
was asked what would be done If the
cattlemen should fail to remove their
fences. He replied that Grover Cleve-
land sent a company of cavalry to pull
down fences in California, and he
supposed the same thing might hap
pen In Nebraska.

TRUSTS IN GREAT BRITAIN.

One could read the free-trade papers
months and never get an idea OF the extent
that real trusts monopolize the trade and
the trusts because they are the foes of
protective tariff and not the enemies of
monopoly. The truth is Great Britain is
the mother of real trusts, because until
the policy of protection was established
Great Britain was a century ahead of the
world in manufacturing industries. Hav-
ing such lead. British manufacturers and
merchants were the first to enter into COM
binations to maintain prices by controlling
production under one general management.
The story of the control of British produc-
ton and trade by combinations is not new
one unless a free-trade paper should hap
pen TO tell It, The Contemporary Of March,
1899. a British magazine, contained an ex-
haustive article written by Fl. W. Macrorty
entitled. 1.-THE Growth of Monopoly in En-
glish Industry" in which he used the fol-
lowing languages:

excluding competition. control the screw

BLOOMINGTON. Ind, Oct. Ex-senator
Beverage was given great ovation In
Bloomington to-day and addressed an audi
ence tonight that taxed the capacity OF
the opera house. The people crowded In
until every inch of available space was
taken. 1t was a crowd filed with enthusi-
asm and included many students and
women.
William F. Browning presided and Sena-
tor Beverage was introduced by James
b. Wilson, Republican candidate for circuit
judge. He spoke for an hour and half,
discussing especially the Philippine ques-
ton. concerning which he said it would be
a lasting disgrace for the United States to
give up single foot of the territory ac-
quired from, Spain. The senator also dis
cussed the question of the trusts, showing
conclusively that they were not the result
of tariff legislation. In all the meeting has
never had an equal in Bloomington by any
political party, and the result will be a
great benefit to the entire ticket.
This morning Senator Beveridge visited
the II. b. Gentry stock farm, and this after
noon gave a short address TO the law stu
dents of Indiana University. Senator Bev-
eridge has spoken here every campaign
since his graduation from De Pauw, and Is
a great favOrite In Bloomington.

Iican MajOrities Will He Given.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
MADISON, Ind, Oct. 10-The speaking
campaign in Jefferson county is now on in
earnest and meetings are being held nearly
every day. John T. Ellis. of Anderson, has
spoken three times in the county at the
principal towns during the past week. Last
night large and enthusiastic meeting was
held at Volga, attended by about all of the
Republicans and many of the Democrats
of that locality. Ellis delivered a long and
eloquent speech.
The county is surrounded on three sides
by Democratic strongholds, but has always
been loyal to the Republican cause. Two
years ago Mckinley carried the county by
year will be but little, If any, less. The
principal fight Is being made over the offices
of representative and circuit Judge. NJ. r.
SulZer, former prosecuting attorney and
former representative, is the nominee for
representative and is making strong and
aggressive fight. He will win out hand
somely. Judge Perry f. Bear is a candi-
bench for five years and has made a good
record of prudence, economy and efficiency
i'm office. He will win easy.
Times are good and business is excellent
Crops are good that farmers have had
trouble to obtain hands to gather corn.
Madison is on a boom and is growing
liveler than for many years The Demo-
Gratis are pursuing the still-hunt method,
but the Republicans are aggressivey fore
ing the fighting. Jefferson county may be
put down for from 600 to 500 Republican ma
iOrity.
