THE TRUSTS AND A OONSTITU
TIONAL AMENDMENT

Mr.. Livingston, Democratic member of
the House Of Representatives from Georgia,
10 quoted as saying that an amendment to
the Constitution giving Congress the power
10 regulate corporations or trusts can never
he passed. at would strike at the founda
ton Of statehood he said. "The States
would never give up their right in favor of
Congress" II all the Southern States should
take this same view OF it, that would defeat
such an amendment even II It should pass
both houses Of Congress by the requisite
majority and be ratified by all the Northern
aud Western States. The negative vote Of
twelve States will defeat q constitutional
amendment. II is considered no more prob
able, however, that the Northern States
would ratiiy trust amendment than that
the Southern States would. New Jersey,
for Instance, gains enough revenue from in.
cooperating trusts to support the State gov
eminent, and il is believed that State will
not surrender such gold mine to Congress.
In this connection it is regarded by many
AZ a curious assumption that In order to
crush the trusts or make them good il is
only necessary TO give Congress the power
10 do 81. II must be confessed that such
an assumption rests upon an invisible loun.
dalton. II is not at all unlikely that large
proportion of the Senators and many mem
hers Of the House are large holders of trust
stocks. In the past, Congress has been the
best and most consistent friend of the trusts.
Ia the matter of the Cuban Reciprocity bill
at the last session II was shown that the
agent of one of the youngest and smallest
Of the whole family of trusts welded more
power in Congress than the President of
the United States could WELD with all his
patronage. Congress now maintains and
fosters the mother Of the trusts from which
they derive their nourishment-namely, the
protective tatiff-and they refuse To impair
Its usefulness To the monopolies. These facts
and many Others that could he mentioned
seem TO sustain the contention that If Con
gress had the power TO regulate trusts that
power would be used rather to aid them
than To cripple them. In the meantime the
trusts do not seem 10 be unduly alarmed and
Standard OIL stock does not go begging for
apurchaser when there is any for sale, and
the present holders of It are asking 5000
share.
The protests Of the trusts against being
put under control of Congress recall the
pleadings Of Br'er Rabbit when Br'er Fox
got him. "You may bile me, you may roast
the, you may fry me, just so you don't turn
me out in the cole, cole fros. "-Bdlto Sun

The Turning Point.

The capture Of Havana by the Enc.
lsh and their eleven months rule was
undoubtedly an important point in tho
life of Cuba. During the short period
of English government the Cuban ports
were opened to foreign trade, and for
the first time the people realized the
extent of their resources, and the mer-
CHESS manner in which they had been
robbed of their earnings.
But the era Of prosperity was short
as the English soon turned the island
over to Spain and the old system Of
persecution was resumed. However
the Cubans had breathed the air Of
comparative freedom, and they saw the
possibilities of the island under hon.
est government. Instilled with new
born ambition for freedom, the Cubans
carried on secret arrangements for a
general uprising, and the fifty years
following the few months of English
occupancy witnessed succession Of
revolutions. Thes came the Ten Years
War, from 1868 to 1873. followed by
another uprising in 1885. and then the
final struggle beginning Feb. "a, 1896
which resulted in the overthrow of
Spanish rule IN America by the United
States and Cuban forces.

TAPPING MAPLE TREES.
Points For Sugar Makersto Observe at
Beginning of the Season.

There are some points to be observed
even in such a simple matter as tapping
a sugar maple tree. Here are nve points,
just for instance.
Point 1-Only sharp DIT should he
used.-one that will make a clearont hole.
Point 2-The hole need rot be more than
three inches deep. The Investigations OF
the Vermont Experiment Station nave
shown that hardl, any sap comes from
greater iepth.
Point 3-The hole should be carefully
cleaned of chips, because even very small
quantity of waste matter will clog the
spout obstiuct the flow of sap, and seri-
cusly reduce the yield Of sugar.
Point A SPOUT should he chosen or
such a pattern as will allow the freest now
OF sap. 1t should interfere with the wo nd
tissue Of the tree as little as possible. The
park, rather than the wood should play
an important part in holding the spout
firm.
Point 1.-The spout should be strong
enough, and its hold On the tree firm
enough. so that it viii safely support the
san bucket More over the SPOUT should be
easy to insert and easy to remove. Tho
various spouts oomT only sold at the hard
ware stores differ materially In their
merits when judl ed by the foregoing tests.
The sugar maker viii do well to examine
then all carefully before buying his sup
ply for the coming season.

lily tested by going into that State and adj
