THE PoRER OF HOPE.

Hope springs eternal in the human breast. So yesterday afternoon Sir Thomas Lipton's fiotilla. consisting of the Shamrock H., the Shamrock l.. the steam yacht Erin and the ocean tug Cruiser, whose combined crews number TO men. sailed from Gourock bay for Sandy Hook. Great crowds of people bade them farewell, flags were every where displayed and bands, whistles and sirens combined with the cheering of the spectators to give the cup chal- lenger a great sendoff. The bands play ed such airs as Rule Britannia and ''The Dear Little Shamrock"
 This is proper. It is also wonderful when the past is considered. It takes a lot of hope. pluck and money to come after the cup again. Hope, confidence, pluck, skill and money are enlisted in it's defence, and if Sir Thomas gets it he will be well entitled to it. Whether he gets it or not he and his supporters are we'll entitled to the respect of those who admire courage in the face of disaster.

fl QUEER AND QUIET BOOM.

The Cleveland boom isn't very active
 or conspicuous just now. but we sup pose it is still in existence. The Wash ington Post assumes that 1t is. and makes some rather pointed criticism of MT. Cleveland's part in it. "In permit ting himselS to be boomed for third Presidential term," says the paper, when word fitly spoken would have put a stop to that performance-to a booming that is generally regarded as worse than folly-Mr. Cleveland has grieved many of his judicious friends. They cannot imagine that he desires, or thinks it possible, to get another nomination, nor can they suspect him capable of believing that, if he were nominated. he could be elected. Why. then,' they ask themselves, is he per hitting this booming to go on? Why has he not repressed this mistaken zeal?' The suggestion that it would be indelicate for him to decline before he is formally asked is nonsense"
 Many will think there is more truth than poetry in this criticism. Of course if Mir. Cleveland were really afraid the lightning might strike him again and is he really didn't want it to he could say so in a way that would be under stood. By the way, that is curious statement which is made by the Brook lyn Eagle the chief Cleveland boomer. It says: If. as Mir. Chandler says, the captains of commerce are hostile to Roosevelt, deliberate and determined bids for that hostility have been made. One os the essentials to the continu- ance of prosperity is confidence, and with confidence the captains of com- merce can depend upon Grover Cleve- land. Hence the Cleveland boom. for which, by the way, there are other req sons, too numerous to mention.'

1PPAR ENTLY ADE0UATE LAW.

Awhile ago it seemed doubtful that the bad trusts could be reached by. the law. Now it looks very much as if they could be, How searching and ef- fective the law may be is indicated by a decision which has just been given by the United States Circuit Court of Appeals. The question before the court was whether a voluntary association" which fixed no prices on the goods han dled by it's members is repugnant to the Sherman Antitrust law. The as- sociation is composed of active" and inactive members, the former being mantel and grate dealers in California and the latter the encaustic tile manu- lecturers of the United States, an Eng fish firm and an Ohio foundry com pany The bylaws of the association provide that any acceptable" dealer of San Francisco or vicinity may be- come an 'active' member, while all manufacturers of tiles in the United States may become nonresident mem bers by paying nominal entrance fee and subscribing to the rules. The rules prohibit members from buying certain articles from any persons ex- cept members or selling these articles to non-members at less than list prices. The prices to members were 60 per cent. less than to outsiders. After the association was formed a San Fran cisco dealer, who was not member, was unable to purchase materials as cheapIy as before from the Indiana concern with which he had formerly dealt In order to fulfill his contracts he was compelled to buy at the higher price from a. San Francisco manufac- turer. The dealer brought suit for damages under the Antitrust act against the Tile, Mantel and Crate As- sociation of California and also against the San Francisco manufacturer who was member of that association. The Circuit Court of Appeals for the Northern Circuit gave judgment for the plaintiff. It is contended by coun- sel for the defendants that the trans action was a purely local one and not within the scope of the Federal statute as to interstate commerce. It is al- legged that as between the dealer and the manufacturer the association made no attempt to fix prices. Finally, it is eontended that the association could not be in restraint of trade or a monopoly when any local dealer or manufacturer could become a member. Notwithstanding these contentious, the United States Circuit Court of Appeals decided that the operations of the as- sociation are in conflict with the Sher- man Antitrust act.
 The case has been appealed to the United States Supreme court, and it
