Decrease Of oIeo Output.

Washington. ID. c., June 13.-There
has been an enormous decrease in the
amount of oleomargarine manufactured
in this country as a direct result of the
law providing that the packages of this
product must be marked plainly, so
that the consumers may know exactly
what they are buying, and imposing a
tax of 10 cents pound an all oleomar-
garine colored in imitation of butter.
The figures prepared by direction of
the commissioner of internal revenue
show the sale of oleomargarine for the
ten months ending April 80 last
amounted to 64,511,1Sl pounds, as
against 99,3S2,S03 pounds in the same
months a year before, q decrease of 34,
S51.622 pounds. The tax was paid on
62,295,440 pounds of the uncolored arti-
Gle, and on 2,215,741 pounds of the col
ored product.

attending the Lutheran synod, was
asked:
What is the best and most feasible
solution of the trust question:"
The stupendous profits derived from
a few conspicuous monopolies by theie
owners have excited greedy emulation
in almost every line of industry and
trade. The corporations should be
forced to organize and to caIitalize
honestly. The federal government then
should use one of its departme nts as
a sort of trustee for the small stock
holders to look after their interests and
to protect their investments"
Would not this SAVIOR OF pa.ernal-
ism?"
Yes, but the remedy lies in either
paternalism or socialism,
