Senator Blount; Judge Raney, former
chief justice of the Supreme Court:
Senator Bailey, Senator Gillen, and
others. President Adams and Senators
Wilson, Carson and Peacock advocated
the payment of the smaller amount.
The House passed Speaker Gibbons
antitrust bill. This measure came up
under a special order. 1t aims at the
big trusts and corporations, with the
object of preventing combinations to
restrict competition in trade. Mr.. Glib
bons delivered an eloquent appeal for
the passage of his bin, and strange to
say, not a single voice was raised in
opposition.
The bill is considered the most i'm
portant that has been introduced in
the Legislature this year, as it will
make it possible for small merchants
to live by preventing the trusts from
forcing them to the wall. When put
to a final vote. the measure went
through without a vote being cast
against it.

very plain and unpretentlous. there
were no cushions TO the pews; the con.
gregaton was dressed poorly Never
theless the collection, which Mr.. Brady
had expected TO be small. was an ex-
tremely large one. After 1t had been
taken up, the clergyman said:
Il once heard OF minister who
preached in q strange time where there
were no collection plates. When the
time came for the collection. and this
lack was pointed out. the minister said
that his own hat might be passed
around. Accordingly the black and shin
ing tile traversed the length AMI
breadth Of the church, but Il returned
empty. No one. Il seems had put a
