Trusts and MatFlmOny.

President Rpossv"lt's recent remirls>
upon tho Rpea of larger families and
more general obRervance OF the social
pbligatian Of marriage will be recalled
with new interest Low that congress 10
expiring without single adequate
measure OF antitrust legislation.
Marriage is the normal condition Of
mankind. 1t is safe to say that tha
Vaat majority OF men ana women who
pass the marrying stage in single "hless'
ednesa" can render some reason salts
factory at least to themselves, for their
Aup marriage, Qeibacy is in very few
gases the result Of absolute preference.
Hence it is a part Of consistency and
wisdom for those who rehuke the nom
married TO do their best to promote
thoss conditions which go to en- n,oursge
matrimony and MIKE its assumption
easy. The restraint Of trusts would
mspiteLtly be one OF these, Every IN
tslhRsHt American knows that PRICES
are extraordinarily high, and that the
operations Of the trusts, suppressipg
pSturAl competition, have great deal
70 do with these, Every intelligent
American, too, knows that the high
cost OF living has direct bearing upon
tho decision OF sensible people OF saall
juuomes and modest prospects as to
whether or not to undertake domestic
responsibilities, Let us have lower
prices and We will have larger families.
Tho President cap not. on sober second
thought, condemn young men for taking
tho cost Of living into account when de-
batting matrimony. We remember
hearing Doctor Rainstord, the energ ct
Ic rector of st. Georges Episcopal
church IN New York, say in 3 Pittsburg
pulpit; "The young man who uarries
and tries to raise family OIL less than
$1,000 year will tail, and deserves to
fail" and young man who was listening
interje cted sotto woe; Nov. doctor
you're shouting" And that was be-
fore the trusts had captured every
thing.-PittSburg press,

COAL CARS HELD UP.

Arcola. ILL.,, which in the past two
weeks has suffered fuel famine, last
night had coal to burn. An Illinois
Central train loaded with fifteen cars Of
coal, stopped there Saturday to repair
the locomotive. The coal was confisca-
ted by body of citizens. Efforts to buy
the coal from the railroad company were
fruitless and the crowd, which had III
creased to 500 or 900 people, set to work
to unload it. Many prominent citizens
assisted in the raid. Among the number
were Col. j. r. Beggs, president Of the
First National Band; Thomas Lyons,
president OF the State Bank; Rev. Edw.
Beach, pastor of the Presbyterian Church;
Rev. William f. Prout, pastor OF the Free
Methodist Church; Policeman Craft,
prominent merchants and scores OF other
citizens. The raid was an astoundingly
cool proceeding. Fate in the guise of II
broken engine brought the opportunity.
Selling their chance, committee OF
leading residents presented themselves
before the train crew and carried on
colloquy something after this order:
ave are committee representing peo-
ple of Arcola. We need coal and We
want to buy this" 1--WE have no au-
thority to sell you the coal, replied the
spokesman of the crew. "Will you,
then, ask the officials of the railroad
company in Chicago by wire if we
can buy the coal on this train" "Cer-
tainly," said the trainman, appre-
ciating that there was ring of deter
mination in the questions. In due time
the answer came back from Chicago that
the company refused to sell the coal and
that it must be taken through to its
destination as soon as possible. ''Tben
we shall proceed to take your coal, "
declared the committee. owe are law
abiding, but the law of humanity in this
case rises above the statutes" " "You
will take the coal at own risk" said the
trainmen. "We assume all response
bility for that action" replied the COM
mittee. "You will make forcibe re-
sistance at yourperil. The train shall not
be moved until the people Of Arcola are
supplied" Organized seizure was then
resorted to. A weigher was selected
and word was sent throughout the town
that coal could be had for the asking.
Teams rushed to the cars and the COM
mittee of citizens helped to fill the wa
gons, the weigher keeping an account Of
the amount each person obtained, to-
gether with his name. BY 10 O'Clock
800 teams were hauling away the con-
fscated coal as fast as they could. The
work was kept up all day, and the fuel
famine was broken.
A coal train of $50 cars on the Boston
and Albany tracks in Chelsea, Mass,
was raided yesterday by about 100
persons, who succeeded in carrying of
about 10 tons before the policesarrived.
The train hands were helpless. The
crowd, driven from one car, swooped
down on another at the other end of the
train. Bags, pans and barrels filled
with coal were carted off. When the
police arrived two men were arrested,
while Is bags filled with coal were found
beside the tracks left by persons who
had fled to escape arrest.

BLIZZARD IN THE WEST.

Advices from st. Paul, MIMI, say
that although the thermometer regis
tered only 20 below zero, yesterday was
one of the most disagreeable of the
winter. A high northwest wind greatly
intensified the cold. Fuel is scarce and
high.
The lowest temperature Of the present
cold weather was 40 above zero early
Yesterday morning at Kansas City. A
sharp wind made yesterday the most
uncomfortable of the winter. There is
much suffering among the poor, owing
to the high price of coal. In. many
towns of Kansas and western Missouri,
fuel of any kind cannot be purchased.
Thermometers registered g below
zero at Milwaukee, Wis, early yester-
day evening. A very high north wind
is blowing. Similar conditions exist
throughout the State. A number Of
physicians report considerable sickness
in Milwaukee on account of the cold
weather because their patients did not
have sufficient fuel to keep warm.
