GOV. VAN SAINT.

Gov. S. r. VAN SAINT. of Minnesota,
who is doing more practical work against
the trusts than any other man in the
country. and making less noise about it,
entered upon his second term Jan. &, and
in his inaugural message set forth his pol
icy in words of no uncertain sound. He
said:
''The Executive officers Of the State are
doing and will continue to do all in their
power to defeat this connection. 1t may
be that the courts will decide that the
laws of one State can be evaded or viO-
lated by means of a corporation organized
under the laws of another State: if so,
all the benefits of the more perfect IN
ion,' so earnestly sought by the trainers
of the Constitution and SO much desired
by all law-abiding citizens. will not be
realized. / have an abiding faith, how
ever, that the laws of the State will be
sustained, and that the attempt to evade
them in the manner stated will be de-
feated."
Among other things ne recommended
that the 4 per cent. gross earnings tax law,
which failed of ratification at the last
election, be resubmitted. He made an
other recommendation on entirely differ
ent lines. to the effect that $150.0O0 be ap-
propriated for the establishment of SAN
itarium for consumptiyes in the pine
woods district.

HIGH PRICES OF MEAT.

Assistant Secretary of Agriculture Brig
hams statement last week that the Trust
was not responsible for the high prices Of
meat. but the retail dealers were. has been
an electric shock which will result in great
relief to housekeepers generally. There is
no doubt of the truth o. this statement.
for the prevailing prices of livestock on
the farms and at the abattoirs will not at
all justify the high prices charged by the
retailers. With native steers selling in
Chicago from S4.24 to $3.50. it is extor-
ton to charge 30 cents pound for porter
house steak. and 20 cents pound for
round steak. 1t appears that the great
abattoir firms Immediately reduced their
prices to the retailers, but these had gotten
so infatuated with the high prices that
they could not bear to reduce their profits.
We had the same thing a few years ago
when the extraordinary drop in wheat and
-four occurred. The bakers made no
change in the size or price of their loaves.
and for years made the most remarka bic
profits. The bakery was the best invest
ment q man could have. and it was not un-
usual for quite ordinary-sized establish
ments to return a clear profit Of $4,000 or
100000 a year. This is one feature of the
Trust business for reformers to look into.

SENATOR CULLoM. for his colleague.
Senator Mason, who is now having a
hard time with his fences in Illinois.
makes long stride toward paternalism
by the introduction of a bill providing
that whenever any coal mine remains un-
operated to the prejudice of the people
the Acknowledgement shall apply to the
court for receiver and if the court finds
II necessary for the general welfare it
shall appoint receiver to operate the
mine and turn over all the proceeds to
the owners whenever the court shall de-
termine that the public interests are no
longer suffering. The passage of such a
bill would certainly make a new departure
In our policy. If the Government could
seize a coal mine and operate it. it could
seize anything else. There is no reason
why it should not run a butchers shop
when the retailer raises the price of meat
exorbitantly, or baker shops when the
bakers refuse a reasonable price for their
loaves. We should have socialism upon
rs at once.

THE rRANs-pAc1E1c CABLE.

The laying of cable across the Pacific
to communicate with our new possessions
goes on with praiseworthy speed. New
Years Day San Francisco and Honolulu
exchanged their first greetings under the
sea.
Another link will soon be laid between
Honolulu and the Midway Islands. 1000
miles away. to be followed at once by q
third link Of $1,000 miles to Guam. when
a fourth link Of 1000 miles will carry it
into Manila Bay, and make the line com
plete. This will be attained before the
end Of the year. tolls will be reduced from
$l.66 word to 81. and we can reach our
armies. our ships. and our civil officials at
once. over a wholly American line. instead
Of literally going around the world. with
II different relays and no end of changes
of languages. and inspections BY all sorts

In view of the probable complications in
China il is highly important that none but
American citizens have access to messages
sent by the Government to its Generals,
Admirals, and civil officials.

old home at New Richmond, 0.
Comrade II. G. ST. Pierre, who now
holds the high position of one of the JUS
tees of the Superior Court of the Province
of Quebec, was fully expected at the last
National Encampment by host Of friends
in the Grand Army of the Republic, but
the pressure of business in his court pre-
vented his leaving for so long time, and,
besides. he was attracted to the reunion
of his own regiment the 10Th N. Y, in
which he held the rank of Corporal. He
went thither and the warmth of greeting
from his old regiment compensated for his
missing the National Encampment.
Mrs. Mary Ann Greenwood Buford,
widow of Gen. Napoleon B. Buford, of the
Regular Army, 9th III. and brevet Major
General of Volunteers, died at Chicago

in Washington society, and personally ac-
quainted with many great men of the
Daniel Webster period.
Those who have seen Gen. Fred Grant

GEN. BoYNToN wants an appropriation
from Congress to improve the road from
Crawfish Springs to Stevens Gap in the
Chickamauga National Park. This is a
stretch of road about 10 miles long over
which the preliminary operations of the
Union army were made. The road over
which the Confederates made their pre-
liminary movements-from Lee and Cor
don's Mills to Lafayette-has already
been improved. and this work Is desira-
BILE, also, in view of the Park being made
general rendezvous for portions of the
Regular Army and the National Guard of
several Southern States.

THERE has always been considerable
anxiety among fnanciers as to what can
be made the basis of National bank cir
cuiation. The present system of basing
the notes upon United States bonds is
entirely satisfactory, but the constant ten
dency is to reduce the public debt and
therefore to take away this basis, which
would curtail the circulation probably in
a dangerous way. All attempts to find
a satisfactory substitute have failed. The
notes cannot he based upon State bonds
because, while most of the States are en-
as much as those of the United States
there are several whose bonds are very
much deprecated. OF course. it would
not do to differentiate between the bonds
of one State and another. Then. the Su-
preme Court has decided that the United
States cannot compel any State to pay its
debts. Very many of the railroads bonds
are quite as good as the United States or
State bonds, but the same objection
arises. There are many railroads which
are not good. and if the Government ac-
cepted any bonds it would become the in
dorser of the bonds to the people, thing
not to be tolerated. Senator Fairbanks
seeks to partially meet this difficulty by
a law making the bonds issued to con-
struct the fsthmian Canal security for
National Bank notes. Inasmuch as the
United States indorses these notes, they
The bill also reduces the tax upon the

The following features of the Act are
especially interesting to veterans, mas

The strong works into which Hardee

Kilpatrick's indefatigable cavalry, their
horses sinking to the knees in the mire,
their dismounted men moilins through the

REpREsENirAr1vE PARKgR. o,

REPRESENTATIVE PARKER. of New
Jersey, has proposed an amendment to
the Constitution of the United States
which readst
mo State shall legaiize bigamy or
polygamy or, any contract for bieamous
or polygamausl association, nor authorize
the descent or distribution of property at
the death of any man to his children by
any woman to whom he has or shall not
have been joined in lawful wedlock.''
1t would hardly seem that the danger
from polygamy is so urgent as to require
a Constitutional Amendment. as the force
of public opinion everywhere, which is
stronger even than the Constitution, is SO
strenuous against polysamy that the insti-
tuition can never be revived. However, if
it will do any good to have Constitu-
tional Amendment, let us have one.

GREAT PRODUCTION IS SECURED
Americas to Have Grand Opera In
October.


Americus playgoes and lovers of the
art divine have an unusual treat in
store in the coming here this season Of
the newest and brightest star in the
operatic constelIation-M Mise Rose CO
ella Shay, the beautiful and talented
Cincinnati society girl, now the rage in
musical circles.
It will be her first tour, and a til
umphal one, certainly.
Not in years has any attraction, the
equal of this one, been brought here,
and it will easily be the theatrical
and society occasion of the season in
local musical circles.
Messrs. Jones & Dudley only secur-
ed this opera troupe at great cost, and
a packed house should greet it. The
company includes sixty two talented
artists, full orchestra, and carries
two carloads of scenery required in
this splendid production. October
10Th. is the date for Americas.
Recently the enthusiastic friends Ct
Miss Shay, recognizing her great pos
sibilities in grand opera, organized
stock company of $25, 900 to thus fur
ther her ambitions.
The company which has been organ
lied to support Miss Shay this season
is probably stronger than any grand
opera company that ever went out of
New York since the old days of the ia
nous MapIeson organization, and the
best in the south in many years.
Americus will give welcome.
Such attractions as this should, and
must, receive a liberal patropge if our
playgoers expect return engagement.
