About the Trusts.

All the talk about destroying
the trusts will avail nothing. What
has the fight against corporations
amounted to during the last TWEEN
iy-fve years? Corporations have
bull, up this country; they have
pushed ahead where private capi,
tai dared not venture-eveu If it
were able. The corporation WAS
an economic necessity; it WAS in
the line of industrial evolution.
The OK cart, the spinning wheel aud
the shoe.shop had TO give way to
the railroad, the mill and the fac
tory M capital combined To bnild
and operate great enterprises.
The trust IL ia line of further
economic evolution; i, can produce
aud distribute the necessities of
life vt = nominal cost. both of
money and Of labor. But the trust.
like the corporation, can be con.
trolIed by those who own them
aud by no one else. And !, il now
up to the people to say who shall
own the trusts. Shall il be tho
good men. the bad men. few men
or wll men?

The Last Sad Rites.

Sunday afternoon the citizens of
Monte Vista gathered at the Nj. T.
church to pay their respects to the
late DIR. Frank Fulton who for
seventeen years had been nm active
and highly esteemed member of
this community. The church was
filed and the congregation listened
to most fitting culogy by Rev. l..
l.. Peters of Trinidad, formerly
pastor of the Christian church of
this city.
Rev. Peters is liberal and an
advanced thinker and rs such he
measures men from Il broader
standpoint than creeds permit.
He recognizes IN man II spark of
the DIVINE which, III the great
hereafter, will unfold and become
like HIM; that as man dies, so will
he hive again and progress to n
higher and grander individuality.
The change called death Is but nat
ural transformation; man does not
in n moment become an archangcl
nor Is he sen, to the lowest depths,
but will develop. under new cnvi-
ronments, upward and onward
INTO the perfect man.
Such was the belief which the
deceased held. and 1t was this faith
that carried him down to the shore
and across the river without II mur-
mcr and without fear.
DIR. Fulton was GOOD man, an
honest man-thc noblcst work of
God. He had no enemies. His
sympathics were always with the
unfortunate aud the oppressed.
And he has gone 10 his reward.

makes a disturbance on the streets

Railrnad EXPANSION.

In the light of recent developments,
:. e on oss9red fact that not only the
pennsylvania Railroad Company but the
southern also will be compelled at an
eorIv dav to expand considerably in
aIeyandria and vicinity in order to meet
The steadily increasing demands upon
tbe;r transportation facilities. The pro-
cess of double-tracking both roads run
ming out of Alexandria is now in prog
ress. and when that work shall have
been completed the depot facilities OF
both roads will be found too contracted.
The Southern, it will be remembered. a
year or so ago purchased all the land
south of their track from point west
of the National cemetery to Hunting
creek, and now have a loop partly around
the city on the south. The company also
owns property east of the railroad tracks
at the south end of Long bridge. The
recent purchase by parties who are be-
lieved to be agents Of the Pennsylvania
Railroad of property north and west Of
Alexandria has led to the belief that that
company is contemplating spending a
large sum of money south of the Poto.
mac. In fact this much is admitted by
people known to be in touch with the
railroad company. Many not natural
born optimists believe this section Of the
State is about to pass through marked
metamorphosis during the next few years.

Mount Vernon Regents.

The regents and vice regents Of the
Mount Vernon Ladies Association who
recently closed their annual council have
published pamphlet containing a por-
trait of Miss Cunningham, the first
regent, and full history of her
life, which is TO be distributed as a me-
mortal. They have placed a handsome
bronze tablet to her memory underneath
her portrait in the South Carolina room.
1t is inscribed:
"To the memory of Ann Pamela Cum
ningham, the founder, in 1858, and the
first regent of the Mount Vernon Ladies'
Association. By her efforts and in re-
spouse to her appeals the purchase money
was raised, and in 1858 the home and
tomb of Washington became the property
of the Mount Vernon Ladies Association
of the Union"
The council also passed resolutions to
have life-sized marble bust of her made
during the coming year and placed in
the Statuary Hall of the Capitol. She
will be the first woman so honOred.

Fight at Motley Hall.

There was trouble Sunday night at
the Motley Hall opposite this city among
negro excursionists, in the course of
which one man was shot and had to be
taken to the Alexandra Hospital for
treatment woman was slightly cut in
the throat, and three men we're injured
to an extent which required treatment at
the Emergency Hospital in Washington.
The trouble is said to have begun with
the shooting affair There was some
trouble over woman, and Charles
Dangerfeld, a special policeman from
Washington, who was at Motley
Hall in the capacity of an excursionist,
forgot he was outside of the boundary of
his jurisdiction, and essayed the privilege
of an officer in using his gun. Danger
field was arrested by Special Deputy
Sheriff J. X. Seben, colored, who turned
him over to an assistant for the moment.
When Seben returned he found the pris-
oner had made his escape. A few moments
later the row started in which the men
named were cut. This was over dis
pute as to which section of Washington it
is best to live in.
