The men who claim to be the mas

They mean to be the masters Of labor

They are all the same men. 1t is all
one great conspiracy, and the conspir-

miners gave the conspiracy its first
black eye. They whipped it to a finish
and with their starving bodies built

Had these men broken the miners of

People Pay Trust Fines.

Inc I'VE Dig packing concerns VINO
were recently fined for violating the
Missouri antitrust laws, and who
promptly paid the fines, have raised
the price of dressed meat to butchers
from $3.50 to $3.50 per 100 pounds,
and coolly informed the indignant
butchers that they may consider them.
selves lucky if another dollar is not
added to the price.
What the butchers must pay to the
trust, the consumers are compelled
to pay to the butchers, and so this
fine, imposed upon the packers for
depressing the public, is being paid,
not by the packers, but by the still
further oppressed public.
1t is clearly apparent that the pun
ishment awarded the packers is not
punishment to them at all, but punish
ment to the innocent, suffering public.
No doubt the packers are laughing
in their sleeves over this opportunity
TO teach the public that prosecution
of trusts does not pay.
OF course, there is plenty of law
against this sort Of thing.
The only question is whether there
are courts that will enforce the law.
If the statutes of Missouri do not
amply cover the case, then the stat
utes of the United States, which are
supposed to be operative in Missouri,
provide distinctly that men who con.
spire together for restraint of trade
may, upon conviction, be sent to jail.
Here is a sort of punishment not so
easily shifted as fine. It cannot be
loaded off on the public. The guilty
trust magnate, duly convicted, must
wear the stripes himself. And they
would be very becoming in many in
stances that might be named.
The Missouri packers have clearly
shown how Ineffective is fine. The
public must pay the fine and costs,
while the offenses continue in agra
waited form.
At once trust organs all over the
land point to the Missouri incident as
evidence that prosecution of trusts
does not pay; that it must ever be in
effective of good, and that powerful
combinations of capital cannot be
controlled.
But prosecution can be made to
pay.
1t can be made effective.
The case st hand shows only that
fines are Ineffective. The jail remedy
remains to be applied.
The only weakness yet disclosed
lies in the method of administering
the law, not in the law itself.
If thieves were merely fined a small
amount of their plumber and turned
loose to steal again, how long would
any portable property be safe?
1t Is the jail and penitentiary SEN
fences that count.
The criminal element in trust extor-
ton remains to be given judic ial con-
sideration. A few Jail sentences will
throw an entirely new light on the
situation.-St. Paul Daily News.

CONSOLIDATION OF RURAL SCHOOLS

Inc QueSLlOn OF Inc COnSOllQ aL1On OF
the rural SCHOOLS il one that must at
tract more and more attention. The
present system of small school dis
tricts is unsatisfactory. 1t has grown
out of the natural desire of parents to
get schoolhouse as near their home
as possible. But while thus making
it more convenient for the scholars to
get to school it has weakened the
power of the school for good. Most
of the districts are too small to be
able to maintain school long enough
each year to give all pupils a chance
to attend enough TO really count for
much. The larger pupils get little
benefit of any school except during
the months of November, December,
January aud February. March is a
''breaking up' month, when the older
pupils begin to leave, being needed at
home, and it is too cold or too slushy
for the smaller pupils. For the latter,
September, October, April, May and
June are the better months. Few of
our rural districts are rich enough to
maintain school during all those
months.
Again, the small district, which gen.
orally gives most attention to the
needs of the smaller children, will
have two short terms, one in the fall
tor about two months and the other in
the spring for about three months.
Good teachers do not care for such
short terms, unless the salary is made
very high, and such district cannot
afford to pay high salaries. The re-
suit is that the district gets not only
very little school but also gets young
and inexperienced teachers, thus max
ing the short term worth still less to
the scholar.
1t was to remedy this condition that
the law allowing consolidation of ru-
raj schools was adopted. After the
consolidation of two or more districts
a central schoolhouse is erected, pro-
Viding for as many rooms and grades
as needed. The district hires some
men to go around with carriage to
bring the pupils to and from school.
In this way the smaller children can
attend school practically during the
whole term. BY dividing the pupils
into grades each teacher can take care
OF greater number. There are many
towns now having five schoolhouses
and the same number of teachers,
where one schoolhouse and three
teachers could accommodate them to
much better advantage. The district
could afford to have longer terms and
could get the best class of teachers
without any burdensome increase in
salaries. The larger pupils, who now
have either to go without schooling or
go to the villages to attend school,
could get their education in their home
district and still be a help around
hoAae,' instead of being an expense to
their parents if they are to attend the
village school.
The system has been tried in many
places, and seems to work satisfac-
torily everywhere. We have just be-
fore US paper read by Prof. Erhart
of Pleasant Grove, Olmstead county,
detailing the experience of that school
since the consolidation. The paper is
too long for republishing, but we clip
his summary of results:
There is larger enrolment.
There has been a better, more pune
tual attends nce.
They get more months of school.
They are brought in touch with
