NOW HAS BETTER SEAT.
Foraker Will Sit on Republican
Side of the Chamber.

In the rearrangement of seats at
the beginning of the special session
of Congress, Senator Foraker, who
has been on the Democratic side, was
placed on the opposite section of the
chamber on the Republican side. He
has a seat but one removed from
Senator Hanna, Senator Perkins, of
California, being between them.
AS the position was noticed, a fell
low senator declared it a pleasing ar
rangement, as they could now carry
on their warfare concerning Ohio ap-
pointments at closer range. Senator
Foraker was given an enthusiastic
greeting by the audience as he came
down the aisle to be sworn in, arm in
arm with Senator Hanna. AS they
passed a senator he remarkt d that he
was glad to see Ohio was getting to-

How Trusts Work Great Evil.

By their existence, the welfare of
all other industries 8 Threatened;
The prices of food, fuel, light,
water, clothing. medicines, and all
necessaries of life are increased:
The products of the farm and of
labor are cut down in price, and are
held at the mercy of the Trusts;
They control the arteries of trade,
increase freight rates, shut off the
supplies of coal to cut off other in
dustries; cause suffering and distress
among the poor, and force railroads
to grant them special rates and re-
bates:
They subsidize Legislatures, vio-
late their charters, defy the Courts,
threaten U. S. Senators, and treat
the President of the Republic with
disrespect:
They take the coal, and iron. and
oil and gas that God placed in the
earth for the use of all men, and
withhold it from the people, or sell
it to them at exorbitant rates; and
They foster the greatest monopo-
lies that ever were known to civil
ization.
The result of this must be to par.
alyze industry, destroy prosperity,
reduce the people to the position OF
serviled dependents, and compel US
like the highwayman, to give up our
possessions without a righteous
equivalent.
Such power in the hands of the few
must eventually overthrow free gov
eminent. and make us the servile
subjects CT an oligarchy.

Mr.. CANNON, of Illinois, who will
be Speaker of the next House, made
a speech in the House, just before the
adjournment of Congress, in which
he sharply criticized the rules of the
Senate that permitted one member
to obstruct legislation and defeat
the will of the majority in both
Houses. The point was well taken.
Such rule is contrary to the genius
of our Government. Some of the
Senators have criticized Mr.. Cannon
sharply. but they will find that he Is
right, and that the Nation is with
him. While the Senate has the right
to make its own rules, it has not the
right to make rules that will infringe
upon the Constitution or defeat the
will of the people in legislation.
