 IDLE SENTIMENT THAT LITTLE
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1904-09-10
SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 1o 1904

Champ Clark wonders whether the refusal of Hon William Loeb, secre- tary to the president, to permit the coal miners committee to confer with the president will have any constdera- ble effect on coming events. What are regarded as small things have far reaching and tremendous results some times. For instance, many wiseacres trace General Benjamin Harrison's overwhelming defeat in 1892 to the Homestead riots. That was local performance, hut organized labor took up the fight, and General Harrison suffered for the action of Henry c. Prick ct al. So 1t may be again. His tory frequently repeats itself.

Of all factors in the situation much the most important is that we are now gathering an abundant and profitable harvest, says Banker Henry Clews; not quite so abundant as at one time expected, yet suf- fcfently so to secure our agricultur- ists another prosperous year. It makes one shrink to think what might have happened had this been year of crop failures, succeeding the, series of disasters which began in 1902 and continued through 1903. The good harvests of the current year have not only saved the coun- try from a fresh outbreak of liquida- tion, but have really gone long way towards restoring the country's f1- nances and industries to a position of normal soundness and stability. Another year of profitable agricul- ture should afford time and means for better taking care of the mass of indigesible securities created dur ing the last six or seven years
 There is still great mass of indigest- 1bles left, but these will no longer be the menace they once were Some will be reorganized ere long; some will settle down to their intrinsic value, and others will disappear from the market entirely; thus permitting gradual instead of 3 forced liqui- dation, as we'll as a wider and conse- quently less serious distribution of losses. For all of these very 1m- portant advantages we are indebted, as already said, to good harvest.

NEW YORK FASHIONS
Pattern For Girls Frock Designed by Martha
 Dean

While the principal sewing of the mo- ment has to do with wash freeks, it is the economical mother who has bought some material at bargain prices and Is now ready to make the school clothes for the children. Perhaps 1t is not remnant to be made up, but a last years linen gown of mothers that may be made over to do duty for the schoolgirl. A box plaited dress, as is shown here, will af- ford a good model to be lsed. If made without the yoke fading, the popular Nor folk dress is the result. The fullness in the skirt is supplied by double box plait under the arm, or, rather, from the waist, as that is where the plaits begin. This insures full round skirt which is decid- edly pretty. The sleeve is a new model, with tuckS to simulate box plait, afford ing a good space for en1b1ems, which, by, the way, are very Inexpensive and add wonderfully to the appearance of a dark dress. The collar may be either square or round shape If mother wants to make two dresses, the model provides for dis tinct styles, using the Norfolk (witheut the yokes) and the square collar with dress, as illustrated. Mohair, cassimere, serge or any of the summer materials suitable for girls dresses will develop satisfactorily. Pattern No. 4472. Sizes for 5, (, z, 8, g, 10, ii and IF years.

The difference between a trust in a free7trade country and one in a high-tarfff country can be illustrated by the Borax Consolidated, an Eng fish corporation with $16,0OO O0O cap- ital, says one writer. This is world trust, and the Pacific Coast Borax Go, of this country, is the greatest of the twelve companies in the trust, and probably supplies as much borax as all of the other com panies combined. This world trust sells refined borax to-day in this country at "A cents and in England at 21a cents per pound. Much of the borax sold in England is borax from the mines of California, and is refined at Bayonne, N. J., and ex- ported to England The duty on i'm ported borax is cents per pound, and was raised from cents in 1897 by the republicans. When the duty was cents, borax sold here at 5 CSAlS' AS H udIteE Ol u1SIOTy IL may be stated that had there been no duty on borax here there would have. been no world trust. The ex- orbitant profits of the trust here en- abled it to sell borax at less than ? cents per pound in Europe and to force it's competitors to sell their plants at low prices. But this trust is comparatively harmless in free trade England, while it is most harm ful in protectionist America. Pro- lessor Jenks, in the employ of the industrial commission, went to Flu rope in 1901 and made 30O-page re port on Industrial Combinations in Europe" He could enumerate but thirty five trusts in England. He states that "in England the move ment toward combination has not gone so far as in either Austria or Germany" and that the English trusts have had little or no effect in advancing prices, the slight advance during the last two years being due in good part to the increase in the prices of the raw materials"
