southwestern paper under an Albu-

mind one of the leaders of those days.
Edmund G. Ross. the after-the-war
United States senator from Kansas,
whose vote saved Andrew Johnson
from conviction under the impea CHI

this fact the Albuquerque dispatch
says:

many other indignities heaped upon
him by the Kansas people.
HE lost his printing Office, and
wherever he made application for
work he was refused. He came to
Albuquerque in 1882. He was put to
work on the case in the Journal Office,
and the old man says that this was the
first kind act shown him since leaving
Kansas.
''The other printers demurred, and
finally called on the foreman, threat

continue his work. The foreman
stated that he had investigated the
case and that the old man. driven
from Kansas for performing what he
considered his duty, should remain at

MAGAZINES AND THE TRUSTS.


1t is an exceedingly encouraging
symptom in our national life that the
great magazines of the country are
taking up the exposure of corruption
and dishonest practices in financial and
governmental circles. The magazine
editor of a decade ago would have re-
garded as a lunatic the man who sug-
gested such a thing. Today the most
successful magazines of the country
are making features of articles along
this line. 1t is an encouraging symp-
tom, too, that the publications which
are engaging in this work are building
up tremendous circulations among the
general public.
The stories by Lincoln Steflns. deal
ing with municipal corruption in the
great cities, published in McClure's,
backed up as they were, by absolute
facts, aroused the country to the dan
gers which threatened municipal honor
in this country. The series which Mr..
Ste.fins is now writing concerning cor
ruption by big business" in state gov
ernments comes even closer to the pub
lie as a whole than did his municipal
articles dealing with the large cities
At the same time and in the same
publication has been running the his
tory of the Standard Oil trust, by Miss
Tarbell, which inaugurated much of the
present agitation against that organi-
cation. This was followed by the Law
son exposures in Everybody's Maya
zine, and while Mr.. Lawson's motives
may, perhaps, not bear the closest in
spection, the public generally believes
he knows what he is talking about and
that he is telling the truth.
Now Kansas has taken advantage of
~, r IN
these publications and is blazing the
way for the correction of the trust evil,
and the magazine editors are already
sending their writer's to Kansas to tell
what Kansas is doing. Mr.. I. F. Mar
cosson, associate editor of the Worlds
Work, the magazine that is read by the
business men of the country as much
or more than any other publication, is
now here to prepare the story of the
Kansas oil field and it's relation to the
oil trust. while Miss Tarben is prepar-
ing for NcClure's an additional chapter
in the history of the Standard. telling
of its doings in the Kansas field. Doubt
less others will follow.
The articles of Ray Stannard Baker
giving both sides of the labor union
controversies, and particularly his story
Of the Colorado troubles, are others
along the same line.
A few years ago the magazine was
supposed to be distinctly literary in its
character. and it's contents was given
over exclusively to reviews, essays.
stories and poems. Today these are
secondary features in most magazines.
The daily newspaper gives the facts as
they occur from day to day, with edi-
torial comment, thereon, but it is left
for the magazine to come along after
wards with a summary of these facts
and their relation to one another.

and it is in the final outcome of that
litigation that the United States SUI
preme court has upheld the law. Its
moral effect was to practically restrain
the grain dealers association from
illegal practices long ago. A year ago
prosecutions under. the law were insti-
gated against the coal trust by County
Attorney Hungate here in Topeka. and
this litigation is still in court.
Coming at this time the decision
places a powerful weapon in the hands
of public officials who have an inclina-
ton to attempt action against the
trusts. It will no longer be necessary
to carry similar phases of litigation
through the higher courts Action can
be brought not only by the attorney
general but by any county attorney in
whose county a trust operates.
