Philadelphia Record.

It is only six weeks since the admin
istration instituted proceedings for an in
junction against the General Paper COM
pany of. Wisconsin on the ground that 1t
was an unlawful trust and combination
in restraint Of trade, and how the news
from Appleton, in that state, is that a
new pulp mill combination has been
formed and Is to be Incorporated in New
Jersey, of course. Is this scheme for
circumventing the attorney general?

Chicago Papers Discuss Our New
=. .'.-s
 Governor.

The Chicago papers give considerable
attention to Governor Johnson's speech
in that city last Saturday night, not
only reporting it at considerable length,
but discussing it editorially. The
Chronicle, which has become the most
conservative newspaper in Chicago, says
that with some truth there was much
undiscriminating denunciation in the
address, of Governor Johnson The
Chronicle comedies that. corporations en-
ioying more or less Of the advantages
Of monopoly have in various ways used
their great power to infict injury and
wrong upon the public. But the Chron-
Gle is not willing to follow Governor
johnson in his statement that I'VE are
confronted with centralized CONNER
cialism more than feudal in it's power.
The principles Of Washington, Jefferson
and Lincoln are supplanted in America
by the influences Of Hartman, Armour
and Rockefeller. The Chronicle
thinks Mr.. johnson overstated the facts
because these, influences did not elect
President Roosevelt, and have not pre-
vented him from favoring legislation to
control them. The recent voting Id
the house on the railway rate bill, the
Chronicle things, did not show that
that body is dominated either by the
railroads or by the section which Mr..
johnson referred to as dominating
namely. the east.
The Chicago Tribune on the other
hand says That Is was 9 powerful
speech made by Governor Johnson be

night. It struck q responsive chord in

Perhaps the day will come when the
government will drive lance into this
monster that will let out som69of the
corruption inside. Perhaps this time
is close at hand. The people would
like to see something tangible come out
of the Kansas fight and the government
investigation, and it looks as tho some
thing would come.
But to the financiers of Wall street
the Standard is invincible. They have
seen it stand against the assaults Of in
terests and commonwealth, have seen
it use corruption where it could not
otherwise succeed, and crush down mer
cilessly where it could not win over
They have seen it grow SO great and
strong that few men now are brave
enough to antagonize it, and they have
come to believe that nothing can stoI
tie spread of its power.
But it may be that Wall street i:
mistaken at last, that the ".death knel
of the Standard heralded abroad il
every attack upon it for the past quar-
tor century, may be The real thing thi'
time. The people are thinking more
about these trust matters today thar
ever before, and if the people decide

There is this difference between the Oil

that this Is an important difference.

she was an Objectionable character

neighborhood last night between ten

to police headquarters a couple Of
times and asked for an officer to
make raid on the dance.
She claimed that she was not the
kind OF person the managers of the
dance declared she was and that she
had been grossly insulted and her
feelings hurt by being ordered out
of the place. She called headquarters
a couple of times and then decided to
take matters in her own hands. Co
ing home she told her tale to her
mother and the two went to the nall
to make a general cleaning up.
In the meantime an officer had been
dispatched to the scene where the car.
mage was to take place and he finally
was able TO persuade the girl and her
mother to go home.
