and universal, that they consti-
tute, perhaps, the most important
feature of this marvellous century,
and no counter force has in any
way been able to check their pro-
gress. Legislatures, both national
and state, have passed most
stringent laws against trusts and
consultations, and the state
courts have rendered decisions
sustaining these laws and holding
combinations to be illegal, but
without avail. The movement has
gone right on like a mighty river
thatis unconscious of what is said
and done upon it's banks. The
state courts of New York declared
the Sugar Trust to be illegal, but
instead of subsiding Invent ahead
and held the national government
by the throat until it secured its
demands. The courts of Ohio
held the Standard Oil Trust to be
illegal, but the trust is mightier
than ever. The courts of Illinois
held the Gas Trust in the city of
Chicago to be illegal, but it's power
is undimished. These new con-
ditions are not ephemeral, they are
permanent in their character.
First, because it will not be pos
sible to dissolve the corporations
and concentrations of this country
and reduce matters to their former
condition; and, second, because
these great combinations and con-
centrations are in themselves bene-
fetal. They can cheaper produce
tions and in many ways give to
the world a degree of comfort and
pleasure that would not be pos
sible under former conditions.
This is especially true as relates to
transportation, telegraphing, etc.
The question is how to give the
public it's share of this benefit, or
if this cannot be done, then how
to protect the public against ex-
tortion."
If it is true that the era of COM
petition is drawing to a close, and
that we have entered upon new
conditions, and that these are per-
manent, then it is the business OF
the government to recognize these
conditions and legalize them; see
ing to it at the same time that the
public is protected. A govern
ment that stands with it's face to
the past and cannot adjust itself to
the new conditions that are con-
stantly being evolved, is not suited
to this age. F. P. HILBURN.

Judge VIM. N. Nalle Dead.

Judge VIM. N. Nalle, who died
at 3 o'clock A. M, Wednesday,
July 26, 1905, in this city, aged u
years, 8 9months and 6 days, was a
prominent citizen of Frederick
town and for many years occupied
an influential position as an at
torney in Madison county. He
was born October 20, 1882, in
Ohio county, Kentucky, his father
being native OF Virginia, in
which State and also in Kentucky
he had numerous relatives. His
father, whose family was of Eng
lish descent, settled in Virginia at
an early date, and, after the family
fortune became scattered, he
learned and followed the occupa-
ton Of a carpenter. His mother
was a sister of Rev. Jerome G.
Bergman, now of Pennington,
once president of Arcadia college,
and we'll known throughout the
State as an eloquent Methodist
divine. Judge Nalle's family
came to Missouri in 1884 and set
tied in Fredericktown, where he
attended the public schools until
he was fifteen years of age, when
he entered the Arcadia college and
continued his studies there until
he was twenty. He then worked
with his father at the carpenters
trade for about a year, until he
had reached his majority, when he
began the study Of law, and was
admitted to the bar in 1854, hav-
ing made very rapid and satis-
factory progress with his studies.
He Immediately entered upon
his career as an attorney, and soon
had the satisfaction of controlling
a good practice in this and other
counties and in the State courts.
In 1862 he was elected county

Obituary.

Emma Fairchild Vail was born
in Louisiana, Mo-, July 13, 1887.
She was the eldest child of Oliver
H. and Adah w. Fairchild. She
passed away at the home of her
neice, Mrs. Emma Agee, Keytes-
vile, where she, with her husband,
was visiting.
Stricken with pneumonia, she
fingered for a few days only, SO
willing to meet her Savior, con-
scious to the last, and on the eve
ming of the oath of March she bade
farewell to husband and relatives,
and peacefully answered the call
of her Savior to come up higher,
thy work is done and we'll done.
She was educated in the best
young ladies' school in St. Louis,
and graduated in the classical
course with high honors. When
a young girl her parents moved to
st. Louis and she resided there
many years after her marriage,
her husband being a rising young
lawyer. She lived in De Soto and
Ironton some years after, her hus-
bands business taking him to that
district. In the fall of 1882, they
removed to Dakota, living in Far
go a short time, then moving to
Sargent county, where they have
resided for the past twenty years.
Her life was not a life OF selfish
ness but of doing for others. Such
a life is not wasted but is given to
the glory of God. To live for hui
manity is a blessed thing; to live
for self is humanity's greed. Her
church and Sunday school work
will live on and on and will be re-
membered. She has been a mem
Der of the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union since its or
ganization in North Dakota and
was state officer at the time OF
her demise. She has never been
absent from State convention,
the first one being in jamestown

Fell Dead.

A man fell dead in Chicago the
other day from heart trouble, and
thousands die every day in the
same way. But the cause of nine
out of ten of such cases of heart
trouble is indigestion. The cure
is DR.. Caldwell's Qaxative) Syrup
Pepsin. The explanation is that
the swollen, inflamed, and en-
gorged stomach, presses right up
against the heart and prevents it
from working; your heart hutters,
palpitates, pains, and you are
short of breath; some lose it for
ever. Just try for these symptoms
a few doses of DR.. Caldwell's S
Syrup Pepsin, and see how quickly
it will cure you. Sold by Arcadia

in 1890. The work was very dear
to her and she labored unceas-
ingly for the maintenance of it's
principles. She was honored and
revered by all her co-workers
throughout the State. She was
one of the helpers in gaining for
this State its prohibition law.
Many leaflet has she had printed
and sent on its mission in those
early days.
What can we say of her work in
Sergeant county? The half will
neverb be known of the good work
accomplished. She has always
been its honored president, urging
and encouraging its local workers

and circuit clerk of Madison coun-
ty, and continued in those offices
until the enforcement of the "oust-
ing ordinance" in 1866. Two years
afterwards he was appointed cir
cult attorney, and faithfully and
ably discharged the duties of that
important Office until 1868, when
he was chosen to represent his
county in the legislature, his can
vass having been made on the
issue OF enfranchising the ex-Con-
federates and negroes, or universal
suffrage. He assumed an inde-
pendent position in politics, and
introduced in the legislature the
first resolution which afterward
eliminated in the famous measure
abrogating the test oaths in the
Drake constitution and universal
suffrage in the State. In 1870, he
consented to become the Liberal
Republican candidate for Congress
in his district, but had no expecta-
ton of being elected. In 1874 he
ran for Judge of the circuit court
on the issue that judges should
not be elected as partisans, but he
was defeated by his Democratic
competitor, Judge J. B. Robinson.
After the death of the latter, in
September, 1878, Governor Phelps
appointed Judge Nalle to fill the
vacancy until the approaching
November election, when he again
ran upon the non-partisan issue,
and was again defeated by a DEM
ocrat, j. III. Nicholson. His de-
cisions on the bench were marked
by fairness and ability.
Since he retired from the bench,
Judge Nalle has for the most part
spent the intervening years in
practicing law in Wayne and this
county. AS lawyer, few ex-
| celled him in the excellence of his
written pleadings wherein his
naturally logical and mathematical
mind showed to the best advant-
age, he tenaciously rendered his
clients his best services.
OF late years he has retired from
practice. He early married Mary
E., the daughter of the late Judge
David M. Fox, who made him a
most exemplary wife and who sur
wives him. The following children
survive their father: Mrs. S. j.
Malugen, of Greenville, Mo-; Mrs.
John L. Robinson and Miss Kate
Nalle, of this city; Joseph Nalle,
of Thayer, Mo-; and Benjamin
Male, of Elvins, Mo.
| Judge Nalle's last long and pain
full illness was borne with great
lpatience. He died a member of
the Catholic church. AS a father
and a husband he was kind, con-
siderate and indulgent, and as a
citizen he was law abiding.-Fred-

Russia seems to have fallen down
on her secret war service as well as on
her general preparedness for the con-
fict with Japan. General Kuropatkin
in dispatch to his government dur
ing the Mukden retreat stated, with an
air Of surprise, that the japanese in
formation with respect to his move
ments was perfect.
Now, 1t is the most natural thing in
the world that the Japs should know
their enemy. The people of that region
are not hostile to the mikado's cause,
even If not actively friendly They
can be pumped or bribed. And the
Russians themselves are probably not
above taking in graft" for army
secrets. Besides, the japanese are
neighbors Of the Russians, and they
know them by heart. What they don't
know they get at by intuition.
Part of the art of war is to guess
what your enemy is doing and gather
all the data possible to back up the
guessing. Russia Is noted as retainer
of spies from time immemorial. Per-
haps there has been deal of bluff in
it all along, the spies having sold IN
formation both ways and anyhow kept
the bear amused and inflated with the
notion that .he possessed the finest spy
system in the world. And If 1t has
turned out sham at the moment Of
test no one should be surprised There
Is a lot of sham about all great "Sys-
tens" which are kept up merely for
mid of things more or less shaky from
the foundation.

New York as Foreign City.

who would like to Americanize the
great metropolis. 1t says:

mobiles and go to the theater and eat.
New York is a great place for walters and
fnanciers and actors and chauffeurs.
What should we do for our eX-working
men If there were no New York?
For that motter, what would the rest of
us do when we wanted to see foreign
city and hadn't enough money to so to
Europe? New York is the playground of
America. II Is a financial headquarters.
Its main work is not with things. but with
slips of paper that represent things.
There is no smoke In the air coming from
busy chimneys There is only the rustic
of stock certificates.
While typical New Workers will not
own up to it, the idea that their city
is foreign originates with them. and in
this way: They look upon all the rest
of the nation as foreign or outlandiSh,

Mrs. SALLY BRowN.

The following sketch of lady known
in Island Pond, having resided in this
vicinity for quarter century, is, 10y re-
quest. copied from the Orleans County
Monitor:
Mrs. Brown, who was the daughter of
Mr.. aud Mrs. Thomas Woolley aud sis.
ter of the late James aud John Woolley,
was born in Cayendish January g, lS2l.
When fifteen years of age she came
with her parents to Lowell. She taught
school in both Lowell and Westfield

who remember her as a teacher. On
December 20. 1889, she was married in
Lowell to Thomas Z. Brown of Ply
mouth, the ceremony being performed
10y the Rev. y. II Downs of e ixir fame.
The young couple took up their resi-
dence in Plymouth, where they lived
eleven years, then they moved to West

by James Martin. About twenty years
later they moved to Albany. During
the past twenty-five years Mrs. Browns

Power In the Voice.

Trust a mother to know the voice
which will soothe fretful infant to
sleep. All humanity can be swayed
by tones appealing to present emotion.
A voice will incite to riot or quell it
and likewise precipitate a panic or sub
due one 1t will win men to the right
way or repel them and mar Il good
undertaking.
IN ordinary life the voice has an
important role, too often overlooked.
Actors and actresses win triumphs by
control of the voice. Every one is an
actor and should cultivate the art of
swaying others. An agreeable voice
will have an indefinable charm even
when saying unpleasant things. On
the other hand, unpleasant tones will
spoil the most delightful message.
The greatest foe to power in the hui
man voice is the hurry and hustle of
the modern age. Speakers do not take
