people to invest, their earnings in stocks
when stocks are the plaything of Wall
street. The public was induced to buy
into the United States Steel company,
and it did so. Those who bought com
mon stock got one or two dividends and
then were let in for a great loss on their
investment, and shocking disappoint-
ment in their dividends. AS soon as
the stock had been depressed far enough
to make. it a good purchase the promo
tiers bought in at 80 cents what they
had sold at 90 cents, and began to de-
clare dividends again. This kind Of
treatment makes people feel more like
burning down industrial concerns than
buying them up. AS a condition prece-
dent to a very general frst-hand invest
ment by the public in stocks they must
be made safe and stable. In order
that this may be done, the government
should exercise some proper control
over capitalization. Publicity Of all
corporate dealings should be conceded
and the men who manage them should
recognize their trusteeship. There is
an irreconcilable conflict between pub
lie buying of stocks and private mani
pulation Of them.

THE SYMPHONY CONCERT

A program for music culturists to
delight In was that e iven at the Audi
forum last evening by the Minneapo-
lis Symphony orchestra, but it was not
among the plain people, except as con
tributed to by the violinist, Emile Sauret.
There was a good-sized audience pres
emit, but evidences of appreciation Of
Mr.. Oberhoffer efforts were not in
sistent or enthusiastic. Nevertheless,
the program was an excellent one, and,

themes, which the composer has lifted
from the gutter to the housetop by his
genius, possesses the charm of self
interest. Americans cannot but be in
/ terested in the unsteady intellectual
conception Of the national spirit by
this foreign composer, however much
results. That the different themes have
been worked out with consummate skill
is not to be denied, but that the work
is in any sense monumental many will
have the temerity to deny. The third
movement, with its bizarre reminis.
e cees of New York b Roh h will of
der the ban. That Mr.. Oberhoffer read
! it convincingly well, and that the or
chestra played it with a fine follow,
ing Of the leaders, Interpretation, it is
| but simple justice to say.
The Goldmark HSakuntala overture
was disappointment as to the work
itself, but not as to its rendition. Ii
falls far short of many others both
in construction and as to inherent IN
I terest. The List =" Polonaise in E,
| with its familiar themes, was but In
differently played. The work is 81
intrinsically interesting, however, that
it would take much poorer playing thar
it's being enjoyed.
M. Emile Sauret, the soloist, played
magnifcently. The Mendelssohn con
certo, which has never been heard her,
&, before, was splendidly read, and witt
such a depth Of artistic skill, adequa
cy of technique and brilliancy ana
smoothness of Interpretation, that h
was recalled six times before the audi
acteristics of Sauret IS playing are
breadth of treatment, suavity of In

displayed in Mendelssohn IS classic.
Sauret's second number was com
position of his own, "Elegie ct rondo,
full of graceful melodies and with oc
casional cadenzas calculated to give tn
virtuoso an opportunity to exhibit hi
, technical skill. 1t was very enjoyable
AS an encore he gave wonderful eS
hibition of playing in the adagio an
;. fugue movements from the Bach t1rs
Sonata, and this was revelation. A
most the only criticism which NIGH
be ventured regarding Sauret's play
7 ing was an unfortunate tendency to az
cent or push important notes in purel
e cantabile passages, and this was mos

THE P11hlic Ownership of Trusts.

Judge Grosscup's plan of cure for
the evils of the trusts in the dlstrlbu-
ton of their stocks among the people IS
not new, nor is it's desirability lessened
nv the difficulties of it's realization. AS
a matter of fact the people are supposed
to own these great industries now thru
the insurance companies and the banks.
The money in the banks is largely the
money of the depositors and if the
banks own the trusts and the people
own the banks, then the people own the
trusts. The same is true of insurance
funds. There is nothing to an insur-
ance company but a trusteeship. The
company and all that is in it is owned
by the policyholders. Insurance com
panies owns bonds and stocks of IN
dustrial and railroad corporations anc
thus the indirect ownership of the peo
pie in these great organizations Is
again asserted. -
The thing that is not asserted is the

HAIL SUPREME REGENT
ROYAL ARcANUM HOSTS OF MIN
NEAPOLIs MEET HOWARD G.
wIGaINs, CHIEF OFFICER OF
ORDER.

Nearly one thousand members of the
Royal Arcanum, their ladies and
friends, gathered last evening at the
Masonic Temple auditorium to meet the
chief officer of their organization, How
ard G. Virgins, Rome, n. Y.
Inc session was opened with the
grand officers in the chairs. The de-
gree was conferred by picked team,
the following members taking part: A.
Robert Volbracht, John G. Walker. E.
r. Reed, Professor W. III. Kirchner, f.
l.. Smith and E. J. O'Brien. The Arion
quartet rendered the odes. -
At the conclusion of the work, the
doors were thrown open and the great
hall and gallery were filed. Supreme
Regent Virgins was introduced by the
grand regent of Minnesota, R. A. Walk
er of st. Paul. Mr.. Virgins address
was a presentation of the merits of the
fraternal system of protection. AS an
illustration, he said that the members of
the Royal Arcanum, if gathered togeth-
er, would make city with almost ex-
| actiy the same population as Minneap-
Oils. He also called attention TO the
fact that the amount disbursed by the
order during the twenty-eight years of
ITS existence to the benefciaries of its
$4,000 deceased members, equaled the
| t0Ial assessed valuation OF this city at
the same period-$l00,000,00O. From
II until midnight the gathering was
entertained by the Arion quartet and a
program of selected vaudeville.
All the ten councils of Minneapolis
were represented at the meeting, the
arrangements having been in charge of
the Minneapolis Regents association
Mr.. Virgins went to st. Paul this
afternoon, where he paid his respects
to Governor John A. johnson and In
surance Commissioner O'Brien. A re-
ception has been arranged for this eve
ming at Elks' hall. He will leave al
IL pm. for Chicago to be the guest OF
honor at dinner of the Past Regents
association of that city.

Balfour Was Not There.

The opening of the British parlia-
ment with liberal majority, the
largest in the history, Of the party, was
signalized by the enforced absence Of
the leader of the opposition. Mr.. Bal
four, who had hard fall in Manches-
ter, has not yet been returned from the
London district, where a vacancy has
been provided for him. In fact, while
the new parliament was listening to the
kings speech Mr.. Balfour was per-
ambulating about the markets shaking
hands with fish sorters and taking an
occasional douche of dirty water from
the baskets they carry on their heads.
It was an instructive spectacle and one
well calculated to teach politicians the
vanity of pride of place.
In the house Of commons Mr.. Cham
berlain took. the lead in criticising the
kings speech. He especially objected
to those clauses which dealt with home
rule for Ireland and constitutional gov
eminent for the Transvaal. 1t was tc
| be expected that Mr.. Chamberlain
the liberals might propose for the Trans
vaal. He knows that it was he who
was responsible for the Boer war ant
that the people have not forgiven hin
| for it. He knows that the new premie
is the man who staked his whole pollt
ical future on conscientious effor
to prevent that war. Consequently hi
looks upon any legislation Campbell
Bannerman may propose for South Arr
ca as slap at himself. ~ ~...
The proposals in the kings speed
with regard to Ireland are not clea1
but they do not necessarily imply nom
rule on the Gladstone plan. They q
indicate an enlargement Of the loca
control of Irish affairs. The devolutlo
scheme of Lord Dunraven appears t
fit in logically with the new liberia
plan of home rule by installments.

Making Progress, Anyway

Friends of railroad-rate regulation
ought not to be discouraged, altho the
railroad senators are interposing so
many obstacles in the way Of congress
sional action as to cause apprehension
lest there be no action worth while at
this session. A defeat of a practical
law at this time would be disappoint |
ment, unquestionably, but there is more
ground for encouragement than for
Encouragement. AS matter Of fact,
good deal of progress. has been made.
There has been lot Of educating of
the public and educating Of the rail-
road managers themselves which is
worth what it has cost. 1t has been
made so clear that the government has
the power and ought to exercise the
| right to regulate these great public
carriers that that question has been
practically taken out of the range OF
discussion.
Of course, there are a few railroad
men still disputing the right and the
power of the government to exercise
supervision over the creature it has
made. But nobody is listening to them
nowadays, and their fulmlnatlons
against the administration policy are
having no effect. The only question
left is how it shall be done, and the
wise ones among the opponents of regu-
lation are cognizant OF the situation
and are devoting themselves entirely
to defeat of practical methods OF reg
ulation. -... -. ........... .. ....5
They may succeed in multiplying the
effectiveness of proposed legislation to
some extent at this time, but such sue
cess can only be temporary. The broad,
basic principle that the railroads exist
primarily for the benefit Of the public;
: that they are created for the benefit OF
the public rather than for the benefit OF
individuals. aud that they must be oper-
| ated in the public interest without dis
J elimination between individuals is SO
| well settled that there is little heard
| NOWADAYS about the higher authority OF
/. natural law and commercial principles
. and all that sort of thing, which ha'
g done SO much service in favor Of privi
e legged shippers. Until somebody is able
e to maintain the proposition that thu
e United States government mail service
: ought to carry the same class OF mai
e for the man or the institution which
d sends out large quantity each Ga.
+ cheaper than it carries it for the in
/ dividuad or the institutions which sem
d out very much less, it will be impossibl
J. to maintain that the railroads, IN the1
S capacity Of public carriers, exercising
as they do public function under gov
g ernmental authority, may properly dis
l. criminate between shippers of small Q
d large amounts. Natural laws are a
Il right when applied to natural cond
Le tions, but when artificial conditions ar
le created and artificial persons are COZ
d stituted to do things in the'name Of th
,e state these artificial persons will di
" charge their functions impartially an
le fairly as between all citizens, or til
1t state must resume the rights and pov
Iers it has conferred.
