Quite frequently of late we read
of railways and sugar and other trusts
being fined thousands of dollars for
giving or receiving rebates. All this
is encouraging as it shows that the
law can reach and punish for such
illegal practices. But to effectively
deal with such abuses something
more than fines is needed. The fines.
whether large or small. do not i'm
poverish the concerns that are found
guilty or lessen the dividends paid to
stockholders because the amounts are
charged against the public and sooner
or later the public pays them. And as
for the moral sense which should
awaken breakers to a con-
seriousness OIL their wrong doing and
cause them to voluntarily desist. that
does not trouble them. If the giving
and taking of rebates and the other
illegal transactions lndulged in by
some corporations We're criminal
offenses honest dealing would soon
prevail.

NEWSPAPER POSTAL RAVES.

Newspaper men are sometimes
alarmed on account of statements
made that the Post Office Department
is going to curtail their privileges
which they now possess. The rea-
sons invariably given are that the
privileges of postal rates is often
times abused and also that as the De
partment has a deficit each year it
cannot afford co let the papers have
the cheap rates they now enjoy. That
the postal laws are oftentimes misused
by INSCRIPTIONS people is doubtless
true, but it is unfair to expect the
reputable and responsible newspaper
publishers to suffer for the wrong.
doing of others.
AS to the deficit which faces the
Department at the close of each fiscal
year we have good deal of sympa-
thy with the authorities.
The newspaper is great educator,
diffusing throughout the country in
formation of all kinds for the benefit
of the people and conserving the in
terests of law, morality. and order.
To put a tax on knowledge would be
both blunder and crime. and most
certainly higher postal charges on
newspapers could be equivalent to
such tax.

ONE WAY OF DEALING WITH
TRI1STS.

The sap trust in England was
very much of the nature of soap
bubble, for after brief, glittering
existence of three weeks it suddenly
broke. With a capital Of $50. OO0, ! 900
it did seem as if it could crush out
the independent firms which refused
to join, and that people would have
to buy of the trust or go unwashed.
Evidently they preferred to remain
unwashed, for they stubbornly de-
clined to buy trust soap. At least
the retailers did and they were sup
ported by the public. One result
of this boycott was to make the bus
mess of the trust fall off 80 per cent.
As further consequence of this ex-
perience the promoters are now sad
der and wiser men.
The stand taken by the British
retailer in the matter of the soap
combine is being followed with graft
flying results by the retailers OF
central Massachusetts with reference
of the oil combine. If this method
were only followed generally through
|out the country it might prove the
easiest. simplest, and most effective
method Of solving the trust problem.
Certain it is that the people intend
to he freed from the domination of
corporations which use their great
wealth and power to crush Legitimate
competition that they may control
the market and compel the consume,
to pay an unreasonable price for com.
modities. many of which are neces.
stiles of life.

OPERA HOUSE OUTLOOK.

There is grave danger that the
opera house project will fall through.
Practically enough money has been
SUBSIDIZED to build the opera house
but the difficulty seems to be to make
a suitable arrangem ent with the
Germania Verein which owns the
present opera house. 1t would be a
source Of; great future regret to this
society il any action Of its own should
block the citizens in their enterprise
and generosity and public spirited
ness. The present opera house was
built very largely from funds given
or loaned by business men who are
not now owners Of any part of the
stock. Under the circumstances we
think the matter should be looked at.
not entirely in the light Of strict
business transaction. but as mat
ter for the public good in which the
members of the Verein could we'll
afford to make sacrifice if necessary
to promote the project. 1t is true
that for the past few years the opera
house has been a paying venture and
the Indebtedness has been largely re-
duced. 1t would not be a paying
venture however if another opera
housewere erected. although it might
cut down the revenue of new build
ing. We understand that the Verein
has offered to sell the opera house fol
$500. $500 payable in cash. to wipe
out the outstanding indebtedness anc
the balance payable in stock in the
new concern. It would cost in the
neighborhood of $500. to move the
present building and get it ready or
a new foundation. The lot on which
it would be moved costs $2100. Thi!
would make the opera house cornel
cost the new company S13. 100. before
| a stone had been laid for the new
building. In return for this they
would have an empty lot with az
old stone foundation which must b,
removed and rebuilt and which would

pose and an old frame building suit
able only for dances and exhibition
purposes. The above is simply {
statement of fact If a new opera
/, house is built the earning capacity of
the old building would at once be re.
duced by one half. SO that it would

of the land upon which it stands. w,

With most commendable regularity
Santos Dumont announces about once
a month that he has at last perfected
mis- air-ship. Unfortunately it does
not stay perfected. for an arm or a
wing or rudder or some other vital
part gets out of order and the air
ship has to be again perfected. The
cheerful optimism of Santos Dumont
and his perseverance should ultimately
meet with success.
