SAMPLES OF TRUST EVIL

These are not the products Of the
'pauper labor of Europe" but of
the factories of America, which are
glad to get the prices that they
have to take when they get out
from under the protection of a too
high tariff.
Commenting on this the Ameri
can Economist states that practi
cally all the machines named in
this list are controlled by trusts
which like the Standard Oil trus
the ice trust, the Anthracite trust
and may others, are in no way as
sisted by the tariff The various
farm implement trusts get all their
protection from patents and pat
ented processes of manufacture.
They hate the tariff, and would like
to Sc 1t cut down by revision or by
reciprocity agreement which would
give them still better chance to
sell to foreigners at cut prices.

DREAMY INDIAN
SUMMER IS
NEAR

Weather watchers who have
years of observation in the Spo-
kane valley to their credit are pre-
dieting a typical autumn this year.
There is no ground hog or blue
goose bone element in the predic-
ton, but the genius which ventures
the forecast bases his calculations
on the more subtle "feelins" about
the weather which cannot be close
ly defined
To the ordinary mortal there is
nothing in the strinent chirp of the
cricket to differentiate this year
from any other, but the cultivated
weather sense" detects a bit more
of joyous melody than usual. The
smell of things" in the early morn
ings is foretaste of those bright
days of clear sky and warm sun
which mark the Spokane autumn.
The peculiar color of the sky at or
near sunset is another of the signs
by which is heralded one of those
long delightful seasons called In
dian summer.
Weather Observer Stewart has
not yet compiled his summary for
September for the past quarter of
a century, but if one is satisfied to
accept the fiat of an observer who
doesn't work it by mathematics
but who lis the mark nevertheless
the coming month will be a delight.

DORSEY DREAMS
AND FINDS It
I ALL TRUE

! Well, here's where you have to
sit up and take notice Of the In
dians' baseball team. Yes, it was
the same team that played yester-
day. There weren't any changes,
but there was considerable differ
ence in the playing. What the boys
will do with all that ginger when
the season closes is a mystery. If
they had had it on the start Spo-
kane would now be looking back
to see if the other teams were fol-
lowing, but as it is President Dor
sey's men are straining their eye
sight trying to catch glimpse Of
the leaders, who appear to be run
ming away from the others.
AS Dorsey sat in the ticket Of
fee yesterday he thought he was
having one sweet dream. Yet there
was panied expression on his
face withal, for he had those same
sort of dreams before and the
awakening had been, oh, so rude.
But when Dorsey came out of this
one he had to look twice, pinch
himself and ask the fans If twas
true. Twas! The Indians had
done divers things to the Tigers.
They sharpened knives and cut
the white stripes out of their
hides. The rest of the skinning is
due for this afternoon. The result
was the Indians winning by a score
of 8 to /. Suess was the boy whose
picture all the girls will be wear
ing. He was at bat five times and
negotiated threebagger. two
Dagger and three singles. The In
dams in all got Is hits Samuels did
their twirling and let the Tigers
off with five hits, three Of them
being credited to French, who was
playing right field.
