WHY NOT CHANGE.

The president has been Crust
busting" for seven years, and il
any private citizen in this whole
broad land has received any bene-
fit from his exertions-if the price
OF any one trust-made article has
been reduced by the ''trust- bust
ing" which has 30 delighted the
country-then the market reports
do not disclose the fact. Naaman,

cause it was to simple. 1t was only
to wash and he clean. He deman-
ded something spectacular. He
wanted Elisa to come out to him
and stand and call upon the name
Of the Lord and strike his hand
over the place.
And so the real cure OF the mon
opoly that is affecting the country
is too simple to impress the public.
What is monopoly? 1t is the alb
sence of competition. Then why
not, in the name of reason and
common sense, take down the bars
and let competition enter A great
fine may be imposed upon the
Standard Oil company. But what
will that avail; it will simply re-
suit in u higher price for oil, and
so the people will lose instead Of
finding relief in that kind OF
"trust-busting." If the sugar
trust is exacting an unfair price
for sugar, why not let the German
refineries compete with them. II
the tobacco trust maintains high
prices why not let Cuba compete
with it? This is not only too sim
pie, but it would be to effective.
The people who are standing pat
on the tariff do not want the trusts
curbed. Baltimore Sun.

HOW HE WROTE HIS SUB
SCRIPTION.

Exchange: The merchants in a
Kansas town were solicited for a
church donation and they contri-
buted $500. This was not enough
so the committee decided to make
q further effort. One merchant
who bad previously not contribut-
ed was approached in this manner
by the COMMITTEES:
"You know, Mr.. Smith, you
are in business here and depend
on the people for your living.
Don't you think you should appear
on the subscription list?
Certainly" replied Mr.. Smith,
who was a jewler, eff you will
permit me to put it down in my
own way"
This was readily agreed and he
wrote:
John Smith ......... So. 90
