FIGHT AGAINST CORRUPTION.
Prosecution of Oppressive Combines
Afford a Lesson to Home Traders.


Never before has there been such
stirring up of the masses and an
awakening as to rottenness in finan.
cial affairs among the large corpora
tons as at present. Some one at one
time said that 'when thieves fall out
the devil gets his reward" So 1t
seems at present when faction is ar
rayed against faction in exposing
crooked operations in great financial
and business deals, in which the little
fish are swallowed by the big ones.
and the men in control, like wolves,
lead the lambs to slaughter.
1t is amazing how farspread are the
frauds practiced, and how high up in
public estimation are the manipula
tors of the rotten deals. The stealings
of the millionaires and multi-million-
aires the intrigues and their perjuri-
Gus lying and Misrepresentation to
accomplish their aims; the intricacy
of the machinery, used in their opera
tions, the perfection Of the means, the
combinations employed to fleece the
people of dollars. would do credit to
q Gagliostro or a Machiavelli, or a
Capt. Kidd.
There cannot be doubt that these
various articles appearing in the mag
azines and general newspapers will
have the result of opening the eyes
of the public to things that few hereto
fore ever gave serious consideration.
They will have the effect of making
the people more cautious in making
investments of their earnings, and
will result in lessons that are bene.
fetal to the country at large. Home
trade principles preclude the POSSIBLE
ity of people losing by the operations
of such gigantic schemers. Money in
vested in your own community in the
development of it's latent resources
will give excellent returns, is ever
under your own observation and while
| the percentage of profit from some
home investments may not be up to
| the representations made by the ma.
nipulators of stocks and the shearers
of lambs in general, you are not SO
likely to be loser

SCIENCE OF TOWN KILLING.
Unwise Booming and Maintaining Elk.
orbtant Prices an Effective Way.

There is county seat town in one
of the central western states that has
population of about 5000. 1t is sur
rounded by one of the richest farming
countries. For years this town has
been at a standstill. If anything 1t
is retrograding, and even farm values
near 1t are lowering, while poorer land
some 20 miles away is advancing.
Why should such condition exist ?
The answer is plain. A dozen years
ago there was boom. With the boom
real estate went to the top notch.
Keeping pace with the boom the
prices of products in that town went
UP. There was collapse In real es-
tate values, but the merchants re-
manned, and kept up the high-price
habit. That is they wanted more than
an equitable snare of profit. Another
town was started 30 miles away Some

THE FAcuLTlEs OF JUSTICE.
Blind, Perhaps, But No Reasonable
Proof Of Deafness Also.

Judge Harlan, who lives up on the
hill, was a passenger on Fourteenth
street car the other day and was seat
ed next to q couple of clerks who were
deeply Interested in some discussion,
which caused one OF them to raise his
voice to quite high PITCH, says the
Washington Star. This appeared to
make the other man rather cautious,
as he glanced warily around to see
II any one was listening to- the talk
of his friend. At this moment he dis
covered the presence of the dignified
Justice and turning hastily to his loud
talking comrade, he said: For
heavens sake, lower your voice; you
may have heard that Justice is blind
but that doesn't necessarily mean
that it's deaf also." Whether Judge
Harlan heard the remark 1t 10 Inn
possible to state, yet, all the same, a
calm smile fitted over his face at
the conclusion Of the young fellows
