Operation Of Injurious Trusts Can Ee
Curtaied by Efforts Of the
Masses.

An evil that at present is receiving
more than ordinary attention in the
press is the concentration of vast
corporations. The accumulation of
wealth by individuals when controlled
by natural law, will inevitably become
divided. The millionaire who has a
family at his death will apportion TO
each member a share of his wealth
Even though these divisions may be
increased by work and by speculation
and investment by the children, they
in return will divide the accumula-
tions among their offspring and even
tually, it matters not how great the
fortunes of any one of the family
may become, it is only matter OF
time until there is scattering of the
money, and a great portion of IT will
pass from the members of the family.
On the other hand, corporation meth
DDS mean the building Of a system
that prevents the operation of the
natural law. In other words corpora
tons are machines that work con-
tinuously, and when one part is brok-
en- 1t is replaced by a new one Thus
the accumulation goes on. The death
of Rockefeller will not result in a
discontinuance of the Standard Oil
company; the death of the present
stockholders of any of the large trust
companies. banks or insurance COM
panies will make little difference in
their existence All will go ahead.
The safeguards Of corporations in
many cases are, excellent. But the
inclination to control trade by the
crushing out of smaller concerns and
the destruction of legitimate compe-
tition and the controlling of prices,
seems against public policy. All
classes are compelled to pay prices
dictated by these trusts for the goods
produced. Each year finds new CON-
binations to control trade. 1t is the
Capitalization of capital that makes
such operations possible The person
who assists in concentrating money in
large financial centers does his part
toward helping along such combines.
1t is only by individual action on the
part of every small producer and lab
orer in the country that conditions
can be changed. Stand by every home
Industry and do your part toward
keeping money in circulation at home,
and thus bring about conditions that
will make the operations OF trusts and
combinations impossible.

SCIENCE OF TOWN KILLING.
unwise Booming and Maintaining Ex.
orbtant Prices an Effective Way.

There is county seat town in one
OF the central western states that has
Q population of about 5000 II is sur
rounded by one of the richest farming
countries. For years this town has
been at standstill. II anything it
is retrograding. and even farm values
near il are lowering, while poorer land
some 20 miles away is advancing
Why should such a 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 a collapse in real es-
tate values, but the merchants re-
NAMED, and kept up the high-price
habit. That is they wanted more than
an equitable share Of profit Another
town was started 20 miles away Some
of the farmers went there. 1t was
found that the merchants were selling
goods at a lower price. The stock
buyer and the grainbuyer paid few
Wills q Cu iiOiC LII thClt Rulr
chases. The habit of trading at the
new town grew. The business men of
the old town couldn't learn lesson.
Before they knew it their customers
were leaving them. So it has been
since then. The merchants have been
plodding along The money that
should be retained in the town went
elsewhere. Much of 1t went to build
up the competing town.
Mistakes like this one are made
frequently. Towns become dead
places instead of live ones. In fact,
some towns are so dead that the farm
ers who withdrew their trade from
them are suffering in decreased farm
values They take no interest in
these places, other than to visit them
now and then. Unhealthy booms, un-
healthy prices made by the merchants,
and which are foolishly maintained,
are quite certain to kill town even
though it may be county seat and
have some advantages nearby towns
may not have.

An Important Improvement.

The action of the city council in
deciding to proceed forthwith with the
work of paving the public square and
that portion of Queen street lying be-
tween Martin and Race streets, is a
step in the right direction, and should
meet with the hearty approval of all
public-spirited citizens. No improve
ment in this city in years, with the
exception of the installation of the
present water system, has proved to
be of more real benefit as the paving
of Queen street. and the opposition tc
street paving. which had prevailed
here before that time, has almost en-
tirely disappeared.
In its determination to improve
and beautify the city the council will
be upheld and encouraged by every
resident who has the prosperity and
welfare of his home town at heart. /,
Let the good work go on.

Chambersburg is agitated over the
preachment in the Hagerstown Mail
on why Papa Leaves Home But
none Of them can deny it. A high

had hung his shirt on the sky light
when a friend found him. The friend
was Mortified. How could you aci
thusly, he cried out, do this in the
fine old city of Philadelphia? and the
victim querried Cos, cant do it al
bone. But Chambersburg pretends
to be Mortified.

Scramble For American Dollars

Count Boni de Castellane, 4ex-hus7
band Of Anna Gould. of New York,
who recently divorced him, is again
IN the limelight Thursday Count
Font and his cousin. Prince Helie de
Sagan, engaged in a disgraceful set
% ID front of a Paris church. Count
Boni. while in the church, spat in
the Princes face, and this was fol-
lowed by a rough-and-tumble fight
Count Jean de Castellane, Boni's
brother, took hand, and the two
beat their cousin SO well that de Sa-
gan had to go to bed.
Boni says that the trouble is the
outgrowth of an old grudge between
himself and the Prince, but it is sig
nifincant that Of late Prince Helie de
Sagan has been paying court to Boni's
divorced wife, who is now known as
Madame Gould. In November Prince
Dc Sagan was reported to be engaged
70 Madam Gould, and the probability
is that the little Count Boni could not
tolerate the thought that his cousin
stood good chance at getting a
whack at some of the good Gould mill
lions. while he, Boni. had been UNI
tremendously kicked out in the cold
X is true that while Boni was the
husband of Anna, he made the Gould
dollars fly like mad, his career of ex-
trayagance and dissipation finally com
polling George Gould to assume the
guardianship of his unfortunate sis
tar's remaining fortune. But Boni
was not satisfied with having blown in
half a dozen paltry millions; he
wanted it all, and the idea of his cou-
sin getting ahead of him ranked in
his anguished little breast
1t is freely admitted that Anna Gould
made mess of it when she married
the little French count. and it is to
be regretted that every time that Bo-
nj gets himself in the newspapers An
ma Gould's name is dragged in and
linked with his disgraceful conduct
But just SO long as wealthy American
girls buy for themselves, with the
hard-earned money their fathers made
these miserable degenerates with for
eign titles, the newspapers will be
