WOULD YOU BE BLESSED WITH A
 PAsEDA TREE7

The Buddhists believe that great things will happen before long. Their 'great god Budd," the Buddha who has already lived four lives on earth, will come back for bis fifth reincarnation.
 So the Buddhists as well as the Chris tians believe in a millennium. Perhaps 1t is the same thing. Perhaps both are right. Perhaps neither is right, but the thing foreshadowed, and seen as through glass, darkly, will be seen face to face in some new development of aociety in which there will be TO want ncr misery, nor greed.
 Christians believe in a New City. the gates swinging open wide, dominated by no temple, but lighted with the glory of God, watered by the river on the banks of which grows the tree of life, bearing the twelve manner of fruits. and leaves which heal the nations.
 The Buddhists believe that Buddha shall return, marry great princess live in glorious palace, cleanse the world so that men shall live to the age of 1000 years, and-how like the Christian story of the tree of lfe?-tbero shall grow in the fair gardens of that day, the paseda trees, the fruits of which shall provide food for all men.
 This story was told to tramp by the roadside. He thought of it a moment and turned away with shrug of pro testing lack of interest.
 It doesn't appeal to me- said he.
 Why" said his interlocutor. "Wouldn't you like to live in society where the tree of life, or the paseda tree, furnished food for all men? Would n't it enable you to live in plenty9"

STATES AND THE TRUSTS

From the Kansas City Star.
 Attorney General Jackson's suit on behalf of Kansas against the harvester trust has been won by the state. The victory in all such suits lies not in en- forcing the states supreme power of custer, unless that is the only alterna- tive to willful violation of the law. The state triumphs to the fullest extent when 1t retains the business, subject to equitable regulation. The fines to be paid by the harvester trust are an incl dental benefit; but the great advantage gained is that the trust is not left free to reimburse itself for these fines by continuing it's trade methods in disre- gard of the rights of the state. In this private business Of selling farm machin- cry, as in the private business of sell ing oil, the right and the power of the state to intervene for moral and legal equity have been established. The har- vester trust case has determined the principle for Kansas, as the Standard oil case has established it for Missouri.
