Putting to himself the question

The fact that no legislator has ever

nand for any change In the elective

of equal rights for women is as irrevo-

tie whisper from certain localities tells
US business is excepting up" This is
not true. The only promise of renewed
business is that Greek will start
candy store, and stove firm has rent
ed one of the vacated rooms. This lat
ter is simply change of locality, so
there is nothing promised but the
Greek, and he may Still be in Athens.
That our business men raised here in
many cases, in others who have spent
nearly their whole lives here, and
whose business integrity is priced
above many others who helped run
them out, should be driven out only to
have their places filled by Greeks, or
Syrians, or Chinese, or negroes, or any
other unknown foreigners, or doubt
full persons, may suit some. 1t by no
means suits US. To expect us to keep
quiet under such conditions is asking
more than we intend to give. We say
you emptied these business places in
one day, why do you not fill them in
one month? You had three months
notice that they would be vacant, why
did you do nothing? Why pirate about
the stove firm occupying one Of the va
cant rooms when it is simply changing
location Why boast of candy store?
We are studying the bank statements
just issued. They look alarming to us.
But figures are confusing. If, how
ever, they show what we think they
do, and what they seem to do, we will
have word or two to say on that SUBJ
ject. We are not talking against the
town, we are talking against A PoLIT-
ICAL PARTY as open to criticism as
either the Republican or Democratic
party, and as deep in worldly design
as either. If the town suffers, this new
party is responsible, and so far as we
are concerned we will talk, until our
new masters have made good, or have
silenced US by some method not just
now apparent.

VAST MERGER.

A recent merger which shows Inc
activity and utter fearlessness OF cor
porations in disregard the Sherman
law, and to do as they darn please, I'M
der present conditions, is that OF the
Bell Telephone Go. and the Western
Uuion Telegraph Co There never was
a palmer violation of the law. The
Northern Securities Co. merger was
not a marker. neither was the CONSOLE
dation of the q. S. Steel Trust with
the Tennessee Coal g. Iron, its only
competitor, which was accomplished
under the advice and sanction OF Pres
ident Roosevelt. Here are two COM
panies in the same business, that OF
transmitting news and messages. They
were bitter competitors. They said to
each other: "Let's get together and
stop this competition. The idea was
the same that produced the Sherman
act. Did ther ask "what will the adj
ministration say ?" We doubt it. Ii
they did-the answer was, we believe
"who cares bobbee for the admins
tration," or with Knox, or Wicker
sham, or Dickinson, in the cabinet,
who need care? They invite combina-
tions. They can always see where they
are not in restraint of trade, or where
they are not intended to drive out COM
petition. What Will follow ? Rates
will be raised and expenses reduced.
With reduced expenses one would nat
urally think that rates might be
cheapened. Oh, no. This is not the
plan. Monopolles never cheaper rates
when they have the power to control
them. We have heard that the Stand
ard Oil was founded for this purpose,
and that it did cheaper prices. The
whole story is a lie. Since modes of re-
filming coal oil have been improved on,
the price of oil has been lessoned below
what it cost in early days. But it is
great deal too high now, and would be
reduced if there was honest competition
allowed. This will never be. No more
will there ever in the memory of man
be any other companies either tele
phone or telegraph. There is one sale
still to exist. That is the Postal Tele
graph Co. The truth, is this is not {
separate and distinct corporation, II
truth and in fact. 1t too, is allied witt
the others, but for certain reasons i
prefers to remain apparently independ
emit. 1t may not be very many year
before all the railroads will be one
They are not far from that point now
All other businesses of magnitude will
soon be consolidated, and nothing viii
break their hold until, like othe
tyrants of ancient and modern times
they become unbearable, and their EN-
comes by revolution.

VETERANS MAY
LIVE Until 1855.
Men Who Fought With Lee and
Grant Slowly Becoming
Fewer.

A Washington correspondent says !:
Somewhere between the years 1850 and
1856 the last survivor of the great war
between the States may be expected to
pass to his reward. Porty years hence
the spectacle of an aged veteran who
is able to say that he marched and
fought as one of the great armies that
followed Lee or Jackson, Grant or
Sherman, will be rarity.
The question is often asked, when
will the veterans of the war of 1S6l-65
all be stricken from the rolls ? Some
index to this is given by reference made
in the report of the commissioner OF
pensions, which has just been made
public. This report shows that the last
survivor of the War Of the Revolution
was Daniel F. Brakeman, who died at
Freedom, Cattaraugus county, N. Y,
April 5, 1869, aged 100 years, 6 months
and DAYS.
FOUGHT IN WAR OF 1872.
The last surviving pensioned soldier
of the War of 1872 was Hiram Cronk,
of Ava, N. Y, who died May ID, 1906
aged 1O5 years and Is days. This was
80 years after the close Of the War O
1872 which ended in 1915. Ninety
years after the war between the States
would carry the date to 1866. Cronk
was mere youngster when the Wal
of 1912 broke out, being only abont 1;
years of age, and barely able to sight
