To Break the Monopoly.

Philadelphia Record.
Both the boycotting customers and
the government at Washington pro-
coed on the assumption that the prices
of meat are maintained by an agree
ment of the different companies con-
shutting the beef trust. If this be
true, the most natural and effective
means of prevention is in breaking the
monopoly. But how is this to be
done The government at Washing
ton has tried it again and again through
the courts without success. At this
hour, the combinations controlling the
prices of cattle, as we'll as meats, is as
powerful as when the first attack was
made upon it. Let us hope then that
the new attempt of the government tc
break the beef combinations by lega
means will prove more successful.

ut is time to take business out of
politics. - Clifford Pinchot.
Bless your conserving soul, it is
simply impossible to take business out
of politics. Business is getting deeper
into politics every day. 1t pays to
keep it there politically. Without
ceasing for seven years, the greatest
politician in this land mussed up the
corporations daily, and increased mar
velously his political strength and
prestage by doing it. His success was
boundless. The more he mussed the
more his popularity grew. Can the
big politicians of his day ignore that
high example, or fail to profit by it
They dare not retreat or set aside his
policies. Some of Mr.. Gifford's most
enthusiastic friends are in favor of
putting business deeper into politics
All through the west there attaches to
the word ''reactionary" an opprobrium
as great as that implied by the word
"copperhead" during the civil war.
Reaction would take business out of
politics, but what would become of the
politicians

State Home for Girls are women. The
correction applied by masculine hands
has not the lasting and efiicacious eff
feet of the diciplne of women. The tes-
timony of children who have undergone
punishment from both bears out this
Assertion. There is something final, con-
vincing, and objectivein the application
of the feminine hand. When man pun
ishes it is in anger, and this invariably
lessons the corrective object of the act,
but woman approaches the task in a
dispassionate frame # mind. 1t is mere
ly part of her days task. She imparts
this impression through the muscles os
her arm to the sensitive organism of the
child, and the nerve centers convey it
in lasting manner to the brain.
The punishment thus inflicted has a
better effect on the child, who suffers,
but does not resent, than it would had
the hand been that of the father. The
latter seldom offers to punish his chill
dren, the photographers woodshed jokes
to the contrary Notwithstanding. He US

Ages of experience in family and ed

Consumers look on it with disfavor,

The Tale of a Kew,

There is a roll top desk in an office
near Wall street which can be bought
cheap. The owner is commuter and
has desk room in a large Office. He
came late the other day and discover
ed that he had forgotten his keys.
No key at hand would unlock the
desk. The maker could not give aid
for an hour or more, and some papers
had to be reached before noon. The
desk was forcibly opened. and two
inner compartments were smashed.
Warm and tired from the exertion of
wrecking his property, the man took
off his coat and slipped into an office
coat, in the pocket of which his keys
jingled. Tableau, Before going home
he confded to the Office boy that he
wouldn't care If he hadn't told.-New

Political Passions of 1874.

There were elements Of picturesque
ness and drama in the politics of the
before the war time which are lack
ing nowadays. Marion Harland tells
in her autobiography of a Whig rally
which makes the political meetings of
today seem tame, cut and dried af-
fairs. 1t was in 1874, the year of
Clay's defeat, and feeling ran high.
At that particular time John Tyler
was perhaps the most unpopular man
in the Union. In the progress of his
review Of national affairs the orator
at last came to the hated name. In
stantly uprose the majestic figure of
Captain Coclrn the local eccentric,
clad in the scarlet English hunting
coat he invariably wore. "The Lord
have mercy upon the nationw he
cried, his voice solemn with wrath
and sonorous with the mint juleps for
which the Bell was noted. Fellow
citizens. l always cry to high heaven
for mercy upon this country when
John Tyler's name is mentioned!

Washington, Oct. 1S.-The annual
report of Major General Leonard
Wood as commanding officer of the
department of the east criticises the
marching ability of the infantry.
'The calls upon the infantry" Gen
eral Wood said, "are already severe
and will Increase rapidly in the i'm
mediate future incident to the garri-
soning of the Hawaiian Islands and
the isthmus of Panama. In the infan-
try especial attention should be paid
to mobility. Our troops do not march
as they should. This is due almost
wholly to the lack of interest in this
feature of infantry. In this connec-
ton company commanders must give
more attention to the feet of their
men and see to it that their shoes fit
and that their feet are carefully looked
after"
