THE TRUST QUESTION

The issue was clearly drawn on the
trust question, which is one of the
most perplexing problems to be solv'
ed, by Governor Woodrow Wilson, In
that superb address which he deliv-
cred before magnificent audiences of
militant Democrats, that packed the
immense Memorial Hall in Columbus
last Friday evening. and oyerfowed
several thousands strong into the
street outside.
Both wings Of the Republican party
stand for the regulation of monopoly
for both are In favor of federal In.
corporation law, under which the ma
tinal government would license cor.
porations to become trusts.
The Democratic party stands for
the obliteration of monopoly by the
regulation Of competition, and the
freeing of conditions of business in
this country so as to substitute the
efficient for the merely powerful.
Republicans propose to remedy
these results produced by the trusts
by the very means by which they
were produced. namely, the partner.
ship of the government in the man
agement of big business"
In such a case, Governor Wilson
pointed out, the contract between the
government and the people, is too re
mote and indirect. "It Is only way
In which to provide the people with
new guardians, guardians interested
above al things in making profit out
of their guardianship, Il political prof
It, be It observed as well as an econ
omic profit" said the Governor.
The people then are to decide at
the polls next November whether
they prefer the plans of both wings
Of the Republican party TO perpetuatt
monopoly by legalizing It and guiding
II by a commission, to the Democratic
purpose of destroying monopoly by
regulating competition so that every
industry will be put on It's metal ant

Instead of q condition where con

STUDY
SwitzerIand'S System OF
Public Schools

Richmond. Va, Sept 26-Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction j. ID.
Eggleston has been requested by p. p.
Claxton, United States commissioner
of education, to go to Switzerland and
make 10 weeks study of the schools
of that country so that he may write
a pamphlet for the government, CIV
ing first hand Impressions OF the
public school system of the country
says the Virginian.
Mr.. Eggleston will sail for Europe
from New York Tuesday, in company
with Mrs. Eggleston, II he secures the
consent of the state board of educa-
tion to make the trip.
Commissioner Claxton in his letter
to Mr.. Eggleston says that he can get
a great deal of information from
books and pamphlets as to conditions
In Switzerland and as to the work be-
Ing done In the public schools of that
country, but that he wishes to learn
from the observation of an educator
OF this country what Is being accom-
plished and has selected Superintend.
ent Eggleston as the man to do the
work.
Mr.. Egglest0n has consulted Cover.
nor Mpnn, who advises him by all
means to make the trip. Governor
Mann is Of the opinion that there will
be no difficulty In securing permission
from the board, and Mr.. Eggleston
Is going ahead with his arrangements
Superintendent Eggleston said re.
Gently that he wished to take the trip
as much for the benent OF the schools
OF Virginia as for any other purpose
The Swiss schools are regarded as the
models OF all country schools. In
that country the village schools are
made to ut the conditions Of the com
munity. The pupils are trained tc
meet the requirements Of the com
munities In which the schools are 10
Gated. and not away from the com
munity.
The school board OF Virginia Il
seeking so to train the pupils OF the
Virginia schools, and Superintendent
Eggleston feels that first hand know
ledge OF the Swiss system will be ol
incalculable benefit to him In hi
work In this state. and that the In
formation he may acquire will be ai
valuable to Virginia as to the United
States government which Is paying
his expenses.

SAYS VERMONT WILL GO FOR
WILSON

J. Il. Burke, former Mayor Of Bur
iington. and one OF the Democratic
leaders In the Green Mountain State.
who was at Democratic Headquarters
yesterday, says:
II do not want anybody to put me
down as a rainbow chaser" or to be
making big claims about what the
Democrats will do In Vermont In No
vember. It has been SO many years
since Vermont gave Democratic ma
,jority or plurality. that ] am making
no predictions, but here aer some fg-
ures that may interest you:
"In the State election, the Republi-
can candidate for Governor received
about 26,500 votes, the Democratic
candidate received about 20.500 votes,
and the Third Term candidates receiv-
ed little over 1880. In the election
last Spring for delegates to the Rcpub-
lican National convention. Roosevelt
carried the I'd Congressional district.
II Is generally believed In Vermont
that the Roosevelt electors will re-
'ceive more votes than the Roosevelt
candidate for Governor received. Some
people think that the Roosevelt cleo
tors will receive 5000 more votes than
were cast for Metzger, the Third Term
candidate. II 80, this will give him
something like $4,000 votes for Presi-
dent, and would take Off that many
from Taft. In addition It is well
known that many Republicans will
vote for Wilson. and the Republican
votes cast for Wilson will also come
of the Taft vote. II these specuIa'
tions are correct. Taft's vote will be
brought down from 26,5O0 to about 90
' 900. The Democratic vote for Cover
nor was 10000. II they get even 900
Republican votes more than they got
in September, and hold their own. II Is
easy to see that II is a tOss-up as tn
who will get the electoral vote In Yer
mont The State cast In September
about 10000 votes. II will probably
cast about the same In November. and
IL now looks as II every one Of the
parties will get In the noighborhood OF
90, 900 votes, and this reasonable cal
,ouation will put Vermont In the doubt
ful list, and the Democrats believe
that Wilson will gain so much
strength Between now and election
that he has n chance OF carrying the
electoral vote of Vermont. When you
Consider that never before in the life
OF any man now living have Vermont
Democrats even looked to chance for
victory, the above calculation war
rants Democrats In their confidence IN
the election of Wilson"

PROJECT
To Rebuild The Temple Of
King Solomon
The Movement Is Led By
The Grand Lodge

Jerusalem, Sept. 26--For many years
past there has been among the Masons
Of both the east and west project to
rebuild the Temple of Solomon, who,
according to tradition, was the first
grand master of the order. When the
idea first originated insurmountable
difficulties seemed in the way. Abdul
Hamid was on the throne at CONSTANT
nople, and the consent of the Ottoman
government could not be obtained un-
til the Young Turks had come into
power.
1t then became necessary to fix up
on the site upon which Solomon's Tenn
pie had once stood. After much re.
search the place now occupied by a
Muhammadan mosque was decided
upon. This mosque, known as the
Dome of the Rock, stands on what is
believed by the followers Of the proph-
ct to be the center of the earth.
1t Is also said, and with some show
Of accuracy, that this was the site Of
King Solomon's temple. 1t was here
that the second temple was built when
in the reign of Cyrus, the conqueror of
Babylon, the Jews returned from their
captivity in that city, less than cen.
tury after the destruction of the first
temple by the Assyrians.
Having fixed on the site, the promo
ters of the plan then turned their at
tention to the formation of company,
and for this purpose applied to the
grand lodge in Boston. The applica.
tion contained statement of the pur.
pose OF the Masons to construct in Je.
rusalem as nearly as possible an ap.
proximate duplicate of the temple OF
| Solomon on behalf of the order
throughout the world.
A generous response has followed
upon the application, and 1t will not be
for lack of funds If temple on the
model of that of the great king. and
with something of it's beauty, does not
arise in modern Jerusalem.
