EDITO RIAL NOTES

a the C11ne the government began the
criminal prosecution of the Beef Trust
officials, we predicted that the case would
drag along for many months-that by the
time the was finally disposed of the
majority of the people would have forgotten
when the prosecution started.
WE'LL the prosecution has dragged along
for months and it has advanced to the stage
where the government has rested its case
the stage OF only one side being heard and
the other yet to be heard.
And it will take twice as long to hear the
other side-the defense-as it has taken to
hear the governments side of the case
In the meantime, the Beef Trust has been
doing business at the same old stand in the
same old way-and the Beef Trust will con-
tlnue to do business in the same old wav-it
will continue to sell beef in England cheaper
than it sells it in Chicago-it will continue,
under our tariff, to rob the home consumer.
* s.
Since the United States Supreme Court
dissolved the Standard Oil Company numer-
Gus things have happened that Show how
much the Trust has been dissolved-di different
facts have come to light that show Just how
much effect the order of the Supreme Court
had on the Trust ust how much it divided
the Trust up into the former independent,
competing companies.
Ever since the Court handed down it's deci-
sion, after the first day, the price of stock Of
the different subsidiaries, now supposed to
be independent competitors, had advanced
there has been a steady advance in the price of
the stock, and no decrease in the amount Of
dividend paid.
Then there is the Waters Pierce COMPANY
case where the Waters Pierce Company really
wanted to reorganlze and be independents and
the Rockefeller crowd went into court in an
effort to make them elect Rockefeller direc-
tors and remain dependent.
Rockefellers oil interests are valued lat
more today than they were valued at the day
after the Court decided that the Standard Oil
Company must be dissolved Rockefeller's
stock in the Standard Oil Company of New
Jersey alone is worth $50 ,562, 500 more than it
was worth on May Is, last, the day after the
Supreme Court rendered it's decision

It now looks as if the Lawrence strike will
be settled within the next few days settled
on about the same terms that it would have
been settled on at frst-on the same terms
that would have prevented strike.
During the strike, suffering has been terri
ble-the loss in money amounts to millions
OF dollars-there is blot left on the State
of Massachusetts, that will never be wiped
out.
The officers of the law, and the State Mill
tia, have been guilty of crime that deserves
the severest punishment-these officers of the
law have proved to be criminals of the most
brutal type-women and children have been
beaten and brused-human life has been

MIN the perfection in pictured art is
That which is noisiest with flaming

Is not his choice in reading the sort
of book from which no lasting benefit
is gained?
The one thing in the world that
should be lasting is love, and we will
suppose that your present sentiment for
him lasts till you are old enough to
marry.
You gained him by affecting a frtv-
oltty that was not natural, and by
troubling your own ears with noisy
measures. Can you, do you think, keep
love won in that way, when the reali-
ties Of matrimony have crushed all the
frivolity out of you?
1t Is not hard for girl to caper and
chatter like monkey. Much of this
excess of spirits Is natural to youth, but
1t will be playing part that will tear
her heart and sicken her soul to con-
tinue to chatter and caper when the
years have taken all such inclinations
away
Iuel eAOES, De your own sweet, mod
est, quiet SELF. If silence doesn't win
him, you don't want a man who is won
by sound. The best people, the most
useful, the most worthy, and the most
talented, have never been the drum
heaters of life. The world never called
for leader and found him playing a
calliope.
1t comes natural for you to be quiet.
So much to your credit, and so much
greater promise of your usefulness and
worth.
DID you ever read of the Wish Prin-
cess? After telling young girl that
she would wish her wealth, and fame
and beauty, did any of these count in
the final reckoning, she concluded:
And So since these will not avail in
life's uncertain war, I'll wish you ever
more, my dear. to be just what you
are"
And that is what I wish you: ITO
be Just what you are" and some day
