UNITED STATES OF THE WORLD

Various schemes. chiefly SociaIstic,
for the bcttcrment of humanity, have
been proposed from time 20 time by
different thinkers throughout the
world The latest is by a Chinaman,

1T DODGES THE ISSUE.

The Tribune has been commenting
fairly and squarely upon the failure
Iof Attorney-Gcuer Wickcrsham to get
any results in his prosecutions of the
trusts aud combines, even when he
wins the suits. 1T has drawn attention
to the fact that the people are not bene-
flied in the least by these apparently
victorious prosecutions. The price OF
Ioil has been raised three times
since the dissolution of the Standard
Oil trust, aud the prices Of tobacco
have not been in the least reduced to
CONSUMERS.
Because we did this, L. S. Attorney
Booth brought forward in his Federal
bunch organ an alleged pronouncemeut
| of Attorney-Geuera Wickcrsham
against The Tribune some years back,
and claimed that that was the reason
for our criticism Of Wickersham s
| failures. The truth is that we had no
thought about that Wickersham stuff
at all, having never taken it in the
least 10 heart, knowing very. we'll that
Lit was not Wickersham IS judgment. and
on the very face of the language. it
was necessarily Booth s and not Wick
ersham s, We replied accordingly, and

CHRYSOTILE ASBESTOS
The Great Industry in Which Vermont
Stands Alone among All
the States.

The Monitor is giving in this issue
considerable space to the asbestos in
terests of Lowell and Eden. Besides
this article. which first appeared IN
the Morrisville Messenger and through
whose courtesy we are privileged to
use the accompanying cuts. We print
the editorial comment Of several pa
pers, and the news of the incorpora-
ting of a S2.0OO.O0O company for the
further development of this industry.
Asbestos, the great mineral which
defes heat and flame and all the other
elements, is being used more and
more every day, both in this country
and abroad.
1t is not so many years since that
there was no commercial value to ii
whatever, except, possibly as a curl
osity to be displayed in museums. and
other places. But today it is the one
mineral with an almost unlimited
future, and with a demand which is
increasing with great rapidity from
year to year.
There are really two kinds of as.
bestos, only one of which, however, is
of any particular commercial value.
Ampbibole asbestos, which is COM
monty known as ttslip FIBRE" is OF
little or no value, and this kind OF
asbestos may be found in several
places in the United States.
Chrysotile asbestos, however. is the
kind of asbestos that the markets OF
the world are clamoring for, and one
with the great future: and of this is
to be found in the entire United
States only one producing property
