The Next General Assembly.

Among The many matters that win

There have been quite a number OF

There can he no just or Intelligent dis

THE PANACEA.

l think I'll buy a,Dalacerand Iead a life
 of ease, And not cAre whattt they charge me for
 meal or groceEies, AS soon as Congress passes the money
 bill we need To keep the country s bizness from go-
 In all to seed. I've heard a lot of speakin' concerntn'
 this here bill, And don't know why they're busy de-
 bat1n on it still;
 they're losin> money fast, Because the lambs won't gambol until
 that bill Is passed. I've listened to ---e banker attemptin'
 to explain; And tried to understand 1t, but that has
 been in vain; I only know that something is needed
 right away To keep the country goin' and still
 make bankin' pay They tell us of the profits the money
 bill will bring So I should think they'd hurry and
 pass the precious thing; As soon as It's enacted all doubt wliI
 disappear, And there will be no panics or strin-
 genoies to fear. Wen all have lots of money and every
 thing will hum. And no one need be dreadin' the rainy
 days to come; The skies that have been cloudy will
 all be clear and blue, When Congress quits it's foolin and
 lets that bill go through. S. E. Riser, in the Chicago -.ecord- Herald.

rather than destroy the exising indus l trial organizations
 Why not, first of al1 try the experi- ment of fixing the dividends that the | trusts shall declare, leaving them free to fix maximum prices that would yield enough to pay such dividends and to create a fund for continuing them during the lean years of bus mess, and to respond to losses that might be incurred? Make the max imum dividend rate imperative not to be exceeded by any melon cut ting or other windfall. The sums nec- essary for reconstruction, improve ments etc, should come out of the earnings, as such expenditures are made at present while capital for ex- tensions should come from fresh con- tributions.
 Suppose this plan were adopted, the larger the trusts the better for there would be fewer of themy and the problem of supervising them and en- forcing the law would be easier. To do this is simply to apply to the in dustrial combinations the principle that the government through the In terstate Commerce Commission is ap- plying to the railroad companies.
 Fixing Dividend Rate.
 What should be the maximum div idend? Evidently that would depend on several considerations. It should
  duction, iron, cotton, hosiery, silks, etc. Much would depend on the real cap ital subscribed and paid by the share holders. A trust whose stock repre- sented no capital but only water should not be entitled to receive the same as a corporation whose capital has been fully paid and contains no water.
 Again, some of the trusts like the United States Steel, whose stock at one time represented only water, today is represented by large extensions to it's plant, actual property. The prob- lem of determining the amount of div idend and the amount of capital on which it should be paid is perhaps the most difficult problem to solve, but it can be solved, though doubtless time would be required to do this in an intelligent and just manner.
 Whether this suggestion contains any seed worth planting or not, of nothing are we more certain than this ito return to former state of unre- stricted competition is a slump into the muck. It is not forward move ment, tending to promote the general welfare; it is a decadent movement tending to increase ennity, to destroy wealth and to lessen the general well being.
 Whatever be the faults of the pres ent trust organizations, it must be ad- mitted that never under the old sys- tenn was the work of production con- ducted with such economy and gen. eral efficiency, never were bankrupt cies so few. never were the men em- ployed during sickness and other dis tress so well looked after and so great ly aided as at present. If the spirit of selfshness and domination has been accentuated by the creation of recent industrial combinations, the spirit of kindIiness and helpfulness has been displayed as never before in this coun- try or any other"
