Antwerp
By George Fitch Author lot At Good Old SIwash'

Antwerp. a city for which Germany would readily pay $10O,OOO,0o0 cash or 100000 lives, is situated on the River Scheldt in the north part ot Belgium. The Scheldt is d lazy, me andering stream which flows through a flat country, and was originally Tt only to raise bullfrogs in. But the Belgians dried it out and lined II with wharves, and treated shipping SO hospitably that the city IS now second only to New York in com merce, a fact which causes the Lon don citizen such acute pain that it IS a pity to mention it in his presence
 Antwerp unloads the produce of the world and passes them on to Ge.- many and other countries, collecting duties on them first. This is why Germany would reatily allow 100000 Germans to be shot into useless re- mains if it could gain Antwerp there by. It needs Antwerp in it's busl . ness.
 Antwerp is older than the mother
 law joke. It was a husky town Tn the eighth century, ana those tour
 sts who have had to ride over it's streets are inclined to believe that the pavements were there before the town was. For many centuries Ant werp grew and prospered, but 1t was hard work. There was scarcely year when the citizens did not have to close up the stores and go out on the walk to defend the town from some
 grabby prince. Antwerp has belonged to almost every European nation and visitor equipped with anything but the English language can get along very comfortably.
 Antwerp invented the habeas cor pus, and also brought up Reubens and Van Dyck It has an enormous two-a acre cathedral full of pictures

 The Clayton bill it was originally drawn was meant for the real curbng of the trusts But understood if understandable in all it's parts at all The author of bill displayed gross unfamiliar ity with his subject The effect of some of the pro- visions would have been quite different from those obviously aimed at. But the house accepted the in for the deed and passed the bill with little change.
 The senate gave it ineligible form without the removal of it's more sensible, drastic features and passed it. The conferees however have removed from it those provisions which were especially inm- ical to the trusts, the personal guilt feature, and they also robbed it of those provisions by which the honest business man might avail himself of supreme decisions which have been uttered for the guidance of those who desire to obey and not to evade the law. The conference agreement ator Reed asserted would be welcomed by the men who organized the Standard Oil company, the to- bacco trust, the sugar trust and the who footed the New Haven railroad.'
 In conclusion, the senator instituted a sarcastic the bill in this shape with the members of congress who passed the sherman bill.
