The democrats who are making sc
much noise about the fusion between
the republicans and progressives Of
this county and who lay SO much stress
on the fact that the recent state pro.
gressive assembly adopted resolution
against fusion, should remember that
the records of the office of secretary Of
state shows that in large majority Of
the legislative districts Of the state the
republicans and progressives have fused
on the candidates for the state legisls-
ture showing very plainly that the res
olution of the state assembly does no,
express the position of the mass Of the
party on the question Of fusion.

The Harvester Trust
Ordered to Dissolve

The court of appeals, in deciding
that the International Harvester COM
pany should be dissolved because it
constitutes what, under the Sherman
law, may be classified as a trust,
seems to have given the company a
| clean bill of health, so to speak, not
withstanding the decision.
Judge Sanborn, while expressing
profound respect for the opinion of
his associates on the bench, felt i'm
PEELED to file a dissenting opinion,
holding that, within the meaning of
the law, the company does not consti-
tute a trust.
According to press dispatches out
lining in brief the gist of the courts
views, including the dissenting opin-
decision is based upon facts and in
cidents connected with the original
organization Of the company and the
acquiring of the plants through pur-
chase OF the competing companies.
All of the judges concerned in the
decision appear to unite in saying
that prices have not been advanced
because of the consolidation in pro-
portion as great as the general ad-
vance of prices, and the company is
unanimously acquitted OF any oppres-
sive acts in the conduct Of its bust
ness.
1t is announced that the case will
be appealed to the supreme court of
the United States for final adjudica-
ton, pending which the company's af-
fairs will proceed as if the lower
court had not rendered its recent de-
cision.
Judge Sanborn, in his separate opin-
ion, speaking Of prices, says:
Their prices to the re-
manned nearly stationary and in
creased far less than the prices of
other agricultural machinery the
trade in which was not claimed to
have been restrained or monopolized.
The chief harvesting machine was the
binder. Its price advanced about 5
per cent during some of the interme-
date years, but was substantially the
same in 1912 for q better machine
than it was for a poorer machine in
1902, while the price Of cultivators,
wagons and plow goods, which were
certainly not monopolized, advanced
from 10 to 80 per cent. And the acts
of the defendants and the proved eff
feet of their acts during at least seven
years before this suit was commenced
to my mind demonstrate the fact that
they were neither unduly nor unrea-
sonably restraining Or attempting to
monopoIze interstate or foreign trade

Little Bit of Match
And What 1t Caused

For want of the nail the shoe was
lost;
For want Of the shoe the horse was
lost;
For want of the horse the man got
lost,
And all for want of a hose shoe nail.
To this effect runs a rhythmic bit
of moral teaching which used to be
found in the school readers Of days
gone by.
Walter Snodgrass probably never
read it.
He, accompanied ty a friend, went
to the lake Sunday morning, having
arranged to meet Mrs. S. at Stony
Point later in the day. The good
lady did her part, and waited and
waited, and then waited, but no Snod-
grass appeared on the horizon, or
elsewhere for that matter, nor any
body that could properly be mistaken
for Snodsrass-so she waited still, or
rather, still waited, for she was any
thing but still by this time.
She phoned and called, and went
out on the skirmishing line, and fin
ally got some help to locate her lost
spouse. After various and diverse
efforts some n finally spotted him
at the pumping station, vainly work
ing over his baking motor. The wa
ter was very rough, the wave had
been dashing high, and Snodgrass. af-
ter falling despite his repeated efforts
to make the thing go, had drifted or
rowed or padded or swan OR waded
to shore, seasick, heartsick, hand-sore,
mind-sore, body-bruised and ready to
give UP the ghost.
He had taken the motor apart, had
put it together, had frightened a screw
here, had loosened one there, had
quietly kicked himself half a dozen
times, had hired others to do it for
him after he had become exhausted,
and had repeated the performances,
but all to no purpose. After years
of effort condensed into a single day,
he gave it up, and wendell his way
home.
His good wife bathed his forhead
with cold cloths half the night to re-
