Never before, perhaps, did a triataphant warrior rottimiug from a 1 Tietorious campaign receive a more thunderous welcome, ' Though thous and upon thousands witnessed it from ahore and the tuaiu anchorage at TompkinsviUe where the fleet lay fairly ' swarmed with tugs, yachts and steam - rs and every sort of harbor craft, all jet black with wild, cheering exultant pecfla and the towering white walls of the city beyond were brave with a mil 3lo welcoming flags, yesterday's greet lug to Dewey was the greeting of his rosaradei 0f the navy, aud it was emi neatly fitting that his comrades in arms ahamld have the first chance at him whom the million are' waiting honor. The people will begin get at him on Friday and SatWday. ' To outward appearance, the waVeame ha received from the fleet was strictly professional.

"These stories are infamously false," he said. "J never thought of such a thing. I wanted an eHoort of 2,0;K) old soldiers to be a guard of honor to the admiral and to follow him in the parade." ' t Later Colonel Shaw issued a state ment to the public, submitting facts, "iii justification of reqiiMt made to Major General Roe, that the veterans be allowod to have the right of line in the Dewey paradb." Colonel Shaw cites as precedents the places accordod the veteran at the Chicago jubilee and at the reception of the Tenth, regiment, Pennsylvania volunteers, at P ittsbiirg, and adds: "In the light of these com paratively recent parados, the' latter in honor of our gallant soldiers who served in the Philippines, and who possibly heard some of Admiral Dewey's guns, I could not but ' feel that the Gran J Army comvado of yew York, repTQ" seutative of the greatest stat Jn tb. Union, which scut more men than uny other state to preserve the nation front ruin, were as richly entitled to head the line of the Dewey parade as wero the comrades of Penusylvauia to leaf) a dim ilar civic pageant in honor of tir SpHu Mi-American war heroes. "It gives me great pleasure, to extend to Governor Roosevelt, as the com-Bianderin-chief of 350,000Q: A-R. veter ans, my warm cougratulatiQus on tho just and patriotic stand he has taken is behalf of the ageing veterans, of the na tion, in using his influence to have their just request granted that they lead the rnrade in the city of New York in honor nf the groat Admiral Dewey, thus as huiinjf to our newest veteran that, when they grow old in tbuir turn, they kuull tint be the tail of uny public pro cession."

They slipped a cog over at the State Journal office one day last week. How it Impend no one can, tell. The first, patriotic utterance that ever faw the liht of day in its pagt'8 MAtonished the denizens of this city. This is what it said it is re ported that the bofes editor wa away -but it really did appear: ''Life in this republic is getting altogether -too difficult to those who ore inclined to admire the simplicity or the fathers. Perhaps we are over organized. Perhaps we are putting our societies and seeret orders and industrial, asHociutioiiH above the country and the flag, When we do that we initiate a good, deal of trou ble for the future. Let's have a lit tle more of what I-cntz of Ohio calls the "jingle of patriotism" and it little lew of the bazoo of alphabet ical lodgec, orders, associations and union. With so many iniperiuma "in imperio'' uohall get badly tan gled one of these days. Associations of citizens of all kinds have their uses, but they w ill not quite take the place of a common country." The idea that the Journal which has at all other times been an ardent upholder of the trusts should talk about industrial organizations get ting above tlie country and the flag and making complimentary mention, of that (ircy free silverite and anti impiralist Leiitz, nearly took tho breath out of the mulct heads in this town.

The gold bug editors do a good deai of writing about, the s;her trust. There may k p silvi-r trust but it d'c not compare in magnitude to the jiold tru'st. Side by side it would he as a gnat to anclephnnt. Why do no; these men who claim to Iwe all the patriotism of the country fncc in a while write jn?t one little, short paragraph against tho gold trnst? The gold trust en compessen the world. It holds the nations by the throat. It regulates the value nf every day of toil, of ev. cry government bond, of everything that men consume from the eraddle to the tomb. It owns the gold mine and the machinery with which they are worked. It owns the world and all that is in it that men strive for. It fixe? the price which all other trusts may charge for their produc tions. What is the little silver trmt beside a power like this? It is as a crrain of sand on the sou shore. Why do thee editors spend their time in denouncing thii little insignificant trust and never write a word about tho overKweriog, all pervading mid universal gold truety Why?

It was intended the next week to reply to the remainder of the pam phlet, we were only half through with it, but it Mas burped up in the fire that laid the I nd pendent waste. 0- BRYAN OX "TRUSTS. (Continued from 5tb page.) there is competition every employer has to get a good man to meet com petition, but when there is no com petition anybody can sit in the of fice and receive letters an4 answer them when everybody has to write to the same house for anything he wants. (Laughter and applause.) There is no question about it. A trust, a monopoly can lessen the cost of distribution. But wli'cri it does so society has no assurance that it will get any of the benefits from, that reduction of cost in the reduc tion of price. But you will take away the necessity for that skill, for that brains. You will take away the stimulus that, lias given to us the quickness, the alertness of the com mercial traveler, and these men. these commercial evangelist who go from one part of the country to the other carrying the merits of their re spect ivo goods, will not bo needed, because when anybody wants them all he has to do is to write to the one man who has the things for sale and say, "What will you let me have it for today?' (Applause.) " 'Terms and conditions of sale become more uniform and, ,. credits can be more safely granted.' He j cannot only fix the price of what he I sells, biit he can fix the terms upon wnicn ne ecus, l ou can pjy cash, or if there is a discount it is just to much discount, and you have to trust to that man's generosity and his de cision' upon what is fair when he is on one side and von on th? other. I have read these only as 6ome of the ' advantages which a great trust mag nate tlnnks will come from the trust. "What is the first thing to bo ex pected of a trust? That it will cut down expenses. What is the second? That it will raise prices.

I was riding through Iowa and I saw some hogs rooting in a field, and the first thought that came to rue was that those hogs were destroying a great deal in value, and then my mind ran back to the time when 1 lived upon a farm and when we had hogs. "Then I thought of the way in which we used to protect property from the hogs by putting rings iu the noses of the hogs; and then the question i-ame to me. Why did we do it? Not to keep the hogs from gt tin? fat, for we wore more interested in their getting fat than they were; the sooner thev got fat the sooner we killed them; the longer they were in getting fat the longer they lived. But why did w e put the ring in their nose? So that while they were get ting fat they would not dcitroy more than they were worth. (Prolonged applause.) And then the thought came to me (laughter) that one of the great rpuposes of government was to put rings in the noses of hog. (Prolonged applause.)
