Of course it is a kind of a Lr. Parkurst reform idea that ban struck that wicked city. After reading the proceedings of the diflereit legislatures of the variant) states of the Union reardmjr tlie election of U. a. senators it ought to convince every voter in the land that the popular vote of the people is the only right way to elect U. S. sen j tors. 80 YEARS' Imperialism seems almost sure to be defeated in the final wind up. The trea ty of peace betweeL the United States and Spain, will no doubt be ratified either during the present session of congress, or at a special session of the Senate immed lately alter March 4tli next. Uut, we beliovo th United States never ouht to be jenuitted to annex the I'hilipiue is lands. 0C0OK00000000000000 ADOUT TRUSTS A Part of Governor Pingree's Message Delivered to the Michigan Legislature Just Recently. A Complete Exposition Of its Business Destroying Methods and Influences. ' 4 - a4 T"L! -T77z!l A a ',. wlAa ' Mt .- iaa 1 An slated in theuoltinius of the JOURNAL aome two or three weeks ago, we believ ed Lincoln was tntitled to the next U. S. Senator and that lion. David E. Thomps oe, whs the logical man for that exalted dignity. We adhere to that belief still, while we are most emphatically opposed to the republican doctrine of expansion anc trusts, yet we believe Mr. Thompson being a millionaire, and hence when he ets into the Senate, the trusts and mon opolies which are creations of rebuplian istn, more especially of the present ad ministration will have to pay more of their hoarded and illgotlen wealth to buy Mr. Thompson, in order to pass trust and monopoly legislation. Semtor Caffery, of Alabama, declared in a speech on the floor of the senate last week in opposition to the ratification of the peace treaty (unless amended so aa to prevent annexation) that if this govern ment should undertake to control and govern the Philippine Islands, as a colon ial government, that the home govern ment would have at 'least $275,000,000 more annual expenses than before the war with Spain. The export trade of the Islands, for any one' year all told, amovnUto but $30,000,000- Thus the home government would be short only $2 15,000,000 'at toe' dose of the fiscal year provided however, that we obtain the f;iilire export trade. Can the United States afford to give so much boot in the trade? . Think of it How can sane men think of annexation? It must be admited by everyone who have evar read or heard of "Bob" Inger aol, that ha is a smart, je a brilliant man In his chosen prffeasionaNawyer but when he steps aside from his Henient and goes on to the rostrum to proclaim to a dying world that there is do Savior of mankind, that heaven and hell are but A myth; then it in. we have brought to onr mind moat forcibly what the royal psalmist nay in the 14th Chapt. and drat verse. "The fool hath said in his heart there Is no Ood," hence in Mr. lngersol'a inOdalic lecture at Omah. oniy but week, ba undertook to make ('ba f a ple who were ao devoid of reason as t give him audience) believe Christ was not di vine aod the Bible a mera myth and that the bright prospecta of the future descri bed in that old, sac red book was a snare and a delusion to the children of man and was robbing Uhiu of true liappineas in lift, wa cannot belp but believe the Psalmist was devlaely inspired and raw with prophetic vleiea that such man as Iagtraol would teak to pull sown the Heavenly throoe aod deatroy the book of booki and ita influence aod supply ootb Jnf to taka IU pteco. There is no feature of our times that should so alarm the patriot, nor is there auy so well calculated to drive the well-meaning legislator to des pair, as that which confronts us on all sides in the rapid concentration of all the productive energies of the nation in the hands of overgrown corpor ations or multiple corporations, called trusts; or where more solid combi nations cannot be effected, by means of inter-corporate agreements for the purpose of limiting comptition and controlling prices. The process began with the means of transportation and intercommu nicationnamely, the railroads, telegraph and telephones. In spite of the elfart of the Federal Interstate Commerce law to check the tendency, it has continued almost uninterruptedly, and promises to continue in the future. Indeed, the process of concentration of ownership and management has proceeded much more rapidly since that law was passed than before. Where purchases or leases could not be effected, traflc agreements have been entered into which accomplish tiie purpose almost as effectively. Where these agreements have been open and public, the commission has in some instances interpesed a check, but such interruptions to the process have only driven the promoters to more ingenious and secret devices to 1 evade the law. 1 It is no extravagance of despair to anticipate the time In the not dis- tant future when the passenger and freight rates on every train traversing i the country, when the charges for telegraph and telephone services in I every state, and the ownership and control of every street car line and suburban railroad shall be centered in one great office in the city of Mew York, in ttie hands of one board of managers, and possibly in the hands of a man who may have the genius and the power to control his fellows It has invaded other fields with the power of a glacier and the rapidity of a torrent One by one each of the great staples which form the neces ! saries of life is falling into the handsof its special syndicate, or trust, or trade combine, which are but other names for a groop of men, dominated by one man of superior force and genio, into whose single hand is concen trated more power than any king possesses, and in comparison to whom the robber barons of fudal ages were pigmies in their capacity for extortion and oppression. ' Sa ' THE FEDERAL LAWS AREjV JWKRLESS TO REMEDY.. The anti-trust laws of the Federal Government have fallen powerless before them. Constitutional restrictions have been interpreted by the courts so as practically to make tbos. laws a dead letter, In deed, no per iod of our history has witnessd so rapd and noxious a growth of trusts and combines as the few years since tt? National Congress undertook to re strain and restrict them. '' These combines formed or organized since the Anti-Trust law was pass ed by Congress in 1890, and controlled by a comparatively few men, who control a capita,! of nearly three and a half billion of dollars, equal to 20 per cent of the entire welth of the scea millions of agricultural population scattered over more than four und a half millions of farms, a capital more than twice the aggregate of the entijfe circulating medium of the country. Nor is this by any means the sufci of the trust and combine element in the country. Hundreds of articles are governed in their price by secret agreements which do not make tliei apperrance as legally organized com panies. If you enquire carefully you will discover that you can scarcely make a purchase in which the prices not dictated by a combination over which the mercliant you deal with jhas no control Each of these great trusts aims for the most part to control but one staple, although some of themtreach out for many. The control of the iron aod steel and of the coalfcds of the country is slowly drifting toward a single center. As the orfaniaations grow more powerful, all re lated industries will be combined i one control for each great class, as m the case of iron and coal. 1 TIIE DEATH IpF COMPETITION. Eren in the small retail tradifg of our cities the process of concentra tion is only too apparent. Our cities no longer present the once familiar aspect of miles of busy streets, oatupied by thousands of small but respec table merchants, each doing a moSest but respectable and satisfactory busi ness and trade with his more immediate r he had been trained by long ex; a modest competence for his ol of an honored name and reputa a family property as his house All around this great center; of honesty and thrift, have becoi STOCK BRANDS.
