HE aggrandizement of the few at the expense of the fanny is not PROSPERITY". Tho intelligent people of this country are finally making up their minda that thoty will no longer suffer such a condition to be created or fostered by the abuse of the public franchisee of the country/ under which our public service corporations exist, and they are prepared to elect legislatures and courts and public officials who will evyn RE SUME SUCH FRANCHISES, take them hack, unless such abuses are stopped. / We cry out against trusts, but the legislators whom we elect busy themselves passing laws to enable trusts to be formed, and then they pass laws to curb trusts called antitrust laws; in fact, they Mmotimea pass BOTH KINDS OF LAWS in the same session, Gould any thing be more ludicrous? The people are taken for mere fools by their chosen representatives. All of the trusts are forced under statutes enabling one corporation to own tho shares of oi tions. In that way any number of. corporations may be b: DER THE CONTROL OF ONE CORPORATION, your trust. A big company is prone to forget the obligations of the several companies it controls to the government and to the people WHO CREATED THEM and endowed them for a public sendee. The law is that the city or an individual is only obliged to pay if gaa company a fair price. That can bo ascertained only by examining its books to find tho cost of production. But, forgetting that gaa/companies aro not private and independent manufacturing or trading /companies, but on the contrary public service corporations, a big gaq trust tells the city that the cost of manufacture of gas is its private matter and NONE OF THE CITY’S BUSINESS. Tbs "change of life" la the most critical period of a woman's existence, and the anxiety felt by women as it draw* near la not without reason. Every woman who neglects the care of her health at this time in vitee disease and pain. When her yatem la in When one man’s oil is carried to market at $1 a barrel while his rivals have to pay $2 nothing is left to them BUT TO QUIT; that is the end of rivalry. Railroad companies are not private companies conducting a private business and free to do as they please. Our iron roads are just as much public highways os aro our dirt roads,.and the people of the country do not propose to see these, their public high ways, any longer used to enrich the few at the expense of the many, and if it cannot be stopped any other way THEN THE GOVERN MENT WILL HAVE TO TAKE BACK THESE FRAN CHISES. If all the evils of private control of these highways could have been foreseen the government would never have turned them over to private individuals. MY OWN IDEA It THAT THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD APPOINT THE GENERAL FREIGHT AGENT OF EVERY' RAILROAlfi IN THE COUNTRY AND IN THAT WAY BE ABLE TO 8BE THAT? NO DIS CRIMINATION WHATEVER BE GIVEN IN-FREIGHT RAT]|si THAT THE ESTABLISHED RATE AND EVERY ONE. NO OTHER RATX BE PAID BY The Feeling Toward Missionaries In Far Eastern Countries ay sir I By Mr HENRY MORTIMER DURAND, Britlih Ambiuador to the United State* N those parts of the east where I have served missionaries pro not always regarded with favor by the officials, merchants and others with whom they are brought into contact. I have known many laymen who believed in missionary work and supported it heartily, but I have also known many who did not. I have often heard it argued that missionary work in those regions is at heat wasted AND IS OFTEN HARMFUL; that practically no re sults follow from the expenditure of so many valuable lives and of so much labor and money which would be much more usefully expended AT HOME; that the missionaries make few converts, and that those they make cannot be trusted; that by attacking the religion of the peo ple about them the missionaries arouse hostility against *11 Christians and that they are, in fact, a perpetual source of embarrassment and anxiety to their governments. I have heard these things snd THINGS WORSE THAN THESE said of the missionaries. It must be admitted that they are not universally popular among their countrymen in the east 1 ,. ' Missionary work is difficult and delicate work, and in fairness to governments, aa well as .to individuals, hotheaded and tactless men, HOWEVER DEVOTED, should not be sent out to do It Providing missionaries are of the right stamp, if I were ever again an administra tor or diplomatist in a non-Christian country, I would frqm a PURE LY" BUSINESS point of view, as a government official, far sooner have them than not to have them within the limits of my charge. AND FROM WHAT I HAVE BEEN THE PEOPLE OF THE COUNTRY, TOO, WOULD FAR SOONER HAVE THEM THAN NOT TO HAVE THEM. No Man Was Ever Born Great” By R«v. R, P, JOHNSTON. John D, Rockefeller'* New York Pastor 'f £ ■ HEN Shakespeare said that some men are horn great, some * * I achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon them, he said two things that aro NOT TRUE ever had greatness thrust upon him, although HAVE BEEN THRUST into greatness, where his true asserted themselves. No man was EVER born great, nltl may have been born with the capacity to BECOME great. Wherever there are skill and proficiency and perfection, 1 behind it there is the price to be paid for it. Man is a bundle of pc ti ncics, of original possibilities; ACTUALLY he is very little.
