Itapsber, of Mauch Chunk, cogently remarks In conclusion: "Is this "bugaboo?" From tho earliest times, when tha common law was in its formative uertods, until now all mercenary combination thai attempted to control! nod monopolize the markets and necessaries of life, no matter for how short a time, were iu law held to be conspiracies. 1 he law remains the same, but tboso gigantic an- rregallons of capital and brains which now exist def' the law, and too often control, or at least improperly InUuence, the law-mak lng and the law-adtulnlslurlug powers of our country. In my opinion here lies, after all, by far the greatest dilllcully. Mr. McMurtre distinctly recognizes this difficult', and, after recommending orlbes for information by forfeitures to Inure to the informer where prooerty is used for for bidden purposes, savs: "If the Legislature Is really In earnest and the Courts but mod eratelv faithful the evil will be extirpated I believe that if tho equity powers and inr lsdiclion of the State and Federal Courts were enlarged so as to clearly empower inem to restrain mo wrong-doors by liilunc tion, and to corupsl the Trusts to perforin required tilings by mandamus and attach inent, with authority to inmost) costs and expenses of all sorts upon them and make certain acts of the Trusts prima facie uvi dence of illegal combination, that It would piove to be a highly eliiclent and satlsfact ory remedy To abolish limited partner ships and corporation charters would no doubt make the remedy worse than the ills ease. Hence, if we naturally slit lute, as Mr, jucwurtrlo minus, from enforcing a crluii nal penalty "to reach the rich and lnfluen tlat wrong-doers," let us give aroplo equity gurisiucuon to our oiate ana r euerai uourts with amp e provision for all expenses In cldont to the litigation, and we shall have a most suitable forum to hero and deter mine upon principles of equity thes groat questions of public concern. Let us bv im propriate, legislation leuiove all doubt as to the duly of the Attorney General to Inter fere, and also remove all doubt as to the powers and jurisdiction of the Courts, and the eyil will then soon depart, if the said authorities will perftrm their plain duties it tuey ret use to, let tncui be removed from omce. It may seem superfluous, but I shall con elude by calling attention to the claims of the Single lax partv. in reference to it policy upon Trusts; It strongly Insists that b) the abolition of all tariff laws and all taxes unon industry, and hv niacins all taxation upon land values. Irrespective of improvements, mat mists would nut exist. Indeed, it will be remembered that dining me recent rresuientlal campaign many prominent Democrats took the position that tho to-called protective tariff fostered ano protected Trusts, ami mat if it were wiped out Ti lists would toon die n natural death. The Single Tax party applies the knife of reform much lower down and nearer the root of the evil. Dut, however mis may be, we cannot wait for such reform remedies; we must have something sooth lng in the meantime. BROADBRIM'S I. Y. LETTER As we cannot havo another lrashington Centennial for a bundled years and there will not be many of us 'eft to enjoy the oc casion I can And nothing uime interesting to write about than the circumstances and things which, during the hurry and bustle of Uen'tnnlal week and the weeks which precceJed it, I was obliged u overlook. Ana. right here at the start, let ue pause for a moment to pay a passing uibtite of respect and honor to William Murray, th Superintendent ot the nolioe ef New York Jfr. Murray's name has not figured much In ine reports of the Centennial. Kverybodj nas nearu of Air f ish. air. Uerrv. j-i Ward JcAlllster, not to mention President Harrison, Vlce-I'ieident Morton, all the secretaries, judges, generals, colonels, and lesser dignitaries with whom woliavolatel been honored and blessed, but few hav heard much of Superintendent Murray, and yet, to no ouo man, aye, tonooue tiun dred men connected with tho celebration, was it indebted for its success as much as to him. With a force of less than l thousand available men for, recollect, the whole city had to be taken care of as well as the portions where the celebration actu ally took place, with between two and three millions of people to look out for, he maintained such order and affoided such security to life and propel tv as never was witnessed iu any oilier city on the face of the earth. If anybody withes to under stand what Superintendent .Vurry did, let him go to London or Paris on a gala day, or In fact, he need not go quite so far; let blm go to Philadelphia. Huston, Chicago, Cladnaati r bt Louli, and then h can rea'lze the difference between theso places 1 and Now York. It was ft magnificent :riutuph of discipline In which every officer and man on the force shared the glory of the Chief. At times In the desperate rush and crush it was extremely exasperating to the police. Tho crowd bore down upon them, and some country visitor who had been painting the town red the night before, and was full of good old rye, would say some mean thing that would have exhaust oJ the pitlence of a saint, but tho polite stood It with the courage of maityrs and let Mie ruffians cscapo with an uncracked head to relate to their country cousins when tliev eot home, how they sat down on a New York policeman. Order was every where; peace and security rclnnedsuoreine. The thieves who were at liberty gave the city a wide birth, for they knew from tho fate of a number "of their friends that If they made their appearance on the streets they would be quickly caged behind the bars. The Superintendent waseycrvwheio; whllo ostensibly at his ofllco In Mulberry street, his personality was felt In every portion of the city. There wero hundreds of thousands on tho streets, but there was no disorder, no violence. 'ihouandS ot houses were left ungarded by their owners, but everv one of them was looked after and protected by tho police; visitors from '.be country saw nothing of the btiuco sleerer, or the pickpocket, aud tbev got back Home in saiety. ionnis, an nonur to the police. And now, I will saya word to " H e Centennial People." If vou have any spare change left alter paying all the bills, give a gjoil big gold centennial medal lo tho man who, of all others, contributed most to the success of tho celebration, H illlam Murray, Superintendent of I'ollco of New York. There were many mines took place that It Is Impossible to pass in silence, and ono of the most notable was tho sermon of Bishop Totter at the services in St. l'aul'n church, on Tuesday. SI. Paul's Church Is the only revolutionary landmark lelt stand ing In that part of Broadway. It was here that Washington knell and piayed just be foio taklni! the oath of ofllco. and it was resolved that President Harrison should go tbrough the name foims there. St, Pauls Is very "high church;" on tho front of the pulpit, surrounded by a golden halo of light, Is the sacred legoned found on every Catholic altar, ' I. U. S." Jesu Ilominum Sahater Jesus, tbeBavlorof men. Whim examining some of tho tablets, on Monda , a young man stepped up to me and asked If it was a Catholic cliurcu, -no womier mat, ho thouchl so. The iilslion's sermon was a shock to the more respectable poition of the community; it was not only in exceeu lug bad taste to It, suit the President and lily Cabinet bv his broad and spiteful im plication, but his inferences were false ami his so-called facts untrue, ine ase oi H'ashlngtoa was not au ace of purity or republican simplicity. The republican court was given to pomp and grandeur and show as far as It was able, and the pluto crat was umro of a power In social life and politics In libU than lie-is in itSKJ. votes w ere publicly bought aud sold; riot and violence characteiized their elections, whlon then oceuuied three davs. and the obscenity aud Indecency of their political llteiature llnds no uaraueil in itiese lauer ilavj. Tho Uishop is pining for the sim- micli v of our foiefalhers. and he repre sents and controls the richest and most plutocratic corporation in America; he lives Iu a masnillcent house, surrounded by the most costly luxuries that the earth can produce. Flue paintings, statuary, bronzes aud multitudinous articles ot vcrtu and ornament, costly hanging greet the eye every where, the rarest wines sparkle on His Urace s tabic, and tins is tno way me Episcopal bishop of- New York lllusliatcs his belief In the lowly Nazarine who said. Iho foxes have holes, the birds of tno air have nests, but the Son of Man bath not where to lay his head." It was the stump speech of a clerical cad and snob, who took occasion lo insult tue ctiy s guest, on ine most memorable event of tho century. He speaks of Jefferson and Jackson as vulgar. I'lils will he news to the States that honored them in their day and generation. Thomas Juffetson was a Virginia gentleman of the old school, of high breeding, largo experi ence and courtly manners. Andrew Jack son was a plain blunt man, but a gentle man neycitnsicss, who would nave consid ered himself eternally disgraced to have dono as vulgar and indeccn'. and cowardly a thing as Uishop Potter did In St. Paul's a little over a week ago. There was a good deal of talk about tho behavior at the ball. It was expected that about six thousand people would be (here; about ten thousand actually got in. f ree wine Is a grand mistake, and' It is not at all surprising that In such a miscellaneous crowd some should bo found who violated all rules of decency and order. There were several peoplo who behaved very badl .and the grand Centennial QuadrilK which was the cause of so many heart-scalds, was one of the direst failures of the celebration. Ward McAllister had his revenge, and Fish who ousted him, lias been busy escaping the icporters ever since. Thcro was a terrible financial leak in the sale of seats. The legitimate returns would have given over ninety thousand dollars only thirty-three thousand found IU way into tho tieasury. The gatekeepers waxed fat on the Centennial plunder, and 1 look to see some of them buying brown stone bouses within tho next thirty days. One of the surprises of the last day's pro cession was tho magnificent turn-out made by the Italians. They wero brought slJe 'jy side with some of the tinest organizations In the country, and under the pitiless light of tne noonday sun they lost nothing by the comparison. The man who passes judg ment on our Italian population by the poor and wretched creatures that be sees clean ing out streets or searching our ash barrels, should have seen tho procession of ll'ednes day. In an uggicgatlou of nearly one hundred thousand men, the very best that this nation could turn out, there was no single, bodv tuit suipassed the Italians Iu their soldiery appearance, the splendor of their uniforms, ot In the magnificent civic parade, which was hardly second to the milltarr. It was a proud day for the Italians, and u surprise and a revelation to eyerj bod else. Ono of the unique features of tha Celebra tion was the Loan Collection displayed at tha Metropolitan Opera House, ft was contiibuted by various Institutions and private families, and was, as an historical compendium, worth a whole librarv of books. Here was the fanilh plate of the Yau Henssellaers, the Livingstons, the Do Lanceys, the Do l'eistera, and hundreds of otner old families wuo-c names are equally famous. Hem loo, was Hamilton's court and.sword, John Ja's knee breeches and coat, shoe?, buckles and all, Old Governor Siujvesant's wooden losr, Lafayette's snuff box and miniature, W ashington s army suit and camp equipage, and one of Martha Washington's silk dresses, for which an old clolhesuiau would hesitated tocive seventy- live cents. Portraits of Washington were there bv the dozen, aud no two of them exactly alike. Gilbeit Stuart's picture of Washington, the portrait which is the one aeoapted b posterity held a conspicuous place. The collection was perfectly be wildering, and the visitor departed in doubt, asking himself, "What did ll'ashlugtoii look like?" For mo this question is de finite! settled by a little picture about 0 by SO, painted by Col. Trumbull of Con necticut as a piesent 'from Washington to Martha. Iu commemoration of his birth da . Trumbull was his life-long friend, and Washington gave hlutmany sit lines for this priceless little picture It was a love-gift to his wife, and she treasured It as such up to tlir day or her death, leaving It as a sacred heirloom to her son, Jlr. Custls. Wash Ington Is painted standing besides his horse, and tho face is a characteristic face alto gether, unlike that of Gilbert .Stuart's or cither of the Pelaes. lielng approved by Washington himself, and treasured by his wife, the presumption Is that it Is the most correct likeness extant.

LEVAN, May I. Batrtr, THE VILLAGE Under a spreading chestnut tree The village blacksmith stands, Ar.2 in a brimming basin he Would wash his brawny hands; But something else than" water clean His sooty palm demands. Week in, week out, from morn till night, He might have rubbed, I trow, Had I not given him a cake Of Ivory Soap, when, lo Full soon those honest hands of his Were spotless as the snow. . A WORD OF WARNING. There are many white soaps, each represented to be" "Just as good as the 'Ivory' j" they-ARE NOT, but like all counterfeits, lack the peculiar and remarkable qualities of the genuine.
