Even since the Standard Oil Company
began buying up and consolidating the pct
rolcum refineries of the country under one
management, and dcuionstiato.il tho ability
' of combined capital to control the quantity
quality and prices of both tbo crude and
refined product of tho cntlro oil fields of
America, tbcro has been a constantly srow'
ing tendency to combination on tbo pjrlol

commodity, both useful and ornamental
for which a demand has ever been created.
Of course tho process of concentration was
for a few years a slow one, and the dovel
opment of such consolidated Interests Into
what are now known as trusts has been of
Tory recent dato. But It has bocn disco?'
crcd that the dear, good people aro very
forbearing and subservient to the will of
the captains of Industry, and theso same
captains hayc, therefore, been encouraged
to reach out a ltttlo furthor and with less
of sccrocy as to their methods, until at tho
present tlmo fully 75 per cent, "of tho legltl
mate business of the country is controlled
by less than 1 per cent, of Its people, and
that too under methods of proccduro ones
. tlonable as to legality ad morally as dis
honest as sin itself.
Tako the coal combination for exatnplo,
Under existing regulations the producers
are robbed by wholesalo at one end, whllo
the consumers are mulcted at tho other,
The unfortunate miner must purchase his
power and supplies of a corporation at
trust prlcos of 800 per cent. profit, and then
recelvo pay for about two-thirds the coal ho
mines at starvation prices for his labor. lie
is then expectod (and in many cases in
quired) to spend his money at a pluck-mo
storo owned and operated by tho same cor
poratlon, and after his supplies, groceries
and rent are paid he Is oftener in debt to
the company than otherwise. The combl
nation controls tbo amount of coal to be
mined, and whenever thero is danger of a
well-stocked market tho mines are closed
down. Many a gigantic coal strike during
tho past ten years has been" sought and
forced by the operators In order that an ex
cuse might bo furnished for advancing tho
prices of coal to tbe retailer. A corporation
with one million tons ot coal on hand finds
it profitable to Inaugurate a strlko by oppres
sing tho workers and then advance rates
one dollar a ton ''because of the strike.'
This has been dono and will doubtless be
done again. Tho coal barons are rapldlv
becoming millionaires, while tho toilers
who risk their lives for a bare subsistence
t6 amass their wealth for them are dally be'
coming more wretched and debased, with
little hope for better things this side of the
grave.
But tho people whom circumstance has
decreed shall work for theso trust monopo1
lies are not tho greatest sufferers by any
means. It is the multitude who must have
their products on which to live. Thc far
mer in his purchases must pay tribute to
the Iron and sleel, oil, bagging and twine
trusts, and then find himself at tho mercy
of the flour combination when he wants to
Bell his wheat. lie Is between the upper an
nether millstone, and, if there is not a mort
gaga on Ills farm to-day, Its dollars to
doughnuts there will be In less than two
years at tbe pace we aro now traveling In
that direction. The mechanics and labor
ers In the cities if possible aro worse off than
the agricultural workers. Kvery thing-thj
poor man's family require to make them
eomfortable is constantly being cnchauccd
In valuo by tho formation of trusts, whllo
tbe same power is being used to reduce his
wages and condition to that of a menial
serf. So great a necessity as sugar has
' been advanced In prico by the combination
of rcflnors over 60 per cent, in tho last
twelve months, and tho estimated profits
for'the Sugar Trust for 1SS9 aro not less
than fifty millions of dollars. They iiavo
.'declared a dividend of nearly nine millions
'tflor.Uio quarter, and tho canning season
Julias only just commenced. Here Is a con.
undrum: With common while sugar at ten
cents now, what will It cost to sweeten
poor man's cup of coffeo in 1801.
But it seems useless to go further with
detail. A similar illustration could be given
with reference to nearly every single thing
useful to mankind in general. The ques'
tlon to be considered at this tlmo is: What
can be dono about it? Legislation lias been
attempted by soyeral States to remedy the
evil by making such combinations contra
band of law, but with no success as yet.
syndicate controlling fifty millions of dol
lars can drive a team througli any law ever
framed if it pleases them do so. The peo
ple are well-nigh helpless when It comes to
a contest In tbo courts.
But something must be doncT and that
ycry soon. Trusts aro robbers and tho peo-
plo are being swindled at every turn. What
Is wanted now Is a few judges who aro not
blinded by the glitter of shining gold, and
who will bo ablo to discern tho thief In
broadcloth.as well as tho vagrant In rags,
The man who steals a sack of flour Is sent
to prison; the men who, under guise of law,
rob tho people of millions go uusvlilpt of
justice. To steal the flour is theft; to
mulct tho people of millions is business,
We wondor if there is no limit to the ua
tlence of a suffering people We bellev
there is, and we fear that when their pati
ence at last becomes exhausted there may
be some who aro to-day deaf to their en
treaties who will sorrow that tboy did not
sooner hearken to the people's cry. Labor

BROADBRIM'S fl.'-Y. LETTER,
"Prisoner stand up," said tho crlor, and
Charles J. Do Baun, tbe faith less paying
teller of the National Park Bank of the
City of Now York advanced to the front of
tho Judge, no stood accused of tho crime
of forgery ; but that was the least of his of
fences; for occupying one of the most exal
cd positions In the financial world, tbe
third officer ono of tho most stable banks
In tho union, ho was not only a forger, but
for ten ears ho had been a common thief.
It seems almost inconceivable that this man
associated with tho foremost financiers of
tho day, tho trusted officer of one of tho
greatest monlcd corporations In tho United
States and who was handling millions and
millions of dollars, should havo been a
common tblcf. His robberies go back
over ten years, and all this tlmo ho was a
leader In fashionablo society, a member of
icvcral cMho swell clubs, a yachtsman, and
a prorhlnont churchman, who occasionally
read homilies to the Young Men's Christ
ian Association to point our unwary youth
to the straight and narrow path.
Looking at the man as ho stood in the
dock It was difficult to understand why tho
mental strain of such a terrible llfo did not
kill him. Hundreds of men havo killed
here, in this city, to be relieved of a thou
sandth part of tho dreadful anxiety that ho
must have suffered for years. Yet as those
who were most closely associated with htm
look back, they remember nothing but the
cool, calm, bcU poised man who, living a
llfo conscious rectltudo, defied the chances
of fate. His family was one of the best
known on tbo fashionable Hill district of
Brooklyn, and his wife, a beautiful woman
was proud of her husband, proud of her
homo and proud of children, and when tho
crushing news was brought Jiomc to her,
by his flight that her husband was a thief,
It nearly killed her; but when sbo realized
that he was not only a thief, but had been
systematically robbing tho bank that trust
ed him for ten years, her despair know no
bounds. She was forced to give up her
beautiful borne her children were taken
from tho schools sho bad been attending,
for the other children taunted them with
their father's cilme. But the end came this
week. Assured that if ho put the country
to the expenso of a trial that his accumul
ated sentences would be equivalent to im
prisonment for life, ho was allowed to
plead guilty to forgery In tho third degree,
and so escapes with a sentence of nine
years, which his good conduct may rcduco
to seven. When will young men realize
the truth of that homely old adage, "Hon
esty Is the best policy." I know it's old
fogyishjitis not fast, but it is true. Mr,
Do Baun rellzes it this morning as ho
marches with cropped balr to tbe lock step
with murderers and thieves who for the
next few years will bo his only companions,
His heart-broken wlfo realizes It as she sits
weeping In the midst of her children whom
"their father has over disgraced. Think of
this, my youthful friend, and If you feel in
cllned to go in for a jack-pot, or a horso
race, or a flyer on stocks, if you can't do It
on your own money don't try it on any
body elso's, Tako my advice Don't.
A singular case came to light in tho
Surrogates Court this week which might
furnish groundwork for a novel by Wllklo
Collins or Harrison Alnswortb. A few
years ago an old merchant named l'eek
died, leaving a" fortune of about one hun
dred thousand dollars to his widow. The
couplo never had any children, but had
lived for each other In a very humble way,
rolling up the dollars which aro now tho
subject of a suit, till death tapped' at the
door, and Mr. Peck answered the call,
When Mr. Peck was safely deposited be
neath tho daises, Mrs. Peck felt exceeding
ly lonesome, but lonesome as sho felt she
showed no great desire to find a successor
to the departed Peck, nor Indeed wero there
many applicants for tho vacancy, for after
Mr. Peck's demise Mrs. P. began to display
an Inordinate love for good old rye, and as
sbo lived all alone in her big house without
oven the companionship of a cat, or a dog,
or a dickey bird, sue had nothing to do but
get up in tbe morning, fill liertelf up like a
demijohn, and when sho was full lie down
on the floor or any other convenient place,
and prepare herself for a second dose,
li'hat few relations Bho had gayo tho old
lady a pretty wide berth; for when she was
In her tantrums even tho butcher boy hard
ly dared to look over tho fence, for it was
lier.haW to Iotjdrlvo a skillet, a pot lid, or
whatever came handy at any ono sho found
looking at her. Tho only person who en
joyed any kind of Immunity was the doc
tor, and as sho was In a vcry'muddled con
dltlon all the tjmo, the doctor prececded to
feather his nest. He Induced tho old lady
to make a will, giving him all her property
and when the will was finished he tried to
get her committed to a lunatic asylum so
that she could never make another. When
the will was made tho old lady put It away,
and refused to let tbe doctor tako care of It,
but lie was equal to tho occasion, and stole
the will, offering It for probate after Mrs,
Peck's death. There Is no doubt but the
will must bo rejected, and that the proper
ty will go to Mrs. Peck's relatives who aro
very poor. Moral: If any of your rich re
lations aro dying keep your oye on tho doc
tor.
for years wo have been blessed with a
Josh Houso that would have delighted tho
heart of Confuclous; but It is only this
week for the first time In our history that
wo have had a genulno Chinese Theatre,
Some stupid persons I know will begin to
laugh at the Idea of a Chinese Shakespeare
or a celestial Gilbert and Sullivan, but It Is
no laughing matter my friend. I doubt If
you understand the first principles of
dramatic construction. Think of
tragedy in a hundred and forty-nine acts
and a musical comedy in two hundred and
ninety-eight. None of your "Patience,'
that "Pinafore," or "Pirates of Penzance,'
that is all over in a couple of hours, but
good solid musical entertainment that will
last you for six mouths, and then llko
Oliver Twist mako you ask for more.
And tragedy means tragedy with them and
no scollops. When you look at the heayy
tragcdlau In his war paint you feel in your
heart that ho would just as soon eat you as
cut off your head. He tells you so him
self, and you never doubt his word, for he
looks -like just that sort of man. Then
thero Is a delightful unconventlonallty
about the Chlneses drama which Is ycry re
freshing to a barbarian, During tbe per
formance of tho Warrior Llfo and Deeds of
the Great Chung Hi Foo Lun Kee, one of
orchestra, which sits at tbe back of the
stage on a raised platform, felt a flea In hi
stocking. He stopped in tho middle of an
exquisite solo on his brazan torn torn, and
went for the flea. He was a bustler from
Hustlervllle, and he made it so lively for
that flea that no doubt he wished himself
back on tho Yany Wy Foo. A thundrous
burst of applause rewarded tbe capture,
and it certainly was ne of tho most inter
esting features of the performance. Tho
piece which was begun this week will end
some time between New Year's and
Christmas. Tho tragedy Is very high
toned, and the actors are all first class.
There aro no women In tbe company, tho
fcrnalo parts being performed try young
men as they were In England a couple of
centuries ago. Tho orchestra Is ono of
the best that has ever left China, the per
formers being all Court musicians, and
away, away up. The Instruments are very
fine, consisting of a brass gong, a. pair of
chopsticks, two horso fiddles, and a
mlnlaturo banjo. Some of the overtures
reminded me very much of Wagner when
all the Rhine bogles and clflcs and other
uncanny spirits get to raising thunder un
der the waters of tho Rhine, when the
waves roar and tho winds howl and tho
lightnings flash, and tbo thunders roll.
Yes, it is yery IKagneilan. The follow
with tbe chopsticks puts In some yerv fine
work, and always In tho wrong place, but
a brass gong Is tho thing to lead an orchestra
with after all. You can't fool a Chinese
leader for a cent, for ha can bring bis
orchestra un overy time with a round
turn. Onco they start thero Is no non
sensical changes of scene; In fact they
don't want any scenery at all. Tho
costumes are gorgeous and props, first class,
Tho bouse has been crowded oyery night;
outside barbarlaus paying a dollar a pop
for tbo privilege of seeing this Celestial
performance. Tom Lee, a wealthy In
habitant of Chinatown, is proprietor or
tbe show, and it matters go on with him as
he has beeuu.. there Is little doubt but
Thomas may clear fifty or .a hundred
thousand dollars by the venture.
The schools all closed this wcok, and for
tho next sixty days we shall havo our
ltttlo darlings with us worrying our llyes,
out, making us wish that the scallawag
who first Invented Bummer vacations for
boys and girls, bad been gathered to his
fathers before tho Idea struck blm.
Our glorious Independence Day came to
us on Thursday, and was eelobrated with
a good Deal of the old time snap and ylm
thougli our other celebrations in tbe past
few months havo been so numerous and
exhaustive that they have robbed the
Fourth of July of much ot its ancient
glory. One of the great features of the
day was the letter carriers parade, which
was reviewed by tho new postmaster, Mr,
van Colt. Last year, when tho same
tiling was attempted, it was abandoned
finally, as it was understood that Post
master Pearson (since dead) was opposed
to it. But the day passed quietly and
without serious accident, mainly owing to
the enforcement of tho city ordinance
which forbids the use of firearms, or tho
explosion of fire works.
The weather has been Intolerably hot,
and that portion of our population which
cannot Indulge- In Europe or Saratoga, aro
taking their rovengo out of Coney Island,
which Is now shining out In all Its glory,
The Immortal Pat Gllmoio makes tbo air
sweet at ono end of tbe Island, and Herr
Scldel of the Grand German Opera re
echoes tbe soft music of the summor
waves at tho other. The ardent loyer
strolls along the ocean sands In tbo soft
moonlight, dividing tho precious tlmo be
tween kisses and a ten cent bologna,
which bo got from the fried sausage man
up by Ihe Eltel Tower. Think of it Fried
sausage, merry-go-rounder. Bock Beer un
Schwltzcr kase. Oh, rapture, ! Happy day,

THE JOLLY OLD MARINER.
A Jolly old mariner calling the sea.
Was roaring a sotoand thus thundered he.
"Our ship Is as bold as an eagle on wing.
And she carries a cargo that's fit for a king;
A cargo that's welcome to peasant or pope,
Our ship she is laden with IVORY SOAP. .
"I've plowed all the oceans to every port,
To visit all nations and climes Is my sport;
We carry our goods to the ends of the world,
Our trade Is announced on our banner unfurled;
See! blasoned on pennant from top-mast and ropet
We bring to all people the Ivory Soap.'
"From Procter & Gamble, my lads, do you mind?
We carry a blessing to gladden mankind;
For dirt is a foe to the body and soul,
And soap must precede e'en the gospel's control;
Then hurrah I hip hurrah I for philanthropy's hope, ,
Hurrah for the advent of Ivory Soap,
"Its bars, like tho truth, or a life-saving boat,
Ever rise to the top and triumphantly float;
As the foam on the wind-fretted billow 'tis light,
As the elephant's tuilc it Is glossy and white;
The poets all praUe it In measure and trope,
The ocean Is thundering IVORY SOAP."
A WORD OF WARNING.
There are many white soaps, each represented to Be "Just as good as the'lvory';"
they ARE NOT, but like all counterfeits, lack the peculiar and remarkable qualitio
of the genuine. Ask for "Ivory" Soap and insist upon getting It.
