the flood nre lichuvltig In u very ill"
graceful way. They Mould, no doubt,
lw very much Hheeked nt the suggest Ien
that tlielr eenduet shown any lnek of
gratitude for the nympathy and naUt
anec tendered, nnd nre thoroughly confi
dent that thclrcnmplaliitfl of the method
of distribution will meet the approval
of the contributor!. Misery eneeurages
wlflshness. Misfortune poems te rob
people of the faculty of reasoning In a
disinterested way. The hufl'crera them
elvea are of all people the least enpnblu
ofprejierly regulating the distribution
of relief, because each one of them Is
most vividly impressed with the needs
of his own particular class of victims.
The man who Itwt thousand ex
pects a larger share than the man
who lebt hundred:, forgetting that the
latter lent his all and that no one can
lese mere than that. The commission
has very wifely decided that, "a distri
bution by )erccntage en the amount of
louses would Ix) manifestly unjust, as It
would result In giving the largest tumi
te the jwrnen having lest the most, with
out regard te the value of the remaining
estate of such )erwns ;" and also that
"the fund must go only te the most
needy sullcrers from the flood."
The men who have Iven se fortunate
as te save enough tom:ikethcmludecn tem:ikethcmludecn
deut of charily should rejoice that a
larger share is thereby left for their com
panions in misery who have lest all ;
and among the latter the flood has lev-
r elled ranks. The fund is u charity te
the needy and net a general Indemnity
for losses, and It must lie rememlicrcd
that the cash distribution is only a part
of the relief that has liccn and Mill lie
given by the feeding and clothing of the
people. The man who lest Jive thous
and nnd receives eighty must remember
that he shared In tliu general nicasiiies
for public relief that have se speedily
refitted the site of Johnstown for
Jmman luihltatlen.
The commlwlen reports that the
Conemaugh valley has already received
relief te the amount of two million two
hundred thousand dollars and, although
there has no doubt been error and waste
, In HemeMirnnehcs of the work, the sud
den emergency appears te have lieen
met with vigor mid geed Judgment.
The calamity must have drawn many
philanthropic and wholly disinterested
jieople te the ground, and If there Is any
Injustice or flagrant abuse of authority
' they would very promptly make It pub
lic. The complaints se far published
1 nerve only te check the general sympa
thy for all the unfortunates, unit there
must le ii large number who deeply
regret the thoughtless talk. The com
mission can iilreril te listen In silence

Farmers and Trusts.
There was a meeting of farmers at l'alr
Hacn, Maryland, lately, and a strong
sentiment was developed in favor of a
combination of some kind. AVhen farm
ers talk of combining, It may UUlluved
that things are going very badly, but
there Is net much chance that aii agri
cultural trust will ever lie formed or even
hcrleusly planned. Kanners nre net
built that way. Tliey will struggle along
and hope for liettcr times until they are
smothered under mortgages, The Alary
land fanners are net worseefl'tlmn these
of many ether states, aud even In fertile
and wealthy old Lancaster county the
Increasing numlier of farm mortgages
suggests that.in spite of Jubilant States
man Landls, the high tarlirhns net been
working smoothly as n magical producer
of wealth and happiness among the
fanners.
Hut supposing the farmers would coin cein
bine, su pjkimj that every trade, busi
ness and industry, from agrlcultuie te
art culture, could lie organized in tru-ts
or combinations, and the whole work of
nen were directed by executive coun
cils aud beards of directors : The next
thing Mould be a grand unlveisal strike,
tdiutde'vu or tie up, or eU theHccdy
creation of a central lieard te settlu dif
ferences. Then every man would lie
forced te submit te the decree of this
distant aud almighty council. Net only
Ids Mages, but the cost of all he lieught,
would be fixed without the consent of
buyer or idler. The natural result of
unchecked combination wouldlienmeiu
fearful tyranny thuu ICastcrn despot
ever dreamed of. Hut this is fortunately
u long way oil", even at the jirtciit rate
of drifting. Meanwhile let iu note the
drift of thought among the farmers.
They are beginning at lut te realise thai
something Is wrong in this mislel hlgb
tax country. That 1 n gratifying symp
tom. They must U-gln te think out a
cause nnd Jeinedy, and the elled of
tariff ubiiics cannot fail te Ut noted. It
is a little hard, perhaps, fur the farmer
te realise the importance of a feicigu
commerce, but It should net take him
long te see that when our surplus grain,
ueld In Kurepe, has te be paid for iu
merchandize that is heavily taxed en
landing In America, It is net probable
that he Mill get high pi lees for wheat.
"When this notion strikes hhu, the far
mer Mill get te work with his little bal bal
eot, and we hope that the bright Idea
will take shajw la-fort the trusts have
taken command of the whole earth.

The lait sentence mutt make It verv
pbUti te the JiiigUnu that If they are te
have peace In the Beiidan they must
deal n crushing blew that will long be
rememlercd its nn evidence of their
power. " llemcnibcr Illcksnnd Gorden"
is a phrase that reminds us that the
Arabs like ether men prefer te forget
defeats. They leek iijieii what the
Knglish call "Welselcy's splendid
campaign " ns an Invasion well
repulsed, They de net cure whether
the Knglish could have marched
en after the fall of Khartoum
nnd eenqured the Mulidl. It Is enough
for their prldethat the Knglish celiiuiiii
retreated, and as General Orenfell i-.-lertsthat
these dervishes are well f-i
nnd In goeil condition in spite of their
recent suffering by thirst it Is ijuKa
probable that they will continue te tight
us desjierulely as Iho followers of the
Mahdi. There is something magulflcuiit
about the Ignorance of these Kastern
fanatics nnd their lendcra. Here Is
)Kr little Xad-el-Juml, with his
few thousand Arulis, starting out
te cempter the world with the
sublime declaration that a superior
force Is nothing te him. Christians talk
about mountain moving faith, but east
ern fanatics make a lavish display of It,
and though generation after generation
sutlers lit consequence, the crop of reck
less fanntlcs Is always ready te fellow
the prophet of the day te death, if net
te victory. It Is u pity that Kl
.Itinil cannot Is? jiersuaded te accept

that he has started out te conquer, lie
might lie a trifle discouraged by an
autumn review of the German and
French armies, or even by n few. days
walk among the teeming millions of
Londen. He M'euld, perhaps, conclude
te let than teem, and would find his con
quering mission limited te the part of
the Nile that none but A ruin care for.

TRUSTS AND MONOPOLIES.
Frem thn fourth rmper of Win. U Wll'en In

The success of " the .Standard Oil trust,"
whose gencral stnidure I attempted te
initkn plain lit my Inst paper, xvas n mnr mnr
xclleus tribute te Us designers. It xvns
cnpltallml In IB-flat $70,oen,ooo, for xxhlch

xxhlch less than fo.OOe.tiOo, represeuteil

absorbed Inte Iho "trust," and nil tlie res! res!
due stock dividends. In addition te tlie
dividends It had nld regular quarterly
dividends lit money, averaging 7i ter
cent, yearly, and reaching 10 per cent, in
recent years. Tlie trust ccrtlllcntes, Imi
glniilng bel exv par, had geno up te $10.i.
Tims, Iu less thnn six years, a capital of
seventy million dollars, nt most seventy
six millions, with a less innrket value, had
grown ten capital of ninety millions, with
a market value of ene hundred mid fifty
millions, having meantime paid regular
nnd liberal dividends. In n word the trust
selicme lit itself, by xrhnt it had done, ami
by what it sectupd able te de, had doubled
the x-nlue of Iho property of the combina
tion, although the Increasing production of
the Itusslan oil lipids wns causing serious
competition In foreign markets. These facts,
x hlch sound like lCastern fables rather than
a chapter from our recent commercial
history, xvlll prepare us fur tlie spread of
the new Invention ns seen as Its nntnre
could bedlscexx'red nnd its pesslhht elfis'ts
tindorsteisl, The next great combination
xxas "tlie cottonseed oil trust," formed
by the stockholders of mom thnn sex-cnly
corporations, ejieratlng In fourteen states.
Heme of the Stiiuilnrd oil malingers
appear In this trust also.
The nx-ernge consumption of sugar In the
United .Stales is llfty pounds per capita,
requiring nearly nun-third of tlie product
of the world. Of this vast amount we
produce, chiefly In JOUlslann, a varlnhln
traction, averaging about one-tenth, anil
luiKirt the residue In the form of raw
sugars, which are roll ned In this country,
our tnrlll' ilutles being prohibitory en the
refined grades. When therefore (t heeninn
known that a large majority of American
rellners had formed a "sugnr trust," and
its oternlieu xvns brought sharply home te
every household by nu luuuisiliite and
consequent rlse In the prlee of an niiiele of
universal consumption, public, feeling was
nt ence excited te the point wheie legisla
tures nnd courts xvere invoked te uncover,
mid If possible te suppress this new form
of secret combination.
The .Standard oil trust wns simply n new

already existing combination.

The sugar trust xvas the adoption of that
organization for the purpose of forming a
combination out of hlthiMte independent
and competing couiiniiies. The deed
under which the sugar trust xvns orgaiiled
iu (X'tebur. 1887, provided that nil parties
te It, net already corporations, should first
become such, and that all the sliaius of
stock lu nil the corporations should he
transferred te tint beard of trustees, eleven
In number, designated as "the Sugar lie lie
lluerles company, " In lien or which stock
ccrtlllcntes dreliirlng Hint the bolder wns
entitled te se many "shares of the Sugar
Itelluerle's company" were te be ills
trihiiled. The amount of tliese certlflcntes was net

lotted le each corjterallon xvasle ltonscer ltenscer

shares allotted fifteen nor cent, xvcre te be

eT which lu turn they declare mid pay

xvhose refineries have a capacltx of 8,(kki
barrels, or nearly two mid n-hu'lf million

Tliese sixteen refineries first forming
thetrust produce two-thirds of the refined
sugar of this country. Among the declared
objects of the deed were te communicate te

The trustees denied, with much emphasis,
any attempt or purpose te control pioduo pieduo piodue

not be explained lu any oilier wux. Here
wero sixteen ofthe lurgest icllnerfcs lu the

Let us see what an additional half cunt u
pound meant. We consume annually
about tluce thousand million pounds of
sugar. Of this quantity the rcliueiles in
the trust produce, neuily, If net qulte two
thirds, the ether third being produced by
outside tcflnerles, the sugar houses of
Louisiana mid a few itulmiMrtunt molasses
houses. An lucicaseef half cent a pound
en two-thirds of our consumption, te wit,
en two thousand million pounds, would
give an added prellt often million dollars,
w hlch Is twenty per cent, en the ccitlllcate
capital of the sugar trust.
The quotations in New Yerk for .June CO

selected, w hlch nre standard grades for
