A THE Supreme Court of Michigan, says the Irdianapolis Journal, has recently made 6 decision which is claimed to be the pioneer in condemnation of unlawful combinations to make prices. Michaels, a manufacturer of machines fer making hoops, required a certain kind of knife, which he had bought of a Buffalo firm. Subsequently one Lovejoy called upon Michaels and said that he could make him a better knife for the same money. No agreement was made. But subsequently Michaels sent Lovejoy an order for two knives which were delivered, but the price was $29,15 in excess of the price paid the Buffalo firm. Lovejoy explained the increase in price on the ground that between the date of his offer to sell at the Buffalo pince and that of receiving the order the price of knives .had been raised by the Machine knife-makers' Association, of which Lovejoy was a member. Michael refusal to pay led to a suit, which Li time was appealed to the Supreme Court, when Judge McGrath rendered a decision in which the court laid down the law as follows:

"In the present case no price was agreed upon at the time the order was given, and there was no evi dence to show that defendaut had any knowledge of the price fixed by the Knife-makers' Trust, An attempt is made to fasten a price fixed by a combination on such a purchas er. It is sufficient to know that the price sought to be imposed is that fixed by the combination. If so, it was unlawfully fixed, and has no forco as a market price for that reason. It is the combination for the purpose of controlling prices that is unlawful, and the fact that they, the manufacturers, deem the price fixed to be reasonable does not purge it o' any unlawful character, independently of the unlawful character of the combination fixing it, a price so fixed cannot be regarded as any better evidence of value than that fixed by any vender upon his own waree. A price so fixed is not to be on titled rank as the market pried. It is a market pricci within the conttggMl ff

Dispatches from Rio de Janeiro on the 24th bring the intelligence tta^fc jthe opposition to Dictator Fonseca has gathered suificient force to break through the bar* riers erected by the government to hold It in check, and to make itself master of the situation. No details have yet been received as to the precise methods adopted. All that is known is that the uprising was so formidable that Fonseca considered it impossible longer to maintain his ascendancy and has surrendered his authority. In retiring, or resigning, as he called it. he declared that he did so in favor of Floriano Peixotto, the VicePresident or Vice-Chief of the provisional government of which Fonseca was the head. Whether the opposition will be content to allow Peixotto, about whom little is known there, to assume the leadership of State, is not known. It is nob to be believed that he will be permitted to act as chief executive, even temporarily, unless he is in sympathy with the ideas and principles of the leaders of to-day's revolutionary movement.

Rio de Janeiro is in a state of great excitement, but no reports have come as yet indicating mob law or serious disorder. The uprising, however, had the effect of putting a stop for the time being to all kinds of busiucss The exchanges are closed, and everybody is so interested in watching political developments that no thought is given to commercial pursuits or business elements. The news that Fonseca has resigned spread through the city like wildfire. Everywhere it was received with enthusiastic cheers and exclamations of satisfaction. The provinces have not yet been heard from, but it is believed, from the advices hitherto received in regard to the growing opposition throughout the country to Fonseca's su premacy, that the news of his downfall will everywhere be received with th© same satisfaction as at the capital. The revolution at Rio de Janeiro only broke! out this morning, and its work was quickly accomplished. I

Breed Only the Best.

Every American farmer should have enterprise enough to rise above the cheap service fees and raise the best class of horses. Only the best horses can be raised from the best stallions. The best imported stallions cost from IL500 to $5,000 and must get a higher service fee than the scrub or grade that cost $100 to $500 and the benefits in the increased value of the colts pays a larger profit than any other investment on the farm.

English and Scotch farmers are eagerly hiring the best Clyde and Shire stallions at $25 to $50 a service fee. The draft horse is increasing the pros* perity of the farmers of Europe.

If America is to lead the world, our farmer must rise to the importance of the occassion and breed to the best sires available and encourage the introduction of more good imported stallions into every neighborhood. The markets at home and abroad want more good heavy draft horses, and pay the high test price for them. Such, then, it will pay to raise. Increased 6ize all along the line is the order of the day, Let us improve the opportunity increase the size of our horses to the modern requirements in the city and on the farm. Farmers cannot make this universal improvement by crying "hard times In many localities. fortunately, they rise above that poverty stricken, cheap service idea, and sustain the best imported sires, keep it 11 their grade mares for breed-, ing, and are thousands of dollars ahead of those farmers who have not kept up with the draft horse progress.
