77E iVEr TRUST IDEA. In the oil days when attorney general, frderal rrr-fecutor?. pvpulbt and dpma.?o?ues indulged in the occupation of trust-busting and trut baiting, the people who hated trusts were largely the con'unT? who believed that they were being" robbed by organized capital. Nfr.v comes the new trust and the spokesmen for finance are shuddering In fear that the new article will bring socialism and government ownership of Industry. In tho halcyon days of trust formation, the procosa wa always the .am? and had for It; purpose tho crtwhln? of competition. The leaders In any line of business, such as oil or rteel. l-ought In their larger competitors, forced the smaller ones out of bulne and then proceeded to collect dividends on a lot of watered stock which was always Issued to the men who formed the combine. The dividends were possible through the savings in 'management and very often, through a control of the price of both raw materials and of the completed article. They paid what they pleased and charged what they wished, which created a very pleasant condition for the owners of the trusl and so unhappy a on for the public that those who promised to unscramble trusrtii were generally elevated to Important political Jobs. The new Idea Is different. The new trust does not combine similar plants but it docs combine plants and industries that have anything to do with the manufactured article from the raw material to the completed product. The mo.t recent combination of this sort hau been effected by the Anaconda, probably tho largest copper minlnsr and tine producing: company In tho world. This company produce each year about 300,000,000 pounds of co-pper and a third that amount of zinc. It controls, largely, the prices of these products. Its biggest customer was the American Brass company, which needs for its completed articles, 350,000,000 pounda of copper and the hundred million pounds- of zinc which the Anaconda produces. Py a manipulation of finance, the Anaconda buys the brafcs company and now takes for itself all tho profits made in turning the raw metals into brass, and put Itself into a very happy position as far as getting the full value of its raw materials. Henry Ford worked much the same, plan when he bought coal mine In Ohio to run his Michigan factories and then took over the railroad that carried the coal to the factory. The new trust is based upon the idea of owning everything necessary to the production of the trust article of commerce. It is aimed at cutting out the middle profits, the Jobbers and commissions on purchase, the waste that Is Inherent In any business that pays for something that does not show up In the final article for sale. Dangerou? Ask the financial Journals In Wall st., and they will tell you that It Is tho most terrible crime against business stability perpetrated since Dryan suggested Mlver dollars. They point out that this is making it very easy for the government to take over industries, and. besides, 1ä shifting business practices to the point where cooperative societies of consumers may take notice and wonder why the final reduction of waste be rot made and the men who use tho goods own all the processor 0f manufacture and distribution. Thes financial Journals are pointing out that the farmer.? of the country are getting wise and ara working fast through their organizations that now sell products direct. They point to the danger of organizing Industries so completely agalnnt waste motion that it will be eajy for the cooperator to understand the methods. In the meantime, let it be hoped that the men who have worked out a new truat that eliminates waste effort will not be too greedy with uch savings as they may make but pass a part of their added profits to the consuming public. There will be no clamor 'against thee new trusts if they deal fairly with the people. There will bo one real how! if they try to do what the old competition-destroying combines did 20 years ago. In the meantime, the people can afford at least one smile when tru.?t-f ormers are accuin their pals of hurrying along socialism. That IS funny.

NOIV THEN, VEGETARIANS. Gen. Wood, almost a president and now governor of the Phillip Ines, his asked that group of his constituents known ad Igorrctes to please quit eating dogs and educate their appetites up to sheep or goat. The reason lie giveji Ls interesting. It Is not that he is trying to ?ive man's "most faithful friend" from slaughter, not that dog flesh is responsible for any deterioration of morale, not that it Inspires savagery or Injritcs riots, but that the custom is offensive to foreigners who happen to wander Into their camps. It might be interesting to trace back into the dim days of dawning civilization for a reason as to why dogs were not a common article of civilized feed. a.s is beef or mutton. It is quite probable that the answer would be found in the fact that In that day the dog was more ueeful for other purposrt than as food and that the appetites of man were directed and trained towards food that was easier to obtain and from animals that could not be put to some other domestic us-. There are great schools of modern thought which deny that flesh of any sort Is necefary to sustain, human life and these may now quite properly fugpest to the guardian of thee eavage tribes that he

go the entire limit and stop the fating

any

flesh. They will call attention to the luscious banana, the orange, the bread fruit, the yam. quite near at hand, as full of nutriment, even for an Igorrote. Changing habits to please "foreigners" has never been a very successful plea to any people, unless it b a slave race under compulsion of force. People do not change their customs because they offend a delicacy of tae-te of those who may wander in Upen tbera.

Th-ere may be merchants who don't advertise, but you never hear of them. o J'ven an optimi.-t can't see much fun in missing a street car.

They char,- r.Ay wirb the light cf reason and through fomt appeal to the f 1 5 h instinct of betterment. There is a humorous r! I in th news. item. Ton can Imagine- the? hilf clad Igorrote.", who a deren ycar.s ago were exhibited In this country" as curiosities because f their nearness to barbarism, earir g a lot whit a buruh of Cook tourists think about what thy eat or the way they eat. Can you imagine some grizzbd headed savage, lately discharged from the rank of human head hunters, denying his ftomich because 50me damty miss from Iloston hatea to sec him make a meal of Fido? Gen, "Wood has a record for notable service. He did wonderful work lri making Cuba sanitary but he did it by showing Cubana that they would live longer and euffer 1of In cleanliness than In filth. It will be Interesting to watch the effect of his appeal to tho leliracy of a savage upon the fixed habits of centuries. o THE REAL HOPE OF GERMANY. Some hundred thousand and more men and women of Germany have signed a birthday message to William Hohenzollern, pledging him their eternal loyalty and prophesying a day when ho may return in all his glory to the Imperial throne and again rule Prussia, at leaM. Inasmuch as about nlne-tent)s of the message Is given over to a glowing tribute to the late kalserln. It may bo suspected that there I a subtle purposeon the part of the old Junker caste to prevent tho rumored marriage of the ex-kaiser to a young widow who hang3 about his place of exile. Quite probably there will come from France an alarming appeal for a guarantee of her Integrity against an attack by these old men and old women who cannot yet believe that tho world's greatest madman is anything else than a god. The message means nothing except that a very mall handful, who will soon die of old age. do not accept the edicts of fate and will so on to the very end dreaming and hoping for a return to a day that was doomed from the moment it wm lighted by the belief that war can win anything. For the future of Germany the answer must be found In the youth of Germany and in the thoughts of those who will live there for the next half-cen-tury the young mn and women who were still In school when the armistice was signed and who have in their hearts none of the despair of defeated soldiers or the hatred of the conquered or bereaved. Just as. a hint of what the youth of Germany has back in its mind, the report of Bruno Iaker In the Survey Grap-hic for this month la suggestive and illuminating. Mr. Lasker discovt s that the youth of Germany is organizing against all restraints and is forming Into a compact mass to work out the- destinies of the new Germany. "The youth movement of Germany today," MT. Lasker continue?, "or tho different movements which, seen from afar, feem one, sweep the greater part of the educated young people under 25 years of age and a very large section of the young organized workers Into a singlo spiritual stream. It is the largest element iu what, the country" has retained of vigor and of promlso for aiappier future. It Is the insurgence of a strong race against the hampering restrictions Imposed upon its natural development by militarism, church, school and modern Industry. It is an, insurgence directed In its present stage against the most Immediate oppressors the men who made and defended the war, who hold the civil power, exercise authority in church, workshop, school and council room. It is. In short, an insurgence against age." That is his picture of a clasa much more Import

ant than those who are sending verbal tributes to the living grave of a deposed emperor. What, will this youth do? Will It overthrow tho entire social order and relj upon force to demand Its own ideas of freedom? Will it declare ltielf guiltless of the wrongs of the age that preceded it and refuse to pay? ' Will it deny that the eins of the father shall be visited upon the children and demand a new place In the world and freedom from handicaps? Or will it be held in check by a reverence of established Institutions? The only hint given of the direction this new force of Youth is takln? is that they carry guitars and fin songs. That does not sound like war, rebellion or bloody tyranny. o A PECK OF TROUBLE. Huge Uarens is In court, charged with baking and celling small white loaves of bread und"er weight. The chief of police appears against him. He demands that Barens bo lined 150 guilders and not allowed to eell bread for a year and six weeks. 'Fine of 25 guilders and costs!" droned the magistrate. This trial took place 300 years ago in old Xew York, then known as Now Amsterdam, with a population of about COO. iome of those old New Amsterdam trials make ua wonder if, after all. our troubles are much different from thoee of our ancestors. .For Instance: The schout, or chief of police, arrested Dirk Janzne. Dirk's offense, it developed in court, was sassing the schout and grading him beyond endurance with abuse. "A fine of 500 guilders and cost, or put him on bread and water for fix weeks!" the tchout urged. The Judge cut the fine to 5-0 guilders. Dirk appealed the cafe and, under his lawyer's wing, "Rays the devil shall take him who first attempts to arrest him." Francois De Bruyn hated the tax collector and fcubpoena server . He landed in court for striking and insulting the court messenger and the fiscal. De Sille. A scjuad of soldiers had to be called to get Francois into court. The mag:sf;ate fined him 200 guilders. "Defendant aws he will rot in prison first." Apparently he was a man of Influence, probably the friend of a ward-heeler, for the magistrate ruled, "He shall be imprisoned in a respectable tavern." The New Amst?rdam court records of C00 years ' ago refer to the cao of Hendrick Jansen Clearbout Vanter Goe. 'charged with speaking words involving capital punishment." The'records do not disclose the nature of Hendrtek's utterances that made him liable to the death penalty. Probably the Involved treason to the government, for eld New Amsterdam waa about the toughest town in the world and nearly anything went. IlendrJck. found guilty, was let off with a whipping, branding and banishment for life. The printing press was introduced to America about SO years later, and with it came the battle for free rivech.
