Only fools iiilvocatu competition. lhe competitive Hyxtein of industry wad weli enough yours iijjo, hut tlio world Juih t.rorosw I l.eyoii'l it. Tin- intro duction of machinery doomed the con. petitive hVHU ni. J he only way to sine it is to destroy all iiiacliinei v and net hack the hands on th ' clock of progress No great industry is now conducted on competitive lineH. It ia impossible. ileneo trusts are formed. Kail road cannot compete ; hence poola are formed. A few weeks aeo the supreme court decided UKaiiist the legality of pools The grout pnpers luivo been lull of the subject. 1 heir pages have teemeil with editorials denouncing the supreme court. From hundreds of clippings the follow ing lias been selected. It in from the New York Journal of Commerce, the ublest capitalistic paper in the country, and it thus sounds the keynote: There id no aggregate of invested -capital in this country that on the average yields less than that represent ed by the stock and bonds of our rail road systems. A condition of cut-throat competition cannot be established be tween these without wiping out most of what is left of railroad profit and entailing a legacy of widespread finan cial distress. A few lurge shippers might grow richer in the general scramble among the railroads for business, but the great body of con sumers would reap no benefit; from it, and some of the most important branches of our commerce would bo subjected to new risks and uncertainties. There can be no genera prosperity in presence of conditions productive of railroad bank ruptcy. AVIiy, of course. Some of us know that and wrote about it years and years ago. But there is a way out of it ,for the present, and the Chattanooga Times ex plains how it can bo done, as follows: "Is it within the bounds of reason that the owners of 12.000,U00,U0 1 worth of railway property will sit still while their investment inelta away? Of course it is not. They are going to save the money they have invested if they can, anil the means that has been found most eliectivo in steadying net earnings is combination, under corporate owner ship, of great groups of roads that per vade ami virtuahy must, when wielded by a single head, monopolize the busi ness of largo sections of the country. If the people like this prospect bet er than they do the present condition they are in a lair way of getting what they better like. A lew more turns of the screw by the legislature and courts and we shall have our whole mileage of of 181,00 miles of lino in the hands of four to six vast incorporated combina tions. Tlio combinations will have proper arrangements for exchange of business, etc., us the roads now have, and the coining corporate association will have learned enough in the school of experience to evade any laws now on the books made to enable politit inns to meddle with them and help lawyers to pluck them." See how easy it is. Combine, com bine, combine. And finally there will bo one system, and only one. Who will own it? The United States of America will own it, and it will not be run for profit. It will servo the people as the postollice now serves the people. It will .be scientific, progiessivo and splendid beyond anything yet accomplished by man, and all the fools on earth cannot . stop it. The men who rail at trusts, the men who howl about department stores, the men who lament the displacement of abor by machinery are wasting their breuth. Competition will die in child-birth, but the balm will live and it shall be named co-ojiera'ion. A POOR FA Itil. The different propositions for the sale of lands t the comity for a county poor farm will probably come up before the county court at June session, anil as many seoin to think it is a good financial move for the county a farm may be bought at that time from the list pre sented at a former meeting, A good improved farm can be bought for about what it costs to keep the Clackamas county paupers f ir one year. If a farm was owned by the county there would be a falling off in the number of paupers on the list as at pre sent tnero are cjuitu a few now who re ceive support from the the county that would not go on a poor farm. The cost of running should not he very great as all the labor outside of overseer or manager could bo furnished by the paupers themselves and a good well tilled farm rlnml I furnish all food pro- durts for the indigent mi l at very little expense after first cost of land and improvements. Tun wonderful increase in the produc tive power of laborers in factories is illus trated by some recent German statistics which show that the textile industries used 8,2.'10,23U double hundred weights of raw material in 18U(I, as compared with 4,178,320 double hundred weights in 1882, the number of working people in these industries being 1 ,017,1 1 J in 18'.)(l and 0:i:',51)J in 1882. With un in- crcio of only U per cent in the laboring lore.es the factories more than doubled the production in fourteen years. Tiik Riddle Mitu says: "We wish some of our free silver exchanges would give us a reasonable idea of what they think would he the condition of affairs at present had Win. J.liryan been elect ed president and free silver senators and representatives instead dT republicans?" We would ask the Mite to tell the peo pie if the condition of affairs is wdiat it was pictured it would bo if McKinley was elected.

A iikpuhi.ican reader of the Ooukikk at Sandy returns a copy of paper with an article marked "a verry Bad Uehash." It is needles to say that the article had reference to the unfulfilled promise of prosperity by the republican party. AVitii this issue the Ooi iukk enters the 15th year of its existence under most favorablecircumstances. We venture ts say that it will disseminate JefTcrsonian democracy for another 15 years. Ex-Skn atob Oorbett figuratively comes daily knocking at the somite door and inquiring why hiscredontialsof appoint ment ,rom 11,0 Koveor of Oregon are not good enough to let him in on. How over, the objection to this prevails, that of delay to the tariff bill, for if the re publicans should once enter upon the attempt to seat the Oregon senator it would be good-bye to any consideration of the tariff bill at this session.
