Simply from tho fact that Btalutics show that tho 'nogro mco i dying out, and tho several cauaoj for this would mnko interesting reading were I at liberty to givo them out, but this 1 cannot do at this time. Tho negro raco is not growing healthier, wcalthior, wiser or anything olso which goca to mako lifo worth living.

HILL, President of the Great Northern Railroad te . i MAm&$&y Tlnfjuestionably tho struggle for wealth, aided by the com- ! monopolies. RESIDENT ROOSEVELT is all right, and his rem; , cdy for what aro called trusts is all right, assuming j that you want'to encourago what is good and pre vent what is bad. THERE ARE DIFFERENT , KINDS OF TRUSTS. SOME OF THEM ARE , FORMED FOR GOOD PURPOSES AND SERVE THE PUBLIC WELFARE, AND THE PRESIDENT AND MEMBERS OF CONGRESS AND OTHER 1NTEJ LIGENT PEOPLE OUGHT TO BE ABLE TO DISCRIM INATE BETWEEN HONEST AND DISHONEST CORPO RATIONS. Tako Ilcrr Krupp, tho groat Gorman ironmastor, who 1 died tho othor day, as an example. Ho was a very rich and powtJr-' ful and benevolent monopolist and made Germany richer and morff prosporous and his 45,000 employcos happy. Thcro aro. othor good ile:dlio of modem social lifo, makes posfiiblo evils which merit the sternest condemnation. Excesbivo capitalization of corpora tions, diahoi.cjt management by their executive officers, the dc ctruotion of tho rights of tho minority, the theft of public utili ties, tho subordination of public interests to private gain, tho de bauchery of our local legislatures and cxecutivo officers and tho corruption of tho elective franchiso havo resulted from the facil ity afforded by tho law of corporations to conccntrato the control of colowal wealth in tho hands of a few men. TODAY THE THOUGHTFUL PUBLICIST IS APPALLED BY THE FRAXKENSTErX OF HIS OWN CREATION, AND THE QUESTION PRESSES EVER MORE JMPORTUNELY FOR DECISION WHETHER THESE MARVELOUS AGGREGA TIONS OF CAPITAL CAN BE SUBORDINATED TO THE VERY LAWS WHICH CREATED THEM. In nothing created has Preoidcnt Roosevelt shown greater courago and resolution than in his resolute attempt to find a remedy for evils believed by many to bo irremediable. WHAT MUST HAPPEN TO VI FILIPINOS Cy JACOU COULD SCIIURMAN. President of Cornell University "pl RESIDENT ROOSEVELT has said that tho flag will stay $tm-3 in tho Philippines as long a3 it will stay in Alaska. That iiiiSy means forever. I HOPE OUR FLAG WILL 3TAY IN THOSE ISLANDS UNTIL ITS WORK THERE IS DONE. But if it ia to stay forever one of two things must happen WE SHALL ELTIIER HOLD THE FILIPINOS IN SUBJEC TION OR WE MUST ADMIT THE ISLAND OF LUZON AND THE VISCAYAN ISLANDS AS UNTIED STATES TERRITORIES. .
