In June, 1888, there was recorded, in London, "the largest amalgamation o1 business firms which has ever taken place." It was a combination of "18 coffin furniture makers in England, Scotland and Ireland." The capital was $2,000,000.

This combine did not succeed in burying the trust movement by any means. IN the last two calendar years, under the Dingley tariff, we boughl from Europe goods worth $725,000, 000. In the same two years we sold to Europe goods 1,940,000, 000. The balance of trade in our fevor was thus $1,215,000,000 from Europe alone. This is the sort of "entangling foreign alliance" thai is caused by the Eepublican policy of protection.

It is entangling to the other fellow. As a kicker, the Democratic party is a sciearning success. As a clog on the wheels of progress, it beats the air brake. As a promiser it out-promises the man who never pays his debts. But when it comes to keeping its pledges, the record i different.

THE public debt is decreasing at a rapid rate notwithstanding extra ordinary expenses for the Philippine trouble. During the last Democratic administration the public debt increased, in time of peace, in just about the same ratio that it now decreases. THE "trust" question has been taken up by the subcommittee of the house judiciary committee, and it recommends either a new antitrust law or a constitutional amendment that will give congress full power to deal with trusts. ONE of the most noticeable things in all the Republican state platforms this year is the hearty demand for the passage of the ship- ping'bill. which has been favorably reported to each branch of congress.

FKOM the way the Democrats seem to be worrying over the toir Btitution, it would appear that they have forgotten that there is a su preme court, whose chief duty it is to safeguard that sacred document. THE activity of the free trade enemies of the shipping bill, who are spurred on to oppose it by the foreign shipping interests, increases as the chances of its early passage grow more and more favorable. OREGON Republics are for expansion, the Nicaragua Canal, the open door in China, and, very naturally, for the gold standard as the basis on which oriental countries should pay for their goods. THE United States government is buying its Krnpp armor, made in the United States, cheaper than any Other country in the world. But, Of course, the Democrats are dissatisfied.

AN excess of $50,000,000 a month in exports over imports is a pretty good favorable trade balance to carry on our national ledger. PROGRESS prevents poverty--if yon do not go ahead, some one else will. THE next measure to be taken up for consideration in the senate is the Frye shipping bill. Its passage by a large majority seems assured whenever a vote can be reached. WHILE wage earners are on strike and receive no pay the salary of the labor leader and agitator continues.

REPUBLICAN gains have been notable, both in Kansas and Nebraska. This is encouraging. Real Est ate Transfers. Sarah Banm, 33 acres in Canoe, to Christ. E.
