Will the trusts kill themselves

which was raised ago in some
quarters, but cannot yet be answer-
ed with certainty, although there
are indications that many of these

swinish prototype, are catting their

It cannot have escaped the at-
of readers who have follow-

pretentious trusts are having the

seeking to impart confidence to

days trust stocks little dealt

until they reached their proper
level of actual values. This level
is to be very low indeed. The
stocks of certain the would-be

little higher estimation than Con-

their purpose in making fortunes
for their promoters, have
independent competition with
disastrous results, and have sagged

speculative value, and very little

When Roosevelt appoints a so-
called Democrat to office in the
South you may bet your bottom
dollar that he has already
his party, or that he opposes re-
of suffrage, or that
he will in the future advocate Re-

three things in mind and measure

White Only,
Mrs. Roosevelt has announced
that she will have white
in the White House. As
the White House service has been
from time the posses-
occupation of the colored
man, this will seem like an en-
encroachment on their and
privileges. The colored servants
have carried White House
fairs for so long that the change
will be a surprise to them, though
they will hardly turn Mr.
out on account of it. But if a
Northern Republican President
thus turns the colored brother out
of the White House, sends him
out bag and baggage, what be
comes of the love of our Northern
friends for the
Times.

gobs of truth when it says the class

Rumor is still rife concerning
the Isthmian Canal treaty, all
is conjecture. I it on no less

the treaty with Great have

treaty will be completed nub-

Congress assembles. Cabinet
Minister, who will not permit the

lief treaty will be perfect-
satisfactory to Senate
the people. He further that
everyone in the White House and
the State department has been
given notice that the President
will be seriously displeased if
details are made public by anyone
other than himself.
It is well understood in inner
circles that the President finds
in a serious dilemma in re-
to his recommendations to
Congress, concerning our relation
with Cuba. He appreciate
how essential to Cuban
good will and lo Cuban prosperity
is the admission to the United
States, free of duty, of
sugar. On the other band,
such would bring
about his head a swarm of
protests from the beet sugar
producers of the North and West
and from sugar producers
of the South, South in which
he has strong hopes of building up
a brand republican
