We aro standing npon tho verge of a great chango in out relations, which if our business men be wiso they will look it sqarely in the faco and prepare to avert it. A Yander bilt is among us and that means much under the surface. He walks with velvet soles sandals and 'inuni" is his talismanic motto in business. He says nothing and you scarce hear the tread of his soft velvet feet, but every step ho takes means a step in his business, power and prosperty. He is a giant of financo and nono but bis right hand knoweth what his eft hand is doing. But tho peo plo are gifted with an instinctive forccasto that confounds tbo wis dom cf tbo wise.

Trusts aro tho menace of our privalo interests and our public in stitutions. They aro the actapus of our progress, the whirlpool of our business. With tho power of suc tion of o Norway Mackstono they are sucking out our life-blood and mak- ng us abjoct suppliants at the foot stool of their power. They are the Augean stables of our body politic Thoy parylize our trade, degrade our manhood, and make us menials in the marts of trade. They suck out tho necessaries of life, and ab sorb all its channels of of supply. They must be subdued and controll ed or we have to contend with an evil as disastrous as war, pestilence i and famine. The President is with ui in his public declarations, altho it is be- ioved that tho trusts did more to place him in the Presidency tnan any other agency in politics. It is believed that Mark Hanna. the manager ol aicxumey, meu mo out pie of a poor and subjugated peep ed band and struck down or we are pie.
