Jxught out after the patriotic but im pulsive anti-trust reople have Invested IttieraKy in the stock, is certainly jsunusisr to those who havo watched fche current of events since the- trust t pmd comblaatlon business became the .trogue. Of course there are- shysters $rho will chout In megaphone columns pt the evCs of trusts and the- necessity kor their destruction and will take for Krranted that the recent employment of kh lawyers of the American Bar As portation indicates that these evil, of (themselves or their e1l doings, are to fc at or.ee and with one loud blst fslown away. But a careful analysis of the propositions which rslsed the ire 'fot the tni"?t contingent of the assocla- illon will Csclose r.o feasible plan of one enterprise, whether or not. shall buy out or become in terested In another enterprise of like character; that manufacturers, for In stance, shall no sell their products to foreigners or In foreign markets at a less prL-fc than they sell the same pro ducts In like quantities to home people; that products of a monopoly shall not be sold in one State for less than the same products are sold in another State, taking the difference in cost of transportation into consideration; and make the penalty for the violation of any of these provisions not only severe, but applicable to the party or parties who sell out to a corporation or trust in the same line of business with him self or themselves. Of course this would limit or destroy the Tlrht of the Individual to sell that which belongs to him or buy that which he wants and is able to'pay for. but the Individual must not be permitted to stand 1n the way of the general wel fare, and the "zeneral welfare" clause of the constitution can be" made to cover, as it has covered, a multitude of sins. It also mlsht curtail litigation and the opportunities for such veryj rreatlv. And then It miflrht not. If so it suotild promise to do, we need expect no "disorderly" efforts on the part of the lawyers to thus subordinate the individual rlsats. or what have heretofore been Judicially and by cus tom determined Individual rights of the pecple to the penoral welfare of the public. Th subjects of the disorder ly" discussion are far more promising of litigation and of matter for Crinff the popular heart, which, while doing: much damage to general business, will also help lift some shyster Into office or to n. contingent fee. "The people love o be humbugged," said the late Mr, "iUrnum. and no Held yet developed offer such superb opportunities for humbugging them, at tha same time provide Increased chances for contin gent fees. as the wild-cat schemes for regulating business combinations or corporations which their authors know cannot b enforced for their very ab surd as well as Illegal provisions. Th pot will boil over next year all nlong the lines which created disorder among the lawyers :he other fliy, the people will boil along with it; but all that their proposed schemes could or would do if enacted into law would be to stagnate business, cause money to seek shelter and the price of pro ducts of the farmers and of labor to diop and drop heavily. Now Fe if we are not a rropher. when looking upon this section of ours. And old Mother Earth Is Just hump ing herself In her line this year. No place on the globe like the South for all who work and behave themselves. It was exceedingly kind In the seve ral European powers to tell Uncle Sam so promptly there was no law which could Interfere with his regulating the Turk in any manner he might think fit, only the more vigorous the regula tion the more In accordance with their wishes. No one of the Pow ers can reach out for the Turk's tail feathers without falling over the oiit ptrotohed arm of another power or other Powers. But all want the troublesome bird plucked, and as Uncle Sam could do the plucking without ulterior or sinister motives all the powers con certed promptly in sicking him on This is a great world. How do we love for other folk to pull our chestnuts out of the fire. The man who "murdered" our vice consul at Beirut was not a Turk at all hut a rlrk in the minister's office at Constantinople, who failed to Interpret the cicher dlsDatch correctly. The hose ought to be turned on him promptly. His "error" cost the government, in telegraph tolls and movement of ships thousands of dollars, we have no doubt. And It Involves entanglement with a "friendly nation," also. A manufacturer in Providence is now building a machine or loom that will produce two webs of cloth at the same time. We take it the labor now requir ed to manage the one-web loom will as easily manage the two-web loom. This machinery not only lightens labor, but lessens the number of laborers. Hence a vast deal of the cause of the conflict between labor and capital. Read the extract copied elsewhere from the Wilson Times wherein Mr. Paul C.

Of this amount the national banks hold JlSG.Hi5.lll, lent them by the govern ment without a cent of Interest." The government, under existing laws of Congress, has collected this money from the people.

Why should not Wilson become the centre of such a business? I cer tainly can't see any reason why it should not. I shall give my experience as a truck er, hoping it may encourage others to go Into the same sort of business here. I came to Wilson to live about the last of September, 1902. I rented two acres of land on the outskirts of the town, of which I did not get possession until the cotton picking was finished, about December 1st. I then planted one acre in lettuce, finishing the planting about the 31st of the same month. This acre of lettuce brought me in over and above expenses and commissions, $1,350. After the lettuce was sold I planted this acre and one-fifth of an acre be sides in cantaloupes. I have Just finish ed selling this crop, which brought in, above expenses and commissions, $416. I also raised four-fifths of an acre of tomatoes, which sold for $284, the three crops from two acres footed up $2,050. - I am now manuring and preparing the same two acres for a fall crop of lettuce to be sold in November and December.

WHITE HAIR WILL BRING $100 AN OUNCE - (New York Sun.) The police reported last week the ar rest of two young thieves who -were accused of stealing 300 pounds of hu man hair from a dealer. 'There is probably some mistake about the case," remarked another dealer. "If the hair they stole was only average quality American hair, and they had 300 pounds of it, its value was in the neighborhood of $50,000. If it was fine imported hair, "its value could easily have been $250,000." Hair is the most expensive commod ity on the market, short of radium and diamonds. It costs more than its weight in gold. Some hair costs $100 an ounce. That is $1,600 a pound. If the youthful sneak thieves had made way with hair of this quality, their swag would have been in the neigh borhood of $480,000. ' "But this expensive hair necessarily exists In very small quantities. That is why it is so rare and so expensive. 'This particular hair which costs one hundred dollars an ounce is the pure white hair, uncolor ed by age, cut from the head of a liv ing person, and measuring at least thirty inches. Shorter hair of the purest white commands a high price, but in order to the record value the lenghth must be at least thirty inches. "And in all of the United States there Is probably not a pound and a half of this perfect white hair for sale. Many aged people have it, but those who do will not sell. "Elderly people who have long white hair should not be tempted to cut it off in the hope of getting $100 an ounce for it without first having an expert examine it. If it is tinsred with yellow Its value is reduced to almost nothing. We can get plenty of long white hair tinged with yellow, but the pure white is extremely rare and very expensive. "A wig made for the wife of a Chi cago bank president by me two years ago of this pure white hair, cost the lady $1,200. And it took me nearly a year to collect the hair from all over the country. I used about five ounces In the wig. "I should say that hair on a young girl's head, if about thirty inches long and of fair quality, would bring the owner from $5 to $10. according to length and thickness. But an Ameri can girl who sells her hair for this tri fling sum is acting very foolishly. Of course, if Bhe is only 14 or 15 it will grow long again, and cutting the hair does improve the growth, but I never advise any American girl to part with her hair. "The most expensive shade, next to the White hair I havp mpntlnnpfl t what Is known as ash blonde. It Is a mouse-colored hair, very rare not the pale peroxide blonde produced by arti ficial means, but th natural rl blonde. Hair of this kind is easily worth $50 an ounce, but very few peo ple have it. . The cheapest kind of ha!r is black Chinese hair, cut from the queues of Chinamen. You can buy this hair for $8 a pound. It is used only for stage purposes, in making what we call Mi kado wips. For a long time I was puzzled by orders "from the middle west, accom panied by photographs of elderly men. was requested to make up wigs and beards so that they were exact copies! of the particular style of hairdressing shown in the photograph. "I found out afterwards that the or ders came from a clever hair fakir who posed as a spiritualistic medium. The photos he sent me were pictures of prominent dead citizens in small west ern towns, He had a. confederate who visited these towns a month or more in advance of the fakir. This conreaeraie collected photos of prominent dead cit izens. Theses Avere sent on to me and t mnr? tb wlers and beard required. They were delivered to the fakirs and a t the nroner time during a seance an exact reproduction of the dear depart ed would appear as an apparition from the cabinet. - A confederate cleverly made-up posed as the spirit." 6IVE US ME (By the Bishop of Exeter.

It may be, lacking meaning; At pianos idly thumping Tender maidens also played it Till the atmosphere resounded With the strains of Hiawatha.
