The following is a clipping which will explain itself: HOW TRU8TS HAVK BAISED PR1CRU. "The first epen defense of trusta ha been made by Hanna in the Ohio campaign. And it has been answered by a protest from thous ands of the bent people- of the State. At a meeting in Cincinnati Sat urday night the traveling salesmen of the city adopted reaoiutions de nouncing Hannainm and trust. The dispatch says: Every wholesale fobbing house which sella to the city trade was represented bv one or more men. ur the total or 140 city salesmen, a large majority were present. In selling good to the retail stores of the city, local salesmen have had bitter occasion to rue the existence of trusts. .Those affecting the staple commodities, used every househould of necessity have caused prices to rise steadily for the past year. The work of the salesmen has therefore been made harder, while In no Instance have their salaries been Increased, pro portional to the extra work Involved, and the increased expense of main taining their families. The follow ing preamable and resolution were unanimously adopted: "Whereas, during the last eigh- tween months trust, have been formed without; number until today we find every article of household use controlled by irusts and combi nations; and. complained .to iiis , : msnopfl the churches east of the -Blue The bishop advised him m Ridge and a few beyond and Ihe keep quiet or he would get into trouble.
