Many of our great corpora tion leaders are much disturbed and displeased at the recent activity of government ami suite officials. I'or ihls they can hardly he blamed, since tint a few state attacks aro Indiscrim inate and Ill-Judged. Nevertheless, an era of reform In corporation manage ment has already begun, the effect of which will ultimately he beneficial to stockholders and will do much to wards removing the political and so cial discontent which has been rising In n threatening degree for several years past. There Is the best of rea son for stating that tho 1-Vderal gov ernment has no "trust smashing" pol Icy In view. There has been much ex aggeration as to the Intentions of the government In this respect, and all that Is likely to be enforced so far a - can be atctirtulncd is a quiet bat firm Kiey of compelling the greatest cm porallons to obey the law equally with the humblest eitlns.

INJUSTICE TO THE MINISTRY. Thcro have been leeelitly several instances of lapses In moral i (induct and gross Improprieties mi the part of ministers of the gospel In different parts or the United States, and In some Instance their nets amounted to grave crimes. This Is, of course, greatly to bo de plored ftom every point of view, but Is especially regretlablo because It affords coffors and enemies of the church an opportunity I" use a few In stances as a text to nssnll preacher generally. I'vory time some man wearing the garb of ii clergyman, and Into whoso hands has been committed tlio high commission of a preacher of (he gos pel, falls before temptation and prov es unworthy of his high calling, many newspapers herald the fact abroad In flare lines and work It over In divers shapes us an enjoyable and nlmosl exhauslless news Item. Many news papers have a class of readers to whom such an Item Is a most delici ous morsel, and by reason of that fact human wenkness and sin are used as a menus to make money. It is the man who. though guilty. esuapus punishment whose ruse Is re membered and made the text to itfc sail the law and courts, while the hiindnils who, convicted, fill prison cells are out of sight ami forgotten. So when ope preacher goes wrong and falls from Ills high estate be and his misdeeds aro kept In tho public eye, while thousands and leu of thous ands of faithful, clean, zealous, (iod fearing preacher who humbly walk year In ami ear out In the paths of righteousness are not thought of. Consecration to the wink of a min ister never made u man any more than ii. man. No ceiemony or laving on of bauds ever metamorphosed a plain, common-place sou of Adam Into a saint, and preachers are altogether human, but of the vast number tho proportion who err and bring dis credit on tho holy piofesslou Is won derfully, grallflngly small. Most of (hem are poor; their work Is arduous; their temptations great; their burdens, heavy; but ninety-nine out of a hundred seep tho faith ami walk upilghtly before man and (lod. That now nnd then one or a few should provn weak and yield to the ii.niiitntloti and buffetlngs of the world Is not surprising, and to seek to bring reproach upon sill the rest, or to discredit them because of the sins of a few, Is rank Injustice. fl'lii proportion In no profession of those who prove unworthy Is ns small as It Is In the ministry, and tho world does not hold a nobler, more zealous, more uptight, cleaner, faith rnl sot of men than, taken as a whole, are the ministers of the gospel of the Tutted Stales. liiinestly, devotedly, unselfishly do they toll lo point out the way of eter nal life, ami they forget not that their mission Is to serve and If need be to suffer, and they are deserving pro found lospoot, and tho gentlest, ton d crest consideration. Man.v of them toll In obciiro places, ami seem not to bring In many sheav es, hut the measure of their service and tho extent of their reaping for the Muster will only be known tlio da of tho final harvesting. Houston Chronicle. The railroads west of the Missis sippi river have made a low rate for the Trans-.Mississippi Cotumercl.il Congress, llusluo.is men of the west Interested In the phenomenal growth of Oklanoma and Indian Territory will be enabled to observe the mar velous development that Is won every where In the new state under the best possible conditions. The Commercial Club at Muskogee will take care of everybody who attends the Commer cial Congress, which convenes In that city November 19.22. o-ro The tariff duty on pig lead Is two and one eight cents per pound. Con sumers of lead want an opportunity to buy In the world's open market; but are denied because the lead trusts ex erts Its Influence to prevent tho re moval of duty, which It uses as a lev er to keep tho piico up. Of course, the republicans will not remove t'. duty. That would hurt the trust ami help the public a policy which directly contravenes the doctrine of protec tionism. So It Is in all other cases of trust made goods. oo Speaker Cannon sas ho Is not a candidate for president, hut then you know Undo Joe Is sly devilish sly and perhaps does not euro to give "the 1io.vb" nn excuse for ousting hlui from the speakership.

After the stiertiicutar effect of fin ing (he .Standard Oil Trust nearly thir ty millions of dollars has subsided It may bo well to Investigate what ail vantage the public will gain even If the trust eventually has to pay tho full amount. John I). Rockefeller 's repor'ed to have subl that: "Judge l.anclls wilt bo dead a long while bo for this fltio Is paid. In fact things will happen before that." Hut sup pose the chief trust magnate Is not a good prophet ami In the course of a year the Circuit and Supreme Court decide that tho enormous flue is lo gal and mlist he paid. Where will the money coino from, but from the profits on oil, ntnl It Is not quite probable that a cent or two n gallon will be charged Ine public, so that the trusts stockholders can still ho paid their 10 per cent dividend. The object of trust busting Is to re produce competition which the trusts have nearly eliminated. Competition brings down the price of products to n natural level according to supply ami demand; while trusts through monopoly create an artificial price Philim trusts for receiving rebates, ns In the Standard Oil cases will not redure prices, but If our trust busting lepubllcan friends really mean bust tiPim they can when Congress meets verv iiiilckly produce competition in all trust products by abolishing the tariff duly which protects them. 1 he republican loaders have been con stnntly pointing out to those pot conversant with the tar iff law that all petroleum pro ducts are on the free list. That Ib true. Hut at the same time they know, or should know, that there Is a reciprocl- iv loiter In the tariff pack, which they all voted for. which effectually pro tects the Standard Oil trust from competition fiom abroad. This proviso which Is part of paragraph (.20 wlilcti iibu'i'H "netroleiini. crude or refined' on the free list, also stipulates that on petroleum or Us products "pro duced In any foielgu country" there shall bo collected, when bucIi goods are Imported a duly equal to the duty Imposed by such country. As llussla and other Important oil-producing countries levy duties on kerosene av eraging about lull per cent It follows that the Standard OH company Is one of our most highly protected trusts, The custom officials hold that the rates of duty to be assessed are not tluiM! levied by the country from which the refined products may be Imported, but those levied by the country which produces tin- petroleum Irom which (he Imported products wore made. That the trust Is enormously pro tected by this tariff provision Is evi dent from the dlfleiince In price as quoted In the New York Journal of Couimoice. August Mb. the export price In bulk being .1 cents a gallon, while the local price for tank wagon delivery was 111 cents a gallon. So un der this benellceut republican tantt the foreigner Is buying his kerosene at bargain prices, or about half what our trust ridden people are forced to pay through the collusion of the re publican loaders and the trust monop olists.

The Wounded Cenersl'i Heroic Brav ery In the Face of Death Cutter's Drilliant Charge at Seen by a Con federate Cavalryman. "The moit brilliant charge I ever tvlliicssoil was made by Custer at the battle of Yellow Tavern," said an old Confederate cavalryman. "It was near the beginning of what historians now call the llderm s campaign. "I was with Job Stuart, Oeuerul l'ltr. lyre's division. Wlckhum's bri gade and I'hll Sheridan's troops were hanging on in like a pack of hungry wolves, nipping ut ut every turn. "We left Hanover Junction alKitit 1 o'clock one night and reached Yellow Tavern ls-fore 10 o'clock the next morning. We hadn't more than halted lit the Tavern when up comes Sheridan and trtet to drive in out. It was n pretty tough struggle, a hand to hand tight, and we fell back from the Tav ern, but held our position on the tele graph road leading to Itlchmeuil.

I can loll you, nfter so many hours In the saddle, to .stretch out on the grutiud and take a smoke that Is, all who had anything to suiol.e. There was Just one pipeful among that whole battery, mill the boy who owned It passed It down the Hue, mid each man took Ids turn puff lug at It. When It was gone we nil began to speculate on what deviltry Sheridan would be up to next ami how Job Stuart would head him off. It wasn't long before some fellow wished for n drink of vvnlor. "You know how- It Is, When one mnn wishes for water the whole company begins to swear they ore dying of thirst. Jack Saunders and I took a bunch of canteens and started over the hill to a spring that he had een that morning. I was on my hands nnd knees over the spring when I heard Saiin dent' grunt of surprise. "There, only a few hundred yards i away, was a considerable Ixsly of cav 1 nlry.

"Tlio entire Hue moved forward at a quick walk, and as the otllcer wheeled Ills hon-o I saw his face. My (!od, It was Custer! Tho situation came to Saunders and me like a Ihish. Wo threw down the canteens nnd started back to the battery on a dead run. '"Trot!" Custer's voice raiw out again. Then he slnu'ed. 'Charge!' "With wild cheers, his cavalry dash ed forward In a swooning gallop, at tacking our entire loft wing at tho same time. We saw- our battery taken, our line broken nod our men running like sheep. Saunders and I had but one thiillghl-to Join our lleelng company. As wo reached the telegraph road above the din of the battle 1 heard Job Stuart's voice. There he was, making a stand with a hiiulfitl of men around him. "It seemed but a moment before Cus. tor's troops wore coming buck as fast as they had gone forward. They had met the ITrst Ylrglnlans. We greeted lliein with the rebel yell and the last charge In our weapons. Job Stuart cheered us on -nb. how lie cheered us!
