BLAINE ON TRUSTS.
In a speech ut Portland, Me-, Aug.
yo Jlvcs.,c e.sl.

In a speech ut Portland, Me-, Aug.
Is. Jas. 4. Blaine said:
/ shall not discuss trusts this after
noon. l shall not venture to say that
they are altogether advantageous or
disadvantageous. They are largely
private affairs, with which neither
President Cleveland nor any private
citizen has amy particular right to in.
terfere.
And it isat the bidding of this same
Blaine that all republican policy is
moulded. Because Blaine said so, a
republican senate desists from its
work upon substitute for the Mills
tariff reduction bill. And at the
moment that these words are uttered
honest statesmen are devising means
and are working for the relief of the
American people from the oppression
of these trusts. The people will de-
eide next November whether they
agree with Mr.. Blaine in his trust
doctrine; whether they think that
there should be encouraged by our
government these most deadly of enc
mics to the commercial interests of
the country and to the interests of
every consumer in the land. Trusts
are defined by Senator Regain, in bin
for their abolition and the punish
ment of the parties to them, as IA
combination OF capital OF skill by two
or more persons to create restrictions
of trade, to limit, reduce or increase
production or price of commodities,
or to prevent competition in the man
ufacture or sale of anything"
But that Blaine should be the faith
er of such pernicious doctrine is not
surprising, at all, for trusts are bnt
the material offsprings of the protec.
tive tariff policy, Of which he is such
an ardent supporter.
