Trusts and the Law.

While Chairman Mckinley is lis
tening to the testimony taken before
his committee of ways and means he
has reason to be carefully revolving
in his mind the question of trusts.
What is he going to do with them ?
The Tribune believes as he doubtless
does, that in the long run and in
most cases the protective tariff, by
steadily encouraging home competi-
ton, will break down combinations
to control price or production against
the interests of consumers. But the
people are not willing to rely upon
that defence alone, as they show by
laws enacted in many states. 1t is
possible, in the production of some
protected article, a combination may
arise as powerful and enduring as
the Standard Oil Company. 1t is
certain that the growth of home com
petition, if it cannot be permanently
arrested, is at least retarded by some
combinations which now exist, and
the people have right to ask wheth-
er legislation can afford a more
speedy relief. The Trust, if there
be one, which makes no effort to fix
price or to limit production, is not
the thing meant by the people when
they aim at these combinations. Any
Trust which does either of these
things in attempting to deprive the
people of the benefits which protec-
tion is intended to secure. If it
closes some works, or all works part
of the year, it throws American la
borers wholly or partly out of en-
plOyment, but protection promises
larger employment for American
labor. If the trust stops cOmpeti-
ton as to price, and compels the
people to pay enough to afford
living to the least competent and
economical producers, the pledge of
protection has been that home COM
petition shall effectively guard the
people against monopoly, and ensure
ultimate cheapness. In either form
the Trust OF combination is at war
with the principles and purposes of
protection, and has no business to
enjoy any of its benefits. Protection
has been falsely assailed and mistak-
enly distrusted, on the ground that
it makes these combinations possible
and shelters them. Would it be
wise, in any revision of the tariff, to
leave this impression uncorrected by
remedial provisions Strong meas
ures have been proposed in the SEN
ate, dealing directly with such com
binations as are hostile to the public
good, but the Missouri law is in
terms stringent enough, and yet the
White Lead Trust fourishes and
raises the price. Is it not plainly
equitable, when men who enjoy the
benefits of protection unite to de-
prive the people of those benefits,
that they should be helped by the law
no longer? 1t is not overlooked that
there is difficulty in devising RENE
dy which shall not injure those who
conspire against them. But Mr..
Mckinley has a well-earned reputa-
ton for solving difficult problems.
This is one which may well occupy
his mind. Tribune.

1t is estimated in some quarters
that over 5000, 100000 of English
money has been invested in Ameri-
can industrial enterprises, but this is
mere guess work. The amount is
large, but so insignificant in compar-
ison with local capital invested as to
occasion no concern. The interest
ing fact is that the English money
thus invested comes from the middle
classes rather than from those who
have been accustomed to buy Ameri-
can railroad shares. They have paid
high prices for American plants and
have released local capital for other
employment. Our English cousins
are just beginning to wake up to the
extent of industrial development here,
and while the professional ''promo-
ters," as they are called, have over
done the business Of presenting
American schemes in London, yet we
anticipate a greater influx of capital
from this quarter in the near future
than ever before.

England is to take a departure in
her monetary course, according to re-
port. which will give the bimetalists
more encouragement than they have
received in ten years altogether. This
is the issue of s15, 100000 in one
pound silver notes. The queen, it is
said, will make the scheme the chief
feature of the speech from the throne
on the opening of parliament, and
the notes have already begun. The
price of silver has lately been rising,
and this is said to be one of the
causes.

AS if mistakes in the tariff had not
been enough to discourage sheep-rais-
ing, farmers in various parts of New
England complain that dogs are worse
than bears and almost as bad as free
traders. They kill and worry great
many sheep. As the responsibility
can not be traced, it is provided by
law. at least in some states, that the
dog license fund shall be divided
among the sufferers. But this is in
sufficient, and there is general con-
cnrrence in ilic remar If lie Spring.

The London American Gazette con-
denses several significant little truths
into the statement that "the Ameri-
can millers can beat us, in fact can
beat the whole world, at selling -four
as they are doing, only that the
American people eat the best and
sell the rest, whereas some other ex-
porting countries, Austria-Hungary
for example, do just the other thing"
The United States is one of the very
few nations of the world of which it
can be said that their people seat
the best and export only their sur
plus.

Congressman Samuel j. Randall of

Metropolitan Presbyterian church in

made his peace with all those public

with the fact.

experience is therefore invaluable.
As chairman of the Senate Commit
tee on appropriations he has long
held a prominent and influential place
in that body. He probably has few
er animosities than any man sitting
in the Senate Chamber, which may
be ascrihed to his placid and equable
temperament. He is an able man,
whose services havs been sought by
several Presidents in the formation
of the Cabinets, the Treasury portfo-
lio being the one he has been consid-
cred peculiarly we'll fitted to control.

Lieutenant Peter Leary, the United
States army officer detailed to inspect
the encampment of the Vermont Ma
tional Guard at West Randolph, Au-
gust 2O-25, has made his report to
the secretary Of war. The report re-
commends that the Legislature be
urged 10 extend the length Of the en-
campment to two weeks, and that
one day in the autumn and two days
in the spring be allowed Fuller's Bat
terv for mounted drill and field artill-
cry practice. Substantial progress
in target practice was made by the
command during the year. Great
improvement in instruction in skir-
mish drill was observed in the whole
command, which went satisfactorily
through all the details Of battalion
skirmishing. Fuller's Battery showed
steady Improvement in every respect
over it's work of last year. Lieuten-
ant Leary says that the field hospital
is better equipped as to its chest of
medical supplies than any camp be
has ever seen. This field hospital
medicine chest is the invention Of
Hospital Steward F. H. Chapman,
Vermont National Guard, and it is
so complete that the officer considers
is worthy of examination by the med
ical purveyor's department of the
army. The daily medical inspection
of the camp as to cleanliness pro-
duced the best results. Camp police
was perfect. sin many years SER
vice." says Lieutenant Leary, Il have
never seen a cleaner camp in every
respect than was the camp at West
Randolph. Company streets, kltch
ems and grounds were all scrupulous-
lv neat and clean every morning by
guard mounting" The report refers
to the visit of Secretary Proctor and
General Schofeld, and closes with a
number of recommendations. One
is that an appropriation Of $4,000 be
solicited for q building and other
purposes at the new camp-ground
Another is that no permanent ground
be selected that does not permit q
range of 1000 yards for infantry
practice and 5000 for artillery prac-
tice. 1t is suggested that no enlist
ments be permitted within two months
before the annual encampment, and
that every company be required to
drill at least once a month. 1t is
further recommended that in all de-
tails of military duty, more espec-
tally guard duty, there be no depart
ure from the methods in force in the
regular army.
