ATrust Is Communism.

Two months ago there appeared
in The Foram a statement OF the
growth Of the Standard Oil Trust,
and defence Of its organization,
by Mr.. s. &. Il. Dodd, the solicitor
OF the trust. In the July number
of The Forum, there appears re-
ply by MIR. Roger Sherman, who
compactlv makes an argument not
only against the Standard Oh Trust
whose methods he sharply criticises,
but against trusts in general, all OF
which, be maintains. are illegal aud
communistic. Indeed, the gst of
his argumen is that trust Is es-
sentially and necessarily communls-
tic. The defenders of trusts tells
us that by the prodigious accumu-
lation of capital and the enormous
savings that can be effected by large
economies, great benefits may ac-
crue to the consumer, while at the
same time every producer may be-
come a part owner Of the trust.
Against this alluring doctrine Mr..
Sherman builds up this argument /:
Granting that what is said in favor
of the trust is true, IL nevertheless
follows that it denies TO those who
would be individual competitors the
right of individual action. The re-
suit is that every large trust becomes
in effect, communistic organlza-
ton, the members Of which may
not exercise their absolute indivld-
nal rights, but must be owned and
controlled by the rulers Of the trust.
They must act in servitude and
think only by proxy. The Stan
dard Oil Trust, by Mr.. Dodds
own showing, Mr.. Sherman argues,
ia palpably within the domain of
communism. The question is
whether il is better for man to
maintain his individual freedom or
to become the slave of communal
ty, and this is the essential question.
ton. els it really true" Mr.. Sher-
man asks, "that the world has rolled
backward to this desperate condition
Is it true that the force Of money,
moved by avaricious intelligence,
has but taken the place of thai
physical force with which power, in
earlier days, inflicted the wrongs
against which all freemen success
fully rebelled? Before we answer
in the affirmative, let there be care
full investigation of the facts, and
let the spirit of manhood, moral
sentiment, and religious conviction
unite with the active business in
terests of the land in protest against
the gospel of greed"

OUR LIBEL SUIT.

Mr.. Frank H. Owen, formerly MEM
Der of the school board OF this district
has brought suit for libel against the
HERALD, claiming that his reputation
was damaged by the HERALD's criticism
OF the actions of the school board to the
amount OF ten thousand dollars. OF
course it is Mr.. Ovens privilege to bring
such suit, if he thinks best; but what
ever may be the outcome of this one, the
HERALD expects always to speak without
hesitation and fearlessiy regarding the
actions Of all public bodies, so long as it
continues under its present management.

OF Chehalis county, state of Washington,

tees in their respective counties call
primaries for the election OF delegates to
a county convention, primaries TO be held
on Saturday, August the 9th, and that
the county conventions be held in several
counties on Saturday, August the 18th,

vided.
1t is further recommended that the
primaries for the election OF delegates to
the several county conventions be con
Quoted as nearly as practicable under the

dent of the precinct whereat he offers to
vote and unless he be known to be a

PEOPLES

Here we have ticket with the vaii ous
names of three political parties: each
party has candidate for each of the
seven offices to be filled. The ticket has
been voted, the voter carefully checking
opposite the name he wished to support,
tx" exactly as the law directs. Sec.
1856, page 1913, reads "He shall prepare
his ballot, by making cross before or
after the name of the person or persons
Tor whom he intends to vote, for example
* ;" Now We presume the inspectors
receiving this ballot are made up of the
three parties. The Republican Judge
Will claim all the KS before and after
any oil his candidates names, and score
one vote each, for three OF his candidates,
ana the Peoples party claims the same
oeneht from the law and takes KS at
either end of the names of each of his
candidates and he scores four. or one
vote each for four of his candidates.
leaving the Democratic candidates with
out any votes. But to allow the Demo-
crat to have his way he would claim five
or one vote each for five of his candidates
leaving the Republican and Peoples
each with but one vote.
We would like to know who it is that
settles this question. Is it the voter or the
Republican officials who have such power
to count the ticket as they like.
1t is said that this scheme of a flexible
ticket was suggested in Grays Harbor by
the manipulators of one of our represent
atives from this county, in the first state
legislative assembly.
Such ticket should be amended at
Aberdeen herald. [volume] (Aberdeen, Chehalis County, W.T.) 1886-1917, 1892-08-04
CAN SUCH A THING BE?

The peoples party are certainly to be
commisserated over their choice of
o. G. Chase as candidate for the state
legislature. Not because OF any thing
personal to Mr.. Chase, but for the finan-
cial views Mr.. Chase has seen fit to
give out as his own through the columns
of the Hoquiam Washingtonian.
Mr.. Chase says, and it is hard to take
him seriously, yet we are compelled to do
SO, for there is nothing to suggest that he
means to he humorous:
The aggregate assessed valuation of
each county in the United States should
be returned to the Secretary of the Treas
ury at Washington, d. c., and that de-
partment should be authorized to supply
each county Treasurer with q certain and
fixed amount of currency based upon the
assessed valuation of property in that
county as needed. This money to be let
to each individual in that county in the
same proportion, based upon his assessed
personal and real property-say at the
rate of two per cent interest.
The currency could thus be inflated or
contracted as the necessities of the people
may seem to demand.
All persons borrowing this money to
be released of all taxes and assessments
to amount of interest thus paid. To
all who do not borrow, they to pay into
the treasury of the county the usual taxes
assessed against their property, which
levy sheuld equal half the interest
charged to the borrower.
The amount OF currency so issued may
run from rs to 30 per cent OF the assessed
valuation of the property. The govern
ment furnishes the currency to each
county free, and the county collects the
interest the same as other taxes, holding a
lien on all property for interest and prin-
cipal in similar way as property is now
held for taxes.
The peoples party is supposed to be
the party Of the people, yet there never
was plan suggested that would do more
to make the rich richer and the poor
poorer than that advocated by this can
didate Of the peoples party. Let us take
an instance, and see how such a law
would work practically: Suppose it in
operation, and that the head of the
Astors, whose wealth is principally in
real estate, goes to the government and
says:
According to the assessed valuation of
New York, have $2O,OOO,OOO worth of
real estate. want loan of so per cent.
OF the value Of my property"
He takes his $40 1000, 900 so borrowed,
re-invests it in real estate, on which he
always will be able to get good rental,
say eight per cent, and goes to the gov
eminent to negotiate another loan of
100000 on his newly acquired prop
erty; re-invests this, gets $1,000, 900 more
on his new security and continues this
method until, by the aid of paternal
government, his capital, instead OF being
0,0OO, 900, is $4O,0OO,OOO.
1t certainly would be hard to devise a
quicker way by which capital could
double its money.
So it is with renewed surprise we
find Mr.. Chase closing with the state
ment "Under scheme set forth herein
the concentration of wealth would cease"

A DIFFERENT TUNE.

The O,rgonian says that any attempt to
suppress the evils OF suffrage by the in
tervention OF federal force would bring
greater evils. This" it says, sis the
situation, as ever intelligent republican
in the North understands it, though it
does MT get into the republican plat
form in just these terms" This is what
might be called very liberal translation
OF the republican platform, and is trans
lation that completely changes the sense
Of the original. This desire on the part
of the Oysgouian to re-edit the force bill
plank OF the republican platform is
brought about by its realizing sense that
some such Interpretation is necessary in
order to allay the apprehension OF the
intelligent voter, both republican and
democrat, north and south, over such an
unwarranted extension of federal author

PLAY FAIR.

The HERALD has been suffering, but
can stand it no longer. The time has
come to register kick. Where two
newspapers are published in a place, it is,
we submit even to our republican
brethren, only fair division OF labor for
one paper to gather the news items dur
ing one half OF the week and the
other to do the gathering for the
remaining half. Week after week
the HERALD has been going through
the columns Of the Bulletin, scis-
sors in hand, hoping to be able to find an
item of local news that has not already
been printed in the HERALD: week after
week We find the Bulletins news columns
a reprint of what was in the preceding
HERALD. We suppose if the readers of
the Bulletin can stand it, we should not
kick; but we submit, again, it is not a
fair deal.

THEIR STOCK ARGUMENT.

The New England farm laborer gets SO
per cent. more for his labor today than
he did in 1858. There has been a so per
cent. raise in wages since 1857. In lS43
the Irish laborer on the railway of Mass
achusets working from dawn to dark re-
celvlng but 20 cents. Wages have more
than doubled in New England since l843
and nobody will pretend that the cost Of
the necessaries OF life to labor has doubled.
On the contrary, the great necessaries of
life represented by food and clothing are
cheaper than they were in 1S43 in New
England. Rents are higher than thew
were fifty years ago in New England, but
in other respects labor is not only better
off in New England than it was in 1S43,
but the largest share of the improve ment
In the condition of labor has taken place
since the first enactment of the Repub-
lican tariff policy in 1861. The laboring
man today has higher wages than he had
in 1850 by 30 per cent. Everything the
laboring man buys today he can get
cheaper on the average than he could
thirty-two years ago.-Ex.
This is the republican argument, but
they are not willing to abide by lis logic,
The earth is the Lords, they will tell
you; but the fullness and prosperity of
this part thereof is due to the Mckinley
bill, not to the Lord.
Even though we were to grant that all
they say above be true, why does it fol-
low that this condition is due to the re-
publican tariff policy? 10 one would
dare deny that the condition of the
English labering man thirty years after
the adoption of piactica. free trade was
not UNNECESSARILY superior to his con-
dition thirty years previous to the adop-
ton of that system. Are the republicans
willing to see the force OF their logic, and
admit that the improved condition OF the
British workingman is due to the practi-
cal adoption by Great Britain of free
trade?
Our prosperity has been in spite of the
republican tariff policy, not because of it.
Ii good times for the laborer flow from a
protective tariff policy, why is the condi-
ton OF the workman in Germany, one of
the extreme high protective tariff coun-
tries, so deplorable?

has always looked to Australia as coun-
try where the lumber market could best
be expanded Such tariff will shut
them out completely, and turn that
market over entirely to British Columbia.
II we believe this United States can
shut itself off from the commerce OF the
other nations Of the world, and be a
nation sufficient unto itself, let us persist
in the idiocies Of McKinleyism, with
the full knowledge that it will only be
question of short time when the other
nations will aid us in our desire for the
hermit's solitude.
