ANTI-MONOPOLY LEGISLATION FAILURE
(Report by +. l.. III. for Glass c.

Professor Ely, in his Outlines of Economics, de-
fines pool or combine as definite formal agree
ment between firms engaged in certain industries
not to compete; and mentions the Standard Oil
Co. and the Goal Combine" The latter should
certainly be modified by the word anthracite as
it is to that kind of coal exclusively that the COM
bine has devoted its attention and that it is able
to control. The statement that the efficiency of
the results of state legislation to regulate mono
poles cannot be viewed with cOmplacency;" will
receive the Endorsement of all unbiased persons.
The question that naturally arises is: Why is it
that legislation is not efficient? Leaving aside
corruption and bribery, two very potent factors
the main causes of this inefiiciency may be sum-
med up as follows: First, the incOmpetency of
the average politician to deal with the economic
problem and the business principles involved:
Second. the Indifference of the average public
to the enforcement of the laws. AS an illustra-
ton OF the first of these causes will cite the So
called coal combine of this state. Who does not
remember the result of the attempt of the last
legislature to deal with this monopoly. No doubt
these SoOns we're sincere and wellmeaning, but
their efforts were i'll directed and consequently
resulted in ignOminious failure; one of the main
reasons OF this defeat was, that the majority of
the members had in reality no idea who the real
members were that constituted the combine
but acted on the suppoStion that the dealers in
the yarious cities were the cOnSpiratOrs. This
was most erroneous conception. The combine
in reality consisted of those eastern capitalists
who had formed che five corporations that were
organized for the simple purpose of acting as dis
tributing agents of the product throughout the
Northwest. Would any law enacted by the Min
nesota legislature reach these gentlemen? The
first step that would be necessary to success,
would be the enforcement of the antitrust laws
in New York. Pennsylvania and Ohio, the resi-
dences of these stockholders
As an example of the second cause of failure.
viz: The Indifference Of the average public to
the enforcement of the laws. Let look mo-
ment at the railroad rates in connection with the
former. A ton of coal is carried from Buffalo,
Cleveland or Toledo to Duluth by water, an aver
age distance OF 900 miles at the rate of 40 cents
per ton of 2240 lbs. or for short ton. 357 cents.
Yet it costs the people of ST. Paul or Minneapolis
from 81 to .25 to have a ton shipped from Duluth
a distance less than 1-6 the former. Could such
a rate be maintained for any period of time if the
members of the state board of railroad commits
SiOnerS attended to their duties and would such
neglect be tolerated for moment were it not for
the Indifference of the public? For great many
of these evils the people can blame one but
themselves.

The following from the Newark, N.
j. Sunday Call, will interest our
readers:
Architect Irwin G. Hooper, of this
city, has just completed set OF draw
ings in competition for a State Capt.
tol building to be erected at Olympia,
WASH, and the plans will be forward
ed early this week. The building is to
cost about a million dollars, and it
will be seen that the designs must be
extensive and elaborate. Mr.. Hooper
has devoted considerable time and
care in this work, as one OF bis objects
is to show that he is in the field for
this sort of work. So far as is known,
he is the only architect hereabouts
who has entered the competition, al
though, of course, there will be vast
number of designs sent in from all
parts of the West and from New
York. The architect who gets the
second award will receive 81 800; the
third, 81 600, and the fourth, $500.
Mr.. Hooper's designs show a
massive and stately edifice, 40 feet
wide and ITO deep. There will be
three stories to- the main structure,
which will have a fiat roof. In the
centre of the building, widthwise. a
large dome will rise. the form of the
dome is most attractive, and gives an
aspect of grandeur to the entire edifice.
The greatest height of the building is
136 feet. The chamber of the House
of Representatives is directly under
the dome. Back of this is the Senate
chamber, which ia in a sort of rear
wing, forty feet deep. The various
offices, ETC., are conveniently grouped
about the two chambers. The front
possesses strong feature in the high
and artistically conceived porch. 1t
has six great pillars of gothic style.
Indeed, the prevailing architectural
style throughout the entire exterior in
Gothic, with here and there some
Doric and Renaissance features. Mr..
Hooper will send eleven different draw
ings, five of the exterior, as many of
the interior, and one showing the sit
uation. Newarkers will unite in wish
ing Mr.. Hooper success in the compe-
titioD
