The arrant humbug of the Repub-
licsn partys protests againt monopo-
lies and their tender care for all such
institutions were again brought to light
this week by decision of the Supreme
Court of the United States. They
congratulated themselves largely on
the passage of the Sherman antitrust
law and posed as the friends of the
people on the strength of it. Bac the
court has just decided that the terms
of the law are so cunningly devised
that it cannot be stretched to cover the
Sugar Trust-the sole and supreme
deity of Republicans and "conserva-
tives.
