No. 157 Emerson St., South Boston, is the
present home Of Rev. c. J. Freeman, A. 3.
Ph.D., the recent rector of st. Marks Episco-
pal Church at Anaconda, Mont. During the
reform movement which has swept over Bos-
ton, DIR. Freeman has been frequently heard
from through tho various newspapers and
although resident Of comparatively recent
date he has exerted much public influence
which has been increased by the fact that he
was ten years ago on a commission appointed
in England to investigate the troublesome
question of the vice of great cities.
He has preached before cultured audiences
in the old world, as well as to the rough
pioneers in the mining towns of the Rocky
mountains, and his utterances as well as his
writings have been in the line Of progress and
liberality, well-seasoned with practical COM
mon sense. DR.. Freeman has written this paper
letter which will be read with much interest.

ANTITRUST LEGISLATION.

A recent communication in the Journal
from Hon. w. II. III. Miller. attorney gen.
eral under President Harrison. vindicates
his successor IN office from the charge of
not having tried to enforce the antitrust
law of 1890. Proceedings TO that end be-
gun by Mr.. Miller were. he says. pushed
with zeal and energy after the Cleveland
administration came in. The particular
suit referred to was that against the
Sugar Trust and Mr.. Miller says. THE
failure of the case. in my judgment, was
due not to lack of energy or ability in the
prosecution, but to the inadequacy of the
statute to meet the case" The point of
difficulty seems to be that the power of
Congress to legislate on the subject is linn
tied. 1t is derived from that clause of the
Constitution which gives Congress power
to regulate commerce among the several
States" Its power in the premises begins
and ends with interstate commerce. and
unless the operations of trust fall dis
tinctly under that definition the legislation
of Congress must fail 1t is true. as Mr..
Miller says, that "the head of the Depart
to censure for falling. by proceedings in
the United States courts, to suppress
trusts which the Supreme Court holds to
be legal in their character and not amen
able to the statutes of the United States"
but such a situation shows the need of
further investigation to see if a more
stringent law cannot be framed. One
this behalf is supplemented by that of the
States. and between them they can cover
the whole question. Congress can legislate
for commerce among the States and each
State for commerce within it's own limits,
and thus, by joint action, they can reach
nounced that the closing months of the
present administration are likely to be
marked by a determined effort to get a
favorable decision under the present law.
1t is said that Attorney General Harmon
has prepared a powerful argument i'm the
case of the Transmissouri Freight Asso-
citation and that the case will be advanced
on the Supreme Court docket for argu-
ment next month. The case is now set
for Dec. and will be argued by the at,
torney general in person. The Transmits
souri, Freight Association is a trust en-
bracing eighteen separate and distinct rail-
road corporations. most of which were
built by State. county or municipal aid,
and which have entered into combina-
ton to prevent competition and maintain
freight rates. The case comes up by ap-
peal from the Circuit Court for the Dis
trict of Kansas. and ii contains all the
elements for strong argument. If the
government cannot get favorable deci-
sion in the case it will be almost useless
to make any further attempt in that di-
rection under the present law. and will
show the necessity of further legislation.
The Indianapolis journal., 1896-11-25

this cause proves the superior intelligence
of Republicans on the subject and shows
that in very close election, other things
being equal. the party whose voters were
best instructed in the manner of voting
would win. 1t is surprising that after six
years Of voting under the Australian
ballot system and after all the
efforts of the press and party managers by
instructions, sample tickets. ETC., TO m
struct people how to vote straight ticket,
there are still nearly 5000 voters in the
State who do not know the difference be-
tween stamping in the square surrounding
the device and in the one in front of the
first name on the ticket. 1t would be inter-
esting to know whether these blundering
voters mostly consist of densely ignor-
ant persons who never will learn how to
vote. whether they are young first
voters who will know better next time. In
any case. it shows the necessity of contin-
ual effort to keep down the percentage of
loss from this cause.
