by Eastern tolerance, as a bone is flung
to dog, but they insult the section in
which they live by connecting it with
their own debasement. The South knows
nothing of finance? The South had no
existence prior to 1866? The South is new
and ignorant and without fiscal training?
Out upon such rot. There was a South
before ls65. and 1t is the same South still,
in spite of the gable and cackling of
the disciples of the neoterlc. There was
South before His Honor Mayor Ochs
was horn into the worll to brighten and
bless East Tennessee craftsmanship. Be
cause Robert Morris took charge of the
National finances and carried the govern
ment through a perilous crisis 1T has long
been claimed that the North possessed a
monopoly Of fiscal knowledge. but Robert
Morris was an Englishman. and while he
managed the governments finances sue
cessfully, he spent three years and a half
in prison for debt afterward because he
could not manage his own. The old
South. which is the present South, fur-
nshed the country more than her quota
of financiers, as she has done of sta.ss-
men, Of economists, of princes of the
house of commerce and leaders in all
the schools of thought, in all the work
shops Of action. The leading fnanciers
of New York today are Southern men.
The South has no reason to feel abashed,
and sho has not commissioned Mayor
Ochs or anybody else to make her apollo
gies to the Massachusetts, Reform club,
nor to promise better behavior in the
future by pointing out the diminuton of
ignorance and the increase in the num-
Dor of public schools. When the time
comes that the South must send a repre-
sentative democrat to Boston she will Sc
lect someone who represents something be-
sides his own unmitigated audacity and
limtlcss gall. and he will not come from
East Tennessee, which Is as much part of
the South as is the interior of Sagadahoc

TRICKS OF The trust defenders all

DEFENDERS. Mr.. Thurber told the
Lexow committee how the prices Of trust
products had fallen in the past thirty
years. Mr., Thurber said that freight rates
were reduced by the railway pool from S.cS
cents per mile In 1865 TO o.12 per mile in
1895; that oil had been reduced by the
Standard Oil Trust from ISL cents per
gallon In 1871 to as cents in 1896; and that
sugar had been reduced by the Sugar trust
from s.7S5 cents pound In 1879 TO 1879
cents In 1926. Therefore, he argued, trusts
are a tremendous benefit TO us all. aud We
should be Kind to them. Whereat the other
trust defenders pointed triumphantly TO
Mr. Thurber and said: Get around that II
you cam
This is exactly the same argument We
used to hear frcm the tariff robbers, and
they were very proud OF IL for long time.
They used to say that protection was a
great thing for everybody because, though
1t enabled them to pay American wages TO
American workmen" and gave themselves
fair living into the bargain. yet 1t rad
steadily reduced the prices Of their prod
ucts-steel rails. for instance.
But i, finally came to be understood by
everybody that. though prices OF projected
products had fallen. they had not fallen rs
fast as the prices OF unprotected produces;
and from that day TO this the mill bosses
have not mentioned the argument they used
to pride themselves on.
In view of this experience II is rather sur
prising to lind the trust defenders relying
on the very same argument. and evidently
expecting the public to be bamboozled by
it. Freight rates. oil and sugar have evil
IDENTIFY fallen since 1865; but the reduction
has not been equal to that in the price OF
any other commodity.
The difference between the present cost OF
trust products and the present cost OF pro-
ducts of free competition, with regard to
former cost. can be accurately measured. 1t
Is precisely the amount Of nlne-tenths Of
the private fortunes of Messrs. Rockefeller,
Havemeyer ct al.
MIR. Thurher did no more service to the
trusts by advancing this argument than he
did by going 10 Albany to defend the gas
trust on the ground that 1.-The spirit abroad
in the State against corporations and trusts"
