Mr. John T.. Searles. the Treasurer OF
what is popularity known as the"susar
trust made statement on Monday
last in his testimony before the Lexow
committee in New York city which is
eminently true and which the American
people would do well to reflect upon most
seriously. Being asked. is the increase
of large corporations a disadvantage 10
the worlungman?" he replied:
"No. sir: but If we had less legislation
we would be better Off. II you Will make
laws that will invite capital to this state
instead of driving IL away, 1t would De
an advantage. But so long as investiga-
tions like this are fomented. 1t makes cap
ital unsafe and uncertain. and makes
il act on the defensive as though II were
the enemy of the workingman. There
is a law far higher than the Legislature
Of the State of New York law or
supply and demand-which controls these
things. and which no trust, however biz
Is able 10 violate.
That is ar true as anything that ever
was said. in each Of its branches. No
enterprise can prosper and laborers cam
not get employment without capital
But capital is the most timid thing in the
world II people enact laws that are
hostile TO it it shrinks from allowing
itself TO become involved with the affairs
OF that people. the managers OF enter
prises find themselves cramped. the in
terest rates they must pay are increased.
81 Oh tbge Comes ont of che ,yOY,xingmau
because it diminishes the power OF the
employer to pay wages. \ policy OF thar
sort abridges the power of u people TO
produce. and that abrldges the oppor;u-
mites OF working people to find employ
ment
Laws aimed at regulating trade never
vet produced any effect except to en-
barrass 1t and TO make what the citi-
zens must buy dearer. The way and the
only way 10 have cheap products. is to

supply and demand will always regulate
every condition and produce the very
best result attainable II 1t is oniy ie''
alone TO operate freely and without re-
strictions.
IN the same issue that oonsalh'" ~
Sear,es' testimony there was a s'rlN'"~
illustration e its truth. The te'es''""
informed the world that day that the
nadine bolt trust had gone TO pieces
The trust insisted upon selling their gooos
at an unreasonable profit. THIS proh'
tempted the cupidity OF its own members.
They commenced secret cutting and III
a short time Broke up the whole affair
That result IS just as inevitable where
trusts insist upon making unreasonable
profits as the appearance Of day AFTER
night. 10 matters not how ricr d""
strong trust may be. II 1t insists upon
making unreasonable profits it Will tempt
competitors to vie with II and II Will be
DESTROYED unless # comes down TO no
more than reasonable rates.

FARMERS AND POLITICS,

The Richmond State IS much distressed
because OF some recent advice which The
Times gave TO Virginia farmers with re-
ference to their proposed convention. In
the FIRST place the State anxiously in
qpires IL The Times means to say that
farming in Virginia and in the South Is
conducted I'm a slip-shod way. In the
next place it wants TO know If The Times
means TO sa. that the farmer may not
take an active part in the administration
Of public affairs. What The Times did
say was so perfectly plain that there is
10 reason for the State TO ask questions.
unless ii is trying TO make ii appear that
The Times has said something dreadful
about farmers. We said and we repeat
that in this day slip-shod farming will
not pay. and that is no more reflection
on the farmers of the South than it is
a reflection on business men TO say that
slip-shod business will not pay. There
are intelligent. business-like farmers. and
there are slip-shod farmers. The former
get along well and the latter do not.
That's all there is about IL.
AS to the other question it is absurd TO
intimate that The Times does not expect
the farmers of the country to take part in
politics. IL is the duty not simply of the
farmer but of every citizen TO take a
keen interest in public affairs. But the
farmer who cultivates politics TO the
neglect of his crops will come out wanting
at harvest time
The farmer who cutivates the soil in
telligently. who devotes his time TO his
work and who guides his affairs with dis
erection will always have corn TO sell TO
his neighbor who spends his time in at
tending political conventions. whose pur-
pose is to secure legislation which shall
benefit the agricultural industry.
is the State answered?
