Among the inaugural utterances of
the incoming president was that upon
trusts. There was no toying with the
English language in dealing with this
subject. The country had heard what
the platform of the party had to urge
on that subject, and now they have
heard what the president who ac-
cepted his nomination on that platform
says of it. Upon these declarations it
is in order to look confidently to the
knocking out of the trusts in this
country if the Federal courts and the
recommendations of the executive can
engineer a law through Congress that
will hold water. To so outlaw the
trusts as not to protect their products
would be the surest way to prevent
their doing business at the old Amer
lean stand. That would settle it.

There is hardly question that this
country has reached a crisis in it's po-
litical affairs. If there is not a change
for the better in all our Industrial life,
less discomfort among the people, less
hatred of the classes by the masses,
and broader sympathy by all for all,
then there is going to be discord that
will tremble its disturbances to the
very roots of national existence That
Mr.. Mckinley understands this and
that he enters upon his work in the
hope of uniting the country industrial
ly and putting all our common life up
on a more assured level of helpfulness,
is certain. He will be disappointed if
he does not see a real change for the
better before the close of his admins,
tration. Stability in finances and such
industrial laws as will best favor the
industrious American citizen are his
instruments.

PROTECTION IN THE SADDLE.

The certainty that under this pres
ent Congress and for the four years
to come, we are going to give protec-
ton measures in this country a square
trial is accepted. 1t matters not what
revolution in politics may take place
two years hence, there is not going
to be in Congress a sufficient number
of free traders to carry free trade
measure over the veto of the presi-
dent. What is then wanted is thor
oughly perfected measure of protec-
tive legislation, covering all the wants
of the people, the schedules arranged
rather to protect than to raise reve-
nue., with the broadcast reciprocal ar
rangements with those countries
which do not compete with us in ma
tive products. This schedule made
law as speedily as possible in order
that the new arrangements may be
tried without delay. AS to results
there is no question in the minds of
the Republicans of the country, or Of
the old Randall Democrats, no few
of whom carry sound protection brains
under their Democratic head pieces.
NeXer has the country in the past been
other than prosperous under protec-
tive policies and there is no ground to
exepct anything less in the future.
Like regulations will produce like re-
Suits under like conditions, and the
conditions in this country are increas-
ingly in favor of protection each year.
This is very encouraging to those who
believe that upon this foundation, pro-
tected industry, the welfare of our
rests. Before there can
be a change in that policy the years
of prosperity will have flooded out the
last remnant of free trade fOOlishness
and driven the Democratic party to
find their point of divergence some
where else. That this is so is seen in
the growing influence that the protec-
tive Democratic journals have in the
party. Many of these could not retain
their hold on their constituents with
out accepting protection as their
standard. Not only so, there are sew
eral districts in the more distinctive
ly Democratic states in which
Democrat could not be elected upon a
free trade platform. Upon these facts
it seems not unreasonable to predicate
the growing influence of protective
advocates within the stronghold Of
free trade itself, and the final triumph
of protection in that it will be accpet-
ed by all parties and cease to be
bone of quadrennial contention.
