THURSDAY, APRIL /, 1897.



With commendable frankuess Gov
ernor Lowndes, in an interview pub
Iished in the Baltimore Sun of last
Friday and reproduced in the col
umns of The REPUBLICAN to-day,
makes the announcement that he is
a candidate for the seat in the United
States Senate now occupied by Sena-
tor German, whose term expires on
March 4, 1899. The Governor makes
this early announcement so that the
matter can be placed before the peO-
pie and if they want him to represent
them in the Senate their preference
in the matter will be made effective
at the Republican primaries and the
nominations for the Legislature this
fall.
GOyerOnr Lowndes has made an eX-
cellent executive officer. He has
promises of support from every sec
ton of the State and should he be
elected to the high office to which he
aspires he will make a creditable rep
resentative We feel sure Garrett
county will be with him.

elsewhere there has been the fiercest
competition, which has brought
prices, in this country at least, to a
non-paying basis. Protection is re-
sponsible for building up our indus
trial industries and opening mills,
but it is not responsible for trusts.
What would the Herald do? Would
it give us free trade and close these
mills just for the sake of stopping
combination of capital? The combi-
nations would not cease. They are
still going on in England.
Trusts are ruinous to small inter
ests, of course, and therefore much
to be deplOred. The Herald com
planes that the avenues to advance
ment of workingmen is blocked by
these aggregatiOns of capital: that
there is no hope of Il man rising to be
the owner of a mill. That is true.
Big combinations wipe out smaller
concerns and forbid new establish
ments. Break them up if you can,
by all means. But how? BY advOca-
ting free trade? Nonsense. They
thrive under free trade just Il easily
as they do under protection. Some
of these trusts, the Herdld says, are
"defying natural law, which will in
evitabIy crush them in time" Very
well; the only other way to get rid of
them is by specific law, and to the
State Legislatures you must look for
the control of combinations.
Trusts are born of a greed for power
and profit, and of desire to be free
from competition. If there wasn't a
mill in the country combinations
would still go on and control i'm
ports. 1t is useless to lay the crime
of trust aggregations upon the
shoulders of a protective tariff. The
root of evil will never be reached by
attacking the Dingley bill.-Phila.
InOuirpr
The Republican., 1897-04-01

THE tariff built up the trusts, y
trusts are building up the tariff. -
According to this analysis, we had
protection at first for infant indus
tries. When they came to adult age
they demanded more protection. AS
a result, the "barOnsn amasSed mil
lions until the artificial conditions pro
duced an excess of industrial plants
and there ensued destructive compe-
titiOn, which led the manufacturers
to combine. Excessive tariffs de-
stroyed foreign competition, and the
resulting trusts have destroyed do
mestic competition, and there you
are"
All, indeed. 1t is the tariff, then
that has built up all these trusts
We'll, this is the same old story. We
heard it in the Harrison campaign.
Cleveland was elected, but even a
free trade President and the Wilson
bill did not lessen the grip Of the
trusts. AS a matter of fact, they
grew in strength. If protection is
their sponsor, why was this? Is the
answer made that under the Wilson
bill there was still too much protec-
tion? Very well, then, letus turn to
England, where there is no protec-
ton. The city of London is the home
of the whole trust family. Some Of
the most gigantic combinations
known to man were born and foster
ed right there. They still exist, and
such thing as tariff bill is un-
known.
The time has gone by when any
one can successfully claim that duties
on imports are responsible for cOmbi-
nations of capital. Under all circum-
stances capitalists will seek combina-
ton, and the trust is the product,
not of tariff scheduls, but mainly of
overprOduction. The Standard Oil
Trust got it's start in rebates from
the railroads many years ago. Dis
elimination in railroad rates has
been stopped now, and that source
from which trusts were bred no long
er exists. But when the country is
overstocked, with sugar retineries
for instance, experience teaches that
there is more profit in a complete un-
derstaning than there is in a cut
throat fight.
obstructive competition, the
Herald says, ''led the manufacturers
to combine" Exactly so. Here and
