An Antitrust League.

\ national antitrust league has been
formed in st. Louis. 1t proposes to
fight the trusts by boycotting trust
made goods and inducing the con-
sumers to use only those manufactured
articles made by Independent concerns
The league, although very recently
started. already claims a city member
shin of 5000 and a country member
ship of $4,000, and hopes to accomplish
the destruction of all trusts in few
years Its president, a man named
Thompson. says the plan is 10 pay
every member certain per cent. dis
count if he trades in those goods which
are not manufactured by the trusts.
Coupons will be issued to merchants
who deal in such goods. The purchaser
is to be given a coupon with each ar
ticIC bought. and these will be redeemed
at headquarters at a certain per cent.
The object is to make it a mutual or
ganizatiOn for the prOtec, 'on of the
purchaser and the Independent mer-
chant and manufactures. In this man
ner it is hoped To create demand for
antitrust goods and thus defeat the
great trade combines and nullify their
effort to raise prices to eXorbitant
figures.
The success Of a movement of This
kind depends entirely upon the honesty
and skill with which it is managed.

consumers should not follow their eX-

consumers together If they are gouged
only a little apiece by the trusts, IT
makes millions for the gougers, but it
doesn't hurt them enough individually
to force them to organize for self-pro-
lection. The best cure for the trust
evil is the natural law that when one

There is a beautiful directness i'm the

pended upon substantial favOrs con-
fcrred upon relatives of the Tammany
boss Richard Croker. This was fol-

mttec by the testimony of Crolier's
son, youth Just out of college, that
h. was IN receipt of $500 a year as
salary from 4 construction company
for looking over its mail' and
bringing fellows around" the said
company not having been able, prior
to young CrOkers connection with it.,
to secure permits from the building
commissioners to do business, although
after young Croker had been added to
its board of directors it got all the
business it could handle.
These facts it will be perceived. es-

there is apparently no way to reach

IT Is in the highest degree cXpedient

outrage this sense of justice adds to
the force OF demagogy, producing envy

fortunate, and makes them all the
stronger. The feeling of injustice is
a great motive to action. We should
stand clearly for this principle; that
no addition should be made by the
act of man to the inequality which
nature brings about between different
men. 1t is just as foolish to interfere
with nature, which gives men energy

is wrong to use the power of the state

the expense of their less gifted broth

of social power has been largely in the
direction of shackling force. Now
there remains the still more difficult
task of shackling cunning. Crude,
ignorant attempts to accomplish this
are dangerous. and only serve to post
pOnc wise legislation. But we must
keep in mind the necessity of making
useful members of the community who
benefit the community by at the same
time benefiting themselves, pay to the

they acquire through the backing of
the community"
