suit Will be naturally to throw many men

The American Biscuit Company is the
property of some of the wealthiest man
ufacturers on the coast. The other COM
panies doing business in this city are also
in the hands of wealthy men. All have
been doing a profitable business. The
general deduction is that these people
are interested in the new syndicate,
though it is certain that the great bulh
Of the capital comes from the East.
When the details of organization are
made public it will be seen thatSnearly
every mandatory worthy to be called
The new syndicate is the outgrOWth of
the war that for many years has been
waged among the cracker manufacturers
of this coast, the result of which has
been poorer products at constantly fall
ing cost price. Now the colossal power
of the trust steps in, and with its usua>
promises TO improve the quality of the
crackers without increasing the price.
That competition in the cracker indus

viii the new trust be left alone to ride
triumphant with its tabulated list of
prices from San Diego to Seattle, but
there is no redress for the Cracker-eating
community on this coast if the syndicate
wishes TO advance existing rates.
Some of the people who have agreed to
sell out 10 the syndicate claim that prices
Will be lower. They base their reason
ing on the broad principle that it is less
expensive to run a great number of plants
when directed by a single hand than to
have each Of these plants in separate Ope-
ration under distinct manag cement.
