The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1899-05-26

Just now people are startled by the
principle of monopoly as 1t manifasts
itself in the industrial trust, and well
may they be startled The principle,
however. Is the same as that which
manifests itself in the effort of the ma
t1onal banker to secure a monopoly OF
the issue OF paper money.
The greenback is a rival of the bank
note and its presence is a constant
menace to the banks Of issue. Some
who recognize the evils that flow from
soap trust seem Indifferent to the
dangers that attend the forma ton of a
paper money trust
THE principle of the monopoly not
only lies at the foundation of the at
tempt to destroy the greenbacks, but
it is the controlling principle that un-
deries the crusade against silver as
standard of money.
Between 1850 and 1860. when the pro-
duction of gold was increasing and the
production of silver was small, three
nations demonetized gold and gave to
silver a monopoly of mint privileges
Early in the seventies the financiers
became alarmed at the increased pro-
duction of silver and conspired to de-
stroy silver as a standard money and
give a monopoly to gold, the produc-
tion of which at that time was sta
tionary.

FOR A WAR UPON TRUSTS
At the Mammoth Democratic Anti Monopoly Banquet in

Menace to Free Institutions

competition between producers, the
purchaser is sure to obtain what ne
wants at a reasonable price. When
competition is eliminated, the price is
controlled not by reason but by the
greed of the one who possesses the mo-
nopoly.
1T has been said that the power to
tax is power to destroy. A monopoly
possesses the power to tax it can levy
such assessments as it will upon the
purchaser and We can no more afford TO
permit such power to be exercised by
private individuals than we could af-
ford to authorize a private individual
to use the machinery of taxation in or
der to enrich himself at the expense of
his fellows.
THE government would be guilty of
gross neglect if it permitted individ-
uals to secure monopoly even without
legislative assistance, but it is still
more culpable if by legislative act it
furnishes the means by which a monop-
oily is secured. The corporation is the
means now employed by those who seek
to secure monopoly.
The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1899-05-26
"Since the corporation is fictitious
person, created by law, the power
that creates can regulate, restrain or
anniNIate.

To say that the government is i'm
potent to prevent the organization of
trusts is to say that it has called
into existence a fictitious person. and
that the fictitious person created has
become greater than the creator
One of the difficulties which has
been encountered in opposing trusts is
that the trust hides behind the federal
constitution when attacked by state
legislation and shields itself behind
state charters when attacked in
the federal courts. No remedy will be
complete that it not co-extensive with
the federal government

CATARRH OF STOMACH.
A Pleasant, Simple, but safe and Eff
fectual Cure fog It,

Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to incurable.
The usual symptoms are full or bloat-
ing sensation after eating, accompanied
sometimes with sour or watery risings,
formation Of gases, causing pressure
on the heart and lungs and difficult
breathing; headaches, tickle appetite,
nervousness and a general played out,
languid feeling.
There is often a foul taste in the
mouth, coated tongue and if the interior
OF the stomach could be seen it would
show Shiny. inflamed condition.
The cure Of this common and obstinate
trouble is found in treatment which
causes the food to be readily, thorough
~ dlgested before it has time to fer
ment and irritate the delicate mucous
surfaces of the stomach To secure a
prompt and healthy digestion is the one
necessary thing to do and when normal
digestion is secured the catarrhal con-
dition will have disappeared.
According to DR.. Harlanson the safest
and best treatment Is to use after each
meal tablet, composed of Diatase,
Aseptlc Pepsin, a little Nux, Golden
Seal and fruit acids. These tablets can
now be found at all drug stores under
the name of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets
ana not being a patent medicine can be
used with perfect safety and assurance
that healthy appetite and thorough di-
gestlon will follow their regular use at
ter meals.
Mr.. N. j. Booher of 2710 Dearborn
ST., Chicago, ILL.,, writes Catarrh is
local condition resulting from neglect
ed cold In the head, whereby the lining
membrane of the nose becomes Inl1amed
and the poisonous discharge therefrom
passing backward into the throat
reaches the stomach, thus producing ca
tarrh of the stomach. Medical author

using only one box of Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets. l cannot find appropriate
words to express my good feeling.

terday afternoon for Beverley, w. Va.
There she will visit friends for several
weeks and after that take charge of a

great satisfaction to their employers.
We confidently recommend her as most

see her leave the old town. She hopes
however, to get back again by Christmas
and spend the holidays. The best wishes
for her success go with her.
