that is not permissible under her own
laws? The condition is anomalous and
reminds me of the inconsistency of Con-
necticut, which some years ago incorpor-

provision that it wasnot to operate in that

The unprecendents multiplication Of
trusts and combine during the waning
months of the old year and thus far
into the present one, has made the
subject of their organization, effect up
on labor and material resources and
their ultimate result, an absorbing
topic among students of industrial and
political economy everywhere. While
some clever thinkers profess to see in
the movement nothing but the fulfill
ment of natural law fostered by the
times and conditions, others just as
sincere and acute of Judgment are con-
firmed in their opposition and pro-
nounced in their opinions against it.
Yesterday a representative of the Reg
lister was an interested listener to an
able exponent of the latter school, and
as the arguments are pertinent to and
are prophetic of future which Wheel
ing along with all other industrial CEN
tres must pass, some of the salient
fe lures are chronicled for the edifica-
ton of those who read and mediate
upon such subjects. The, fact that the
gentleman is legal light whose opin-
ions are not only highly regarded here
at his home, but throughout the State,
adds weight to anything he may say
upon this, the paramount topic of the
hour.
Our interlocutor is unalterably an
tagonistic to the popular craze of in
dustrial imperialism and can divine in
it nothing but misfortune to the people
as a whole if given full rein in its
ponderous sway But" said he, these
gigantic corporations must be held in
check, and l mistake the temper and
Judgment of the masses if the curb is
not soon effectually applied. There is
no one more fearful of public senti-
ment than the politician, and none are
more willing to cater to it when evinc-
ed with unanimity and determination.
1t is here the reform must begin-at
the polls-and those elected to perform
the specific duty of legislating against
monopolies must be made to under
stand that success will be the criterion
of their efforts.
"There are two ways of legislating
against the trusts. The States may
shut them out from operating within
their respective boundaries, or an
amendment can be made to the federal
constitution permitting action by Con-
gress that will effectually abolish them
from our country. A corporation, or
ganized for the evident purpose of mo-
nopolizing product and eXtorting arti-
fetal prices from the people, should be
outlawed and should not be permitted
to own a foot of ground or dollar S
worth of property.
But there win be a reaction, a re-
coil to this movement which not even
the trusts themselves will escape in its
direful consequences. To-day they are
