Next year there will be a grand sweep
of Governors. A new Governor is to be
elected for every State in the Union with
the solitary exception of New Jersey. This
seems odd, but the simple explanation is
that this State chooses a Governor every
three years, while the terms in all the
others are for one. two or four.

We quote below an article from Tues
days True american, which may explain
the activity of Messrs. Loudenslager, Moi
felt and Barber in the late primary sena-
torial contest also the presence of big
corruption fund in the primary election
There are some trust defenders who feal
lest the abolition of the trusts, Or remedia
legislation against them, may assail vested
rights and destroy values
That, if it be the case, is the fault and
the folly of those who went into the trusts
as a money making scheme.
Almost all of the so-called American
trusts were organized in the State of New
Jersey under the lax general corporation
law of this State
There is no authority ia that law for the
formation of monopoly, and any memo
poly which is formed under it is formed al
the owners risk.
The general corporation act especially
reserves TO the State the right and power
TO alter, amend or repeal any OF its provi
sions, and every company which wal
formed under the act took its certificate o
incorporation with that danger.
The act has been so abused, and thu
corporations have so abused the generosity
of the State, that it has become publ,
duty to amend the law so as to bring thu
corporations, present and future, under (
closer surveillance and a more effective con
troll
The State of New Jersey can tax,
nine.tentbs of the trusts by the throat ant
choke them into an equality with the res
of the people.
And it ought to do it."

organized to prey upon people outside.
PLAN TO DESTROY TRUSTS.
am ready TO adopt any method for the ami.
hilation of trusts. One that tuggest is this:
That Congress should pass a law providing
that no corporation organized in any State
should do business outside of the State in which
it is organized until It receives from some power
created by Congress license authorizing it to
do business outside OF its own State. Now. II
the corporation must come TO this body created
by Congress to secure permission to do business
outside the State, then that license can be
granted upon condition which will in the first
place, prevent the watering of stock; in the
second place. prevent monopoly in any branch
of business; and third, provide fer publicity as
to ali Of their transactions and business OF the
corporation.
If this is unconstitutional and is declared by
the Supreme Court, 1 am in favor OF an amend
ment to the Constitution that viii give to Con-
gress power destroy every trust in the country.
In nay judgment, when you take from monopoly
the power TO issue watered stock you win 90
more than half way towards destroying mono
poly in the United States.
You can provide for publicity. and that
annually or at such other times the corporation
shall make returns Of its business. Of It's earn
ings, and this VIII go another long step, towards
the destruction of the principle of monopoly.
But I am not willing to stop there, and, there
fore. as a third condition. / suggest that no
license shall be granted until the corporation
shows that it has not had monopoly and is not
attempting monopoly OF any branch of indus
try or any article of merchandise, and then pro-
vide that if the law is violated the license can
be revoked. do not believe in tn Government
giving privileges to be exercised by corpora
ton without reserving The right to Withdraw
them when those privileges become hurtful to
the people.
Much contention has been that we have been
placing the dollar above the man; that we have
been picking out favortes in Government; we
have been bestoying upon them special priviI-
eyes. and every advantage we have given them

concluding with the following:
Think of the fearful cost in life and
treasure of the emancipation of 1000 600
slaves at home a few years ago Let us
think seriously before We approve CT max
ing 100o0,000 of men our vassals. 10 600
miles away, in violation of the great prin-
ciple Of the Declaration OF Independence
IL is said by some that the FilipinoS are
not capable of government This has
always been the statement and excuses of
tyrants who have desired to enslave their
fellows. They may not want a govern
ment exactly like ours; perhaps it might
not be best in all respects. Dewey has
told US that they were more capable OF
government than the Cubans. and at
any rate, they could govern themselves
better than We could govern them They
thought they were to have their own gov
ernment when tie Spaniards were de-
feated, but when they found that Presi-
dent Mckinley wanted an army of from
$1,000 to 100000 soldiers to occupy ihei-
islands the sad idea dawned upon them
that after all they We're but changing mas
ters, and after having no satisfaction
given them as 10 the intention of this
Government they commenced to try 10
repeI an invasion of what they believed
TO be their enemies. An assurance from the
President of independence such as Congress
has granted Cuba would have prevented
war with the Filipinos. and many lives
and millions of money would have been
saved this country; nor would We now oc-
cupy the very unenviable position we must
in the history of the world Now, if YOU
nave had any idea that you must support
the action of Mr.. Mckinley because wicked
men have drawn him away from the fun
damental principles of this Government:
II you have had any idea of following him
IL this road to destruction in the Ian
guage OF Abraham Lincoln, Let us en-
treat you TO come back, return TO the foun-
tain whose waters spring close by the
blood of the revolution: come back to the
truth of the Declaration of Independ-
enCe.'
