With last weeks unparalleled SELL

not. We have our own potteries,

New York Post: The Rev. William r.
Walker of Joliet, H., has won his long fight
against the railroad companies over the
question of his right to a half-fare clerical
permit. This had been denied to the Joliet
clergyman as he claims, because he had
freely criticised certain features CT railway
management. Resenting the implication
that the half-fare permit was a gag for
clerical mouths, Mr.. Walker, after ineffec-
tual appeals to the railroad companies, took
his case before the Interstate commission.
on the ground that the permit is a courtesy
which, if allowed to any clergyman, should
be accorded to all. But the railroads did not
want decision rendered which might prove
a troublesome precedent; therefore. the
chairman of the Western Passenger associa-
ton forwarded to Mr.. Walker a new half
fare permit in place of the one that had been
revoked, and the case was dismissed.

The question as to what shall be the
future political status Of the new Dos
sessions of the United States is one of
the most important that congress must
determine. Shall they he made an in
tegral part OF the union or kept in the
position of dependent possessions? The
subject is not discussed in the Drcsi-
dents message, but there is an implied
opinion that the possessions we have
acquired may be governed in any way
that congress sees fit and need not be
locked upon as an integral part of the
union itself This is the view taken
by Secretary Root, who says in his re-
port that under the treaty of Paris "all
acquisition of territory was the exercise
of n power which bel l-nged TO the United
States, because it was nation, and for
that reason was endowed with the
powers essential to national life. and
the United States has all the powers
in respect of the territory which ii has
thi!s acquired, and the inhabitants Of
that territory, which any nation in the
world has in respect of territory which
it has acquired" He further SAYS that
as between the people of the ceded
islands and the United States che
former are subject to the complete soy
ereignty of the latter, controlled by no
legal limitations except those which
may be found in the treaty of cession;
that the people of the islands have no
right to have them treated as states
or to have them treated as the terri
tories previously held by the United
States have been treated. or to assert
II legal right under the provisions of
the constitution which was established
for tile people of the United States
themselves and to meet the conditions
existing upon this continent or 10 as
sert against the United States any legal
right whatever not found in the treaty."
Another authority on this subject, Mr..
John Bassett Moore formerly assistant
secretary of state and secretary of the
American treaty commission. is Of the
opinion that the territory acquired from
spain is not an integral part of the
United States necessarily, but is instead
merely the property of the United

RESTk1LNY OE TRADN.


What is meant by restraint of trade
was very clearly defined in the decision
of the United States supreme court in
the case of the Transmissouri Freight
association, brought under the antitrust
act of 1890. 1t was said in that decision
that in business or trading combinations
they may even temporarily, or perhaps
permanently, reduce the price Of the
article traded in or manufactured, by re-
ducing the expense inseparable from the
running of many different companies
for the same purpose. Trade or com
merce under those circumstances may,
nevertheless, "be badly and unlor-
tunately restrained by driving out Of
business the small dealers and worthy
men whose lives have been spent
therein and who might be unable to re-
adjust themselves TO their altered
roundings." In the view Of the art
any combination which operated TO de-
stroy free competition was necessarily
in restraint of trade, whether It in
creased or lowered the price Of the com
modify in which ii dealt or manufac-
tured.
The recent dccls n of the same fri
bunal in the pipe case containsa dcclam-
ton in harmony with the previous de
cision. 1t is said: we have no doubt
that where the direct and immediate ef-
feet Of Il contract or combination among
particular dealers in commodity is to
destroy competition between them and
others, so that the parties to the con
tract or combine may obtain increased
prices fr themselves, such contract or
combination amounts to Il restraint of
trade in the commodity, even though
contracts TO buy such commodity mt the
enhanced price are continually being
made, Totul suppress. n Of the trade in
the commodity is not necessary in order
TO render the combination one i'm re-
s,raint of trade" There is not an exist
ing trust or combination whose effect is

opinion Of the highest court does not

appear aS honour" favour" and Colour"
This fashion prevails also among station
ers, who, in their engraved invitations, ask
the honour" of your presence at specified
functions. The explanation in the first case
is that the publishers offer their books for
circulation in England and because Eng
lish readers do not like American spelling
cater to their taste at the risk of Offend
ing American readers who do not like Eng
ltsh spelling 1t is not a satisfactory eX-
planation We should have the courage as
a people, not only of our convictions, but
Of cur characteristics, our fashions and our
customs. Since We have elected to spell
honor without a ''u" books for English
consumption should omit that letter. In the
matter Of invitations the explanation is that
"honcur' is more elegant being English
you know" 1t is not more elegant or more
correct; its use is simply fad and an un>
lovely imitation of foreign usage. Honor
without the u" is a coed American word.
