Trusts in Politics.

The Philadelphia Ledger calls upon
the Republicans to act and act vigor-
ously in taking steps to check the trusts.
1t calls the attention Of it's party to the
fact that recent Democratic victories in
municipal elections are due to growing
opposition to the trust evil and to the
belief that Republicans are responsible,
The Ledger is right. The Democrats
are trying to get a copyright on the
antitrust policy, ignoring the fact that
the only president they have had since
the war fell into line with m%onopolies so
well that he became rich suddenly and
all of his cabinet secured wealth and
fine corporation positions. They also
forget that the greatest and most OPP
pressive trust in this country, the
Standard Oil company, is run by Demo-
Gratis and that the Republican state of
Ohio is making a great fight to sup
press it for the benefit of the country at
large.
The Supreme court of the United
States has decided against trusts when
there has been a conflict. The Repub-
lican party passed an antitrust law in
congress against the opposition of cor
porations, and will doubtless pass more
radical measures yet.
Meantime the Democratic party is
seeking to make the people believe that
it is the only organization that opposes
trusts. 1t is well for the Republican
party to be heard on this subject at
every corner.
While the trust question is one of
business, so is the tariff and the former
must be involved in politics the anne as
the latter, for political parties bring
about business improvement or depres-
sion by controlling legislation.
1t can scarcely be doubted that if the
present tidal wave of trade combina-
tions had been foreseen by Republican
leaders when that bill was under con-
sideration, Mr.. Dingley and his associ-
ates on the ways and means committee
would have put an antitrust section in
the original draft. As it is, an amend
ment is in order.

who followed those journals are not
content with the result.
Nauqht TO Fear.

The fear expressed by anti-eNpan-
sionists that America is undertaking a
terrible task in trying to establish a gov
eminent in the Philippine islands and in
becoming responsible therefor, is cal
euIatcd to give the people Of Great Bri-
tain and Europe generally a poor
opinion of the courage of the American
people in regard to matters of this char
acter. Happily the nation can not be

that have conquered the country. En-
gllshmen have learned how to defer to

govern the Filipinos as successfully as
the English do the people of India.

No Terms TO Be Permitted.

General Otis is only carrying out
American practices in refusing to make
terms with the rebels who are asking for
peace, but wishing to make terms of
their own. American generals do not
buy victories in that way, though when
surrender is made the vanquished are
always treated generously. The com
mander in the Philippines is too good a
soldier to sit down and let his advantages
in the present military situation be fritz
tered away while the insurgents take a
few weeks in which to recuperate or
parley among themselves as to surrender.
There is an army assembled at the
call of a rebel leader and at his beck
they would lay down their arms and &C.
cept the %leniency of the Americans.
They began the attack with the design
to make themselves the supreme power
in the land. There is no government in
the islands except that set up by the
American forces at the destruction of
the Spanish sovereignty of the Philip
pines. To recognize the band of con-
spirators whom Aguinaldo controls and
calls a congress would be foolish and
violate the precedents set. The so-called
congress is composed of men appointed
by the dictator to do his bidding. If he
must capitulate it is right that he should
be made to do so personally and not to
hide behind his creatures, for his power
should be so completely destroyed that
he can not again fire the natives to a
rebellious point. If he could escape the
odium of surrender he would pose as a
martyr who might have succeeded had
not the alleged congress decided against
further combat. The Filipino leader
can not but submit. He is playing for
time. but the end is near. His threat
to keep up a campaign that is destroy

THE WEST THE BULWARK,

We believe that the next few years
will see an immense amount of money
invested in the west. Communities will
be built up where now there are deserts.
Mines will be opened, and there will be
cities in mountain valleys which are
now solitudes. New lines of industry
will be developed. The actual value of
property in the country west of the
Mississippi will be far greater than the
sum of it's present value, with the sums
of the investments added. A new value
will have been created, and it will be a
solid and lasting value.
The opportunities of the west are vast
enough to absorb money than can
be coaxed from the capitalists by the
promises of the trust promoters. The
possible profit from investments in west
ern projects is enough to make up the
losses of stock spectators, so that more
fortunate investors will not be moved to
panic. In other words, actual values
can be constructed to Offset the load of
fictitious values which is accommodating
on the money markets. This is the OPP
portunity of the west.

Postmaster General Smith recently
declared that this government wants no
alliance with another nation. The
statement has no particular importance,
except that it comes from a member of
the presidents official family, and there
fore indicates that the administration
would not foster a proposition of this
character. But no one has ever accused
the president of not being as intensely
American as the average citizen. While
there was a feeling of national pride
when England took such sudden fancy
for America and Americans. and some
of the prominent Britons with an eye to
business thought it wise to have a com
pact with a nation that might support
Great Britain in her eastern policy, the
average American never laid aside his
feeling that this nation can best work
out her own destiny without IN alliance
with any foreign power. The English
people themselves probably never felt a
desire to make any definite agreement
with this government. Though some of
the politicians wei there e%ffervesced on
the subject, there was no corresponding
ebullition on this side of the ocean
among public men.

RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE WAR.
New York Sun.l

General Harrison G. Otis, who has
just returned from Manila, brings the
responsibility for the instruction home
to the anti-expansionists and the Demo-
cratic party in a way that is convincing.
He says that Aguinaldo and his faction
chad watched the opposition in the
United States to expansion and to the
army reorganization bill, and said to
themselves that the army proper was
composed of only $4,000 men, the rest
being sure to go home when the treaty
was signed, while many of the $4,000
would be in Cuba and elsewhere. They
reasoned that they could raise 10000 or
so, 900 men and thus overwhelm the
Americans with sheer force of num-
bers." No thinking man has doubted
from the first at whose door the respon-
sibility lay, but the conviction that
''moulders of opinion like Senator
George L. Hoar, Senator Eugene Hale,
Arthur Puc German and Edward At
kinson brought on the deplorable con
tlict by appeals akin to treason and, in
the case of German, by unpatriotic par
tisan scheming, has received emphatic
affirmation from General Harrison G..
Otis, who has studied the situation on
the spot and has been behind the scenes,
as it were.

The b~enevolence of the trusts fails to
appear in the action of many of them,
Their defenders say that they reduce
prices to consumers by the practice of
economy and the elimination of I'M
necessary labor. The News has already
shown that the economy" and the
elimination are not practiced at the
expense of the trusts. But most of the
trusts do not share eve a portion of
their advantage from ECONOMY" and
elimination with the They

yet raise the prices charged for their

GOOD FOR HI WEST.
(Houston, Tex, Post.)

Leading 1inanciers and capitalists
throughout the country are predicting
the general fall of the rate of interest at
an early day in the south and west as
we'll as the price Of loaned money is al
ready noted in the great majority of the
states. with the tendency still down
wards.
1t is inevitable that as q country fills
up and becomes more and more devel-
oped and its interests diversified, money
must become more plentiful and easier
to be obtained. High rates Of interest
are generally found in new countries,
where the question of %permanency of
growth Is still doubtful and investments
are yet regarded risky. Age of a section
as of a business brings confidence. All
portions Of this great country now have
passed their stage of ''newness' and of
experimental business. Interest has
been coming down, too, as might have
been naturally anticipated.

that if Captain C~oghlan's remarks had

REPUBLICANS AFTER TRUSTS.

The most prominent Republican jour
mails of the country, as well as the most
protectionists in the party, are
advocating the policy of placing on the
free list every article that is controlled
by a trust and the price of which has
been ordinarily raised by such combina-
ton. So strong has this sentiment be-

ought the country, that it is very gener-
ally believed that the next congress will
lose no time in carrying such a policy
into effect.
