ON TRUSTS AND COMBINES.
They Should Early Claim the Attention OF
Congress-The Law of 1890.

Combinations OF capital organized into
trusts to control the conditions of trade
among our citizens, to stihe competition,
limit production and determine the prices
of products used and consumed by the
people are Justly provoking public dis
cussion," Mr.. Mckinley states, land
should early claim the attention of con-
gress. The subject is one giving rise to
many divergent Views. 1t Is universally
conceded that combinations which en-
gross or control the market OF any par
ticular commodity, by suppressing natur-
al and ordinary competition, whereby
prices are unduly enhanced to the gem
eral consumer are obnoxious, not only
to the common law, but also to public
welfare. Whatever power the congress
possesses over this most important sub
ject should be promptly aseeitained and
asserted. An act to protect trade and
commerce against unlawful restraint and
monopolies was passed by congress en-
the pa of July, 1880. 1t declares every
contract or combination, or conspiracy
in the restraint of trade or commerce
among the several states or with foreign
nations, to be unlawful. 1t denomlnntes
as a criminal every person who makes
any such contract Of engages in any such
combination of conspiracy and provides
a punishment. The prosecution by the
United states Of offenses under the act or
1880 has been freqeuntly resorted to in the
federal courts, and notable efforts In the
restraint of interstate commerce, such as
the Transmlssouri Freight association and
the Joint Traffic association, have been
successfully opposed and suppressed.

work save by those engaged in it, and
those who stood looking on. The
three commissioners were all appar-
emily in good humor although Commits
