The Republican party, now as
always, is unalterably opposed to
all trusts and combinations having
for their purpose the sitting of
competition and arbitrarily con-
trolling production or fixing prices.
It will be noted that the "now as
always" clause utterly fails to ex-
plain how or why the trust has
reached it's perfection under the ex-
listing administration; nor does the
resolution convey hint of why the
Republican party maintains pro-

lower price abroad. The people
are taking notes of little things like
these.-Wheeling Register.

Republican leaders who express
confidence in the election of Mr..
Mckinley are doubtful about the
results of the congressional cleo
tions. It is in these elections the
voters will have a chance to pay off
scores on such crimes as imperial
ism and the trusts. 1t is remem-
bored that the Republicans were
able to save the House by only
ID majority in the election follow
ing the end of the Spanish war,
and the popular drift has been
against the party in power ever
since. The Democrats have only
to hold their own and gain dozen
districts to give them a substantial
majority in the lower branch of the
57th Congress; and popular dis
satisfaction over the treatment of
Porto Pico and the administrations
course respecting the Philippines,
along with the angry feeling
aroused by the aggressions and ma
nipulations of oapitalistic combi-
nations, promise to make it extreme
ly difficult for the administration
to continue it's control of the pop
ular branch of Congress. The
Senate of course will remain Re-
publican. 1t will take four years
to change that branch under most
favorable circumstanccs-Pitts-
