unYAN,s REMEDY FOR THE Trust
EVIL.

In answer 20 questions by the New YORK
Herald Mr.. Bryan named the iesal rem
ea,es he would recommend for smashing
the trusts They are as follows
"First-Enforce the demand in the Dem
ocretic platform for legislation which VIII
Mace trust-made articles on the free
list.
..second-Provide by law that before
any corporation organized Ia any state
shal, do business outside of that state. It
shall be granted license by the Federal
government.
'-rhlrci-Provide that the license OF a
corporation doing interstate business be
forfeited the moment the corporation at
temp,s to monopolze any branch Of bus
inees."
In connection with Mr.. Bryan's answer
she Herald published interviews with a
number of well known lawyers TO the e.
feet that the proposed remedies would
not accomplish the object aimed at
some Of them raisea one objection and
some Of them another The most seri-
Gus objection was TO the second remedy.
for che reason that II would take from
the states rights which they have-that
Il would tend strongly towards the Re
publican doctrine of Capitalization. But
the fact mus not be overlooked that OBJ
ieotions would be raised to any remedy
that might be proposed
The difference between Mr.. Bryan's 20
sitlon IN respect 60 trusts and that OF Mr..
Mckinley IL that the former has plan
for dealing with them and that the latter
has none Afr. Bryan shows that he Is
IN earnest. while there Is no evidence
that AIR. Mckinley proposes to do any
thing To protect the people against trusts.
In fact, AIR Hanna, who he the spokes-
man for MIR. Mckinley. says there are no
srusts-that -. such trusts as the govern
ment Is called upon 60 destroy. IL MIR.
Bryan should be elected there would BE-
an earnest EFFORT 90 get rid OF the trust
evil. while IL Mr.. Mckinley should be
given another term trusts would have
everything their own way just as they
have now Il - openly charged that the
reason the Republican party does moi
take a more decided stand against trusts
Is that Il is drawing heavily upon them
| for money with which TO conduct It's cam
paign. II this gauge IL well founded the
country would be more trust-rldden dur

KENTuoKY NAV CAUSE TROUBLE.

KENTUCKY MAY CAUSE TROUBLE.
Kentucky has enacted an elecsion law
TO take the place OF che Goebel law. but
II n not 10 so into effect until after the
presidential election. II is unfortunate
that the law was not enacted soon enough
for the approaching election TO he held
under n. Several months sgo We pointed
out that the presidential election might
DO 81 close that the result would depend
on the election In Kentucky. And n that
should be the case. and that state should
give Mr.. Bryan "A small majority. 81 IL
almost certain that che Republicans would
dispute the result and carry the election
into Congress- They would insist that the
election IN Kentucky was not fair one
that IA had been carried by the Democrats
by unfair means.
The chances are OF course that Mr.. Bry-
an viii carry Kentucky by such ma
iority that there viii he no grounds for
disputing his right TO les electoral vote
but, assuming thas he win carry the state.
his majority may be small. Tho feeling
between the parties there IL extremely
bitter. and the Republicans. as well as
tho Democrats are going TO make extra
ordinary efforts TO elcct their ticket
The Democrats have practically admit
ted that the law Is an unfair one by re-
pealng Il. To that extent they have fur
uished the Republicans with an argument
IN the event that the right 10 the states
electoral vote should he contested. And
Il looks as II che Kentucky quarrel would
get into national politics even n there
should DC no dispute over the electoral
vote. There Is almost certain 20 be- con-
tests between candidates for Congress,
some Of che districts are pretty evenly
divided between the Democratic and Re
publican parties II there Is chance
for "a contest a defeated candidate for Con-
grcss Is pretty certain 20 take g. And
the Republicans would court contest
Of that kind IN order 60 get chance 90
attack the Goebel law n Cor no other ren-
son. IL is to be regretted for more rea-
sons than one that the new law does not
go into eject until after the presidential
election.

NEW FIELD ron POLITICAL
CLUBS.

II g. refreshing 20 read resolutions passed
by political club calling for gtreet
ana other improvements BY the municipal
authorities in the locality o. the resi-
dcnces OF the members OF the club. We
refer particularly 10 the resolutions
passed By the Southside Administ ration
Club at its meeting on last Tuesday night
There Is need for improvements "a the
southern section Of the city, and n there
are TO be any improvements there the
citizens OF that section will have to see 70
e that a municipal administration u
chosen that will favor such improvements.
and that will use the public money
for paving streets. putting down water
mains. planting trees and extending the
IRE Department rather than creating new
Offices 20 make places for political friends
and helpers.
The true mission OF political clubs IN
cities should be 10 see that there Is econ
omy IN the spending OF the public money,
and that a. large a part Of the revenues
az possible Is put into public improve
monts Why should citizens form clubs
simply to aid some particular person to
get an ofiioog The person 50 aided does
not care rap for the members OF the
club after he has obtained the ONCE he
desired. Let the political clubs give more
time 10 the needs OF the city In the way
Of improvements. Let them insist upon
having every dollar OF tho eitys money
20 spent that the public viii get the ben
cht Of f. Let them demand that the city's
welfare rather than that OF political favor
ties shall be the first consideration. II
political clubs will make this their work
we shall see improvements not only In
the southside section. but also In every
other section OF the city.
