Mr.. McKinley's "tweedledum- and
tweedledee" talk to congress on trusts
has encouraged several admins
tration organs to declare that the trust
issue is settled. "It will be out of the
reach of the Democratic platform max
ers," say these Republican press proph-
cts "The Republicans will take charge
of the trust problem, and the people will
be satisfied with their solution of it,"
Congressman Grosvenor, however who
is the mouthpiece of the administration
in the house, has already punctured all
these vaccinations concerning Republi-
can 'ttrust busting" with federal weap-
ons. "I am states-rights man," he
declares, "in this trust matter, and the
United States has stretched its statutory
powers to the limit in legislating against
the trusts, in the Sherman act"
Griggs, Mr.. McKinley's New Jersey
encouragement, talks in the same
strain as Grosvenor. Trusts operating

coal oil trust, for example, cannot, &C.
