It's up to the People.

Less than a year remains in which
to gather facts, and information that
will influence your vote for the next
president of the United States.
That grievous wrongs have been
committed, and grave errors allowed
to exist without effort at correction, is
evidenced by the speech, writings, and
comments Of eminent statesmen and
jurists; congressman and leading men
Of business; professors and clergymen
in every state.
Party affiliations have been ignored
in the outcry against thrusting aside
the safeguards Of our fathers and rush.
ing pell-mell into the affairs Of Europe.
The situation is a deplorable one if
not alarming; as is also our domestic
affairs dominated by gigantic Trusts.
The evils are not Of spontaneous
growth They are the result Of years
Of labor and expenditure Of millions
Of dollars Beginning with the dis
placement Of American silver for
English gold, the cunning Of Eng

quently called attention to each and
every move as it was Transporting, and
during the campaign Of 1900 will
present its readers with a truthful
array Of facts that will be extremely
interesting and startling.
No fair-minded American, be he
Republican, Democrat or Of other
political faith, can afford at this critical
time to ignore the truth. Partisan
prejudice, with the Trusts as dictators,
is far more degrading slavery than
that which existed previous to the Civil
War Of '6I-64.
Trusts in the United States alone
have a representative capital greater
than all the gold and silver in the
world. These will spend many more
millions Of dollars to suppress truth
and facts and mislead all who fail to
look beyond their plausible decep-
tons. Read the Enquirer and you
will be able to discern the truth and
combat falsehood. A victory for
Trusts and the Mckinley Admins
tration in 1900 will end the era Of
greatest good to greatest number.

To the Editor of the vlrginian-P Pilot:
The legality OF imposing n maximum
charge for telephone service never hay
inS been doubted. as indeed it could
not be- the question before the public
is as to the propriety OF doing so, and
this article has been prompted by
views expressed by many of our coun-
cilmcn TO the effect that we should re-
~ upon competition to relieve us from
extort!on in this line.
The many trusts existing in this
country are but illustrations of how
competition has played out as an ac-
tive force TO insure reasonable prices
in many lines OF industry. a wcll-in-
trenched trust very seldom fears COM
petition. but 1t always fears prices linz
tied upon 4 reasonable basis.
Furthermore. contrary to the general
belief. competition is not always desir-
able as II frequently means n useless
waste OF capital. and; as WAS enunci
ated a few years ago by the highest
court OF the State of New York. 1t may
be carried on TO such an extent as to
become general evil Let us take
TOT example this very subject OF tele-
phone. In many OF our cities the high
charges for the old telephone have
been The cause Of new telephone COM
panies starting up. Two such compa-
MES In a city cause double expense for
poles. wires and central Offices. The
efficiency of telephone service is les
sened by the division of subscribers
between the two, and each are at al
most the same expense for small as
for large list OF subscribers. TO al
low the companies reasonable profit,
their charges must be higher than
would be necessary than with q single
telephone system. The public would,
therefore he better off without COM
petition If reasonable rates wers assured
ard az opportunity for eriortion ,oere
eliminated
At this point some one will ask how,
without competition. can the quality OF
the service he expected to be improved
and kept abreast OF the times? Tho
answer Is simple. Under our decisions
the public cannot limit the prices so as
TO cause the company q loss but may
limit 1t 50 as 10 permit the company to
earn only very small proft--say one
half or per cent. This being the case,
IL is easy 10 perceive how the public
can encourase ana insure good service
according TO the iiberality OF the prof.
they allow
Already We have here laws limiting
tho charces for hacks. mills. canals,
ferries. turnpikes. SOME OF the tele-
FHohes railroads. street cars and
nawnbrokera These laws have been
found necessary TO prevent extortion.
If our counci.men are right in their
theory that competition is the best
Iorce for tho public to rely on TO pro-
teot them from extortion. then hacks,
miiis ferries. pawnbrokcrs. sc. should
Dc ieft Tree 10 charge whatever they
please.
In addition to the foregoing. the
usury laws Of the several States afford
familiar example OF legislation to
: prevent eyfortion AS no ono has pro-
posed to repca! these laws. we scarcely
realize Their popularity In but a few
OIL the states. and these generally the
