ABOUT The one political ques.
TRUSTS ton of greatest mons
ent today, the one which
interests the people most and the one
which the Democrats seem most like
ly to adopt as an issue. is that of the
trusts. What to do with them and
how to prevent them from encroach
ing upon private rights by the de"
struction of competition and the
limitation of supply is the problem
that must confront the statesmen of
both parties, and it is one not so easy
of solution as the Democrats would
make it appear. With Republican
administration and congress of course
it is the policy of the Democrats to
make the question appear simple and
easy, SO that in the event of a failure
on the pa1t of the administration and
congress to pick out and curb the
noxious trusts it may be charged to
incapacity or collussion with trust
promoters. This as will be readily
seen, is the motive back of the major
portion of the drivel that finds it's
way into the Democratic press. It is
the simple and very natural desire to
put the Republican party in hole.
The Democrats made the trust ques-
ton one of the paramount issues dur
ing. the 1900 campaign, but even
then they did not take pains to say
how they were going to ''Down With
he Trusts" They simply appealed
o popular prejudice against an un.
popular institution which had grown
lip under the protection of the con
titution and the laws, snd: which it
vas universally conceded could be
maintained until constitutional
or drastic Legislation
hould enable the people to get at
hem.
