The trusts themselves are the most
active instigators of discussion of this
question: How shall these great com
binations of capital be controlled in the
public interest?
Every trust that is pillaging the peo-
pie gets its power TO do so from mo-
nopoly. Monopoly is rooted in special
privilege. The Coal Trust, for exam
pie, has an absolute mastery of the
market for anthracite because it owns
the coal fields and the railroads that
carry the coal. To attack the trust In
the courts on the complaint that 1t
has not been formed in strict compli-
ance with the technical requirements
of the law Is to be interested in the
make of highwayman's pistol rather
than in Its shooting capacity, it's power
to enforce the orders of Glands up,"
And to rally public opinion for protest
against the Coal Trusts rapacity and
arrogance is but to roar against effects
while ignoring causes.
Why" asks so conservative jour
nal as the Springfield Republican,
why should exclusive private monop-
oily of natural resources so essential to
the life and industry of the people as
coal be suffered to exist?" And every
body who can think asks why rail
roads, which ought to be common car
riers, treating all shippers equally,
should be suffered to be used by the
trusts to X. off competition.
So we see the country coming to an
understanding of the elementary truth
that, as private ownership of natural
resources and of the means of transport
tation inevitably results in the creation
of monopolies, the effective way to deal
with monopOlies must be to strike at
the private ownership of natural re-
sources and thu railroads.
The Coal Trust and the Food Trust
are just now the leading schoolmasters
of the American people. The educa-
ton in clear thinking about fundamen-
tai economics which they are giving is
of the very highest value. 1t is sure to
bear fruit ultimately In thorough going

A Democratic House Needed.

With the increased representation in
the next House of Congress 1t will re-
quire 1914 members to make majority.
There are now 1856 Democrats In the

those thirty eight seats. A careful re-

districts as they are now formed, and
in spite of recent Republican gerry

The Republican State convention in
Ohio, personally engineered and con-
trolled by Senator Mark Hanna, chair
man Of the Republican national COM
mittee, Is conceded to have furnished
the keynote for the next presidential
campaign. AT that convention Gov.
Nash. who is Senator Hanna's official
representative In Ohio, made the
speech which Is supposed to outline
Republican policy. Here is one of the
things he said:
Corporations should not be looked
upon as the enemies of the people, but
us their friends, capable of still fur
ther development and making useful
the great resources of our State and
giving to labor remunerative employ
ment and to capital safe Investment.
The last Legislature looked with
friendly spirit upon the presence of
corporations in Ohio. 1t believed that
they should be fostered and encouras-
ed, and not fought as the common enc
mics of mankind"

also be accepted as due and timely no
tice that the Republican party has no
intention Of abandoning those interests
from which it drew its $6.O0O,OOO cam
