No State Law Against Trust.
Daily Picayune.

The Supreme Court of the Uni
ted States yesterday declared un-
constitutional the Illinois State
Statute prohibiting all combina-
tions and trusts to monopolize or
control or restrain trade, on the
ground that its prohibitions did
not extend to the cornering or
controlling or monopolizing the
trade in agricultural products,
when carried on by farmers. Un-
der the Illinois law, farmers could
form trusts to deal in their own
products, while all other trusts
were prohibited. The Court de-.
clares that in its prohibition, the
law must make no exceptions.
This decision, as a matter of
course, applies to all State anti
trust laws which make similar ex-
ceptions. The Louisiana State
antitrust law of 1892 falls under
the decision, because, while prohi-
biting all trusts in commerce,
manufacturing and transportation,
it makes the following exceptions:
"That the provisions of the act
shall not apply to agricultural pro-
ducts or live stock, while in the
hands of the producer or raiser,
nor be so confirmed as to affect any
combination or confederation of
labors, for the purpose of procur-
ing an increase in their wages or
redress of grievances" Apparent
ly farmers and stock raisers and
laborers' trusts are to be included
in any prohibitory legislation, and
the State laws, being declared null,
there is no law against trusts in
this or any State whose statute
possesses the defect mentioned.

Chairman Liable called our at
tention to the fact that the word
Democrat" was left out in the
copy furnished US, of the resolu-
tions of the parish committee, and
that the second paragraph should
have read 'That Democratic pri-
mary. "'instead of "That a ,pri-
mary. =" But this correction
does not change the qualification
Of the voters, we know it to be a
Democratic primary, under Dem
ocratic auspices, but if it was not
the intention of the committee to
invite all white men to vote at the
primary they would have framed
the resolution to suit their ideas,
they had the power to limit the
qualification to only tried Demo
Gratis, but they wanted to be liber-
al and allowed all white men to
vote regardless of their past poll
ticsl affiliation, or mistakes. and
this was done more with the idea
of roping in the bolters then with
the idea of getting Republican
vote for the regular Democrats,
and they have passed a resolution
to that effect, which is, in our
opinion, perfectly clear, and which
says exactly what was intended by
the committee.
