KNOX AND THE TRUSTS.
L A. Coolidge in the September Nc
ClureS.


For twenty years he was one of the
most successful corporation lawyers in
the United States. His personal re-
tainers amounted to 100000 a year.
When Mr.. Mckinley asked him to be-
come Attorney. General in 1897 he de-
clined, because he couldn't afford to
exchange personal income of $780,
900 Tor a salary Of $4,000 and a car
rage. When the offer was renewed
four years later he was better able to
make the sacrifice, and he accepted
Then the labor organizations opposed
his confirmation because they thought
he was the tool of trusts. But he
isn't afraid of labor unions.
Knox was Carnegie's attorney dur
ing the Homestead riots of 1892. His
ingenuity steered the ironmaster
through the perilous legal complica-
tions of those days. 1t was he to
whom it first occurred that the riotous
strikers were open to the charge of
treason for violent resistance to the
state. He was acting then as a law
yer, faithful to the corporation which
he served. In bringing suit against
the trusts he believes he served with
equal fairness his only remaining eli
ent-the Government of the United
States. For Knox is lawyer all
through. He has all a lawyers intu-
itions and instincts. Today he is the
attorney for the government, just as
for years he was the attorney for
wealthy private corporations - with
this difference, that when he served
private corporations he had many eli
ents. After he entered the service OF
the United States he regarded his sal
airy as an exclusive retainer.
