1t is manifest that any trust legislation
to be effective should be accompanied by
a more effective control over railway
rates by the federal government, an en-
largement of the powers of the inter
state commerce commission, and limiting
railways to the conduct of transportation
for which they are organized.
More than all other national questions
with which we have to deal, should the
one presented By the trust problem be
placed above party consideration. The
sentiment Of the American people is
unanimous that it should be dealt with
directly. promptly, fearlessly. not in any
spirit of blind. irrational prejudice, but
with an enlightened public policy that
uses all the power lodged in government
against wrongful usurpation Of inherent
right IF that does not make the nation
supreme, it must be clothed with author
ity that will make it So Any other po-
sitiOn is inconsistent with the preserva-
ton of national integrity and the rights
guaranteed TO every citizen.

They ignore the fact that the organiza-
ton Of trusts and combinations began but
few years ago and are fast gaining
control Of business everywhere. They are
not confined 10 any country, or the on
spring of any tariff policy. They rule
the market in free trade products IA
this country, and il whatever products
they choose in free trade countries. But
the fact remains at the organization Of
combinations of 4pital great enough to
master the production and fix the price

tariff schedules. brings upon that system
the popular disapproval which the public
entertains toward trusts generally.
First Principles.
In these days Of marvellous financial
and commercial evolution of colossal COM
binations Of capital, such as the world
has never before known, il Is well TO
recall first principles. Every writer on
protection. every tariff leader in Con-
f,ress and before the country, placed free
c1mpetition between protected industries
as a necessary complement 10 a p-0tec-
tive tariff.
Vernon County censor. [volume] (Viroqua, Wis.) 1865-1955, 1902-10-08

and the true measure of protective
duty today is the difference between the
cost of production in this and the com
peting country A tariff that is either
higher or lower than that, should not
be called a protective tariff If it is
higher. it is 1rohibitory; if it is lower.
IL is not protective.
