Owing to the fact that the CON
trollers for the new interurban cars
were shipped from the General Elec-
trio company's works at Schenectady,
n. u, by freight instead of express,
there is no way of finding out where
they are or when they will arrive in
Moline. For this reason there is no
possible way of telling how soon the
line Will open. If it takes as long for
the controllers to arrive as it did for
the cars. the opening will not take
place for quite Il few days.

file Of the republican party ought
to know the same thing.
The only sane solution of the
trust problem lies in destroying
the supremacy and control of the
party which created and fostered
these unlawful combinations-the
party that pays its campaign ex-
penses with money contributed by
the trusts-Me republican party!
This can be done by voting the
democratic ticket, and it can be
done in no otner way. The year
1902 is most excellent time tc
begin the good work, with a view
to its thorough completion in 1904.

REPUBLICAN INCONSISTENCY,

The republicans of Pennsylvania met the
trust issue in exactly the same spirit as the
republicans of Maine. They re-affirmed 'un-
Of protective tariff" and deprecated amy
suggestion under existing circumstances Of
general revision of the tariff laws" In the
next section of their platform they heartily
approve the action Of the president and attor-
ney general in instituting proceedings to
check the growth of unlawful combinations
intended to raise the price Of commodities at
the expense OF the consumer. Boston Jour
nal (rep.).
Yes, the republicans of Maine
met the trust question in exactly
the same spirit as the republicans
of every other state-they did not
meet it at all nor do they want to
or dare to do so. They all re-
affirm their "unswerving loyalty to
the republican principle of a pro-
tective tariff one t'republi-
can principle" that is responsible
for the creation and existence Of
nineteen out of every twenty trusts
in this country today. THE UNION
is gratifed, however, to see the
opposition admit the fact that this
trust-breeding policy is "repub-
!ican principle"-it is.
But after these unlawful combin-
atoms have been brought into be-
ing through the benehcent influ-
ence Of this Republican princi-
pie, the representative of the par
i ty which creates them turn in to
throttle their own Ubiquitous off
spring! At least, they make a
play to hoodwink the people, but
even while engaged in this piece
of political jugglery they oppose
even the suggestion Of any gen
eral revision of the existing tariff
laws" democratic principle, !"
if you please, and the one thing
necessary to end this era of trust
robbery and defiance Of law.
If there has even been more
rankly inconsistent piece Of politi-
cal jugglery than the present adj
ministration's prosecution Of
trusts, The UNION would like to
have someone point it out. And
for a specimen Of political hypoc-
risy, the attitude Of the republican
party on this issue stands without
/ 8 parallel on earth or off Of it.

Observation-Disclosures FIAsco.

hS quickly DIS the tate session OF
congress had-closed--even before
the fnger-marks Of Bailey of Texas
had had time to disappear from the
neck of Beveridse-- republican
press of the country heralded forth
the charming bit of information
that "at the next session" the re-
publican party would annihilate
the trusts; that President Roose-
welt had left the framing of the bill
to Representative Littlefeld of
Maine. What called for this an
nouncement7 Nothing more nor
less than the mere fact that the
congressional elections occur this
year and something must be said
to pull the wool over the eyes of
the people and allay puplic hos.
tility toward the trusts. If this
can be done, it means republican
success at the coming elections
that was all. That tells why the
announc ement was made at this
time.
But if there was any sincerity
back Of it, THE UNION would ask
why it has been necessary to wait
until "the next session." Roose-
welt was in the chair and back Of
him stood both houses of congress
safely republican, so why was the
task OF trust-crushing not attended
tor Either the president knew he
dared not trust the republican SEN
ators and congressman to enact
the needed antitrust legislation, or
else his own "hostility" to unlaw-
Iful combinations is being made
