COURT DECISIONS ON TRUSTS
LAWYER Discusses the subject at Meet
InE of the Philosophical
society.

At the meeting Of the Philosophical So
ciety Sunday afternoon y. j. Boucher spoke
Of Some Court Decisions on Trusts" The
speaker said In part:
AT common law an agreement which
provided for a reasonable restraint of trade
would be enforced by the courts and all
such agreements were lawful in the sense
that restraint OF trade was not criminal
and the only notice taken of contracts
restraining trade unreasonably by the
courts was when a party to such contract
attempted to enforce It against the parties.
The court would then determine whether
the restraint was reasonable or unreason-
able and would enforce it or nullify 1t ac-
cordingly.
''The federal antitrust act of 1890 pro-
vided that all agreements in restraint Of
interstate commerce were illegal and might
be enjoined at the suit Of the government.
The earlier decisions in federal circuit
courts were that the act was an unreason-
able restraint of trade, but in 1897 in the
case OF the United states against the Trans
missouri Freight association the supreme
court held that the prohibitory provisions
of the act applied to all contracts in re-
straint Of interstate or foreign trade or
commerce, without exception or limitation
and were not conferred to those where the
restraint was unreasonable.
Some writer's say that this decision has
had the effect of driving competitive con-
Germs into one great corporation. where
before independent concerns had formed
combinations TO avoid competition. The
merger OF the packing house companies is
cited as an instance. This was the effect
of the state law in Nebraska upon the
Omaha ice companies.
1.-THE tendency of the decisions are to ex-
tend the operation of the federal statute
to agreements and contracts which earlier
were held not to be within it's terms and
to give the act of congress the full force
Of every reasonable intent. AS large cor
poration may absorb competing concerns
and in that way restrain trade without
violating the statute, this being practically
held by the supreme court in the sugar trust
case, further legislation is necessary to
meet this condition Of affairs If such con-
dltion is deemed to be detrimental"

The Sunday afternoon meeting Of the
Society for PhilanthrOpic Protest, at Ham

who said in part:
II have read and have had corrobOr-

this plan, like shoe string belts, ping pong

Deliberately, passionately and before

warn you that the time will come when
we will discern in this another invidious
attack upon the proper regulation OF

factor I'm the decentralization of our whole

For a woman without a hat is an
entity without Identification In this age
when architects all dream awful dreams
and work only while they are dreaming
we never know until the spiral ornaments

Cayuscs Costing SD Make Sixty Pounds
of Meat for Export.
The horse-pickling works at Linnton
will probably resume operations by the
middle of next month. This statement,
in face of the fact that Oregon cayuse
ponies are meeting a better demand
now than for many years, seems odd,
but it is true-and there is good reason
for it.
While 10000 OF more COW ponies have
gone from the ranges of Eastern Ore.
gon this year to supply the needs of the
British armies In South Africa, and
thousands are yet to so, and the price
paid has been very satisfactory to the
producer, the fact remains that great
numbers of scrub ponies are left on the
ranges-ornery, unbroken, intractable,
useless little brutes, consuming feed
that ought to so to the fattening of
meat cattle. The British army will take
smaller animals than will find ready
market elsewhere. but they must be
sound and well broken to ride. Thou.
sands of the cayuses will not meet
these specifications. Not only will they
not bring $35 each from the British, but
they are not wanted at any price-by
the British or anybody else. They are
either not sound of wind and limb, or
are untamable, or both. They are IL
drug on the market. They belong to
anybody who cares to put brand on
them. They are wild horses, and no.
body wants them: but each of these
be required for the sustenance of Il
steer that will dress 1000 pounds. The
stockmen want the range for their cat
tie, and the railroad companies are glad
to assist in taking the useless cayuse
ponies out of the country. so there will
be more room for stock that will yield
money to producers and carriers.
Therefore the railroads are willing to
make very low rate for carrying the
cayuses to the Linnton abattoir, and
the movement thither will soon be re-
sumed.
The average cayuse pony taken to the
Linnton abattoir yields only about sixty
pounds of merclantable meat, the rest

Cotton-Sccd Meal as n Fertilizer.
The plan Of using cotton seed in Yari.
our forms as fertilizer is not n de.
sirable practice. 1t is generally adj
mitted that we may add to the soils
fertility by the direct application of
several crops, the legumes, for exam.
pie, but in very many cases these crops
could be made to answer n double pur.
pose. This is the case with cotton seed
meal. If fed to the stock In small
quantities together with roughage of
almost any kind, 1t will be beneficial
to the animals and still lose none of its
manurial value. All sorts of plans may
be tried in soil fertilization but the fact
still remains that the best results are
obtained, all things considered, when
stock is used in connection with farm.
Ing. That many dairy farms do not
pay is admitted. but. on the other
hand, there are few farms that are
profitable If stock is not kept on them
Regular farming is meant. not truck
raising. Further. and this has been
demonstrated time and again, there Is
no farm used for general work that
would not be more profitable If more
stock was added up to the number that
could be supported from the farm.

KAISER w,LHELM's UNIFORMS.
He Has Two Complete Outfits of
Everything TO Wear.


Kaiser Wilhelm. as is we'll known.
is the honorary commander of dozen
different regiments in his own army
and as many more in the other armies
OF Europe. He hold several actual and
honorary commissions in different
fleets; belongs to numerous orders of
military and civil distinction, and to
other organizations which have re.
galias that must be worn on cere.
monial occasions. Hence, when he
visits foreign country, or is travel
ing about his own domains, he never
knows what uniforms and regalia he
may need, and, therefore, must carry
large quantity of baggage. He has
two complete outfits of everything,
one of which is usually kept on the i'm.
perial yacht Hohenzollern and the
other in a baggage or wardrobe car,
built especially for the purpose, and
part of his private railway train.
The master of the robes, assisted
by several Wallets, has charge of the
emperor's wardrobe, and when the
train is in motion can produce at an
instant's notice any uniform or re.
gala in which he may desire to appear
at the next station. If he happens to
be passing through garrison town
where one of his favorite regiments
is stationed it pleases them and it
pleases him to greet the officers and
men from the platform of his care in
the same uniform they are wearing.
If he crosses the border of another
country it is considered compliment
for him to dress in the uniform of
the army or navy of that country.
Hence it is important to have his
wardrobe car with him on all his jour-
neys.-Modern Society.
