A DaY of TruSt Discussion

Truly. the season is not altogether fruit
less In regard to the public desire for the
regulation of the trusts. Yesterday we had
three important contributions TO the thought
upon the subject, a length and able speech
by Senator Hoar upon his own BILL a care
fully prepared letter by Attorney General
Knox to Senator Hoar and Representative
Littleheld giving his views as 10 the d. SRA
BILE course of antitrust legislation and a
brief but characte-istically direct speech by
Senator Vest on the coal question with
pointed incidental references TO the trust
evils. As far as debate and the statement
o. views was concerned yesterday was well
worth the recording
The Attorney General takes the distinct
ground that the people desire regulation and
not destruction of trusts. In this he is
doubtless correct as regards the thinking
population of the country. There are some
individuals or bodies of citizens, to be sure
clamorous for the utter demolition of the
trusts. But President Roosevelt has
clearly pointed out that 1t is impossible to
prevent the operation of the Commemorative
principle in trade, and that the duty of the
hour is to devise a legal means of segre-
eating the unwholesome trusts from the
wholesome and of Furnishing and restricting
the powers of the former. To this end Mr..
Knox addresses himself and his product Is

needs OF the occasion. not specifically out

to distribute their stocks Of coal without

to distribute their stocks Of coal without
favoritism and without extortion.
The feeling among the people grows from
day to day that the present high prices
charged locally for coal are unwarranted.
1t is known that large quantities Of Read
ing coal are entering Washington, and are
supposed to be retailed for $7.25 ton.
Nevertheless the $12 rate prevails in so
many instances, being quoted by the larg-
est dealers in the city. that 1t is rare that
the sale Of coal at the lower Reading rate
is to be heard of from the consumers. The
people are asking what becomes Of the
Reading coal.
Each wintry reminder such as today
brings the responsibilities Of the coal
merchants more sharply to a focus. 1t is
absolutely certain that If anthracite coal is
maintained at $12 a. ton-which means $14
a ton in quarter-ton lots-many hundreds
of people In this city, if not thousands, will
suffer keenly. because they can not pos
sibly afford to buy fuel at such rate.
Their sufferings will. Of course, be relieved
as far as possible by the charitable people
of the capital, who are able to give to
such cause but this fact. this measure
of assurance against great public disaster
which is not an absolute assurance-will
not warrant any extortionate charging
There must be honest dealing all round.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1903-01-07

able 1t to proceed without delay upon oc-
casion to enforce its laws against such dis
elimination.
Senator Hoar spoke hopefully Of the So
luton Of the trust problem. He, too, views
the aggregation Of capital as thing not
necessarily evil. but capable Of being made
so. His charge against the trust Is that 1t
brushes competition and thereby controls
prices often to public detriment. that 1t
substitutes corporations for individuals In
the responsible management of the giant
affairs of the world today, that 1t dis
courages local pride and leads to absentee
ownership. He accused the trusts OF fraud
in their capitalization, of excessive secrecy
Of operation and of constituencies adher-
ence to the rigid rules of money-getting re-
CARELESS of the higher principles OF human
existence. Remedies. he thinks, can be
found, and his own prescription he urges
upon the consideration of Congress as
reaching the malevolent symptoms of the
trust disease.
Senator Vests ire was reused by the ex-
tortionate price charged for coal and ne
demanded a repeal of the tariff on anthra-
cite, which. he declares. is tax upon the
fuel user, especially at such times as this,
when an emergency permits the domestic
producer to mulct the public. incidentally
Mr.. Vest coupled the question of tariH
revision and that of trusts. with only u
suggestion however, Of his old-time fire
and vlgor. But unfortunately his appeal
was partisan being Indictment OF the
republican party. The trust question Will
reach it's closest approach to satisfactory
solution through the joint efforts of both
parties. 1t must be studied as legal
problem. demanding the most scrupulous
care and taxing the utmost Ingenuity of the
countrys greatest minds. -:,.-. .,.-
With republican Attorney General voiC-
ing the demand of a republican President
for trust regulation along constructive, con-
sentative and not destructive lines, with
one of the ablest lawyers in the Senate adj
dressing himself to the question with
specific measure which in large degree
meets the Attorney Generals recommends
tions, there is reason for believing that
progress is making. that the question is
becoming less difficult as it Is approached
in a spirit of calm investigation. Only in
such a spirit can the country attain its
present desires of rational, effective. perma-
nent trust regulation which will preserve
the principle of competition. permit the
association of capital and preclude the pos
sibility of artificial price increases.

Mr.. Roosevelt and 1904.

The following appears in Washington
dispatch in today's Philadelphia Press:
tMr. President do not know that my
appointment would bring you a single del
egate within my district or state, is the
remark a gentleman made to the President
few days ago when asking for an office
in one of the southern states.
And l do not care whether 1t would or
not is the answer Mr.. Roosevelt Is said to
have given. If my administration Is not
successful enough to get me delegates do
not want to win them in any other way"
Surely we have heard enough of the alb
surd charge that the President is shaping
his course in southern affairs so as to Sc
cure votes from that section in the next
republican national convention. What has
the south to offer any republican candidate
at the polls? Nothing whatever. There is
no republican party in the south. There
are organizations in the different states
which nominate candidates now and then
and somewhat languidly go through the
motions of a campaign, but the maneuvers
come to nothing. They are predOomed to
failure. The democrats polling but a few
thousand votes carry everything before
them.
Why this chatter, then, about the in
fuence of the south in naming the next re-
publican candidate for the presidency? The
party outside of the south is controlled by
men of experience and influence. and the
local organizations which they have built
up stand for something that counts in the
election returns. Is it to be supposed that
these men in the circumstances that exist
will permit the south to name the party's
candidate next year? Shall the section
from which an electoral vote could not be
transferred to the republican column with
the aid OF a block and tackle dictate to
those sections which after the issue Is
joined before the people must bear the
heat and burden of the day?
The republicans Of the south are helpless
at the polls for reasons we'll understood.
There are many excellent and deserving
men among them, who stand for good cit
izenship for good public policies, and for
free and fair discussion. In any other sec
ton they would figure in the political equa-
ton with benefit to themselves and their
neighbors. In the south they are absolutely
without power to influence the smallest po-
litical contest
If Mr.. Roosevelt were in position where
southern support in the national convention
must be secured in order to secure success
there his case would be well nigh hopeless
before the people. But he is in very diff
ferent position. The nomination is likely to
be his without a contest, and the battle as
usual will be fought outside of the south.

New Year Calls.
From the indianapolis News.

There is something to regret in the meas
urable passing away Of the old Dutch Gus
tom Of New Year calls" 1t was good
that 1t was kept as a day for renewing
friendships and freshening old acquaint-
ance. OF course, it's abuse became absurd
Looked at independently, the idea Of going
from house to house for formal call Of a
few moments, and frequently at houses
where OILY the slightest acquaintance ex-
isted Is an absurdity and pretty nearly an
abuse of the rites of hospitality. But such
things were the abuse of the custom, not
the use: the latter, which presents itself as
at time for well-wishing, pause at the first
day Of the year for pleasant renewal Of
old ties, was beautiful.

The railroads have enough to answer for
on the coal situation without being blamed
for the maniDulations Of the dealers. Strong
evidence indicates that in some cases the
latter have consplred to make a scarcity
and arGhcially advance prices. 1t 10. how

such course Is nothing less than crime,
and 1t Is crime for which the laws Of
