Windham County reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1901-1906, 1903-09-25

There were no trolley cars at work
on Sunday. A strap slipped some
where and the whole business was held
up. Superintendent Jones SAYS that
nothing but the powers above could
have foreseen the accident and conse-
quent delay, so we take his word for
it. AT all events there was a very
abrupt and unceremonious stoppage of
traffic, without the least advance no.

lions. One is that a belt split; an
other that new and bigger engine
is needed at the power house. There
are various other ideas advanced But
the simple fact remains that there
We're no trolley cars running last Sun
day, no notice was given in advance,
and many people were put out"
because they had planned for church
services as usual and got badly left.
1t is said that the road is getting ready
for the heavy travel and double fares
of the fair days.
The Burlington Free Press with much
effusion-nay, eagerly-offers Mayor
Burke to the state as democratic can
didate for governorship. But no; it
shalr not be. 1t is very pleasant for us
down here to listen to the merry clane
of his anvil away up in Burlington. but
we do not want to be under the ham,

portant statements were made to-day
having a direct bearing on the prospects
for antitrust legislation before the pres
ent session closes. coming as they do from
two members Of the judiciary COMMITTEES
Of the Senate-Senator Depew OF New
York and Senator McComas of Maryland.
Senator Depew pronounced himself
most emphatically in favor Of legislation
providing for publicity.
Senator McCOmas announced himself
ready 70 work in COMMITTEES and the
floor of the Senate in favor OF effective
legislation regulating interstate corpora
tions just so far as the limitations Of the
constitution will allow
Senator Depew said: II have consid-
cred this question Of State and govern
mental regulation of great corporations or
public and semi-publfc character. and
have long held the view that legislation
having as its most important feature pub
hcity is the most effective and fairest TO
all concerned 1 speak more particularly
of publicity as already applied by many
States TO the great insurance companies
and great railroad corporations of the
country. These afford the best examples
of the good effects Of legislation Of this
character-good to the public. the Govern
ment and the corporations themselves.
by means of this publication good cor
porations survive. the bad are weeded
out So far within the limits of the con-
stftution as the Government can go in
providing for this publicity I think legis-
lation should be passed. Statements OF
the capital stock the number OF stock
holders, dividends and all other details
bearing on the standing OF such corpora
tions could be made without injury to
any one Great concerns doing a 1egiti-
mate business should have no fear OF the
results. Concerns which are not doing a
legitimate business are not entitled to
merciful consideration The best exam
pie Of the soundness and benefit OF great
public corporations is found In insur-
ance companies and no corporations are
subjected to more careful supervision by
State authorities. They have built up a
tremendous legitimate business. not in
spite of but because Of a Just and fair
publicity.
Senator McComas OF Maryland. another
member of the Judiciary Committed. said
tonight in relation TO trust legislation:
fI shall work and vote in committee and
in the Senate for legislation looking to the
regulation Of what are known as trusts
just so far as the limitations Of the con-
stitutiOn will permit. 1 believe that Gov
ernment supervision. so far as it IS pos
sible 10 give it. is best for all concerned
the officers and stockholders Of large cor
porations and the public at large. No good
trust should have any fear of such super
vision.
Il will work and vote for just, fair
and active measure. II Congress should
do anything at all in this line, which
seems to be a public demand, il should
do something that means something"

to Perkins refused to sign the cali, not all
OF those who did not sign are opposed to
him. There are promises from one or two
besides those included in the sixty-four
that they will vote for Perkins or sign up
by tomorrow.
George Hatton, the representative ot
Senator Perkins, arrived in Sacramento
this morning with his caucus call. He at
once opened headquarters in the Golden
Eagle Hotel. where printed cards soon
announced the fact that the Perkins
headquarters were to be found behind GER
tain doors Hatton had something over
fifty names on the call and while this
was more than sufficient to control the
Republican caucus, HattOn wanted 10
finally settle the whole matter and get
clear majority Of the entire Legislature.
To that end he bent all Of his energies
and shortly after 10 o'clock tonight he
announced that one name more than the
necessary sixty-one had been secured and
still there were more to follow.
AS soon as the last names were added
to the caucus call the document was di-
vided into two parts. The Senatorial list
was given TO Senator Lukens of Alameda
County and the Assembly list was
turned over to Assemblyman n. X Fos-
ter of the same county. Though these
documents were circulated by Hatton as
the representative of Senator George c.
Perkins. they are the property OF the
Republican members of the two houses
and will be used by them in organizing
