WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN has
been making speeches in Indiana
in support of the National Demo-
cratic ticket. He has done exactly
what every good and every reason
able man knew that he would do,
give heartfelt and loyal support to
the Democratic ticket. Hon. w.
j. Bryan is yet about the biggest
man in the country and his friends
and they are millions-love him
and appreciate him at his real
worth. He had to hear him the
largest crowds that have assembled
in Indiana during the campaign,
and we have no doubt but that he
will be greeted by great crowds
wherever he goes to talk the doc
trine of true Democracy.

Military Megalomaniac Defined.

To the Editor of the World;
You call President Roosevelt a
military megalomaniac." What
is it? =. MI.
The Standard Dictionary defines
megalomaniac as insanity inwhich
the subject thinks he is great or ex-
alted." Amegalomaniac is one who
thinks himself great or exalted, or,
in the vernacular, has "the big
head" A military megalomaniac
is a person who thinks himself
a great warrior and whose mind
dwells almost constantly on militia
ry glory. President Roosevelt's
bellicose utterances, his glorifica-
ton of force, his calls for an ever
bigger army and navy, his propos-
ed overlordship in the Western
Hemisphere, fit the word to him
very closely.-New York World,
September 3, 1904.

the first antitrust bill January 30,
1888, Fiftieth Congress; Mr., now
Senator, Rayner, Democrat, the
second, who first suggested basing
the law on the commerce clause Of
the Constitution and enacting q
penal section. Congress followed
his suggestion in framing the law.
The very first suit fled under
this law was decreed by Judge ID.
M. Kee democrat, 1917. The
government and the people won.
The very first suit won by the gov
eminent Tin the Supreme Court of
the United States) was the Mis-
souri, Transportation case. (l66,
page BIZ, twice lost under the
Harrison administration.
The Joint Traffic and Addyston
Pipe Trust cases were filed by
Judge Harmon democrat, Attor-
ney General under Cleveland's sec
ond administration }, and the gQv-
eminent won both of these cases.
Judge Peckham wrote the opinion
Of the court in all three.
These three cases the Supreme
Court followed in deciding the re-
cent merger" case the Republi-
cans snake SO much over" The
Democrats paved the way.
The Democrats under the first
Cleveland administration caused
the Interstate Commerce law to be
passed. Mr.. Reagan (Democrat)
led the fight for it and had for the
eleven years before. The so-called
Sherman antitrust law passed the
Senate June Is and House June
20, 1890, unanimously. Five anti
trust sections were framed by SEN
ator John T. Morgan, 1894, and be-
came law in the Wilson Tariff Act
and are now the law. Then the
Democrats made, in the Fiftieth
Congress, 1888 and 1889, the first
report on "trusts." Mr.. Sherman
| introduced a resolution sent to his
committee, July, 1883, to inEesti-
gate trusts, but he made no report

The claim made by the Republi-
can speakers is false, that "John
Sherman's antitrust bill Is. ~,

the signature of Benjamin Harri-
SON. became the so-called Sher-
man antitrust law. Mr.. Sherman,
in, his book "Recollections of John
Sherman page 173, says both of
his trust bills failed to become the
law, but the judiciary Committee
bill did. Here are his words:
"In the previous Congress Fiji
tieth) I had introduced bill to de-
clare unlawful trusts and combina-
tions in restraint of trade and pro-
duction, but no action was taken on
it.. On December 4 (Fifty-frst
Congress) / again introduced this
bill, it being the first Senate bill
introduced in that Congress. It
was referred to the Committee on
Finance, and, having been report
ed back with amendments, / called
it up on February ~. / subse-
quently reported substitute from
the Committee on Finance for the
bill, and on March 81 I made a long
speech in support of it. Various
amendments were offered. Subse-
quently, however, the bill was re-
ferred to the Committee of the Ju-
dietary, with instructions to report
within twenty days. On April 2
Mr.. Edmunds, chairman of that
committee, reported substitute
for the bill, and stated that, while
it did not entirely meet his views,
he was willing to support it. Mr..
Vest, Me George and Mr.. Coke,
members of the committee, made
statements to same effect. When
the bill was taken up on April s, |
said [ did not intend to open any
debate on the subject, but would
state that after having fairly and
fully considered the substitute re-
ported by the Committee on the
Judiciary, | would vote for it, not
as being precisely what | wanted,
but as the best thing, under all the
circumstances, that the Senate was
prepared to give in that direction.
The bill passed by a vote of 50 yeas
and | no, Senator Blodgett of New
Jersey alone voting in thenegative.
1t was passed by the House. and
after being twice referred to,the
Committee on Conference, was fin
ally agreed to, the title having been
changed to an Act to Protect Trade
and Commerce Against Unlawful
Restraint and Monopoly, and was
approved by the President June
26, 1890"
Senators Hoar, vest ana 10

reported the bill which did become
the so-called Sherman antitrust
law, say Mr.. Sherman's bills al
