The Merger is Unlawful
service

The Supreme Court of the United
States handed down "a decision last
Monday holding that the Northern
Securities Company violated the
antitrust laws This decision is
far-reaching in It's effect and is one
of the most important questions the
court has passed upon III many
years.
The suit was instituted by the
United States against the Northern
Securities Company and the North
ern Pacific and Great Northern
Railroad Companies for the pur-
pose of dissolving the merger of the
two roads, holding such merger to
be trust in restraint of trade. The
court affirms the contention of the
government.
The court not only decides the
point at issue, but also uPhOlds the
Sherman anti trust law and the
right of Congress to enact anti
trust legislation.
The decision was by Justice Har-
Ian and was concurred in by JUS
tees Brown, Brewer, McKenna and
Day. Chief Justice Fuller and
Justices Peckham, White and
Holmes dissenting.

ST 8lames it on the Pope

Hon. S. p. Donnelly, chairman
of the Democratic state central com
mittee, has called that body to meet
at Boise on April 10, To select the
time and places of the state con-
ventions and apportion delegates
thereto. The date selected is Jeffer-
sons birthday. 1t Will be recalled
that 81 had intended to call this
meeting on April 2, believing that
t. be Jefferson's birthday, as he
had learned from consulting a
standard government work, 1.-The
Messages of Our Presidents" And
it is a fact that jefferson was born
on April ,, 1742, but it was about
that time that the world got mixed
up with the bulls and edicts OF
Pope Gregory as to lime. 1t seems
the world had been computing time
too slowly and the Pope issued an
edict that the dial of time should
be pushed ahead II days to recon
pense the loss, so what had beer
/ April 2 thereafter became April 13
This was in 1853. Now they cele
brate Jefferson's birthday on Apri
10. ST says he washes his hand
of the whole matter and will lie
the entire responsibility rest will
the Pope, and will call the meeting
on April 13, even if Is is an un
lucky number.

THE successful prosecution OF the
merger case by the Roosevelt adj
ministration practically takes the
trust issue out of the campaign. Of
all the trusts the Northern Securi-
ties Company was the most gigan-
tic in far-reaching consequences.
When the President ordered his
attorney general to prosecute this
illegal combination and has sue
cessfully put it OFT Of business, no
one VIII have the affrontry to
charge Theodore Roosevelt with
being in league with the trusts
There can be no further palaver as
to where the President stands or as
to what will be the policy of his
administration if he is reelected
If the trusts are an issue In the
campaign it VIII be of their own
choice and because they are arrayeC
against Mr.. Roosevelt and in favor
of his opponent.

The Moscow Star, referring TO
certain statements made in a re
cent issue of the HERALD. corrects
us, and would have us understand
that ali is peace and harmony
among the Republicans of Latah.
We trust that the Star has made no
mistake. 1t is good that brethren
dwell together in harmony. The
Star say the French people and
Jenkins people will work together
that Latah had the congressman
and governor at the same time
once before and that they are going
after both again. We do recall
the days when Latah had both the
congressman and the governor.
There were things doing" III old
Latah then, too. The Sweet men
and the Mcconnell men had their
knives out for each other. Mr.
Sweet and Mr.. Mcconnell were
both past masters of politics, anc
while Latah has most worthy as
pirants, has it another Mcconnell
and a Sweet?

Would Change Land Laws

THE commission appointed by
the President to examine the land
laws and to recommend any changes
that might be advisable, has re-
ported. This commission recon-
nends the following changes:
/. Absolute repeal Of the tim Der
and stone act.
2. Restriction of the commuta-
ton clause of the homestead law, so
that land chiefly valuable for tim
her can not be ccnmuted.

"Vouchers aggregating 81, 900 Il

native action by tn General As
sembly at its session of 1901 on a
proposition made or proposed to be
made for the purchase of the States
interest in the Atlantic and North
Carolina Railroad Company"
Here lie q road, in which the con-
trolling interest Is owned by the
State, and still we find officials of
the State spending the States money
to prevent size States interest in
the road from being sold by the
State. The legislature (being itself
the State) had right to sell the
States interest in the road if they
saw fit and it appears to us that it
was fragrant misuse of the States
money to spend 1t in opposing legis-
lation by the legislature. But
still the democratic sheets say there
was NO corruption in connection
with the management of the road.
1t seems that it is impossible for
any act Of democrats to be corrup
ton under democratic management.
But had this mismanagement occur
ed under Fusion rule the demo-
cratic sheets would have said that it
SUNK to High Heaven. The point
10 be kept in mind is that the men
Who spent the States money as
'bove stated were simply working
o hold their jobs. Knowing that
+ the State through its legislators
iecided that it would be money
aved for the State to lease the road
'ther men will officer the road.
'hese men used the public money to
'rotect themselves while depriving
ne State of an opportunity to effect
profitable lease and thus the crimes
7as compounded.

Some days ago Judge PEBBLES
fned three men and sentenced them
to jail for contempt Of court The
men were arrested by the sheriff,
carried to Lumberton to be placed
in Jail, but a writ Of habeas corpus
was issued by Judge Conn1r and
the men were brought TO Raleigh
for trial and were released. We
have not heard OF the whole state
being indignant and in a great state
of excitement over the proceedings,
in fact we have not read q single
paper that was indignant at the pro
ceedings. And why? For the
simple reason that neither of the
three men owned a newspaper in
which they could air their views
and make the indignation apparent.

WHAT'S IN A NAME.

We have often heard the ques-
tion asked: "What's in a name.''
We have always thought that it de-
pended a great deal as to who car
ried the name. The Wilmington
Star in speaking of the democratic
candidates for president says i:
Judge Parker's name has been a
tower Of strength to the democracy
etc.
A name may be all that is neces-
sary for southern democrats but
when it comes to the voters as q
mass they will demand for presi-
dent man, with not only name,
but who has record as well as a
platform Of principles behind him.
