EEpG RI.IC special.

REPU BIC special.
Washington. Dec 1t turns Out that
Commission, r James K. Ger ti.lls plan for
Federal contro! of great Interstate cor
porations is not only not nrw. but that the
idea is d direct copy Of propositions first
made by the Standard Oi! Company. This
interesting and somewha; humorous d.
velopment in the agitation for the control
OF trusts has attracted mich attention
here and has caused some statesmen 10
pause and think.
Before the Industrial Commission ap-
pointed by President Mckinley. John D.
Archhold OF the Standard OIL COMPANY
on September $. 1879. made this rema rka Bile
statement:
III you should ask me. gentlemen, what
legislation can be imposed TO improve the
present condition. i answer that the next
great and, 10 my mind. inevitable step Of
progress in the direction of our CONNER
cial development les in the direction Of
national or Federal corporations. If such
corporations should be made possible un-
der such fair restriction and revision as
should be attached TO them. any branch Of
business could be freely entered upon by
all Commissioners and the talk Of mo-
nOpoly would forever be done away with.
LAWS VARIED.
Our system of State corporation laws
almost as varied in their provisions
as the number of States. is vexatious alike
TO the business community and TO the au-
thorities of the various States. Such Fed
eral action need not take away from these
States their right to taxation or police
regulation, but would make it possible for
business organizations to know the gem
eral terms on which they could conduct
their business in the country at large
Lack Of uniformity in the laws of vari-
ous States as effecting business corpora
tiuns is one of the most vexatious features
attending the business life of any great
corporation to-day. and suggest for your
most careful consideration the though: Of
a Federal law
Mr.. Archbold's remedy for the situation
which has since developed. as pointed out
in the Presidents message. is almost iden-
tical with the propositions made by Com
missioner Garfield in his annual report
The representative of the Standard Oil
Company. while advocating Federal chart
ers. did object to what he called re-
strictive legislation. On this subject he
said 10 the commission:
THE outcry. gentlemen. against corpo-
rations does not come from the great busy
industrial classes. but from impractical
sentimentalists. yellow journals and po-
litical demagogues-from the latter. per
hsps. more than any other II Is a veri-
table attack upon thrift and prosperity.
To listen TO their voices TO the extent Of
imposing restrictive Legislation would
mean a frightful step backward in 5he
commercial development of our country"
