"Policy Of the Republican
National Administration
Toward Trusts"

New York World Editorial, March Is. 1904
81. The Anti Trust Law was framed
by a Republican, was passed by a
Republican House and a Republican
Senate, was signed by a Republican
President.
~. The law remained a dead letter on
the statute books during the entire
second term of Grover Cleveland, a
Democratic President. Through those
four years of Democratic adminisrra-
ton all appeals and all efforts of the
World to have the law enforced were
met with sneers. jeers and open con-
{. tempt from a Democratic Attorney
General, Richard Olney, who pretended
that the law was unconstitutional. and
who would do nothing toward prose-
: cutting yiolators Of it.
80. The first effort to enforce the law
was made by Theodore Roosevelt. a Re-
publican President. The first Attorney
General to vigorously prosecute offend
ers and t. test the law was a Republic
can Attorney General, Philander @.
Knox.
~. The decision of the Supreme
Court Of the United States, given as a
finality from which there is no appeal.
upholding the law as perfectly Consti-
tutional and absolutely impregnable in
every respect. as the World for IL years
constantly insisted, was due to five
Judges. everyone of whom is a Repub-
lican.
$50. The dissenting minority OF the
Court included every Democratic Judge
of that tribunal, to-wit : Chief Justice
Fuller of Illinois, Mr.. Justice White of
Louisiana, and Mr.. Justice Peckham of
New York. all these distinguished
Democrats not only voted against the
Constitutionality of the law, but pro-
nounced it as a danger to the Republic.
'6. Under these circumstances it does
not seem probable that the Democrats
can make great capital in seeking to
monopolize the antitrust issue and
charging the Republican party with the
crime of being owned body and soul by
the Trusts.
at is just as we'll to record some
plain truths, however unpleasant or
surprising"
