Hard. to Believe. !.

The state of New York has, struck a
grievous blow at the economic prin-
ciple Of consolidation. It has done that
which it ought not to do and, more
over, could not do-according to the
modern doctrines Of industry. Time
and again we have been told that the
trust tendency is one that is as SUI
sperior to human law as the procession
Of the seasons.
There was once a trust known as the
candy trust. It was arrogant and pow
erful. It raised the price Of candy rs
per cent, denied credit to small deal
ers and shut, out all new competitors.
One of the trusts victims was Nor
ris% Goldenberg, 1913 E Broadway,
New York. The trust ruined Golden
berg. This disaster drove his wife
first to insanity and then to death.
Goldenberg was angry. He regarded
the candy trust as a murderer. No
considerations of invincible CONNER
cial and industrial tendencies deferred
this broken man from making up his
mind that he would break the trust.
Fortunately, he found support at
the hands of a wealthy candy manu-
facturer who had not gone into the
trust. A Special attorney was en-
gagged to assist. the district attorney.
and prosecutions of members of the
trust were begun under the state anti
trust law. From that moment the
tables were turned, the hounds were
pursued. It was soon their turn to
cry for mercy.
The other day thirteen members of
the candy trust lined up in a New
York courtroom and pleaded guilty to
the charge of conspiracy in restraint
of trade. In view Of the fact that the
trust had already been smashed the
judge suspended sentence, but warned
them that if they were ever arrested
again the sentence would be imposed
with severity.
| There is something wrong, about
this. What right has an Insignificant
little state like New York to, inter-
fere with the elemental tendencies OF
| commerce? How can it be possible
that law has triumphed over un-
scrupulous money-getting? Are what
are known as the natural tendencies
of trade-tendencies to enrich the
few and pauperize the rnany--to be
thus impudently interfered with by the
law?

John Mitchell's Suggestive Tes-

In his annual address abefOre the
United Mine Workers Of America on
Monday, John Mitchell very strongly
commended the results Of the plan
aof settlement presented by the govern
ment commission and adopted by the
operators and miners In the anthra-
Cite region Of Pennsylvania, dispos-
Ing peacefully Of the menace of a
great strike, the parties to which had
reached q point Of irreconcilableness
which threatened the peace Of the
country.
MI. Mitchell said it was a pleasure
for him to report that since the set
tlement, operators and miners have
steadily become more cordial, and,
with very few exceptions. the award
Of the commission has been observed
and an era of comparative peace and
contentment has reigned in the ter

Mr. Mitchell. as to the Colorado
miners strike, so long continued, said

ment desired an amicable settlement,
but the companies were absolutely
uncompromising
Evidently, the medicine which has
allayed the fever heat and brought
eordiality between operators and
miners, and comparative peace and
6ontentment in the anthracite region,
will operate with equally good effect
in the higher levels of Colorado. It
comes thru a willingness to enter into
peaceful conference for adjustment of
differences. Mr.. Mitchell refers to the
positive advantages of the annual
joint conference system by which
operators and miners settle conditions
for the ensuing year. citing a notable
instance of mutually favorable agree
