principal result of having the
anti trust law on the beef trust
will be to make it close it branches
in this state and bo business with
our merchants from its Chicago
office.
State control and regulation of
trusts seems impracticable and
impossible unless all the states
pass and enforce antitrust law.
A state can not really deal with
trust unless the trust has its
home office in that state. If every
state in the Union would pass and
rigidly enforce the Logan anti
trust measure. or a law to the
same end and purposes, every
trust, pool and combination would
% UrOkeH up
But in the meantime?
In the absence of practically
uniform antitrust laws in all the
"ates-somathing that wi --.ob-
ably never be-the only way to
regulate trusts or to "bust" 'em,
as the governor of Arkansas says
in his bienial message, is through
federal law. But Gov. Davis
says, in his message, "that feder-
al Legislation will never come to
our relief | have not the slightest
doubt"
Really, this trust problem is a
Gordian knot, which no Alex
ander's sword has yet cut. For
ourselves, we grieve to see any
diminution of states rights, and
you cannot more ettectlvely dis
credit states rights than by
showing that state laws are in
sufficient for given purpose. If
the states, in effect, confess that
they cannot control the trusts
the general government must
control them. But that would in
early time simply amount to the
federal government controlling
business in all the states some-
thing the states don't want to see
blougt about, for the states
themselves want to control busi-
ne,s in their own borders. Ca

a verible statutory statue, it is

Let US take all example. Con-
slider, please, the gentle beef
trust. Here is trust that comes
home to all the people, or that
keeps beef from coming home to
all the people. The minute the
Logan anti trust bill is made
law it will be come the duty of
Attorney General Rogers to
begin proceedings against the
beef trust.
Now, this suit must either fail
or succeed.
If it fails-on its merits-the
Logan anti trust law is a failure.
If it succeeds, the beef nrust
must leave Arkansas. .te
Sppose the beef trustockGves
Arkansas. Suppose it 'es' oses
every one of ilei ,hafa4DeA,,, -u,bSlr
offices in this state and ceases to
offer its products for sale here.
Then ilthe question will be,
where shall we get our beef?
First, there is the home killed
meat as a source of supply. But
this supply is too small to be
seriously considered.
Our only other source of supply
would be the smaller packes, the
independents There are,
then packers who are not in the
beef trust? Sure.
So, Arkansas people will buy
their meat Of the independent"
packers. What will the Sin
dependent" charge US for meat?
Since, partically, they will be the
only ones from whom we can
buy, should we be surprised If
they raise the prices of meat to us?
When the Logan antitrust bill
has, in effect, given to handful
of small packers the exclusive
right to sell meat in Arkansas, is
it likely that those packers are
going to cut the price of meat?
Why should they? We can buy
nowhere expect from them. And,
really, the little fellows need the
money worse than does the trust.
So, if the beef trust were driven
from Arkansas under the Logan
anti trust bill probably the first
effect would be an increase in the
price of meat and all packing
house poducts, because we should
have narrowed the market to the
independent packers, and there
| fore tremendously decreased the
supply. OF course the case we
have sketched in the foregoing is
an ideal one. AS a matter Of
fact, if we drived the beef trust
from Arkansas we should not
thereby prevent it from selling its
goods in this state. For on
Arkansas law and no Arskansas
court could prevnt a Little Rock
merchant from ordering from
Armour & Co., at Chicago, a
carload of dressed beef, and none
could prevent Armour & Co.
from shipping that meat.
Then if the beef trust can and
will continue to sell its meat in
Arkansas just the anne, Il

COMPETITION.

1t is said Competition is the life of trade Whether

and 80 lbs second together with i bs bran and shorts

any one else. Every who knows anything about
this system of milling will tell you but before l will
stand and be choked off from my friends who have stood
by me from first to last, will them and 60 them

will give you straight 80 lbs. first patent SO lbs sec

AS have said, can't afford to do this but believe
am in a position to stand it as long as they cam

AS to buying wheat I expect to be in the market and
ready to buy all the wheat can get paying every cent

would like to naye chance at it.

WILL THE ANTITRUST BILL WORK.

The greatest question before
the American people today is the
regulation of bushes corprations.
In the middle ages there we're
times in the lives Of nations when
J the paramount issue was the re-
gulation of the feudal lords or
the strong barons, each OF whom,
in his fortified castle, was the
sovereign of a small domin, levied
taxes, made war on his fellow
lords or even his king, took pris-
oners and multed his peasants
and tradespeople when in need Of
money.
In our days and time we have
no feudal lords in stone castles,
but we do have mighty industrial
corporations-the socalled trusts.
These do not need the protection
of granite walls, high towers and
deep moats. They are entrench-
ed behind stronger defenses tha |
the material works on which the
feudal lords relied. These defen-
ses are advantageous contracts or
arrangements with railroads,
ownership of patents or trade
secrets or the practically complete
control of a certain raw material,
contracts with jobbers or retailers
designed to keep competing
goods off the market, and other
devices and arrangements tend
ing toward monopoly.
The baroniaI lords of old somc-
times got into hot water by caus-
ing trouble at both ends of the
line-they secuted the authority
of their king and oppressed their
own people. So, Today, we have
seen trusts laugh at the govern
ment and 90 right on with their
delectable work of levying excess
sive taxes On the people.
The state of Arkansas is now
making an effort to solve the trust
problem. The medium to this
end is the Logan antitrust b i'll
which, it is thought, will be fina-
lily passed in the house today and
at once signed by the governor.
This law provides that
Any corporation organized
