ROUNDING uP THE TRuSTs

Never has the prospect for breaking the arbitrary
power Of the trusts looked hopeful as it does now
BY an interesting coincidence the trust re-
ceived two staggering blows Monday one delivered
directly by the judicial branch of the government and
the other by the executive branch although delivered
unoffcialy. That both blows were akin to the solar
plexus" delivery stic science evident from
the effect produced the victims, reported from
Chicago The branch Of the beef trust hit directly by
the supreme court decision Swift G. Co. declined to
discuss the decision" and Ogden Armour chief the
beef combine is reported as equally retlcent"
The perfunctory attitude of the government concern
ing the trusts since the beginning of agitation
the subject has almost caused the public to despair of
decisive action from that All ostensibe move
ments against the trusts manfestly weak and
hafheared that confidence in their sincerity prac
tically destroyed.
But President Roosevelts determined attitude since
the last election inspired hope that drastic measures
would be taken. The energy displayed by Attorney
General Moody indicates that the determination of the
president oveated and the decision Of the
preme court concerning the beef trust raises public
confidence to a high degree.
simultaneously with the news of the judicial backset
to the beef trust the report of the presidents
address at the Union league banquet in Philadelphia
which devoted largely to the trust question The
essence of his remarks this subject is contained in
this brief quotations Neither this people other
free people will permanently tolerate the of the
vast power conferred by wealth in its corporate
form without lodging somewhere in the government the
still higher power of seeing that this power in addition
to being used in the interest of the individual ndi
vduas possessing it, is also used for and not against
the interests of the people a whole"
Having emphasized the necessity for government
control of the trusts the president went farther and
declared that the control must be real and effective
His purpose now declared succncy is ito that
the of small means has exactly good chance,
far obtain it for him. the man of larger
means" And in order to accomplish that purpose the
arbitrary power of the trusts must be not only broken
but smashed.

LAX USURY LAWS

A bill relating an important subject has been in
troduced in the legislature but while it aims in the
right direction it aims high give any reasonable
hope of it's passage 1t is the bill introduced by Senator
Woodward regulate and limit the of interest
charged by pawnbrokers collateral loans.
The bill provides that no rate of interest greater
than ~ per cent month shall be charged by pawn
brokers that their yearly shall exceed 10
per cent
The present rate of such loans, like the alleged
freight charges of the railroads. all the customer
will stand 1t is usually anywhere from to Is per
a month The rate fixed in Senator Woodwards bill is
only about half the standard rate charged by pawn
brokers in the big eastern cities where reductions
always have been successfully fought the ground
the nature of the business demands the present
charges in order to make it fairly remunerative
The pawnbroking business in California should be
strictly regulated at fixed charges within reasonable
bounds a protection to the poor who forced at
times to resort to the pawnshop. Not only the pawn
brokng business but the entire line of money loaning
on collateral salaries and the like should be regu
lated by stringent legal enactment. fact the bust
of the established pawnbrokers at the nor
dinate of interest they demand is less harmful
than the salary shaving and other phases of usury
that are carried on covertly.
1t would be noble act of philanthropy right here
in Los Angeles If such institution were established
for making loans to the poor those which have
Gently been introduced some eastern cities In New
York. for instance, three loan associations
started by philanthropsts within the last three
or four years to lend money collateral security in
pawnbrokng fashion, but at the rate of per cent per
annum. Experience proves that the business conducted
that basis will pay expenses that is all
the promoters OF 1t desire. The experiments have been
SO successful in fact that ii is thought the concerns
will earn dividends when fairly under way.
The Woodward bill cuts the rate much below what
has been regarded fair interest for pawnbrokers
and is almost sure to fail because overreach

Joseph Jefferson once told a friend

This Bagley annoyed Mr.. Jefferson
very much by his somewhat offensive
manners, but owing to the valuable
services rendered by him Mr.. Jefferson
had always been loath to take mea-
sures more severe than a reprimand.
But finally the familiarity of the prop

possible to endure, so he was sum
