Abolish Privilege

The agitation for socialistic and pa
|ternalistic measures against plutocracy
offers to those Of us who believe in
abolishing legal privilege and estab-
fishing untrammeled competition the
opportunity of generation. But this
opportunity is to be availed of, not by
assailing the masses who in their rage
at trusts are turning blindly toward So
cialism for relief; it is to be availed of
| by sympathetic cooperation with them
along the only lines that can truly Sc
cure their object. If we are to infu-
ence public opinion in the right direc-
ton at times like these, we must dem
onstrate our sympathy with those who
wish to go in the right direction, and
not with those who seek to serve their
own interests and wreck the common
interests by misleading appeals to true
principles. Our demand must be for
the full and free competition that
makes for social equilibrium. We have
no call to join in the hue and cry of
| the privileged interests for any scheme
of competition that leaves their privi-
leges untouched.
Our demand should be for that full
competition which annihilateS all priv
ilege. Over common affairs, the SOW
ereign control of democratic govern
ment, and no farming out of govern
ment functions; over private affairs,
| free competition, and no interference
by government. This is the true prin-
ciple, and now is the time to give it po-
litical vitality. To illustrate the prin-
ciple in one of its aspects, with Kansas
for our object lesson, what could Kan
sas do to check Standard Oil aggres-
sion if not what she has done? What
alternative. BY codemning the pipe
lines to public use as public highways,
which is their true character, and go
ing no further in the direction of state
/ intervention than to operate these
! highways as necessary incident OF
common use, she would make the bust
ness of producing and refining oil com.
petitive within her borders, so far as
transportation is concerned. If such
competition would be defective within
the confines of a single state, then the
problem expands from state to ma
tional question, and that is all. The es-
sence of the whole matter is expressed
in these few words: In common con-
Germs, popular government must gov
ern; in private concerns, free compe-
tition must regulate.-The Public.
