Evading The Law,

\ reminder of the crushing
OF the Northern Securities Company
Is being given in Nebraska, The
recent Legislature enacted a law
prohibiting brewers from engaging
in the retail liquor business or re.
tail liquor business or renting
property owned by them for saloon
purposes. The brewers of the state
owned many saloons which were in
the names of agents acting for them.
These companies will then do for
the brewers what the brewers did
for themselves before the enactment
of the law. That is the way Pres
ident Roosevelt and Attorney
General Knox busted the fam
GUS merger of the Northern Pacific,
Great Northern and Burlington
railroads. They brought suit in
the United States court-after the
legal department of Minnesota had
blaled the way and made national
action imperative-and secured a
decision dissolving the merger.

thing else. aud whatever that some
thing else is, its results are just

WAY TO CONTROL MONOPOLY
Jail the Responsible Hsads--Bettsr
Than Thousand Fines says Presi-
dent Of Princeton.

Woodrow Wilson, President of
Princeton College, in an address at
Norfolk, Va, on the 4th, urged
individual accountability for the
acts of corporations, the arrest aud
Imprisonment of corporation heads,
instead of the filming of corpora
tons themselves, as a remedy for
the monOpolistic tendencies aud
the unlawful practices of modern
industries
One really responsible man in
Jail, " he said, one real originator
Of the schemes and transactions
which are contrary TO the public
interest, legally lodged in the pen
tenitary, would be worth more
than thousand corporations
mulcted in fines, if the reform is
to be genuine and permanent.
What the country needs, Mr.
Wilson set forth, is not Govern.

gers OF railroads for evasions aud
violations of the statues.
Stock manipuiatiOns he calls
sheer thefts. and says they
should be punished as such. Fail.
ure to do so, IN his mind, is like
overlooking highway robberies.
Every corporation, 1.-THE educa

nature is done and done quickly he
fears Socialism will result.
1T is only in this way" he said
that we can escape Socialism
Unless we can single ont the indi,
vidual again and make him once
more the subject and object of the
law we shall have to travel still
further upon the road of govern
ment regulation which we have al
ready travelled so far, and that road
leads to State ownership
President Wilson says it is just
as absurd to indict or dissolve cor
porations for offenses against the
public as it would be to arrest and
confscate automobiles because
their owners killed pedestrians
If the individual is made response
bic, he is convinced, the difficulty
will pc solved.

The Government has filed a pc
tition in the United States Circuit
Court of New York asking for the
dissolution of the Tobacco Trust.
1t includes the American Tobacco
Company. the Imperial Tobacco
Company, the Britist-American
Tobacco Company, the American
Snuff Company, the American
Cigar Company, the United Cigar
Stores Company, the American
Stogie Company, fifty other cor
porations and twent-nine individ-
uals. In showing the growth of
the trust since its organization in
1890, the conclusion is reached that
at an early date, unless prevented,
it would completely monopolize the
entire tobacco industry.
