Officials Already Overloaded.

A third general objection to govern
ment agency rests on the principle of
the division of labor. Every additional
function undertaken by the govern
ment Is fresh occupation imposed on
body already overcharged with
duties. A natural con- fence is that
most things are i'll done, much not
done at all, because the government is
not able to do it without delays which
are fatal to its purpose; that the more
troublesome and less snowy Of the
functions undertaken are postponed
and neglected. and an excuse is always
ready for the neglect, while the heads
of the administration have their minds
so fully taken up with official detail. in
however perfunctory a manner superin-
tended, that they have no time or
thought to spare for the great interests
of the state and the preparation of en-
larged measures of sound improve
ment.-John Stuart Mill.

POINTS OF Difference.
Public and Private Methods Contrast.
ed-oreanization vs.. Aggregation.

Public and Private Methods Contrast.
ed-oreanization vs.. Aggregation.
One controlling economic reason for
opposing public ownership is that ax-
cry individual In society prospers just
in proportion as industry gets the best
there Is In human capability. On the
other hand, government control and di
rection never get and in the nature Ct
things never can get all there is or TIE
best there is in human capabilit-.
Now the government ma l4-,-...'r
with private enterprise in GET o.
pable men, but it has not thI3 Ga
'-shown anything of the capacity Of
private enterprise to assign the RI
man always to the right place &c
agency which in private enterprise
succeeds so generally in eventually
landing In the right place the right
man is not simply good intention or
mere intelligence, but the intelligence
and intention which constantly study
the enterprise In hand, which make 1t
the one affair in life, constantly
thought of and planned for-an intelli-
gence and intention, too, which are
themselves as nearly as possible per,
manent. That kind Of seeking out and
watchfulneSs few government depart
ments possess. The men in charge CT
government departments may be intel
ligent and well intentioned, but they
are In today and out tomorrow. The
thing under them IS not their child.
Ihey never, as matter Of fact, get
their hands and their minds fully into
the work
Nor will civil service change this.
Civil service examinations may secure
capable men. but no civil service ex-
animation can assign the right man to
the right place. can pick out of the
thousand capable men Just the Kind Of
capability that is fitted to this place
and just the kind that Is fitted to that.
Indeed, between government control
and private control the difference in
that respect is almost the exact differ
ence between what we call true or
ganization and what is the merest ag-
gregation, for in private enterprise
each man has come by a process of
attrition to the place he is best fitted
to fill, while in government employ
ment each man is dropped into his
place irrespective of special fitness and
under civil service is riveted there

LITTLE INDlVlDUALiSM THERE.
Why Public Ownership Is Popular In
European Countries


European Countries.
In Europe governments are largely
paternal because Of the lack of indi-
vidualism. The very helplessness of
the people fosters and necessltates pa
ternalism. That is why national and
municipal governments operate public
utilities. Under monarchy, for that
reason, the tendency of the people is
naturally toward socialism
The phenomenal growth and pros
perity of the United States have been
attained without either paternalism or
socialism. Compare the condition of
the people here, their better living,
their comfort and happiness, with the
condition of the people OF the nations
of Europe, and there is only one con
clusion-that is that for us individual
ism is the state policy, and we do not
have to borrow the institutions of for
eign nations created by a need from
which we are free. 1t is just because
of our individualism that socalistic in
situations and cooperative schemes
never prosper here.-Newark q. j. Ad-
vertiSer.

A Trade Union Inconsistency

One OF the anomalies of trades union

ditions and wages Of labor must be
determined by laws and ordinances

PATENTS RAP TRUST LAWS.



sherman statute.
Decisions handed down in two Wis
consfn lawsuits yesterday reveal the
Sherman antitrust law and the United
States patent laws in a HOPELESS clash.
The United States circuit court of APP
peals for the seventh district at Chi
cago, Justice Baker delivering the
opinion, maintains that patented ar
tfcles are not articles of trade and
commerce among the several states.
This decision IL not overturned by the
United states Supreme Court makes a
patented commodity legal article OF
free Interstate sale and transportation
regardless of the Sherman law. In
other words, a patent. 1t is held, can
be used on any arttcal and used In re-
straint of trade REGARDLESS Of the trust
law.
The two cases which were decided
by the circuit court of appeals are
those of the RUBBER Tire Wheel Com
pany. plaintiff In error. against the
Milwaukee Rubber Works Company
and the Indiana Manufacturing Com
pany, appellant. against the j. l. Case
Thrashing Machine Company.
In the J. I. Case Thrashing Machine
Company case 1t was set forth that
had licensed the former company to
make and sell strawstackers, embody-
ing its inventions. the selling price 70
be not less than $3.50, with $50 royal
this arrangement was carried out and
then the Case Company disregarded
such arrangement. alleging, among
numerous other reasons, that Its con-
tract with the indiana Manufacturing
Company was a violation of the Sher-
man antitrust law: The violation was
explained to consist in the Indiana
company uniting a large number of IL
censes in such manner that an uniaw-
full combination was effected in that
the price of $3.50 was arbitrarily fixed
on all machines and In all parts at
the country this price upheld.
Aside from other technical reasons
for abrosati~- or disregardinR SINH
lar contract the Milwaukee Rubber
Works Company also maintained that
its arrangement with the Rubber Tire
Wheel Company was also part of an
unlawful combination expressly pro-
hibited by the Sherman ANTITRUST
law fte
The Judges of the lower courts prac-
tically maintained that any combina-
tion or Arrangement that maintained
prices at certain figure and prevent
ed competition that would lower such.
prices was violation of the Sherman
law whether such prices were main
tanned on the authority of patented
invention or not.
In its decision of today, however
the circuit court holds that the Sher-
man act does not cover patented ar
tfcles. 1t Is therefore held that patents
may be licensed out to, competitors and
monopoly maintained in restraint OF
trade regardless of the Sherman act
