Republican Change of Heart.

"Trust-Busting' does not seem to
be inherent in the Republican breast,
but with pains and prodding they may
acquire it. Debate in the senate a
few days ago over the confirmation
of Secretary Bonaparte exposed the
fact that only a short time ago he had
expressed the belief that concentra
tion of railroads and the formation
of trusts was inevitable and advanta-
geous. Senator Culbertson of Texas
read extracts from Secretary Bona
parties speeches which indicated an
attitude of an unwilling trust bust

was not a proper person to have
charge of the department of justice,
which is supposed to be actively in

tor Knox defended Secretary Bona.
parte and declared that he had "un.
dergone change of heart and would
be found working as hard as anybody
to bring the trusts under the arm of
the law" The report of the SEN
ate proceedings says: when some
senator suggested that the views of
many other Republicans on this par
ticular subject had undergone some
thing of change, there was gen.
erai laugh" AS Senator Knox is
supposed to represent the steel trust
and the great Pennsylvania railroad
combination, the question is, who will
vouch that his heart has undergone
a change on the trust and corpora
tion questions, for unless he has,
some one who will stand as sponsor
for him, his defense of Bonaparte is
hardly convincing.

THE TARIFF TAX.
insidIously Being Increased, Which
Adds to Trust Prices.

The collection Of tariff tax on i'm
pcrts should be simple matter, but
the Republican politicians, acting in
the interest of the protected monop-
olists, have purposely made the sched-
ules intricate and conflicting. There
are, at the port of New York alone,
hundreds OF entries of goods held up
every month by protests of importers
because the appraisers are continually
trying to impose higher duties, by hav-
Ing the goods entered under para
graphs OF the tariff act other than
those that similar goods have hereto
lore been entered under. Then there
is the constant fight between the i'm
porters and the government officials
about the declared value of the goods
in the country of their origin. The
protected trusts and monopolists have,
under this administration, as under
former Republican administrations,
controlled the appointment of the GUS
tom house officials, and trust interests
have been subseryed by so interpret
ing the law as to increase the duties
paid on imports, in the manner men.
toned, so as to allow our monopolists
to Increase the price of their products,
with which the foreign imports COM
pete. The higher the tariff tax, the
greater the price OF trust products.
All this maneuvering and evading
Of the intention of the ad valorem
duties of the tariff act is, therefore,
in the interest of the trusts and COM
bines that control the manufacture of
homemade goods. There would not
be so great reason for complaint If
the increased cost of importing for
eign-made goods did not allow our
monopolists to add to the price of
their homemade products and thus
make much more than a reasonable
profit The whole question at issue is.
shall the trusts and manufacturers be
inordinately protected and thus al
lowed by law to increase their profits
at the expense of the American peO-
pie? Even the most rabid Republican
prOtectionists do not now claim that
we have any longer any infant indus
tries that need protecting, for the in
fants have grown to giants, and in
league with the magnates of the rail-
road banking and other enormous cor
porations control, in a great measure,
the legislative, executive and judicial
of the government, by an
alliance with the politicians of the Re-
publican party for mutual advantage
and protection.
To revise the tariff law would strike
at the root of these evils, and although |
perhaps not entirely curing all Of
them, it would tend to greatly reduce |
the exorbitant profits now demanded |
by the trusts, most of whom are pay |
ng large dividends ON their watered |
stocks and bonds, and would thus re-
luce the cost of living which is now
too high. Unless the
,ariff is revised, so that the cost of liv-
ng is reduced, the wages and salaries

should monopolize prosperity at the
expense of the many.

1t has become apparent that with

Speaking of Moody, Washington society is
having little fun, and not altogether quiet fun at
his expense The joke is thought to be better than
anything else that has come along since a great

Chambrun and several other Washington diplO-

In boring for water at Yazoo City a
vein of soft coal 18 feet in thickness
was encountered at a depth of SIS feet.
The coal will be given thorough test,
and if found of value arrangements for
mining it will be promptly made. A
supply of coal would be of inestimable
worth to that town, affording cheap fuel
for manufacturing plants, matter of
great importance in the industrial devel-

Wall FROM COUNTRY BANKS.

How not to use the Interstate Com
merce Commission is well Illustrated by
the action of the American Bankers
Association in its complaint against the
express companies for "usurpation,' IN
the money order business, Of the "prero-
gatives of banking associations" If 1t
is mere ~usurpation" that troubles the
banks, why don't they start a crusade
on the government postal service, with
its immense money order department.
Ii it is business competition that really
worries them, why do they fail to
recognize the fact that-as the Inter
state Commerce Commission Aas As an
especial purpose and mission the foster
inc of competition in order that the
plain, ordinary. citizen may not fail OF
his share in the square deal'-their
complaints could not be lodged in a
worse quarter?
Again, ii the banks fail to properly
supply legitimate demand on them
selves as factors in the development and
progress 0: communities and regions,
why should they ask the government to
intervene to prevent some one else's per-
formance of their neglected dutiesf
Imagine, for single moment, the figure
that our frontier hamlets and mining
camps would cut with no other facilities
for the transmission of money than the
banks offer Imagine also the effect
on bank deposits, if these facilities af'
forded by the express companies for ex-
pediting the settlement Of indebtedness
were cut off
The fact is that the banks have, in
lordly sort of way, given in the non
depositor class to understand that their
business is hardly wofth while, and 60
ing to banks for small drafts has thus
become less and less popular. The ex.
pres companies, on the other hand, have
cultivated the fertile fields Of small pa
tronage and have reaped their reward
Now, in the natural progress of business
certain banks find it necessary to work
every neglected source of profit "for
dividends sake"-hence this complaint
When analyzed we suspect the com
plant will be found to have its sources
in rural soil, and that the country bank
has thus, through their natural asso-
citation, made its voice heard. There arr
things in the express business that sadly
need reforming and some, perhaps, thai
may well come within the purview O.
the Interstate Commerce Commission
but the bankers have not, it seems to US
put their finger on one of these.
