THE MAIN POINT

FUDGE GROSSCUP of Chicago is
one of the eminent jurists Of
- America. Recognizing his great
ability, President Roosevelt has invit-
ed him to become the head of a COM
mission to formulate plans for curbing
the power of industrial monopoly.
Thoughtless people may reason that
the selection of this jurist was unwise
because of the fact that he stands ac-
cused in the law Of having been a
party to the crime of manslaughter,
because railroad in which he is a
director accidentally killed man. The
warrant for his apprehension charged
him with being "constructiYely acces-
sorry" to the unfortunate incident. AL
ready the point has been raised that
on this account the president should
withdraw his invitation to Judge
Grosscup, but such an act would hard
ly be warranted. In any event there
is nothing in the incident of this disas-
ter which has the slightest bearing
upon this lawyers abilities or which
will render his services as a member
Oh IIlo pTOpOS6Q any InS
less valuable to the public
But we think Judge Grosscup has
overlooked an important point-at least
that he has not brought it out-in an
address delivered by him at Indianap.
oils. Speaking of the failure of the
Sherman antitrust law to produce the
results aimed at by that measure he
said:
"Have the so-called trusts or biz
corporations been exterminated? Have
they been even diminished? Has tbs
Sherman act brought any decrease IL
the cost of living, or any increase
in wages? Has any specific, practica
purpose of the Sherman act, no
present in the law as it has existed
for centuries. been fulfilled? On th'
contrary, were to cal the roll of tn,
so called trusts or big corporations. or

one suppose that Theodore Summerland
for example, late member of the city
council and an organization man from
his heels to his sparse hair would dare
to put his benefactor on the carpet? AS
with the impossible Smmerland, so with
his colleagues, for all owe their positions
to the ph:lanthropic benevolence of the
dominant factor in California state
politics.
Hence, when our esteemed contem-
porary says. as The Herald does this
morning, that there would appear to
be no reason why the etate board of rail-
road commissioners should not immedi-
ately take steps to punish the corporation
and it's officials for having violated the
law of the state in the manner described,
we insist that there is every reason to
the contrary, the argument we advance
being so potent as to tdmit of little con-
troversy. We would as soon expect Pat
Calhoun % plead guilty to bribe giving
and throw himself on the mercy of the
court as to see Theodor Summerland
and his confreres on the board haling
their political Greater before them to
show cause why it should not be pun
ished. 1t is a preposterous contingency.
"No, no, the statute is all right, the
methods are clearly defined, but the
machinery is controlled by the law
breaking corporation, and until the
Lincoln Roosevelt league, acting with
the Republicans, dethrones the railroad
dictator in state politics tn deplorable
conditions existing will remain the same.
This labor of love Of Mr.. Gibbon
merely accentuates the need for such IN
uprising of the plain people as is fore
shadoWed by the preGence Of the league"

HIS REVENGE

In the small compar ,ment for smokers
at the rear end of a train going out of
Norfolk a few weeks ago sat three COM
mercial travellers, and n old farmer
whose dilapidated exterior made very
plausible the story he told the conductor.
"Im only poor lone man." he said,
with tears in his eyes. II haven't cent
in the world. But my daughter is dy-
ing''-here he almost broke down-"and
want to see her. Please don't put me
off. It's only sixty miles"
Nothing doing" said the conductor,
