where they are available for the con-
sumner. Under Mr.. Bryan these
merchants would be obliged continu-
ally to face the danger that the value
of their stocks of goods might be
suddenly greatly decreased by a
decision of some officer somewhere
that the articles which they have on
their shelves are to be classed as
trust controlled articles, and are to
be put on the free list, and food OF
free foreign competition brought In
to undersell them.
Mr.. Bryan's platform declares that
all articles in which American man.
ufactures compete with foreign man
ufactures the tariff must be reduced
to revenue basis; that is to say,
that no duty shall be imposed with
view of protecting American manu-
facture. Little attention Is being

ton which would be involved in this !:
but | point to the fact that such n
proposal would destroy the right of
private contract on the part of the
great producers and merchants of the
country, and would impose upon all
business the same limitations which
are properly imposed upon common
carriers In the performance of their
public duty of transportation, for
which they have received franchises
from the public. Under such a pro-
vision no great manufacturer or
merchant could make prices to his
customers to suit the conditions and
requirements of his trade. No matter
how important IL might be for him to
reduce his stock, no matter how great
might be the necessity of making
sales to raise money for the continu-
ance of his business, no matter how
important II might be for him TO

with that immediate effect upon the
business of the country that | am
dealing now, and that would be the
effect of Mr.. Bryan's election.
Mr.. Bryans platform proposes that

poration engaged in interstate COM
merce-and all the large ones are

shall be required to take out a Fed
eral license before 1t shall be permit
ted to control as much as twenty
five per cent of the products in which
1t deals, and that these licenses shall
require all the concerns which hold
them to sell all purchases in all parts
of the country on the same terms
after making due allowance for cost
of transportation. All the leading
concerns making or dealing in any OF

kinds of articles made and sold in

limitation.

ascertaining or caring whether the
fare SO paid will furnish reasonable
return to the railroad to enable IL to
pay it's labor, buy Its materials and
return and profit whatever to the
capital invested.
Mr.. Bryan proposes in his latest
platform that all articles entering in
to competition with trust controlled
products shall be placed upon the
free list.
Examine this for a moment. The
great evil of trusts lies In their driv-
Ing out of business their smaller
competitors, and after these are
driven out, putting up prices. The
driving out of business is practically
always done by unfair and oppressive
means. Indeed, 1t can be done in no
other way except in cases where the
trusts controls the whole raw ma
terial of manufacture, for whenever
the raw material of manufacture can
be obtained and competition has a
fair chance, the moment prices are
put up competition increases and the
trust control increases. The Republic
can plan of dealing with trusts Is to
go after all the big concerns which
are driving competition out by unfair
practices, to compel them to stop
and to punish them II they do not
stop, so as to give the smaller COM
petitors fair chance. The whole

contracted by an indefinite number of
unknown persons.
Mr.. Bryan in his Lincoln speech of
October 18th attacked Governor
Hughes for yetoing the two-eent fare
bill in the State of New York, and
held up that veto as reason why the
Republican party should not be con-
tinued in power
He knew, as the whole country
knows, that at the same time when
Governor Hughes vetoed that bill he
procured the passage by the legisla-
ture of New York of a bill providing
for public service commission
charged with the duty of inquiring
into the reasonableness of railroad
rates, what rates would enable the
railroad companies to pay their ex-
penses, maintain their road and roll
ing stocks and still make reason
able profit and to regulate rates in
accordance with the facts ascertain
ed; and he knew that the ground of
the veto OF the two-cent fare bill was
that the bill was passed by the leg
islature of New York without any
inquiry whatever into such facts, but
as a purely arbitrary act of power
fixing the rate without any reference
to the question whether 1t would
amount to confiscation of railroad
property or not. Mr.. Bryan's dis
approval of Governor Hughes course
therefore. was an approval of a
practice under which the people who
travel upon the railroads of the
United States shall fix their own fares
by legislative enactment in accordance
with what they wish to pay, without

railroad rebate system, for which so
many punishments have been inflicted
within the last few years. is illustra-
tion of one of the unfair methods by
which big concerns have been driy-
ing smaller concerns out of business.
The essential idea of this method of
dealing with trusts is to give the
little concern a fair chance against
the big concern.
Mr.. Bryan's plan is that as soon as
IL is discovered that some manufacture
ing concern has got what he calls
control of some article, the article
shall be put on the free list, taking
off all protection whatever and ruling
out both the trust and its comeptitors
at the same time; for. as a general
rule, American manufacture cannot
pay American wages and compete in
our markets with European man

without some protection. The neces-
sary effect of such a proceeding would
be to close the American mannfac-
turtles, throw the American workmas
out of employment and compel our
people to make all their purchases of
the particular articles concerned in
Europe. This would not merely be
ruinous to the competing American
manufacture as well as TO the trust,
but would be most disastrous in It's
effect upon mercantile trade. The
product of manufacture are dis
tributed by our mercantile houses, the
wholesaler buys from the mill; the
retailer buys from the wholesaler and

stocks of goods kept at the points

 In neither game was there scintllla of brilliance save the pitching of Tom Fisher in the second affair.
 Before the completion of the last scrim- mage many people. knowing aforehan what the result would be, left the field
 The double-header was witnessed by 4o0o people which, in view of the fact that the Barons are not top-notch draw ing cards. is indicative of the fine bast- ball spirit current in Mobile.
 In the first game Robertaille was not effective with men on bases, and in adj dition three costly errors spoiled what ever hope he might have had of redeem- ing himself.
 In the second, although Bauer did taif- ly well. the Barons had no chance before the splendid twirling of Manager flsasr.
 The fans who saw the games realized that it was simply a question of how pig the scores would be.
 Manager Molesworth was dlsgustea after the days work, and had no hesl- tancy in expressing himself.

ATLANTA WANTS HUGH TATE

Marion. O., July 15.-A fancy price was offered by the Atlanta club of the South- ern league for First Baseman Hugh Tate of the Marion, O.&, State league team to- night.
 It is understood the Marion club will re- fuse to part with Tate at once, and that the offer, which was for immediate de- livery, may therefore be withdrawn. This is not definitely determined as yet
 Tate, who was with Marion in the Ohio and Pennsylvania league last year, led the league in batting, hitting for .SSO. This year he has been hitting as hard and has kept his team well to the front. The Atlanta team is said to be anxious for first baseman of the first class, and ready to do almost anything to get Tate at once.
