Permit Some Contracts.

The substantive part OF the antitrust
law should remain as ut present; that
is every contract in restraint OF trade
or commerce among the several States
OF with foreign nations should continue
to DO declared illegal. provided. how
ever that some proper governmental
authority (suCh as the Commissioner or
Corporations acting under the Secretary
of Commerce and Labor, be allowed TO
pass on any such contracts.
Probably the best method Of prorId-
ing FOR this would be TO enact that
any contract. subject 20 the prohibl-
ton contained in the antitrust law, into
which II was desired 10 enter, might be
filed with the Bureau Of Corporations
or other appropriate executive BODY.
Tl,is would provide publicity. Within,
say, sixty days OF the nling-Whlch per
iod could be extended By order Of the
department whenever for any reason IL
did not give the department sufficient

might forbid the contract which would
then become subject TO the provisions
OF the antitrust law, II at all IN re-
straint of trade.
II no such prohibition was issued
the contract would then only be liable
to attack on the ground that IL con-
stituted an unreasonable restraint OF
trade whenever the period of filing
had passed without any such prohibit
ton. the contracts or combinations

THE CAUSE OF 1T ALL

OF course everybody knows the
outcome Of the recent war between
Russia and Japan, and the terms Of.
peace which We're agreed upon at
Portsmouth, y. H, through the inter
ventiOn OF President Roosevelt: but
it is probable that bur a small pro-
portion Of our people could explain
the real causes which led 10 the sIrug-
gle. \ few words therefore. setting
ioYtl some facts lately disclosed, fl
JeG in with what has been common
history. may be Interesting. The Va
rious nations OF Europe had looked
with longing eyes toward portions 81
China, ana when several years ago
some German missionaries were Kill
ed. the kaiser by way of cOmpensa-
ton seized Kaio-Chou, which was fol-
lowed by England occupying Wei-hai-
Wei Russia, seeing the chance Of
gratifying her desire for an ice free
port, took Port Arthur, under the pre-
text of fear that she would be fore
stalled by some other country. By
extending to this point a branch Of
the Siberian railway, she secured
practical control over the whole OF
Manchuria. Japan joined with China
in protest against this action, and an
agreement was reached whereby all
Russian troops should be withdrawn
scom tbs territory, except sufficient
only 10 guard the line of railroad. The
evacuation commenced and d conflict
would have been avoided. but at this
time one BezObrazof appeared on the
scene, acquiring by some means a
controlling influence over the szar.
BezobrazOf had become possessed of
some possessions granted by the KO-
rean government for cutting timber
along the Yalu river and ne appears
to have induced Nicholas to invest
millions Of dollars in his schemes,
and not only this. but also against
the advice of his ministers the car
allowed these operations to assume
q politicO-military aspect by sending
in connection herewith bodies of
troops into Korean territory. Japan
accenting in this the initial step to-
ward Russian control there, called a
halt in no uncertain tone, and the
car found himself obliged either to
back out and probably lose his money
or risk a war. Although utterly I'M
prepared for such a climax he took
the chance of the latter; the with
drawal of troops from Manchuria was
stopped; some places which had been
cleared were reoccupied, and the con-
flict began, the consequences of which
are too familiar to need repetition.

To the Editor Ocala Banner:
l have before me Document H." a
part of the Congressional Record of
the National House of Representa-
tives.
This document is called a Review
Of Organism" and is therefore a crit
ical review Of the next president of
the United States by one Of the oppo-
sition for campaign purposes. The
address is written with lead pencil
and the writing looks familiar
There are at least $4,000 postof1ces
in the United States, and if We allow
leo of these documents to each post
Office then we have 100000 sent out
at the expense Of the people Of the
country. If they were sent under a
one cent wrapper the postage alone
would cost $4,000. Say the paper
and envelopes cost as much more,
then we have $4,000, spent by the
government in this instance alone for
partisan purposes to help elect Mr..
Taft president Is there any wonder
we always have a deficit in the post
Office department? Let us suppose
that ten of these distributions will be
made in this campaign. then the peo-
pie, regardless Of party affiliations
Will have put into this campaign ST.
500.000 To q man up a tree this looks
like a prostitution of the great facil-
tiles Of this government to the level
Of common ward politics
The democrats of this country. re-
gardless of past differences, should
rise in their might and rebuke this
unwarranted use of governmental ia
cilities for party purposes. Let every
democrat go to the polls and put in
one for Bryan and Kern. If they are
elected these abuses Of power vii be
corrected.
Yours very truly,
