without patronage to bribe a single
voter; without predatory corpora

has won a signal victory at the pri-
maries and has become the free choice

Our Steel Trust Abroad.

The Chicago Journal. noting the
alarm expressed by English producers
at the dumping of goods in England
BY our American steel trust, says:
British steel men have reason to
fear the American trust. which is In
the habit of making similar trade
forays into foreign countries. Not
long ago it sold steel rails to the Jap
anese government, after paying freight
across this country and the Pacific
ocean. at IS ton less than American
railroads. here at the trusts head

steel trust the only tariff-protected
American industry that takes trade
away from foreign manufacturers. aft
or paying freight to their territory, In
spite of the cry raised by such In
iustries that II the tariff were re-
duced they would be ruined. There
are many others engaged In robbing
the American consumer through the
tariff. and at the same time competing
with foreign manufacturers who ought
to be able TO produce more cheaply
than Americans. IL there is any truth
