ANTITRUST LAW.

How far the federal courts have
gone in broadening the scope of the
antitrust law Is shown by the circuit
courts decision in the American To-
bacco company case. Heretofore the
courts have regarded the Sherman
act askance. apparently seeking for
qualifying expressions in the severe
structures of the statute; but now the
court declares:
THE construction of the statute
confines the duty of this court within
very narrow limits. We have only to
Inquire whether the evidence shows
the combine restricting competition.
There is no necessity for going furth-
er. Other inquiries are immaterial.
The combine may not reduce the
prices paid to the growers of raw ma
terials; may not increase the prices
charged to consumers; may not seek
to exclude all Others from the field !:
may be free from coercion; may be
free from oppression-yet II IL re-
strict competition 1t restrain trade
reasonably or unreasonably, It falls
within the statute. The statute de-
clares unlawful every combine in re-
straint of trade. II contains no words
of limitation or qualification and the
supreme court of the United States
has decided that the courts have no
right to attach them to it,"

A SANDER ON THE SOUTH.

The southern temperament may be
OF the hair trigger sort; a trife quick
to resent a fancied wrong, a little
prone to shoot first and investigate
afterward. All this is part of a ma
ture essentially fine, with an inherited
regard for the nicer points of honor;
but II is not in the Anglo-Saxon breed
to plot foul murders and outlandish
crimes to achieve an insignificant pur-
pose.
There was no deep laid conspiracy
to assassinate Edward w. Carmack.
any more than there was a conspiracy
to assassinate William Goebel. 1t is
characteristic of hot-headed loyalty TO
see all good and right embodied in a
friend, and the deepest dyed villiany
in a foes conduct; and thus can we
account for the fantastic theories hate
conjures in the minds of the dead
mems friends. But those theories
are unthinkable.
The friends of Carmack in their
eagerness to revenge him on the
Coopers and all Carmacks political
foes are preparing Tennessee for a
mot OF blood and bringing the whole
south into dlsrepute in the eyes of
the world. New York papers are
publishing cartoons. satirizing "Chiv-
airy" as a plot to shoot a man In the
back. How can the south face the
world, when her own people are ac-
:using each other OF cowardly, muir
1erous conspiracies. beneath the honor
of Sioux Indian? No other people
will admit they are capable of such
iiabolical deeds.
Haven't We enough to account for
in the outrages of the Reehoot lake
outlaws and the ignorant night riders
of the Black Patch, who have been
led on from one step In crime TO an
other, without declaring to the world
that our highest functions of self
government are exercised on the same
principle of brute force that actuates
an organized mob?
Let those politicians and party or
yans that have originated and dis
seminated this SANDER against the
most American section of America
reflect that the rest of the country
,ontemplates. not so much the speci-
&c crime charged. but the state of So
ciety that makes such a crime posi-
BILE.
The Sun says Carmack was not the
victim Of conspiracy, though an
admirer OF Carmack, and unfriendly
to the Patterson machine. But the
SUN has greater desire to perpetu-
tie the good name Of the south than
to promote the interest OF any party
n faction over the PROSTATE reputa-
|tion Of her people.

oil-soaked earth, to building No. 2,

building in which the greatest loss
occurred, and in which the explosions
of cans OF gasoline took place, max
ing a resounding noise which added
to the threatening character of the
fire. Following the explosions the
flames shot up in the air, adding a
spectacular feature to the blaze and
attracting hundreds 30 the scene. SO
badly damaged was this building
that the walls were wrecked by the
fremen after all danger of further
spread OF the flames had passed.
Blazing oil on the surface OF the
waste stream flowed into a field in
which the naptha, gasoline and tur-
penine tanks are located, and some
of the fremen had to give their at
tention to II to prevent a further
spread of the fire in that direction.
Several barrels of oil on the pat
forms exploded and added fuel to the
oil on the water. This furnished a
spectacular sight for the big crowds
who watched the fire from that side
of the company's yard"

CHINA'S PERIL.

II is difficult to analyze the news
at this great distance and pick out
the valuable from the worthless, but
II seems that China's great danger is
thought TO arise from the power of
Yuan Sht-kai, minister of war. and
commander of all the troops. He is
one of the powerful mandarins and a
reactionary. He is accused of poison
ing the dowager and the emperor
Prince Chun, regent, it is said. has
divided the troops so that Yuan Shi-
kai's power is cut in half. Chun
seems to be progressive and it is said
the new emperor. Pu VI will be ed
ucated according TO modern methods.
Chun will also Introduce modern
methods in the palace and royal city.
and enforce the constitutional provis-
ions. Another danger arises from
the fact that the dowager, a Manchu.
a foreigner. was never careful about
preserving the lineal ascent to the
throne, and there are pretenders with
legal claims. Also there are reform
ers of various sorts, and revolution
lists; but these probably can be kept
down because they are mostly local
and lacking in organization. funds
and powerful support. II the "ver-

A STANDARD OIL FIRE.

Louisville had an experience with
the Standard Oil company's plant
somewhat similar to that OF Paducah.
and that a confagration In South
Louisville did not result was due en-
tirely to the efforts Of the fire depart
ment. which succeeded in combining
the flames after a desperate fight;
but explosions, burning OF the oil
soaked ground, communication OF
flames through pipes, and even the
blazing oil floating on streams OF
water, were features of what the
Louisville papers call the most spec
tacular fire ever witnessed in the city
in daylight.
