LEGALIZE THE
BIG TRUSTS
IS Startling Proposal That Comes
From Washington

istence combination in restraint OF
trade which once had been legalized
by congress, and had based its move
ments and business for a time on the
guarantees thus conveyed.
1t is realized here, therefore, that
the validating of unobjectionable
trusts so called is probably the one
big issue to differentiate the two
parties in the coming conflict. unless
1t were to come to pass that the DEM
ocratic masses saw the matter as the
president sees it had determined to
make no fight on his proposals.
However, it is well understood in
Washington that the president has
not yet perfect assurance that the
members of his own party in congress
will consent to enact his proposed
bill.
Competition has always been re-
garded as the life of trade" legiti-
mate trade, and as the safeguard
against those who would if they could
take from the consumer more than
legitimate profits. The English COM
mon law recognizes the principle Of
competition; it is ingrained in the
very texture Of the legal system of
the country, in federal and state laws.
The enactment of the Sherman
antitrust law a score of years ago
was the capitalization of thought on
that subject. The soundness of the
Sherman laws fundamental princi-
Piles never has been called in question
seriously-so far as the general pub
lie is concerned-until within the last
few months.
Absolute reversal is propOsed-that
combinations in restraint of trade be
permitted. provision to be made
for the executive branch to differen-
tiate between combinations good and
bad.
Herein is the one phase-the over
throw of the fundamental principle
of competition as a social necessity
and herein is the acceleration of the
Capitalization tendency-that Ques-
tions as to whether combinations are
good or bad for society shall be left
to the executive to decide.
Stripped of biased argument. the
foregoing is looked on here as the
present matter at issue between the
parties. 1t is certain that tense
strife will ensue; perhaps it may be
even yet rescued from partizan con
tention, and considered on its merits

RIOTING IN PORTUGAL

LISBON, Portugal, April 5.-The
elections here today, which we're con-
Quoted peaceably, with the exception
of minor disorders in some OF the dis
affected districts. were followed to-
night by serious rioting. which was
only put down by most vigorous ac-
ton on the part of the police and
troops. The riotlng broke out in diff
ferent parts Of the city. as though by
preconcerted plan. Troops which
had been patrolling and others that
had been held In reserve were imme-
diately ordered into action and they
repeatedly charged mobs that In
places filled the streets, but without
effect. The rioters used clubs, stones
and whatever other weapons we're at
hand. and finally the troops were
obliged to fire upon them. killing and
wOunding a number.
The determined action on the part
of the authorities seemed to have the
desired effect, and shortly the mObs
were well dispersed. At a late hour
most OF the republican voters had
gone to their homes. but bands OF
youths continued to demonstrate be-
fore the churches. They confined
their disorders to shouting. however.
and a recurrence of serious disturb
ances during the remainder Of the
night did not seem possible.
Electors Suspect Cheating.
With the exception Of minor dis
orders at AMOS and Aleantara. the
elections passed OF quietly through
the country. so far as the present dis
patches indicate. Slight disturbances
occurred during the day in certain
sections. owing TO the number Of cleo
tors who suspected unfair methods
were being adopted. There was
much deriding OF the public. but the
latter did not hesitate 70 scatter the
crowds with a strong arm.
