NATIONAL INCORPORATION.

We arc glad TO see that Attorney.
General Wickcrsham has come squarcly
over to the ground occupied by The
Tribune from time 10 time, with re
spect to the National incorporation OF
concerns doing an interstate commerce
business in his speech at Paducah,
kentucky. ON Wednesday, before the
State Bar Association, Attorncy.Gcn-
eral Wickcrsham came out squarcly
for the enactment by Congress OF
poration Of companies that carry on
interstate commerce. Anticipating the
objections that some might urge on
the centralizing tendency of such leg
islation. Mr.. Wickcrsham disposed of
those objections from a legal stand
point. and held that ''such a law
seems 10 be the inevitable result of
economic conditions,
The Attorney General undertook 10
point out 10 States how they could
control outside corporations doing
business within their boundaries. But
fhc difficulties of such control are
very many. He pointed out, however
one practical remedy that he thinks
can be applied by the States at any
time, and that was the forbidding of
the mixing Of corporations and the
holding of the stock of one corporation
by another. This might rule out the
various mergers, holding companies,
etc, that are such lccches upon the
vitality of business. Mr.. Wickersham
suggested that if, at any time, after
a corporation. obtaining license to
than 30 per cent of it's capital stock
was held by another corporation, hat
license should be vacated,
This, however, would be ingeniously
cvadcd in some way by the corpora
/ tions, just rs the corporations have al

States that they have found all along
in undertaking to dca! with corpora
tiors that operate in one State, but

with the organization, records. ETC.
beyond reach of the States that would
act.
There is no doubt but that Attorney
General Wickersham is absolutely
right when he says that the inevi
table result Of economic conditions
points out the necessity of this form
of Congressional action, establishing

THE "FIVE-FOOT SHELF,

\ great deal OF attention has beer
paid TO President EIiot's "fiye-fooi
shelf of books. He got up list of
books to fill that shelf, but there were
such curious omissions in the list that
wonder was everywhere expressed that
he should have made up list of books
without including them-the Bible,
Shakespeare, and some others of the
great classics
But the joke is on those who criti-
cizcd President Eliot. He didn' ( make
mp the list on bis own voliton. 4 pub
fishing house asked him TO make up
such a list from its publications, paid
him for doing so, and gave wide pub
licity 10 the list. Of course, the pub
fishers were too shrewd 10 give their
game away; they didn Z say that the
list was their own, that they had paid
for getting it mp, aud that they stood
prepared 10 furnish the books That
would have been too raw. They simply
advertised il as President Eliot 5 choice,
And thus they have got more free ad-
vcrtisino for their books than theT'
could possibly have had in any other
way
But President Eliot gave the snap
away. lie explains candidly the whole
transactions save that he didn t say
how much ne got; and ii is nobody 5
business but his own what he got, If
he had put out the choice rs his own.

great fame. But he didn I do 1T; the
publishers of the books put IT forth
us his; and as soon as he saw that hls
position in The matter was being wide
IL misunderstood, he made frank
and public explanation.
And the Joke is on those who thought
| that he had made up a list, being his
own choice. for a five foot shelf OF
| books for man of culture and taste.
| He did nothing but what he was paid
TO do, and openly says so, Winch Is
the manly way out of position that
was beginning 10 have difficulties. And
so, nobody need worry any more about
| President Elioi's "five-foot shelf,
nor wonder why he put IN one Dook
and left out another. II was com
niercial transaction altogether. and there
is nothing more to say.

By previous arrangement the entire
day had been set aside for the purpose
of replying to the attack of the Presi-
dent, and the House with the greatest
OF deiberation set about 10 heap upon
the President the most bitter condem-
nation. Republicans and Democrats
joined in common cause to relieve the
House of what was repeatedly declared
to be an unjusthable attack upon its
integrity and a rejection upon its intel

From the moment when Chairman
Perkins, Of the spectaT committee, was
recognized, shortly after the House con-

Correspondence Showing
No Fault

President Roosevelt has arranged
again TO outwtt his arch enemy, Seua-
tor T1uman
Immediately following the announce
ment of 0Ir TuIman that he would
arise in the Senate ON Monday and de-
uounce President Roosevelt for that
part of the Hale report bearing upon
certain Oregon land matters, the uot-
dCation was made at the White House
this afternoon that the sensational re-
port sent TO the Senate, and which
has been carefully kept under lock and
key, VIII be given TO the public before
Tiuman can make his speech.
The fact was disclosed today that
Fiumau's S alleged connection with the
Southern Oregon Company was inves-
tigated by postoHice inspectors and not
Secret Service men.
This was because of charges that the
company was a fraud and the depart
mCnt wished 10 discover whether the
concern was entitled TO the use of the
malls.

made on him By the President today

he was aware the President has men

not make reply until he had had time TO
90 into the allegations made I'm detail
Then he would answer on the floor OF
the Senate.
The Senator said he considered IT a
grave thing for The Chief Executive Of
the United States to make an attack of
this sort
That Oregon Deal.

ator Tillman said he had had dealings
with a certain Oregon law firm. Tie
