The high school board decided to have
3 year latin course and we have quite
large class in Cicero this year. The
board has desire to build the course
to a standard which will admit our
pupils to universities with full accredited
standing.
School opened Monday under very
favorable conditions with an enrolment
of It's. We will be glad when our new
seats arrive as some students have to
use boxes for desks.
The high school has enrolled Al with
several more to come. Our enrolment
will be the largest in the history of the
school,
The teaching force of the school are
very desirous of having a good school
this year and will appreciate the cordial
cooperation of all parents in securing
not only perfect attendance of pupils
but regular and reasonable study hours
at home.
The boys of the high school reorgan-
lied their athletic association Wednes-
day evening. electing the following of
iicers: Vern Troutman Pres, Ralph
Anderson Sec'y and Byron Akin Treas.
1t was decided to confne their athletics

merely by invoking the terms of this sweeping enactment. Everybody knows that this is true And because it is true every attorney general has proceeded with great caution in the inita- tion of prosecutions. Mr. Knox when he began the famous suit against the Northern Securities company, announced that the government would not run amuck among the trusts-a policy that has ever since been pursued. Nor is it at all likely that the government, flushed with it's Standard Oil victory, will proceed to enforce the dissolution of every combination of capital or ganized in contravention of the law
 The reason is plain. It is that governmental policy, even under Mr. Roosevelt ran counter to the prohibitions of the Sherman law. Tn the modern business world" said Mr. Roosevelt in one of his messages, with his characteristic dog matlsm, combinations are absolutely neces- sary." This is view widely prevalent just now, and it is substantially that held by Presi- dent Taft. Correlative with it is the belief, or hope, that great corporations can be induced or compelled to render valuable public service without oppression or extortion Thus the trust policy of the government tends in a direction other than that contemplated by the Sherman act which was intended to destroy rather than to protect and control. Regulation, not destruc- ton, IS the keynote of that policy, and the Sher- man law stands somewhat in the way of it. In fact, the whole trust question, so far as govern mental action is concerned, revolves about the point whether capitalistic combinations should be permitted under sanction of law or absolute ly forbidden by statute. This point has been

LEGISLATIVE LOBBIES

There is renewed discussion in Massachusetts concerning the legislative lobby. The sworn statement of one professional lobbyist shows that hereceived from various corporations dur ing the last session some $3, 300 in fees, besides two salaries not stated. Thus it appears that he was able to pay for three square meals day in the vicinity of the statehouse and perhaps save little besides Another lobbyist acknowledges having received from one railroad company $19,OO0 for his work during the last session. These are figures from two agents alone that in dicate the expenditure of other amounts for oth- CT purposes not specified. It is asserted that the lobby in Boston has grown rapidly in prosperity and importance during the past five years. Their work has been extended to influence nominations and to affect the rural press
 There have been made similar statements con. corning the lobbyists at Albany and Harrisburg, while the misdeeds of the third house at other state capitals have become notorious. These revelations are periodic, but without doubt they are at least temporarily wholesome, and their repetition IS essential. But they may be dis couraging to those who would check the tend. ency to turn to the congress to meet local de- mands for legislation, and who would turn back more of this work to the state legislatures But as they grow in importance. these bodies may also acquire higher dignity and may attract bet ter and more publc-spirited service.
