TRUST USURPATION

T RUSTS have seized a word their
use of which in the future may
- cause some confusion. 1t is a
word with which, to represent a worthy
cause, the citizens of Los Angeles are
familiar. 1t is the word "consolida-
ton" A trust is no longer a trust, at
least in name. 1t is a consolidation,
and under this title there has been
formed in the south another huge bust
ness concern.
Until few days ago seventy-five
different fertilizer companies were in
operation and farmers and others had
access to a plentiful supply of fer
tilizer, sold on the competitive prin-
chile, which causes a market price
level to be reached after comparisons,
Examinations and cancellations. The
open market price may be likened unto
sum in simple proportion, and under
natural conditions it should yield the
best and the fairest results.
But the day of the open competitive
market price seems to be drawing to a
close. The number of articles which
are now lildThetSu Will SOlIlS set plan
of regulating the market and establish
ing sellers price without consulting
the buyer is larger than it was a year
ago, and, in spite of antitrust legisla-
ton and sentiment, is becoming larger
as a matter of fact, whatever may be
the conventional view of it.
The new organization in the south
includes seventy-five once Independent
fertilizer companies. Practically the
entire industry, as far as one section of
the country is concerned, is in the COM
bination-a result which approaches
socialism too closely for the comfort Of
conservative minds, for the old saying.
"Extremes meet" applies to the case of
the trusts and socialism.

TAXES ON WOMEN

II OS ANGELES HERALD has called
the attention of its readers to the
- fact that the taxation of womens
gloves and hosiery will have more
marked effect on the political life OF
the country than most tariff legislation
can have There are indeed signs 1t Is
causing more real agitation" than any
tariff measure ever proposed in the his
tory of taxation. The women of this
nation are at last beginning to realize
the tariff is a tax, and their resentment
against the special impost which a
reckless government proposes to levy
on articles regarded by msot women
as necessities of life, and not luXurles'
will give greater impetus to the move
ment for woman suffrage than any
thing that has happened in the last ten
years. while at the same time it Will
serve to impress on the minds OF the
more influential part of our population
which is to say the domestic and vote
less. the fact that the tariff discussion
which women have been in the bahit
of regarding as dry and uninteresting,
is really of the most vital interest.
And the voteless will make the voters
express their resentment.

LOCAL OPTION GAINS

~ PRINGFIELD, OHIO, has voted
- dry. Temperance advocates may
~ well point with exultation to the
gains which their cause has made in
recent years, and it is noticeable that
these gains have come with the new
method of attack which substitutes
an appeal to reason for what many
people call fanaticism. The old-fash-
Toned, root-and- branch prohibition
idea, which repealed many citizens be-
cause of it's positiveness, is yielding to
the local option plan, which is more in
accord with the spirit and temper of
the times, and the people are being
asked to decide for themselves wheth-
er to give or to withhold licenses for
the sale of alcoholic beverages. Before
temperance, which in keeping with it's
title takes a temperate and not a ty-
rannical view of the subject, the habit
of indiscriminate use of alcoholic
liquors is gradually being discontin-
ued.
Many men who would resent the
idea of arbitrary and perpetual pro-
hibition and would vote against it on
general principles, are always ready
and willing to vote mo" when they
are asked to express preference for or
against licensed premises in their ward
or in their city.

ADVENTURES OF
ROOSEVELT

A. SPECIAL correspondent for the
~ Hearst yellow journal syndicate
~ is giving Theodore Roosevelt the
time of his life. This faithful re-
tainer of the Independence leagues
founder evidently has been instructed
to make the public realize Hearst has
hired him to dog the footsteps of the
former president and chronicle his
actions. AS the ordinary actions of
stout, healthy gentleman we'll ad-
vanced in middle age have an invari-
ableness which does not provide ma
terial for sensational or exciting chron-
icle, the special correspondent has
been compelled to Nick-Carterize the
former president.
Already the public has been stirred
up by report of an alleged attempt
of a steerage passenger to assassinate
him, and after this has been declared
by Mr.. Roosevelt to be a foundationless
fake the unabashed special" makes
another descriptive attempt on the life
of the former president by inventing
fc, him a narrow escape from a trag-
ical death by drowning.
1t may be said without hesitation
that the second story is as true as the
first. And if the imagination of the
Hearst chronicler is already stimulated
to a hysterical pitch by the mere fact
of the Rough Rider statesmans voy-
age, to what sublime heights of fake
dom may he not soar when the Roose-
welt party invades the dark land of
ferocious beasts and wild men?

RECALL REVIEWED

NEWSPAPERS in every part of
Nv the United States have reviewed
~ the recall election in Los Angeles.
Some speak wonderingly of the good
results accomplished; some obviously,
but none disparagingly. 1t is evident
the recall principle appeals to the peo-
pie of this nation, who see in it a way
out of official scandals, stories Of
"boodling" and corruption, and the
grating which has disgraced many
American municipalities.
IL an officeholder is not doing his
duty, do not wait until he has com
mitted some dishonest act for which he
may be indicted; but recall him, and
let him submit his case to the, people
If he dare. That is the new way; the
Los Angeles way.
While our contemporaries mean well,
they reveal an amazing lack of knowl-
edge of our metropolis. Some of them
do not realize the city has grown to its
present dimensions. They talk of 1t as
If it had 10000 voters and were in a
condition of wild-and- woolly-western-
ism. The westernism of Los Angeles is
all right 1t is the most progressive
type of Americanism. But some Of our
eastern friends write as if our good
citizens wore long hair and carried
six-shooters.
The Philadelphia Press pictures a
stormy scene of riot and almost blood
shed in the council. BY the Washing
ton Star Mayor Harper is described as
being in wild fight northward in a
speedy automobile, and this paper leads
its readers to infer there is a posse in
mad pursuit and that there may be
gun play.

Des Moines plan is now passing from

adds: at is because it is essentially a
government of the people directly that
it will be bitterly fought in the next
ten years."
The Schenectady IN. W Star is
darkly suspicious. 1t says: 1.-THE
work of the recall will bear watching.
Much can be urged in its favor; but the
proof of the pudding, as ever, must be
in the eating. For which reason Los
