Washington Post.

Senator Stone, of Missouri. ever
watchful during the debate in the
senate TO score any little partisan
point. no matter how innnitesimal Il
may be, undertook to Grub in on
the Republican leaders the fact that
the Democratic convention at Denver
had declared for the submission of a
constitutional amendment on the in
come tax. and to accuse the Republi-
cans of appropriating the idea.
He said, as he looked at Senator
Brown, of Nebraska, that the latter
had been given credit for the author
ship of the resolution upon which the
senate was about to vote. but he add
ed that he wanted to express the hope
that the senator would not omit in
forming the people of the country
that he appropriated the idea from a
Democrat. and a distinguished citizen
of his state. This direct reference to
Mr. Bryan caused Senator Brown, OF
Nebraska, to ask:
"Does the gentleman from Mis-
.souri complain of the source of the
idea?"
"oh, no." replied Mr.. Stone. 81
am not complaining. 7 am congratu-
lating the senator on having gone to
that source"
well, does the senator from Mis-
souri, complain because the idea has
oeen appropriated ?'asked Mr.. Brown,
without smiling.
mot at ALL" responded Mr.. Stone.
81 am glad that the Republican party
has gone to the Democratic platform
for It's idea. repeat that / am con-
graduating the senator"
Well" said Mr.. Brown. docs not
the senator from Missouri know that
il anything good in any Democratic
platform is ever to benefit the people
of the United States 1t must be appro-
priated by somebody"
And Mr.. Brown as solemnly sat
down again.

corporation, known as holding
company. organized in New Jersey.
This holding company possessed the
stock OF all corporations in the states
in which they did business. and the
whole combination was known as a
trust: because the holding company
acted in the capacity of a trustee.
That accounts for the scores of sub
sidary corporations Of the Standard
Oil company, of New Jersey
Against this form of combination
small fry politicians and legislators
have raved and ranted. Like the
quack doctor, who recognized the
presence of a fever and a headache
in his patient and resorted to an ice
pack to reduce the temperature and
a powder to cure the headache, while
the producing cause of both was be-
yond his comprehension; these legis-
lators have enacted all sorts of penal
measures, designed to put the trusts
in the penitentiary.
The sagacious statesmen studied
the organization of trusts. Some peo-
pie complained because the national
administrations persisted in calling
corporation lawyers TO the cabinet;
but Roosevelt and Taft were wise.
They wanted men, who understood
the nature of the monsters with
which they had to deal. and the re-
suit was the frank declaration last
night at the Kentucky theater by At
torney General Wickersham that a
simple remedy is within the power of
every state, which will destroy
these combinations.
The holding company" is the bac-
terra. which produces the trust. A
law. which will render the holding
company plan abortive, will destroy
the trusts. The remedy is simple.
He suggests the enactment of a law,
prohibiting any foreign corporation
doing business in the state. fifty per
cent of whose stock is owned by an
other corporation.
That was the sum and substance
of his speech last night. He is a
thorough lawyer, and he proved all
his steps az he went along by eta
tions of authority. Like all other
men. who have been engaged in the
federal fight on the trusts. he sees
plainly the necessity for federal SUI
pervision of interstate corporations
State control is limited when 1t comes
to interstate commerce. The federal
government by the corporation in
come tax will compel the publicity of
corporation accounts, a measure that
will do much to relieve certain in
dustrial stocks of their resemblance
to pair OF loaded dice, and will pave
the way for national incorporation
to do interstate business That will
be better for the corporations and the
people, and save many legislators
from the temptation to accept brides

MR.. TAFT IN THE ROLE OF A
GLACIER.

GLACIER.
Mr.. LaFollette. unfortunately is a
radical: and therefore. is entirely
wrong quite as often as he Is almost
right. We applauded him in his OPP
position to Aldrich's attempt to bunco
the people on the tariff: but when he
attacks the administration for its
corporation income tax, a coup by
which President Taft trapped the
senator from Rhode Island snto sane
.tioning the first step in that corpor-
ate CONTROL. which brought down on
the devoted head Of Theodore ROose-
welt the bitter hatred of the whole
Standard OIL crowd. he is only prov
ing his unfitness for leadership of
any great movement.
Mr.. Taft moves as slowly, almost
as imperceptibly, but quite as irresist-
IDLY as a glacier, and when his eight
years are ended, the whole political
character of this national govern
ment, and Industrial conditions, in so
far as they are related to politics,
will be changed permanently Fossils
of defunct mammoths may be found
by digging deep; but they will be
valuable only as exhibits, by which
we may trace the development OF our
industrial Democracy; and the tropi-
cal luxuriance of the wealth getting
combinations, viii be but legend
preserved in the current numbers OF
the popular magazines. We fear that
Senator LaFollette's carcass will be
found sticking in the glacial mud
and may be mistaken for a parasite
in the hide OF one OF the defunct
mammoths, instead Of one Of the con-
structive statesmen of the period
But such is fate and thus does geol-
ogy treat us all.
