If the industrial combinations are
responsible for the high prices, then
the way to go about correction of
the situation is through the orderly
processes of government, which is the
duly accredited agent of organized
society, philosophises the Springfield
Republican. Has government, then,
broken down amongst us? Have its
powers failed and must the people
reassume in this fashion what they
had delegated to their government?
Then indeed may it be said that am
archy is upon us, and nothing could
so clearly exemplify situation pos
sessing an anarchistic drift than these
high-price boycotts. If they do not
prove to be absolutely idle and use
less, as is likely, they might possibly
become dangerous There ought to
be individuality enough left in the
average American citizen to deal with
this matter-so far as 1t is to be dealt
with outside of government action
ON family and individual basis. Let
each one strive to adjust his expenses
to the capacity of his pocket; that will
prove quite as effective against any
trust over-charging that may be go
ing on as organizing clubs and passing
around pledges not to eat this and
not to wear that. A queer light is
thrown upon latter-day American
character when men must have the
moral support Of association with a
lot Of others in order to obtain
strength enough to practice the econ-
Omies which their incomes demand.
