ONE LAW THEY FEAR,
sherman Antitrust Law nm Effec-
tive One.
New York World.


New York World.
Whenever the members of a monopolistic
conspiracy came face to face with the
Sherman antitrust law they show unmis-
taxable signs of fright. A mere threat Of
its enforcement throws prospective defend
ants into terror. Proceedings actually be-
gun under It in any case make conserv-
alive business men turn pale and develop
in Wall street all OF the symptoms OF
panic.
This law covers precisely the ground that
its authors had in view. 1t forbids COM
bination and conspiracies in restraint of
trade, and, like any other criminal statute,
provides severe penalties for those who
disobey and every principal of right justice
contained in 1t is derived from the common
law. Even It's language has been familiar
to EnGlish-s speaking people for generations
The fact that this law Is held in such
| dread proves two things-one that as a
people we are in the habit OF engaging in
business practices long outlawed, and the
other, that measure wise and necessary
has never been consistently enforced. II
this law had been applied honestly and
| fearlessly from the first, the people would
have escaped many wrongs and expressions
Few questioned the justice of the Sher-
man act when 1t was passed It was only
after years Of license had been extended
to commercial and Industrial rapacIty that
| there grew up q business element which
found respectable support for the iconten-
tion that the law is ruinously drastic and
| impossible of execution.
The Sherman antitrust law ought to be
enforced to the letter. 1t Is pettifogger-
proof and monopoly-prOof 1t was honestly
drawn. 1t needs only to be honestly en-
forced. There is no other remedy for the
offense at which 1t was aimed.

"As for things out in Nebraska, well,
It hardly seems reasonable to elect q
democrat to congress from e republican
district In Massachusetts, because Of high
prices for farm products in Nebraska and
also elect a democrat In a republican dis
trrict in Nebraska because Of the high
price OF manufactured articles in MGssa-

pect to remain one. / was born in Ne

THE liquor fight in Nebraska is q
fight primarily for county option; in
others words making the county the unit
Of local option. instead of the municipality.
The only bearing 1t could have on the
congress situation would be in regard to
the federal law. Personally 1 am IN favor
of a federal law to prevent the shipment
of liquor into dry territory under any
cover or shield such as the interstate COM
MERGE law. But In my opinion every right
thinking person would be glad to see the
liquor question settled and free from the
machination Of politics. 1t ought not to be
determined by and under the conditions
that surround politics any more than is
absolutely necessary.
II think the republican party in its
principles and performances Is DO far
superior to anything the democratic party
has ever done that It will hold together,

in the party platform or in the laws

II feel safe In saying, however, that
with nine-tenths of the republicans OF
Nebraska there is feeling against the
reelection Of Speaker Cannon, who is
regarded as an obstacle to the growth Of
the republican party. They know OF no
reason why Cannon In his position should
be held sacred by the republican party or
by any member Of 1t.
'As for the tariff, the republicans of
Nebraska are not entirely satisfied with
the tariff bill; nor, on the other hand, are
they ready to condemn II in its entirety.
There are certain schedules, such as that
of wool, which they believe should have
been lowered. Personally I believe in a
tariff commission to gather facts scienti-
fically and accurately on which to base
future reduction In such a way as to
comply exactly with the requirements of
the Chicago platform, to cover the differ
ence In the cost Of production at home and
abroad. and yet in such way as to do as
little violence as possible to established
business.

cal humiliation advocated and fought for
the 2-cent passenger law, law providing

I'm the convention OF 1900, which nomi-

we're very active in their opposition to
these men and those measures have men,
toned and as the result of their opposi-
ton were defeated. These have assumed
to themselves the title Of insurgents or
progressives The latter term has NOT
been very applicable to them, the reason
being that they never progressed until the
remainder OF the party had got so far
ahead of them that they had to double
quick in order to catch UP. They now pre-
tend to be in the vanguard.
That is the situation in Nebraska
