"a TRUST Question.

The CoHnelisville Courier has the
following to say about trusts:
The 6hreatened dissolution OF
humorous so-called trusts raises a
Question of far-reaching importance.
not only TO capital, but also to la
dor.
The principle upon which it is
proposed to dissolve the Trusts and
resolve them back into their original
elements IS the ancient and honor
able rule that combinations in re-
straint OF trade are unlawful
The question arises, When is a
Trust not a Trust2
The modern trust is merely a big
corporation, usually built up by
combination and absorption. How
big must a corporation or combine
ton of capital become to he classified
as a trust? Where shall the line be
drawn?
In answering these questions we
are confronted with process of rea-
soning which logically followed
proves that all corporations and
partnerships are trusts differing
merely in size and not principle.
Without the large combinations of
capital which went to make up large
corporations, this nation would have
remained poor and provincial in
stead OF becoming a World Power.
The Indians and the buEaIoes would
have been roaming over the west
ern plains and the development of
our rich natural resources would
have been confined chiefly to sections
reached by navigable waters.
