Wall-st Preserves

You ought to be informed as to what Wall street
thought OF Taft's message suggesting legislation
for control of the trusts. Maybe you'll think that
you not interested, but you'll discover that you
are if you'll just recoeat how, in 1907 Wall street
took extraordinary prosperity out Of your mouth and
replaced it with the ashes of panic.
Well, here, in quotation marks, are some words
warm and direct from Wall street:
THE financial world passed judgment on Presi-
dent Tafts message and found it favorable to high
er prices. What Wall street considers the strong
est feature of the message is the evident determna
ton OF the administration to preserve the integrity
of American investments Now that the gover,l-
ment intends to see that stock is issued except
for value received, great flood of European money
must come to America. This determination of the
government also gives something of a monopoly to
existing corporations. 1t will be difficult to build
railroads start trusts since the proposed
law will be retroactive, those combinations now
doing business having tremendous advantage
Keep in your mind that term to preserve the
integrity of American Investments for no house
wife, presidents trusts ever put up juicer
lot of preserves.
When, perhaps you voted to have Taft inherit
Roosevelts policies, you thought the war on great
mergers was to be prosecuted. A halt was to be call
ed on great railroad combines made to squeeze eXor-
bitant rates out of you everything you ate,
or used in any other way, through the throttlng of
competition. WE'LL when St George Taft came to
calling halt on the merger dragon, he took counsel
of j. p. Morgan, lord of the dragons bedchamber
and nine railroad presidents wet of the beast
and instead of puncturing the dragon with his
Rooseveltan lance he gave birth to the idea that
railroad shouldn't be permitted to swallow another
UNLESS it already owned more than majority of
the stock in it.
You see the heavenly appropriateness of tn e
term preserving the integrity of American invest
ments.' don't you? Anyhow, Morgan and his nine
railroad mogus it and went back to Wall street
feeling we'll preserved
The Taft idea isn't retroactive. Oh, no! All the
legislation about the evils of combination of com
peting lines in balderdash set aside by this new law
giving exclusive cnch to trusts that have already
violated every consideration on Gods earth save
those of greed and tyranny
Wall street raises prices! 1t will be difficult to
build new railroads 1t will be hard to start new
trusts And European capital will pour I'M Ye
gods! it ought to- for if there were large usc
Gus, exclusive melons to cut, Umpire Morgan and
his baseball team of railroad presidents will have
'em.
And, dear reader you are the juice that's being
preserved in those melons!
