AN UNENfORCED LAW

The following is the criminal
clause of the antitrust law:
Every contract, combination
in the form of trust or otherwise.
or conspiracy, in restraint of
trade or commerce among the
several states or with foreign
nations, is hereby declared to be
illegal. Every person who shall
make any such contract or en-
gage in any such combination
or conspiracy shall be deemed
guilty of a misdemeanor. and. on
conviction thereof, shall be punt
shed by fine not exceeding five
thousand dollars, or by imprison-
ment not exceeding one year, or
by both said punishments, in the
discretion of the court. "
1t will be noticed that the pen
itentiary term is only one year.
Compare that with the punish
ment for horse stealing in various
states and see how much more
tenderly the law deals with trust
magnates who plumber a nation
than with the man who steals a
horse, and yet no trust magnate
has suffered criminal punishment
under that law yet. That is the
law into which the supreme court
recently wrote the word ''un-
reasonable" The Commoner in
sists that it would be practically
impossible to convict a trust
magnate criminally under that
law with the word unreasonable

In reality the Standard Oil case

involved no question of law
least of all a new question of law.
1t involved fact and practice.
Were the methods and practices
of the corporation such as to re-
strain or monopolize trade COM
merce? The supreme court of
the United States answers these
questions in the affirmative, and
the strongest industrial corpora
ton in the world must bow to the
law, precisely as the labor union
must bow to the law.
With a long line of decisions
to guide it. why should the gov
eminent of the United States con-
tinue to treat the Sherman law
as an experimental statute. neces-
stating new Interpretation
whenever a case arises involving
an alleged violation of the act?
Why should it not take it's evil
dence before a grand jury, as it
does in al other criminal cases,
and follow the same procedure
as in the case of John Doe who
is accused of making moonshine
whisky? No restraint AZ orders
az Issued against Ja4a Goc. He
is not hailed into court to show
cause why his distillery should
not be closed by reason of it's vio-
lation of the internal-revenue
laws. We are quite unable to
see why a different course should
be pursued with trusts that vio-
late the Sherman act.
We are told that the business
of the country can not be con-
Quoted if this statute is enforced.
This is equivalent to saying that
the business of the country con-
sists of combinations and con-
spiracies in restraint Of trade,
and that the only way to carry
on trade is to restrain trade.
Business that is dependent on
such practices ought not to be
conducted, and in the long run
the country will be the better off
without it.
Chief Justice White declared
in his opinion that the Sherman
law gees no further than the
common law. Business which
can not conform to the common
law has outlawed itself.
Potentially Mr.. Taft and Mr..
Wickersham have won a tremen-
deus victory in the court of last
resort, but whether or not this
victory serves a great public pur-
pose depends upon the uses to
which it is put. If corporations
that violate the antitrust law
may purge themselves by re-
organization after the illegality
of their practices is established,
and then proceed about their
business as before, the Sherman
act will forever be rope of sand
But if the act is enforced in its
entirety big business will bend
to it.
This decision should mean the
end of test cases. Big business
knows what the law is and it has
very able attorneys who know
what the law is. If it delibera-
tely violates the law let it be
treated like any other criminal.
Guilt is personal. If the
United States government will
sternly hold to that principle and
apply it to all violations of the
Sherman act. big business will
soon be as active ir finding ways
to respect the law as it has here
tofore been in finding ways to
evade the law. Even a John D
Rockefeller would rather adjust
his commercial practices to the
provisions of the Sherman act
than go to jail. "

DEMOCRATS HAVE
HOPE OF SUCCESS
Congressman Flood Returns
From Campaign Tour of
New Mexico.

!, Although hampered by lack of cam
paiEn funds and by other handicaps.
the Democrats OF New Mexico have n
good chance to elect their candidates
for all State Offices and for Congress
in the election of November T. This
Is the opinion of Representative II. D.
FLOOD. OF the Tenth Virginia District,
who has Just returned from cam
paign In the Territory that is about TO
become State. Mr.. Flood spent yes
terday In Richmond.
@ W. c. Mcdonald, the Democratic
nominee for Governor, is regarded as
strong candidate, while some charges
made against Judge Bursum, the Re
publican candidate, it is believed, will
serve TO weaken him. The Legislature.
which will be chosen, will elect two
United States Senators, who will be
OF Its political complexion. and who
VIII take their seats in Washington
during the coming session. For this
reason the Democrats are making
every effort 10 win the initial fight.
The Territory also votes on an
providing how future amendments
may be made. AS originally proposed,
future changes in the organic law
would have been made almost impos-
6iblc.
Mr.. Floods tour of New Mexico was
pm t'.s nature of triumphal process
sion Aside from his speeches for the
democratic nominees, he was hailed By
men of all parties as the real father
OF statehood for New Mexico. One
newspaper proposes that the State ap-
propriate money for monument to
him. AS chairman of the Committee
on Territories OF the present House Of
Representatives. he framed what was
known as the Flood resolution, which
was vetoed by President Taft and
later passed in such form as suited the
executives wishes.
As soon as the results of the eloc
tion of November are officially as
certatned. they Will be certified TO the
president. who Will at once ;ssue n
proclamation declaring New Mexico to
4 be State. This will probably be
done by December l. The two repre-
!Rentatives will go to Washington and
take their seats. while the Senators
will be elected later.
Mr.. Flood did not go 10 Arizona.
The election there will take place o,
December ~, and 1t is supposed 1t will
also be clase between the parties.
although Arizona is more naturally
inclined to be Democratic than is New
Mexico. In Arizona the people must
vote to eliminate the recall of Judges
from tGe Constitution before 1t can
be admitted as State 1t is said
that they arc almost certain to do this
and will probably vote 1t back as
soon as possible.

Peeling the Face
From Modern HousekccpinpA

VI ioiH NiOuetll housekeeping
Women are beginning to realize how
dangerous and how unnecessary is the
painful and expensive surgical operation
known as "face-peeling. Many clever
society women noted for their exquisite
beauty accomplish the desired result
themselves at home, with perfect safety
and no pain, expense or detention indoors.
hey simply use ordinary mcrcolizcd wax,
which can be obtained at almost any drug
store. 1t is applied at night like cold
cream and washed off in the morning.
The mercolized wax slowly absorbs the
half .dead outer skin, causing it to flake
off day by day in fine, almost impcr-
cePtible particles like flour. The fresh,
vigorous young skin underneath soon
shows forth, blooming radantly with
health and beauty. The face begins TO
look years younger, though the use of the
process absolutely dehes detection by the
closest observer.
Naturally this process also removes all
tsauch minor facial blemshcs as frccklcs,
tan, moth patches liver spots, fine wrin-
.kles, pimples, etc.
