Quincy is naturally located and
adapted for a large manufacturing

find out Just what class of manufac-

The Springfield Republican ought to
be ashamed OF Itself. not for anything
that 1t has done particularly that
would identify It with the criminal
class, but because of its memory with
which II is inclined ct times to i'm
press the Court. In the last number of
The Commoner, Mr. Bryan expresses
some very pronounced and rather
savlgrous views touching the opinion
of the United States Supreme Court In
the Standard OIL case, Tie declares
that by this decision the Court has
huildci IN bulwark around the preda :
tory corporations" Notwithstanding
the fact that by this decision and the
subsequent decision in the tobacco
case the Court has smashed two of The
greatest trusts in restraint of trade in
this country. Brother Bryan holds to
Justice Hnrlan's view-not In the Holy
Trinity Church case, but his view in
the Trans Missouri case and in the
Standard Oil case. The point that tho
Springfield paper makes Is this: If
every combination OF capital what3o-
ever, engaged in intergtate trade
should be declared comb,na ton in
restraint of trade within the intend
ment of the Sherman Antitrust
Act. why did Mr.. Bryan in 1908 favor
a Federal enactment which would havo
admitted to Interstate commerce com
hinations which control not more than
90 per cent. of a given industry. and
IL tho Antitrust Law, properly inter-
preted-as. sny. by the prevailing
opinion in tho Northern Securities case
is sufficient, why has Mr., Bryan adj
vocated substitute Legislation In regu-
lation OF capitalistic combinations" We
do not know. hut we arc cock sure that
