A MOST significant statement was
made by that eminent master OF cor
poration, Samuel c. Untermyer, in
his address to the National Civic
Federation last week. Mr. Inter
mver tavors federal regulation OF the
trusts, deemirg it unfeasible and
undesirable TO attempt to prohibit
such combinations in restraint of
trade. But he seemed to point very
briefly to one cflacious remedy when
he said
Possibly the fact that England is
a free trade country has had much
to do with it's freedom from all
forms of trusts and combinations.
The incentive to combine the indus
tries of a country is not so great
when the combined company must
any event compete with other coun-
tries"
England has no trust problem and
is the only great nation that has
not, for the simple reason that it is
the only free trade nation, Mr. I'm
termver's remarks are conclusive
affirmation Of the great unacceptable
fact that the tariff is the mother of
the trusts If the people of the
United States really desire relief
from the exactions of excessive mo-
nopolies they can secure it by abol-
ishing the tariff subsidy which has
built them up

DEAD men are only fit to inhabit
cemeteries If they are decently
dead, dead all over we tenderly lay
them away in the sleep Of the tomb;
but if they are dead to all the enter
prise ont of the narrow plane Of
their own interests and vet persist
in walking around, moving their
dry bones. caloused hearts and con-
sciences where real business is wont
to throb and pulse with vigor, they
are only like the drone bee, in the
way until they are stung to death
and dragged outside the hive of le-
gitimate industry. Twenty real live
men are worth more to the public
generally than a round full thous-
and of useless material that lies
around like rubbish in a rising
stream that is aching and foaming
to turn mills and factories. Yes,
live men bless, and dead men curse
a town.

THE One Cent Letter Postage AS
sociation has been formed with the
avowed purpose of conducting a
vigorous campaign among business
men for the promotion of a senti-
ment demanding a reduction in the
first class postage rate from two
cents TO one cent for each ounce or
fraction thereof The association
points out that the government is
collecting about 81 cents per pound
for carrying letters, the cost of
which service is probably less than
halEthat sum. The actual profit to
the government on first class mat
ter is said to be 66.9 percent, The
association which is urging lower
first class rates contends that there
is an unjust discrimination in the
government collecting 81 cents a
pound for first class mail while it
carries second class mail for one cent
a pound. ltis not to be lost sight
Of however, that the people at large
profit bv cheap postage rates for
second class mail, Were publishers
compelled to pay a much high.r rate
than at present, the day of cheap
newspapers and cheap magazines
would be ended. That second class
mail can be hauled at a profit at one
cent a pound is evidenced by the
fact that the express companies are
glad to transport periodicals at the
government rate. Were the exorbi-
tant sums paid the railroads for the
transportation of mail reduced to a
reasonable level, other extrava-
gances and abuses of the post office
department weeded out, and n par
GELS post system installed, there is
little reason TO doubt that the first
class postage rate could be reduced
to one cent an ounce and the second
class rate left at the present figure
without mourning a deficit.

Commercial centers are prosper.
Gus and important in proportion as
they have adequate, efficient, and
cheap transportation. This Is as
true of a country town with a sin
gle railroad line as it is OF a coun-
trv's metropolis with half a hundred
great railroad systems pouring their
tonnage into its terminals and with
the ships of all the seven seas un-
loading their cargoes at its wharves
1t is an axiom that good ample,
and cheap transportation actually
makes commerce The country
town which has no railroad always
wants one. The hamlet which has
no post office is forever riding the
neck of its congressman until it gets
one. Great cities vote millions to
build artificial harbors, to provide
artificial wharfage, and to increase
every possible facility for cheap and
rapid transportation.
There are no communities which
need improvement OF transportation
so much as the country towns which
have been misled into opposing the
parcels post. The country mer-
chant has been made 70 believe that
the parcels post would take his
business away from him and give it
to the mail-order house in the great
city. 1t would do nothing of the
kind. On the contrary, it would
give the country merchant the one
facility which he does not have now;
it would place him on a parity with
the merchant in the great city
Quick, cheap transportation would
enable him to buy better and cheap
er, He could sell many articles
from catalogue instead of having to
carry them in stock He could Gre
ate a mail-order business of his own
in MS surrounding territory. The
local merchant who conducts his
business well has nothing to fear
from the mailorder house, Far
mcrs and citizens prefer dealing with
the home man, and the parcels post
will give him many advantages that
will enable him to increase his trade
to proportions which are now i'm
possible Prom an editorial in the

A TERRIFIC calamity howl went up
from the big financial interests when
the platform of the Denver conven-
tion in 1908 advocated the bringing
of the national banks under a sys-
TEN to guarantee deposits, 1t was
denounced as rank banking heresy,
and President Taft, then a candi-
date, denounced it as proposal
that would bring the whole bank
ing system of the country down in
ruins" While the national banks
of the country were refused permis-
sion by the comptroller of the cur
rencv in 1909 to join the western
state banks in any guaranty plan,
Oklahoma, Nebraska and Kansas
have had such a plan in operation
for several years. These, notwith-
standing the portentous predictions
when the system first went into op-
Grafton, have been successful in
every sense, The plan was first
given nation wide advocacy by Mr.,
Bryan, and the recent decision of
the United States Supreme Court
upholding the constitutionality of
the laws under which the system
was established is a moral victory
for the Nebraska Commoner, The
western states show no political
division in the endorsement Of the
bank guaranty now, and the inno-
walton is Of general popularity.

THE Republican majority Of thirty
in the Senate year ago has dwin-
died down to very small proper
tons; so much so that, with the
Democratic legislatures of Maine,
Colorado, Montana and Nebraska
returning Democrats to fill the va
cancies that will be caused by the
expiration Of the terms Of Repub-
lican senators from those states
which will expire within the next
two years, it will require but one
more Democrat, from any state, to.
make the senate Democratic in
1913. The outlook is brightly Dem
ocratic, 1t all depends upon how
the party fulhlls its pledges to the
people whether or not there will be
a government Democratic in all its
branches after 1912.

with years % experience The rules say
that the clocker shall take the flash Of
the gun. and TO n man they all say that
is their way Of timing. on one occasion.
though, a change ia the atmospheric con-

conclusive evidence that the crack timers
were starting their watches from the sound
Of the gun and not from the flash This
occasion was one OF the his dual meets in
the Harvard stadium and the event was
the 30 yard run. The heats were run IN
pretty fair time. but some gossip was
aroused when II was found that the final
was run a fun second faster than the best
Of the heats.
