EFFECT or THE TRUST DECISIONS.

cTa O what extent he antitrust law, as now finally interpreted by
the United States supreme Court, is a correction of the evil
of restraint of trade and monopoly which penalties the people
of the country to hundreds Of millions annually is problematical.
The decision by the Supreme Court in the Standard Oil case was
disappointing. The effect of the decision in the tobacco trust case
is in dispute. The trust is condemned as a monopoly in restraint
of trade and its case is relegated back to the Circuit Court to find
some way to make its restraint of trade not unreasonable The
decision does not alarm the trust members or send trust stocks
down. There is a tone of deep qualification in the comments of those
in sympathy with trust interests. But the law. even as amended
by the Supreme Court, has lost none OF its vitality. For years after
it was enacted the most astute lawyers could see no life in il. They
believed it was perfectly harmless. There is reason 10 believe
that graz and learned senators who voted for The act did so only
in that belief. So the trust lawyers who now believe that the in
terpretations of the Supreme Court really constitute a license for
trusts that do not excessively hog it may likewise be mistaken.
In any event the two decisions have recreated the trust issue in
politics and legislation.

Persona, Elems.t In Justice.

To the Editor OF the Evening Star:
The more I watch legal procedure In
tho treatment OF criminals the more
am l convinced that there is something
radically wrong with the way we dis
pose Of the average criminal. On the
days when the Judge passes out his
sentences ne sits for a few hours grind.
haps never thinking OF the effect on
the prisoner. The punishment is not
melted out according to the individu-
atty Of each offender. It is done in
accordance with a fixed law that is
supposed to tit each crime.
1t is in that particular that our sys-
tenn OF punishment fails. II the aver
age Judge were asked why he says six
months in one cas- ten years In
another the first thing he would say
would be that that is the law, and
then would most likely say that it is
done to cure the criminal of his
vicious p~ropensities. AS II he could pos
sibly know in advance that a certain
time in prison would cure a man. II
would be just as logical for a physi-
clan to send a person to a hospital for
a Definite period and order in advance
that he be released, say in three weeks
In the end we see that a large num-
Der of criminals come back. II we
study this matter carefully we note
that certain conditions accompany
What We term crime waves" Remove
these conditions and the crime wave
Is sure to disappear. But we do not
take the trouble to study these condi-
lions AT all. The average criminal
Is not OF SUFFICIENT Importance to us 10

when it comes nearer home, when a
member OF our immediate family is un-
fortunate enough to fall that we begin

DiAz LEAVES HIS NATIVE SHORES.

EPOSED President Diaz departed from his country today,
Nv probably never to see it again. 1T would be interesting to
record his reflections as he looked back from the steamer
upon the receding shores OF his native land, whose people had just
sent him into exile after he had ruled them for thirty years. Were
his forced resignation and exile just? Impartial history will an
swer. Daz did much for Mexico that was for lis good. but he knew
better how 10 suppress lawlessness and construct a strong govern
ment than he did how TO make the people prosperous and happy.
He wore the title of president when he was virtually a dictator and
despot. He saw great evils in The social fabric and never tried to
reform them. Mexico under his rule has been two-thirds slave. and
Daz approved and maintained that social system. In brief. after
thirty years of power Daz was overwhelmed by the results Of his
style of governing and compelled TO flee the country like every
other Latin American despot who has got 10 the end Of his rope.
Perhaps as Daz looked back to Mexico as he was leaving it today
the thought of what might have been embittered his reflections.
He might have been another Washington or Lincoln.

A PATRIOTIC MEMORIAL DAY.

traction was the presence of Roosevelt. But there was observable
yesterday 4 different spirit from that which characterized former
Memorial Day celebrations. 1t would seem from the aspect OF the
streets that nobody had left town and hat the town had received
some temporary accessions of population. The popular interest dis
played in The ranks of Civil War veterans as they swept By far
exceeded that for the National Guard, 1t was clear that the sig
nifcance of the celebration was uppermost in peoples minds. 70
many there was pathos in he march of the Veterans, not 10 be many

To the Editor of the Evening STAR
One of the most conspicuous Incl
dents at the recent collapse of a bui.d-
ing in Clinton street was the brave
work of the f1remen in rescuing the
dust from the crash had hardly
cleared away before several hremen
reached the spot in an automobile in
answer to the fire alarm which had
been turned in. 3.
When they learned that several
workmen had been buried beneath the
ruins the fremen jumped into the
wreck and worked like beavers. The
most heroic part of their work was
their disregard of the western wall
of the building, which was in danger
of topping upon them at any second.
The huge cracks in the wall and the
lack of support around it told the men
plainly what they were risking. Every
new arrival on the scene was at once
attracted to the condition of the wall
and advised the firemen to watch out
for themselves.
The rescuers evidently realized dhe
buried men would not be helped by
Watching for the wall to fall. They
reached the first man in a remarkably
short time, considering the amount of
wreckage upon him and the gingeFly
way. it had to be handled. The totter-
ing wall did not fall, but the iremen
had no guarantee it would not. and
they displayed courage worthy of
recognition. j.. T.. L.

THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES CAMPAIGN

IT'D RESIDENTIAL elections occur once in four years and are
6 national. For that reason the preliminary election cam
paigns and The campaigns of candidates for the presidential
nomination begin far in advance of the election. The candidates
campaigns are now well under way. President Taft began his by
sending the Canadian reciprocity pact to Congress and afterWard
hy his proposals for arbitration treaties. Governor Harmon, of
Ohio. tied up by the State Legislature, is making capital By helping
TO expose wrongdong and by practical State reforms. Speaker
Clark is making his record at Washington, New jerseys governor
has been on the wing for Il month in Il spea king campaign, while
legislative bills await his signature. II Roosevelt is a passive can
didatc he makes no sign. Perhaps he feels that he has no need for
captpaigning. The nominating conventions will be held in the sum-
rner of 1912, more than "a year hence. What a lot of campaign work
yet to be done by the presidential candidates besides receiving
delegations, consulting with party leaders and keeping up a vast
correspondence! What time is left for other duties and affairs in

Strangely Inconsistent.

10 tho Editor OF the Evening Star:
According to the Evening STAR OF
Memorial Day the allied German
American and Irish-American societies
OF Essex county are getting up q petit
ton opposing the peace pact between
this country and England.
It seerned to me a little remarkable
TO read of this stand taken against the
peace movement, When the day was
given over to the concentrating of
Abraham Lincoln, essentially a man of
peace. n the heroes of American
wars. Every where yesterday ~eulogies
were BEING spoken Of Lincoln. Roosevelt
said: There lever was a great cause
more absolutely embodied In a great
man than the cause of union and free
dom; the cause of order and liberty,
the greatest of all causes, vas embod-
led in Abraham Lincoln
Lincoln, above all other Americans,
as a man who had himself fought and
won a great a should be listened to
when speaking of war.
In the wonderful language of his
second inaugural he said:
Lot us strive on to finish the work
we are in; to bind up the nations
wounds: to care for him Who shall
have borne the battle. and for his
widow and his o%rphan-to do all that
which may achieve and cherish a just
and lasting peace among ourselves and
with all nations"
Isn't 1t remarkable that men should
be standing for war at the same time
they are eulogizing Abraham Lincoln?

THE COMING BOY SCOUT.

cTN HE Boy Scout is destined TO he a prominent feature of hoh
day parades in American cities, and a very desirable one, too.
The Boy Scout represents Il system of training of youth that
develops real manhood in the boy. 1t tends 10 sharpen his faculties
as well as improve him physically and morally, and it gives to him
ideals that are adapted to his age and can be broadened as he grows
TO manhood, A nation should guard against moral degeneracy in
its youth. Sparta carefully trained her sons and made them gladi-
ators for her defense. There was no feminization OF the Spartan
youth. The military nations Of Europe compel the young man to
submit to long periods Of military discipline, We have no such
system in this country, and i'll place of it we should, encourage and
promote organizations like the Boy Scouts. This brings out the
better qualities of young boys, cultiTates in them the patriotic senti-
ment, gives them a sense of duty and inspires them with a worthy
spirit of adventure.
