Mr.. Roosevelts idea of a bureau
cratic control of the trusts does not
commend itself TO the country. Dem
ocrats do not want to attack a cor
poration because II Is big, as he pre-
tends TO imagine, but only when II
violates the law. And the law is
plain, forbidding monopoly and re-
straint OF trade; not reasonable" re-
straint of trade, but any restraint of
trade.
Two evils follow when the trusts
are given license to loot by the Repub-
lican party's non-enforcement OF the
law (whether the non-enforcement be
absolute or practically absolute by the
bringing OF suits that effect nothing
Of benefit to the people). And these
two evils are. First. that the trusts.
by their monopolies and restraints OF
trade. fix prices and fix them high.
robbing the people. second. they grow
so strong that they are able, by tenn
porary underselling, TO drive a COM
petitor- out OF business, and, when this
is done. up go prices again-Houston

Some such plan as Mr.. Roosevelt al :
