Gary Has a Plan.

Whether Judge Gary's plan for
solving the trust situation and end
ing the business unrest proves ac-
ceptable or not, IL at least has the
merit of being definite proposition.
The official head of the Steel cor
poration has laid himself open to
violent criticism at home in his sug-
gestion that the government take
control of the large corporations to
prevent them from misusing the
enormous power welded by them
through the fundamentally OF their
organization. But Judge Gary must
be credited with sincerity in this
proposal, for It has not come as the
result of brief consideration. Il was
put out by him some months ago.
and, as the public will recall, roundly
censured by some other kings OF
commerce.. Add TO this government
regulation a law defining exactly
what big business may and may not
do, says Judge Gary, require the fair
est publicity of affairs in which the
people have an interest, and you have
a method that promises relief.
II Judge Gary is not afraid of reg
ulation, why should other big bust
ness men. be? He must have thought
1T over thoroughly or he would not
have presented II, and he certainly
fs not likely to propose any measure
TO injure vested interests. There Is
just this much to- be said, that if
recurring unrest as consequence OF
trust problems is to be avoided, then
there must be submission on the part
OF big business to tho government.
lt is a question in Judge Gary's
mind IL leaving conditions in their
present chaotic state, where neither
private industry nor the govern
ment seems sure of anything, is not
the worst that could be done.

Deterrent to Crime.

There is SO much occasion in this
country for complaining at tardy
court PROCEEDINGS that exhibitions of
speedy Justice call for special COM
ment. We have had two notable
cases OF the kind recentiyA-the
Beattie case and one In Chicago,
where four men are arrested. tried,
convicted and sentenced to be hanged
and two arc sent TO prison for life
within one month after the crime Is
committed. Beattie killed his wife
In July and pays the penalty In No
vember. Virginia has always boon
old-fashioned in constituting the con-
stItution literally in the matter OF
speedy and impartial trial by jury
and Il makes short shrift of undue
technicality not so much in that
regard may be said Of Illinois. but
certainly in the case at hand II lost
no time with nonessentials. The
men convicted and sentenead were
obscure and without money. IL
would be more notable If they had
been men Of better circumstances.
But, just the same. such demon
STATIONS Of the law are sure 20 have
a deterrent effect upon crime, In a
measure. They will do far more to
deter crime than will all the soft im-
parchment of Justice that goes by
the false name of humanitarIanism
These men who think themes
many OF which have been thought
by others before them-at 40 much
per think may twaddle all they
please about "all punishment being
worse than wrong and should be
abolished" hut they can never show
that abolishing punishment does
away with crime. nor helps human
ity in any other way. OF course. the
law is not going to take their advice.
but widespread agitation OF this sort
hurts law and order and influences
courts and juries in dispensing JUS
tiee, encouraging delays and aubtar-
fnges OF every kind AS for the
lawyers, they do not need or wait

The Surety Bond Combine.

The revelation OF a written agree.
ment between seven surety bond
companies doing business in Ne
braska to fix rates and pool the pro-
ceeds Of underwriting liquor dealers
bonds has started Attorney General
Martin into a move for the prosecu-
ton of the combine under the Junkin
antitrust act. This Junkin law has
been on the statute books for years.
with most drastic provisions to pre-
vent and punish lawless combina-
tons, but for some reason or an
other It has not been invoked to any
appreeiable extent.
The depredations Of the surety
bond companies have long been no
torious by an ironclad adherence to
q schedule of rates gradually screwed
up to twice what they we're orig
inally, the companies finally getting
SO strong that in the late democratic
legislature they procured legislation
providing for absolute uniformity of
rates for certain official bonds sub
ject to supervision by a board OF
state officers. IL is certain that no
one, unless he obtains secret re-
bate, can get a surety bond in this
state from any company cheaper
than he can get Il from any other
company. The alleged pool on
liquor license bonds may put a diff.
ferent face on that part OF It, but the
high-handed exactions Of the bond.
companies from the liquor dealers
are no different in principle FROM the.
tribute they levy on the public treas
uries and other people who must.
have bonds.
Incidentally, the bond companies1
combination to mulct the applicants
for liquor licenses emphasizes an,
other phase of which our attorney
general should take notice--a phase
which is involved in the custer pro-
ceedings against the South Omaha
police commissioners. AS we'll au-
thenticated report goes, liquor deal
ers in South Omaha were given the
option last year of meeting the ex-
orbitant demands Of the bond COM

privilege of putting up a personal
bond signed by straw bOndsmen, IL
they so desired, with guaranty that

which guaranty was duly redeemed.
The South Omaha license scandal IS
part and parcel with the surety bond
company combination. and If the
facts justify vigorous prosecution in
one case, they do also In the other.
