that the heading under which the

here. Without any desire to boast,

our own schools. A person that com

system that compares itself to itself

is worth while is a comparison of

ANTITRUST LAW.

think / may affirm without con-
tradiction that the prosecution of all
persons reported to the department OF
justice to have violated the antitrust
law has been carried on in this adj
ministration without fear or favor,
and that every one who has violated
it, no matter how prominent or how
great his influence, has been brought
before the bar of the court either in
civil or criminal suit TO answer the
charge.
1t is the custom Of those who find
it to their political interest to do so
to sheer at, as fnnocuous, the DEGREES
against the American Tobacco Com
pany and against the Standard Oil
Company, and the administration is
condemned in the democratic platform
for consenting to compromise in
the Standadr Oil case. There was no
compromise The Standard Oil de-
cree was entered by the circuit court,
and then by the supreme court, on
the prayer of the government con-
tanned in the original bill filed in a
previous administration. The decree
in the tobacco case was reached after
a full discussion and entered by the
circuit court, consisting OF four cir
cult judges, as a proper decree. and
I the government refused to appeal
1 from it because ii did not feel thai it
had grounds upon which TO base
such an appeal. Both DEGREES are
working well. Both DEGREES have in
troduced competition, the one into
I branches of the tobacco business and
the other into branches OF the Gil
business. They have net reintroduced
ruinous competition, but they have
affected certain prices in such war
as to show the presence of real com
petition. The division of the two
trusts by the DEGREES into several
companies was not expected to show
immediate radical change in business
1t may take some years to show all
the benefits Of the dissolution, but
the limitations of the DEGREES in those
4 two cases are so specific as to make
altogether impossible resumption Of

4 DEGREES were entered. Even if ex
prience shall show the DEGREES to BIZ

The Two Great issues.

Donnellson Review: With great
clearness and accuracy President Taft
has stated the two great issues now
before the American people The
first Is the retention. on a sound and
permanent basis, of the popular CON
stitution government under which,
with an independent judiciary, the
country has steadily progressed The
other is the continuance Of the pros
perity which has accompanied Repub-
Iican administration and which has
been especially observable under
President Taft.
In the hurry and hustle OF every
day affairs we are apt to ignore the
deep and significant facts connected
with government and TO regard CON
stitutional questions as remote from
individual welfare There never was
a time however. when il was So i'm
portant that the American people
should understand the vital necessity
of remaining steadfast TO the wise
principles of government which our
Iforefathers made the basis of our ma
tionaI greatness. The radical theor-
les which are now being put forward
under the plausible name of progress
sive policies are the very rocks upon
which students of history have pre-
ldicted the American republic would
eventually be wrecked.

stand all the intricate details Of gov

preciating the value of continued
prosperity. Even if greater and vita

would be sufficient reason for re
