"THE RULE OF REASON"

How funny it all seems now, the
way some people threw fits over the
"rule Of reason! If there had been q
judicial recall, we are not certain that
the Supreme Court justices would not
have been sent home after the Stand
ard Oil decision. Certainly there
would have been petition to put
their findings to the test Of popular
review. Passions were torn to tatters
In denunciation of the rule Of reason
As the emasculation of the ANTITRUST
law, and it was generally in ignorance
or malice misrepresented as a rule
legalizing reasonable restraint OF
trade, when in truth it was nothing
but a rule of common sense applied 10
facts to ascertain, not If the restraint
was reasonable. but if, considered rea-
sonably, there was any restraint. Ihis
rule was the courts answer to those
who were trying to make the law an
ass in the interest Of monopoly by car
rving II to an absurdity and denounc-
ing an agreement between two carriers
driving over state line as an illegai
combination. But all this was lost
sight Of by those who were so ANXIOUS
TO pronounce the court reachonary anu
10 proclaim that it had drawn tue
teeth Of the antitrust law.
Now we see that the law has more
teeth than ever. The Supreme Court
has applied the "rule of reason 10 tne
Union Pacific case. 1t has refused 10

tween the proper extension OF the
Union Pacific and the incidental re-
straint of competition which appeared

bibitiops Of the statute effective In so
broad q way as to apply even when' as
the court SAYS in this instance, tine

'tively small part" of the business OF
the corporations combined and even
when there was a real public advan-
tace sought in the combination.
opinions will differ as to the decision
in the Union Pacific case, but II Is
clear that no rule of reason" para
lived the court or prevented the exer-
else of its power to preserve even
incidental competition from extinc-
ton by a merger of interests mainly
non-competitive. Some may think the
decision extreme, others may think
II likely to prove ineffective for secur-
ing real competition. But, however
that may be. there can be no doubt
that the court, guided by its rule OF
reason" has gone further than ever
before in its efforts to break up wDat

POOR TEDDY.

Theodore Roosevelt, in a spirit of
vaulting ambition or of supreme vanity,
or some other inscrutable cause, has
cheapened his word causelessly and
become the political enemy of his best
friend and former co-worker and de-
livered the severest blow in his power
toward the defeat of the republican
party in this year, 1912. He has shame
fully stained the honorable fame he
had acquired, and the. future historian
will write in sorrow this chapter Of his
life.
| confess am amazed and cannot
satisfactorily to myself fathom the
pathway leading to this, his political
suicide-to place no darker judgment
upon it. I am sure this view of his
conduct l have stated finds ready
response among thoughtful men of all
parties. '*
I remember what shock it was to
me to see Horace Greeley in 1868 run
ming for president on the democratic
ticket But I drew some consolation
from the facts that he was an old man,
his mind weakened with age and
visions he had had Of honors never
attained But how about Roosevelt,
in the prime of life, So years of age,
two terms president, and now so
false to his friend in whose praise
some three years ago he exhausted
his vocabulary of language when that
friend was candidate for president!
Now third termer against his friend!
oh. how foolish man can be; how
far it is possible for him to tumble

POOR SEED CORN
COST IOWA $100,000,O0O

Des Moines, March 5.-John Cownie
of Des Moines in an address before
the Greater Des Moines committee,
declared that Iowa had lost 800, 0O0,-
900 during the last eight years as the
result of using poor seed corn Mr..
Cownie gave statistics of his personal
investigation to substantiate his
claims.
"If the business man would conduct
his business as the farmer conducts
his farm said Mr. Cownie, 'he soon
would go into bankruptcy" Although
Mr.. Cownie is opposed to seed corn
testers. he stated they would do much
good this year in testing seed corn
that is to be used in planting.
Declaring that farmers of Iowa
must test their seed corn this year in
order to prevent state wide calamity,
the committee today is mailing letters
to farmers, business men and bankers
in all parts Of Iowa.

from high estate.
There is Senator Lodge of Massa
chusetts, an intimate college and
political friend of Roosevelt and Long
worth, his son-in-law-they are not
only amazed, they are struck dumb
and it is no wonder.
Now, what is Roosevelt's reason fol
all this? So far as I have observed
it is chiefly confined to one criticism
Of President Taft. It is true he did
not agree with Taft's peace arbitra
ton ideas. In this regard he seems
to have some views in consonance
with the kaiser, who claims to reign
by the grace of God and not at the
hands of the people. He regards Taft
peace efforts impracticable. But his
criticism lies chiefly in the PROPOSE
ton of recall of the decisions of the
courts by popular vote.
Now let us apply his views for
example to our national government.
The constitution divides the govern
ment into three departments: Con.
gress to enact the laws, the presi'
dent to execute them, and the SUI
preme court the final interpreter OF
them. He would have the people by
petition or some other manner given
a chance to reverse the supreme
court If it did not suit part of them
by regular election. That is, relegate
to the ballot box the determination
of great judicial questions. suppose,
too, that carrying out his idea of gov
eminent, in case the people by vote
made decision this year that they
did not like next year, they should
have the privilege of reversing them
selves by another vote.
OF course, the constitution would
have to be amended to put Mr.. Roose-
velt's plan into operation, and that is
something this nation will never do,
except it puts itself in the way of
topping to it's fall. He seems to
break faith with Taft in advocacy of
this visionary scheme. ~
If l had a boy ten years old with
such whirligig in his head would
despair of making any thing out of
him. A. H. Hamilton.
