Justice Mckenna's Reply.

The Harvester company had also set up
the claim that combinations which benefit
the public and result In no injury are
not unlawful To this contention Justice
McKenna replied:
at is too late In the day to assert
against statutes which forbid combina-
lions Of competing companies that the
particular combination was induced by
good intentions and did have some good
effect
In thus dlsposlng OF the fine distinc-
ton drawn by Col Roosevelt and his
friend George W. Perkins between
good trusts and bad trusts" the court
cited the decis on in the beef trust case
and the bathtub trust case and added
Perhaps the object Of all such statutes
Is TO secure competition and preclude
combinations which tend TO defeat IT,"

cations for the purpose Of passing laws,

May walt for Complaints.

In entering upon the work OF ironing
out many of the wrinkles In the trans
portation problem due to conflicts In the
matter OF regulation OF rates between
the Federal authority and the State au-
thOrity, the interstate Commerce Com
mission In most of these cases Will prob
ably walt upon complaints OF those who
may feel that they are being Disseminated
against in the matter OF accommodations
in transportation.
One of the most important cases in
point would be the laws made by the
States. Under these laws discrimination
is being worked between passengers In
Interstate commerce and those travelling
between points who'll, within the state
where two cent fare prevails, although
the haul may be practically the same.
a passenger starting from Washington
to point In Virginia will pay three
cents "a mile because he travels in in
terstatc commerce and the rate OF three
cents has not been attacked before the
Interstate Commerce Cotpmsslon as un-
Isonable, bu; he may cross the Poto-
mac River TO Alexandria and purcha Sc
"A ticket to the same destination In Nlr-
glna and pay only two cents a mile for
his transportation.
AS a matter of fact. some passengers
actually go TO Alexandra by boat or au-
tomobile and buy tickets and take their
trains there, where they get the benefit
OF the State law imposing two cent
fare, instead OF buying their ticket In
Washington at three cents a mile
West Virginia has two cent per mile
rate under State law The Item OF fare
becomes very important to n passenger
travelling to Washington across both Nr-
ginias by the Chesapeake and Ohio.
II he purchases his ticket between
points wholly within Virginia he gets II
lower rate than the man who buys IA
through ticket.
The same situation. IS in many other
parts OF the country and II the source
