DEMOCRATS BACKING UP.

The Democrats in congress, some OF
them, at least, appear to coincide with
the position taken by former Attorney
General Wickersham that the Sherman
antitrust law gives the government am
pie power to curb monopoly and re-
store competition without the aid of the
bills that are supposed to bear the
stamp Of the administration and which
have been under consideration by the
leaders of the dominant party for some
time past. Senator Newlands is out
spoken in his belief that with an in
terstate trade commission and a law
to regulate the issuance Of railroad Sc
curities the country would be amply
protected against business evils.
So tho much vaunted and oft
heralded antitrust programme Of the
administration is likely to vanish into
thin air and the business of the coun-
try given a chance to recuperate after
being batted ell over the field during
the political game of the past two
years. The people Of the country will
undoubtedly rejoice with exceeding
great Joy that the rampant trust-busters
are having lucid interval.

FINING JOURNALISTS.

The fining of two newspaper mon In
New York by United States judge for
refusing to answer questions concern
ing their informants in smuggling cases,
calls attention TO the fact that the law
does not recognize communications
TO journalists as privileged. 1t protects
most OF the communications between
lawyer and client md doctor and pa
tient, but society does not seem to con-
slider it necessary or just to protect the
newspaper man. Perhaps this is due,
for the most part, to the rarity Of cases
ID which newspaper man deems it a
point of honor to shield his informant.
Az q general rule it makes very little
difference to all parties concerned
whether tho source Of information Is re-
vealed or not, but In those very cases
where tho courts demand tho informa-
tion, the newspaper man often finds
himself obliged to conceal confidential
communications.
Very early in the history Of law it
became necessary to privilege commu-
nications between lawyers and clients
and between doctors and patients. Jour
nalism is a modern development; It's en-
tire history does not span four hundred
years, and it is only within very recent
times that newspaper reporters have
been hailed into court for inquisition.
The development Of journalism has in
creased the importance Of Investigations
made by reporters. Often they I'M
earth secrets Of national and statewide
importance concerning political or 30
cial affairs, and on many occasions they
are required to give pledges Of secrecy.
In such cases the newspaper men con-
slider themselves as much bound to pro-
tect their informants as lawyers hold
themselves bound to protect the COM
munications of their clients; and If
reporter is morally bound, the law
should make him legally privileged.
The ethical standard Of journalism
should be as high as the ethical stand
ard Of the legal profession, and this
being the case, the law should recog-
nizo the standard and lend Its high
sanction.

lieve that the vast bulk of the deposits

inhabitants of Utah were convinced
that while the cnrnotite ores OF this
state were Of very considerable pro-

that 1t should be located somewhere IN
Utah. It is to be hoped That the min
ing men of this state will continue their
efforts to obtain the radium plant for
Salt Lake. The Denver chamber OF
commerce has held a meeting to urge
action on the question, and will make
strenuous efforts to secure tho plant
for Denver. Undoubtedly the members
of that organization will be able
to dream of many good argu-
ments, inasmuch as they were able to
dream that vast radium riches existed
in Colorado. All that the Utah mining
men need do is TO present the facts
and leave dreaming to the Coloradans.
