Little Trusts.
From the Columbus Journal.

From The Columbus JoUr1lal.
1t is not the big trusts that do the
most harm to the country. but the little
ones that set themselves up In every
community and reap great profits off of
innocent customers by agreeing upon
high prices. Such combines do great
injustice, and there should be some
government inspection of them and
some severe penalties inflicted for such
conspiracies against the public well
fare Government is doing a mighty
small business when it attends only to
the big malefactors. If 1t purposes to
punish for restraint of trade, 1t Is as
much Its duty TO attend to the $40 re-
straints as the $1,000. And the big ones
can never be suppressed unless the
little ones go.
