FLAYING AT WAR. t
Folitiesl Trust Huoutlag Hos Had X l
Lfficot on Migh Prices,
The injunction that Presldent Roose
welt and his attorney general obtained
about two years, ago against tlie bect
frust sccme to have hud just tLe op
posite effect intended. Lt was suppos=
ed at tLe time that President Roow»i
welt was hunting with intent to Kid
the most conspicuous ‘bad trust” hel
had discovered, It 18 tmpossible to |
fathein upon what theory Iresident t
Roosevelt scleeted the beef tyust me the
gole bad ivdustrial trust he could find
to prosecuta, for the coal trust, the
Btendard Ofl trust, the sweel trust gn.d |
dozens of others were culpable 4j9%s ‘
pume degree. The profits of the Tras . ]
ard Ol trust were larger and the drvi
dends paid much greater and the mo
popoly even more grinding than the
beet trust, for it had advanced its
pricés 100 per cent in a year. The
eoal trust was equally guilty and quite
ng oppresgive, The steel trust was
inore ¢lpontie and as & monopely gpar
@l peither high nor low. Why were
pone of these selected as the “horrible
expmple?”
The reason: was plain, They were
1!l too sirong politically and had been'
tn the past and were expected to be in
the near future large contributors to |
the Republican campaign fund, It
would never do to “runannck” against
uch zood friends, with thelr Wall
plreet conmnections that controlled
hauls, trust companies, rallroads and
sther Industrial comms, with half
the capitall of the cglintry at their
biack, The beef combine men were
winall potatoes compared to the other
frust magnates, and as public opinion:
wus contered on beef In consequence of
‘he oxtraordinary increase in price the
peackors’ comblnation ‘was selected for
finox to slaughter.
liut the packers’ combine people’
woere no novices in the legal game of
plu’ and being advised by their at.
torncys that an injunction restraining
¢therm from eombining In restraing of
tyade did not hinder them from a ‘*‘gen-
Hemen’s agreement” to all sell at the
#onie price and not bid against each
other for eattle and hogs left the in
junction obtained by the administra
tion “up In the air,” in the language of
the “street.”
fo President Roosevelt got all the’
eredit for his war on the trust, hut the
boef consumers have profited nothing.
for the price of beef is still high.
3ut even: the Republican' congress
c¢ould not justify a state of affalrs that
liopt up the price of beef and reduced
vhe price of cattle, so last winter Sec
retary Cortelyou of the department of
sommerce and labor was ordered to in
vostignte the packers' combine. It
vresumed that for months this investi
#ation bas been going on, but it does
10t seem to weorry the packers and cer
tainly bas had no restruining effect on
the other trusts, for they are all still
charging “all the trafilc will bear” It
the voters of the country are satisfled
with this playing nt war against the
trusts and vote to Indorse such namby
pamby operations they deserve to pay
irust prices for the balance of thelr
wen s will probably do- so.

PLUNDERS THE FARMER.
#olicy of Protection Places a Heavy
Burden en His Shoulders;
The policy of protection has, fl'ouf
the beginning of our government, been |
& burden, and a heavy oae, upon the
farmer. It is a pity that our farmers,
svho are the backbone of protection to
day, could not read and learn the les
goins of history: What Congressman
Smith of South Carolina said in our
first congress, in 1789, s as true today
Bit was then. Ile said:
“1t las*heen said, and justly said, sir,
that the states which adopted the con
gtitution expected its administration
would be conducted with a favorable
Hand. The manufacturing states
wished the encouragement of manu
fhctures, the maritime states the en
cauragement of shipbuilding and the
ggricultural states the encouragement
of agriculture. We have laid heavy
dutles upon foreign goods to encour
gge domestic manufactures, we are
gow about to lay a tonnage duty for
the encouragement of commerce, but
Has any ene step been taken to en
dourage the agricultural states? So
thr from it that all that has been doue
agperates: against thelr interest, every
duty we have laid will be heavily felt
¥y South Carolina, while nothing has
Yeen done: b 0 gssist or even eneourage
Mer or her agriculture.”

tapplied the liniment, ard told us a tale.
He said that one man was badly hurt in an
accident, that all the shingles were pulled off
ne roof of his mouth, that all the' nails: on
his hards and feet were driven square up or
off, that the tap root of his to.gue was spht,
hat the balt of his ey e-was thrown about a
hundred yards, and batted-out ofthe diamond |
by the lick. ‘
He had received internal extsrnal diurnal|

time to make a crop and get fat while the
angels on'the other side are charging the
measure of the clothes to give him when he
inally goes thar the golden slippers, and
‘walk the golden streets. |
Now this is only intended as an exaggreat—’
