Although the Republicans are denying that there Is anything In the trust I*sue ami r** frying to belittle it in every way they can. they are net ini-mg any *p port unity to lessen Us forte. We culled Mllcntlon the otiier day to the fact that th** government had sent !*rof. J* nk t• Europe to gather statistic* regarding trust*. Since his return he has made the si.itement that there are mor** trusts in England and on the continent than in this country In proportion to the business artel IKipulalion. He has also asserted that trust* seem to lie demanded by the busl n*-- conditions of the age—that they are the product of natural business evolution The Republican* are also saying that without industrial combinations, to which there Is so much oppo-tMon at this time, this country would not be able to compete In the markets of the world with other commercial nation*, anil that Ilieretare It would have to curtail produc tion or endure Industrial depr.■.■loti due to overproduction. It Was to be expected that such argu mehls wouhl be advanced by* the Repunll i an*. They arc hound to defend trtiats. The whole country regard* the Republican party a* the friend of trusts. And. a* a matter of fact, h Is their friend If the truth were known It would doufette.-r. ap pear that the greater part of the ampalgu fund of tho Republican party I* being provided by the trust li seems that Mr Parroll ft. Wright. I’nlteil Htates Commissioner of Ltlxtf, has been Induced, doubtless by Repuhllcnn campaign managers. to make a statement to the rffoct that better wage are jkil'l by trusts than were pint before these i omblnotlons were formed. He states that not only are better wages paid since trust came Into existence, but that the number at laborers who arc afforded -m --idoymenl is greater. According to .Mr Wright, therefore, a trust Is a blessing. But neither I’rof. Jfenks nor Commis sioner Wright will lie able to convince the lople that a trust IS a good thing for them. The evidence I* abundant that a trust will put Us hand* In Ih*- puckel.- of the people whenever It can do rO. Hid that It will pul them In Just a- deeply a- It i an.

The sugar trust kept down the price of sugar is long is It had to tin so—l ha I is, .is long as it had op position—but Just as soon ns it got rid of opposition It put up the price to a point where it will be able to nuke enormous dividends. ft would no doubt pul the price still higher It it could, hut If It were to do so the tariff would not protect it. and refined sugar would be Imported.
