BOND ELECTION NOT CALLED SOON Not until a meeting ot the board of county commissioner* I* held will It lie known when a bond election to provide fund* for the new courthouee will be called. Two of the commta*loner» are out of the city and the other three hare not expreseed themselves. It 1* supposed that If the election ia called It will be before the tax rate I* fixed, for the funds must be raised either by bonds or dlreet taxation. to represent that stock. Thl* process I* facilitated hr the uncontrolled potter to issue securities beyond the needs of the company for Its legitimate bush ness and would be curbed by the re striction proposed. The evil ought fur. ther to be directly restrained by making It unlawful tor an Interstate railway to acquire stock In a competing line. This Is a simpler remedy of meet ing the evil than by recourse to the anti-trust law under tho Northern Se curities case. In addition to this, com- K lines should be prohibited from j common directors or officers. Roads Belittle Rate Bill. “The opponents of the measure con tinue to denounce It, but now Instead of pointing out Ite disastrous effect, they say it Is a failure and thnt In the year since Its passage, It has not helped a single shipper. They Insist that the only effective and all-sufficient law to regulate the railways Is the Ktklns act, passed In 190$, and that thin Is shown by the fact that nil the prosecu tion* In which convictions have been had against rnllway companies and fa vored shippers In the last two years, have been under the Kllrins act, land not under the rate bill. Let ns Ionic Into the facts In regard to this a|l#a- tlon. The chief prosecutions which have been Instituted have been criminal Indictments ngalnst the sugar trust and the Standard Oil Companv, and certain rallwoys and their agent* and officer* for taking and giving secret money rebates. They could not have been brought under the rate bill, be cause the acts prosecuted were com mitted before the passage of the rate bill. The Elkins Aet. 'It Is true that these prosecutions wero Instituted under the Elkins act, but It Is also true that had the Elkins bill never passed, the same ucts could and doubtless would hnvc been prose cuted as giving and receiving unjust Indiscriminations against the persons committing them under the amendment to the Interstate commerce act of 1S89, which the Elkins low supplanted. The Elkins law was really an amendment to the Interstate commerce net, enlarg ing and making more effective tho procedure for prosecuting violations of the pnitilPItl.inx of that law and de scribing them In more comprehensive form. It gave greater latitude In re spect to the district where tho offense would be prosecuted and It made tho company necessarily responsible In a fine for the act of its agents, without other proof of rtlreft complicity than the agency, Rata Bill Rsstorsd Jail Penalty. In the rate bill, congress amended the Elkins hill and restored Imprison ment ns part of the punishment for se cret rebates. Had the rebating and dishonest practices of the railroad com panies and the trusts been ns clearly known to congress and the public whet: the Elkins bill was considered, as they were when the rate bill was passed, the Elkins hill would not have passed so smoothly.” Ths Trusts. Mr. Taft then took up the trusts and In reviewing the question he aald: “Mr. Bryan asks me what I would do with the trusts. I answer thnt 1 would restrain unlawful trusts with all the ef ficiency of Injunctive process nnd would punish with all the severity of criminal prosecution every attempt on the part of aggregated capital through the lllc gal means 1 have described to suppress competition. “There has been great activity In the department of commerce nnd labor and In the department of Justice In an effort to Investigate nml restrain tbo con tinuance of such unlawful methods, and the success which has attended this ef fort In the dissolution of n number of euop trusts where they consisted of several companies or partnerships unit, od bv a contract In restraint of trade has been gratifying. In the case of tnose who have made themselves Into one corporation, their restraint Is more difficult. It Involves enormous labor on the part of the government to prosecute such a combination because the proof of the gist of the offense Ite* under neath un almost limitless variety of transactions. In the outset It can be very much more easily reached by bill In equity than In a criminal prosecu tion nnd the questions of law arising .lay be more qulrkly settled. Suppression of Truste. “Mr. Bryan’s method of suppressing unlawful trusts would be to require every person, partnership or corpora tion engaged In Interstate traffic, to tuke out u Federal license, and by with, holding such licenses from Illegal trusts, he would make them impossible. It Is probable that a statute embody ing this plan, could be drawn which would stand the test of the constitu tion. It would, however, have to con tain some provision for ultimate judi cial determination of those applicants for license who were violating the anti trust law and thus Involve the same lit igation we now have. There Is danger that Its effect would he so to clog the channels of legitimate Interstate trade. Imprisonment of Trust Heads. “Mr. Bryan Is continually asking why some of the managers of unlawful trusts have not been convicted and sent tr, the penitentiary? I sympathise with him in his wish that this may be done, because I think that the imprisonment of one or two would have a most healthy effect throughout the country; but even without such Imprisonment 1 tielteve that the prosecutions which are now on foot and the Injunctions which have already been Issued, have hqd a marked effect on business methods. One reason for the small number of sen- lances of Imprisonment In trust prose cutions 1* that the revelations of un lawful trust method* and dishonesty have been chiefly made known In se cret rebates, and, as I have already raid, the Elkins act, until amended by the rate bill, only prescribed flnra us a mode of punishment In such cases.” Mr. Taft spoke of the absurdity of national referendum, and closed with a few remarks on the tariff, Ita revision and relation to tha trusts. SEC’Y TAFT WILL RESIGN WHILE IN PHILIPPINES Columbus, Ohio, Aug. 20.—Imme diately after opening the Phllllp- plne parliament on October 14.- Seere. tary Taft will resign the secre taryship of war. That will complete his official duties and his resignation will come hy cable—If It Is not already In the president'* hands—to take ef fect at that time. Leaving the Philippines, he will take his trip through Russia and Germany, meeting the exar and tha kaiser merely as an American citizen and In no of ficial capacity. When ho lands on American soil after practically completing the circuit of the globe, he will enter Into the cam paign for the Republican presidential nomination. This Is the secretary's program as It became known to Ohio friends last night and It Is not likely to bo subjected to any change. Until he completes his service In the Philippines, he will travel at govern ment expense, using United States transports on pvt of his journey, but after that he will pay his own way and go as an ordinary citixen. TAFl'SSPEECHAN APOLOGY, &4 IS THE NE W YORK PRESS New York, Aug. 20.—Under the' caption, “Secretary Taft's Apology.” The Press saya thla morning In an editorial; “As political food to be digested by the American people, Secretary Taft's much heralded Ohio speech proves to be the thinnest paper. On such a diet they would starve to death. As a de bate—between himself (apparently taking It for granted that President Roosevelt Is to make the Republican candidate president) and Mr. William Jennings Bryan (obvlous)y Judged by. him to bt the Democratic standard- bearer ns a foregone conclusion)—the i-dresa Is an apology. “Mr. Taft apologizes for believing so much ns he does—he apologizes for not believing more. If It Is a cautious historical review ot the great move ment to eheck the Illegal and oppressive privileges of special Interests, It Is both nn appreciative and dutiful paneyrio on his chief. It concedes that there Is much to do and It congratulates the Republican party that the voter* of the United States have such confidence In President Roosevelt, who Is not to be a candidate for a third term." “JAIL AND FINE FOR TRUST OFFENDERS” Continued from Page One.

One man. who lived In the liutMtns, w»s trapped In the bnsc- laent and badly burned. laws providing for such criminal action, and for punishment by Imprisonment a* well as by fine. “Any effective action on the part of the government Is always objected to, ns a matter of course, by the wrong doers, by the beneficiaries of tho wrong doers, and by their champions; and often one of the most effective ways of nttucklng the notion of the gov ernment Ik by objecting to practical action upon tho ground that It does not go far enough. Financial Disturbances. "During the present trouble with the stock market I have, of course, received countless requests nnd suggestions, public and private, that I should say or do something to ense the situation. There Is a world-wide financial disturbance. It Is felt In the bourses of Paris and Berlin, add British consols are lower than for a generation, while British railway securities have also depreciated on the New York stock exchange, where tho disturb ance* have been particularly clear. “Most of It I believe to be due to' matters not peculiar to.the United Slates add the most of tho remain der to matter* wholly unconnected with any governmental uctlon. But It may well be that the determina tion of the government—In which, gentlemen, It will not waver—to punish certain malefactors of great wealth, has been responsible for something of the trouble. Discredit Administration. “I believe It to ' the extent of having caused these men to con trive to bring a* much financial strife ns possible In order to dis credit the policy of the government and thereby secure a reversal of that policy so that they may en joy unmolested the fruits of their own evil doing*. "They may have misled many good people Into believing that there should be such reversal of • policy If possible. If so, I am sorry, but it will not alter my atti tude. Once for all. let me say that as far ns I am concerned nnd for the eighteen months of my presi dency thnt remain, there will be no change In the policy we have steadily pursued or let up In the effort to secure the honest observ ance 'of the law, for I regard this contest as one to determine who shall rule this free country—the people, through their governmental agents, or a few ruthless domineer ing meen whose wealth makes peculiarly formidable because they hide behind the breastworks of corporate organisation.” will Prosscuts Rich or Poor. "I wish there to be no mistake on this point. It Is Idle to ask me not to priyiecute crlmlnnls, rich or poor, but I desire no less em phatically to have It understood that we have sanctioned nnd will sanction no action of a vindicative type and above all np actlon wjilch , T, SPRATT LEADS SHOOTERS Made Best Score In Big Event Held at Sa vannah. William T.

Spratt secured a total of 689 points, while his nearest com petitor had only 644. This Is the first lime that an Atlanta man has ever de feated the Savannah exports over thetr own range. Mr. Spratt and mott of the other rep resentatives leave soon for Camp Fer ry, between Sandusky and Toledo, Ohio, where the national rifle match will be hold. C. C. Smith, In charge of the rifle practice about Atlanta, goes with the team. Lieutenants Seamans and Wilson, of Savannah, are already at Camp Perry and will shoot In the com petition to select member* of the In ternational team. The scores made In the Savannah shoot follow: _.jall Inflict great dsid unmerited suffering upon Innocent stockhold ers and upon the public as a whole. “Our purpose Is to act with mini mum harshness compatible with obtaining our end. In tho man of great wealth who ha* earned his wealth honestly and uses It wisely we recognise a good citizen of the best type, worthy of all pralae and respect. Business can only be done under modern conditions through corporations and our pur pose is heartily In favor of corpora tions that do well.
