That end having been attained, Bryan will make. his fight on some other issue, and just at this time an anti-trust fight seems to him to be the most promising he can undertake. That a widespread distrust of great combinations of than that of three years ago. The e, only so far a t it is by no means so intense as it was a few years 2go, when the nature and objects of trusts were not so well understood as they are now. A short time ago it was generally believed that trusts were organized in restraint of trade and for the purpose of monopoliz- ing certain lines of industry and raising prices to con- sumers. It is now known that the effects of trusts have been the very opposite of what was feared. They have not restricted trade, but so extended it that our manufacturers are now products to all parts of the world. It has not checked industry, but stimulated it, and has not raised but lowered prices for all classes of consumers. The original opposition to trusts was not one of party politics, nor is it such to-d: A Republican Congress enacted the anti-trust law now on the Fed- eral statute books, and Republican Legislatures, as well as Democratic Legislatures, have attempted to prevent or restrict the operation of trusts within State In fact, Senator Depew has recently stated that all political parties will in 1960 make anti-trust planks | prominent in their political platforms. Such planks will mean that men of all parties are in favor of checking any abuses that may arise from the opera- | tion of great combinations of capital, and Bryan’s ef- | fort to make party advantage out of public sentiment { on the subject will fail. The issue will not be a par- | tisan one next year any more than it was four years ago, nor is it likely the people will be much excited over it, despite the laborious efforts of Democratic | leaders to work it up for campaign purposes. | It is worth noting that the stringent anti-trust law | enacted by Arkansas has been recently déclared by | the courts to be fatally defective, but not until it had lines. | done great injury to the State. It had the effect of | driving the great insurance companies out of the com- | monwealth, and for several months millions of dol- lars’ worth of property went uninsured. The new Texas law on the subject treats all transactions in {which a trust is concerned very much as if it were | gambling, and is about as stringent as any law that can be devised. The effect there is very apt to be what it was in Arkansas. Modern economic development has made large combinations necessary to meet the intense competition of trade, and States that do not permit them are sure to suffer heavy losses in more ways than one.

It can be turned out only by a complete dump or a general smash-up. Never before in the history of American politics was there such a flimflam trick played by bosses upon the rank and file of a party as has been done in this case. The original committee of three was to perform a specific duty and end its career with the fulfillment of that duty. It appointed a committee of one hun- dred to perform the duty and then disband. The The committee is carrying out a continuous perform- ance through the years, but the act originally an- nounced as its specialty has been dropped from the | programme, and even the most sanguine and patient | spectator of the circus must long since have lost hope of ever seeing it. The new campaign has hardly opened yet, and the Democratic donkey has still a chance to rid himself of his burden before the heat of the day begins. There is very little hope for him, however. In fact, if he should m ge to get sense enough to break away from the incubus, he would be a donkey no longer, and therefore no San Francisco Democrat. o e . ot Dreyfus seemed to think that he could gain no dignity by resuming the captain’s uniform of which conspiracy robbed him.
