FTER opposition as stubborn as it was unwise, the leaders in trust organization have surrendered to the firm attitude of President Roosevelt, and the anti-trust law framed on his lines will pass Congress and become the law of the land. Its features are: such publicity as shall protect the people and safeguard investors, without disclosing legiti- mate business operations for the benefit of business rivals; effective prevention of preferential freight rates and rebates, punishing those who give and those who receive such preferences; pro- hibition of the artificial manipulation of prices; and provision for Government supervision and investigation of all trust methods. These features go to the vitals of the matter. That which prevents and punishes preferential freight rates and rebates is of very great importance, for it strengthens the interstate commerce law at its weakest part. As that law stood, the Interstate Commerce Commission had the power to in- vestigate and ascertain such preferences, but had no power to enforce punishment when they were found to exist. There is no doubt that they have been generally used and have constituted the leading odium of railroad and trust policy, but, those guilty of the offense have been able to defy the commission, which had no means of punishment. : o The provision against artificial manipulation of prices will be found to be far reaching. Such manipulation is made possible by the power of a trust to suppress competition. At a com- peting point the price is fixed below the cost of production. The loss to the trust is made good by maintaining prices too far above the cost of production where there is no competition. This has caused a widespread objection to organized business and has set the country’s teeth on edge. When a competitor is destroyed by such means prices go up at the point where the process has been employed. We have many times pointed out the remedy. It consists in compelling the trust to reduce its prices at all points to the level fixed at the point where it is engaged in destroying competition. This takes from its hands the weapon with which it' manipulates prices by smiting competition out of existence, It seems plain that under the proposed provision of the new law this fnethod will be judi- cially recognized as the chief means of artificial manipulation, and the courts will enforce such principles as will make the law effective. It is no new principle. In effect, we have it in operation in California, as applied to railroad rates lowered to affect competition, which may not be raised again except by consent of the State, expressed through its Railroad Commission. The principle in the two cases is the same, and stands in recognition of competing rates and rights as a natural regulator of prices. { 7 After the result of last November’s election was known; and the Republican party had re- tained control of both branches of the next Congress, in the midst of the exultation of partisans the President said, soberly and wisely, and like a statesman who feels the responsibility and not the mere exultation of power, “The people have trusted the Republican party to do what they want done, and it must make good.” He is not among those who believe that party history, prestige and tradition can be de- pended upon to keep'a party in power and in idleness and indifference to changed conditions and the popular will. The life of a party to be useful, like that of an individual, must bq’onc of con- stant action. The winds do not blow always one way and the ocean swells and lapses- under tidal influence. The changes and necessities of national life present different aspects continually and must be met and accommodated by those who represent the national power. / Since John Sherman drew thé first law to regulate trusts that issue has not been partisan. The Democracy took power and held it after the Sherman act passed, and at a time when the whole trust issue was as amply before the country as now. But that party did nothing either to enforce or amend the Sherman law. When it split in 1896 the Bryan wing turned upon the other in bitter accusation of inaction in the matter of the trusts. But Mr. Bryan himself had been a mem- ber of Congress during the time of such inaction and had supinely shared it. The Republican party has a record for terminating evils and not leaving them to use as a spur to political action and change. The mere politician requires a public grievance for his political capital, and, when he gets power by appealing to prejudice against that grievance, as a rule he lets the grievance stand as it was or permits its change of form to the end that his vote-making capital shall remain for use in the next campaign. That is not the Republican way. The Republican party recognizes a real grievance and boldly abates it. The President’s declaration that the people merely trusted his party “to make good” is to be justified in this legislation against trust evils, and the country is gratified. FEDERAL SALARIES. NOTHER effort is to be made to bring about a readjustment of the salaries of Federal officials with an increase in nearly the whole list of the higher offices. The issue has been under consideration a long time and has been so generally approved it is strange the in- crease has not been made long ago. At the present time the salaries of Cabinet officers are so inadequate to the demands of society upon those holding such places that virtually none but rich men can afford to accept them. Such a condition of affairs is not wholesome in a republic where offices should be open on equal terms to all men of worth and ability. It has not been an infrequent occurrence of late for men of high capacity to resign offices in the service of the Government because of the smallness of the salary. Among the offices that should carry better salaries are those of the Federal Judges. The Chief Justice receives $10,500 a year, the Associate Justices $10,000, Circuit Judges $6000 and Dis- trict Judges $5000. Those salaries are plainly inadequate, and while it is true the Government has always been able to find jurists of first-class ability to accept the positions, that is no reason why the salaries should not be made something like equal to the rewards whichany lawyer of good abil- ity could make in private practice. The proposition now before Congress is said to include an increase of the salary of the Presi- dent to $100,000 a year. The measure if carried would not affect the present term of the office. It is therefore a question which might be taken up at any time within the next two years. The other salary question, however, ought to be dealt with promptly. The country is rich and there is no rea- son why it should demand self-sacrifice of those who serve it in high positions. ANOTHER TILLMAN. HE South Carolina campaign ended last November as far as the voting and the result were concerned. But Lieutenant Governor Tillman did not stop with the election. He distinguished himself by insulting the President of the United States in the matter of pre- senting a sword to a South Carolina soldier and in his proposed visit to the Charleston ex- position. These feats of statesmanship did not satisfy his active temperament, and he has contin- ued the campaign by shooting down an unarmed man in the streets of the State capital. The slaughterer and his victim had met before since the election and Tillman had passed by without any murd._erous demonstration, but suddenly he pulled/a gun and began shooting, in a crowded street. Tillman is attended by his lawyers and has outlined his defense, which is that he theught his victim was armed! The whole country will await with interest the judgment of a jury on the sufficiency of that defense for murder. If it be held good it will greatly facilitate the Tillman method of getting rid of an enemy. All that a man need do will be to think the other man is armed and shoot him down. When a murderous soldier instantly killed a quiet clerk in a market in San Francisco, to whom he had not spoken and whom he had never seen until he mardered him, his defense was, “I killed him like a gentleman, sir.” A jury in this city held that plea good and acquitted the red-handed assassin. It is said that a man in Kentucky pleaded in defense for having killed another, “He resembled a man I dislike.” It i®not recorded whether a Kentucky jury held that defense good or not. Let us see what a South Carolina jury does with the new plea of the Lieutenant Govetnor. The latest novelty in the way of business enterprise is the organization in New York of a company that proposes to furnish wedding outfits complete in everything except the bride and groom. People desiring to marry have only to place an order with the company and the rest will be done for them without trouble. The trousseau of the bride, the wedding garments of the groom, the flowers, ring, music, parson, attendants and appropriate souvenirs will be furnished in a lump sum, and satisfaction guaranteed. Thus it is to be made as easy to get married as to get a divorce, and New York expects to have a boom as a marriage resort. ot Third and Market Streets, 8.
