Special Washington Letter.
ENIZEXS of New York are be
ing taught a trust lesson which
may be of consequence here
after morally, politically and
otherwise. The anthracite coal trust
is the teacher, and Gothamites, without
respect to politics or religion, the vic
tims. "Hard Coal Advances a Dollar!"
is a frequent newspaper headline. The
coal barons may catch it where the
chicken got It in the neck.
If the late lamented Thineas T. Bar
nura, "lord mayor of Bridgeport," own
er of "the greatest show on earth,"
etc., could revisit the glimpses of the
moon, he would, unless he has lost that
git up and git which made him both
rich and famous, hasten to secure the
services of Mr. Babcoek, congressman
from Wisconsin and chairman of the
Republican congressional campaign
committee, arid would advertise him
as "the greatest living acrobat the
greatest that ever lived." Bab's capers
on the tariff and trust questions have
never been equaled since the morning
stars sang together for joy. One of two
things is true about Bab either he is
a most uncommon somersault turner or
he is "tecbed in the head" hard to tell
which.
Chairman Griggs.
Hon. James M. Griggs of. Georgia,
chairman of the Democratic congres
sional committee, is winning favor
where it was least expected in the
east. Judge Griggs Is bright, amiable,
patient, enthusiastic, capable, ambi
tious and Industrious. What's more,
he's lucky. In speaking to Griggs of
his election to the chairmanship, Hon.
W. M. Howard, one of the ablest young
men In the house, said: "Griggs, I be
lieve now that we will elect the next
house. Your Invariable good luck will
enable us to win." Griggs is busy as
n bee In planning the campaign. The
New York Times says;
Tils difficulty with Senator Hawley's es
timate of Senator Hoar as a man who Is
"crazy" on the subject of the Philippine
Islands is that the acceptance of it Im
plies too many men besides Senator Hoar
as in the same category. Mr. Hoar him
self may be an enthusiast whose devotion
to his own Ideas sometimes runs away
with him, tin we think the Instance was
never known before in, which they led
him away from his party. If there were
any enthusiasm that was to turn his
brain, it would be naturally In the re
verse direction. But, to return to the
point from which we started, if Mr. Hoar
Is crazy here, so TBas President Harrison
crazy; so Is Governor Boutwell crazy; so
is Senator Edmunds, late of Vermont,
crazy; so is Speaker Reed crazy. If there
can be found any four men in this coun
try who were less likely to' have the
soundness of their intellect affected by
either enthusiasm or brooding than Har
rison, Boutwell, Edmunds and Reed, we
should like to know them. This is to leave
out of account the author of the moVit
magnificent speeches made in the present
era of the nation's history.
That Herald editorial appears to be
a regular sockdolager on the Nutmeg
statesman. He will have to spit on his
hands and try it over again.
Free Advice.
The Atlanta Constitution, Democrat
ic, rises to remark:
The Democratic congressional campaign
of this year should be a vigorous and ag
gressive attack on thos tariff schedules
that are being used no longer to ward off
impossible foreign competition, but to rob
our own people and build up enormous
personal fortunes for favored classes and
sections. The way to kill the trust Is to
kill the special legislation which is the
spinal cord of its life. The way to de
stroy the leather trust and get shoes at
fair prices is to repeal the taxes on hides.
The way to destroy the food trust is to re
peal the food taxes and let the cattle and
fresh meats of Canada, Mexico and South
America cnn ii to regulate prices to a
living level. And eo Qn to tho end of the
chapter.
That's one remedy and a good one,
but it is an old saying that "doctors
disagree." in a long editorial on the
subject of trusts the New York Hail
and Express, Uepublican, says:
Mr. Gi'lgss, chairman of tha Democratic framed in Washington is responsible for
congressional committee, Is a man of
sense. Ha announces that his committee
proposes to conduct the campaign for con
gressional Candidates this fall chiefly on
tllfc Issue of the tariff. He reports, aii
.urgent demand from all parts of the Un
ion for "literature;" on that issue.
If the Democrats Etta prepared, as Mr.
Griggs proposed, to wnge the light this
fall on the tariff. Issue and if they will
put up candidates for the house and for
the senate who will not regard their elec
tion as license for peddling their votes to
tha tariff beneficiaries, they will deserve
to win. In many districts they will have
a. fait ehanco to win, and even if they do
not secure a majority m either house they
will lay the basis of nn honest and sub
stantial political organization that will ba
worth working with and for.
the early demise of these corporations
the law o supply and demand. The
American dollar frames that law. It is
alert t,0 opportunity, eager for invest
ment, hard to beat in competition. Jt K
at work all the time against tha trust
that Inflates prices or seeks return on
watered stoolt. And it will come nearer
solving the trust problem than will any
legislation enacted by congress. Congress
can 3 much and should do something to
make unlawful some of the present prac
tices of the trusts, but Individual Amer
ican enterprise and capital will after all
prove to be tho real and vital force
against them.
That Is only another way of stating
the warcry of Hon. Sereno E. Payne,
I "Let well enough alone!" or Mark
Republican Prosperity.
Senator Marcus A. Ilanna says that
the Itepublicans made tho presents
prosperity. Let s see. One of my con
stituents, J. A. Norton, of St. Charles
county, one of the richest agricultural
counties in tho world, has just har
vested 70,000 bushels of wheat from
his own farm, the crop averaging
thirty-five bushels to the acre. Did
Republicans cause his prosperity? Did
Mark sow that wheat, water It, make
the sun shine on it and harvest it V
to, Marcus Alo::sui, with such rot!
Hanna's improvement on Tayiie, "Keep
on letting well enough alone," to which
every trust and criminal in the land
will gke a most fervent and hearty
"Amen!" There is no sort of doubt
that tho suggestion of the constitution
is preferable to that of the Mail and
Express. Horace Greeley said, "The
way to resume is to resume," and tho
way to bust the trusts is to bust them.
It is true that individual enterprise
endeavors to bust them; but, as a rule,
(Jo they bust individual enterprise, u me

is a doubting Thomas as to what a
Republican congress is likely to do to

and possesses unusual facilities for
information not only as to what is
done and left undone, but also as to the
motives of tho actors. As to the Roose-velt-Littlefleld

dent and congress In Washington.
Another of my constituents, whose
name I have forgotten, but who lives
near New Florence, in Montgomery
county, raised ginseng worth $125 ou
about one rod of ground, which, of
course, Is proof positive that Mark
makes it rain.
All over Missouri the corn is from ten
to twenty feet high, potatoes are big as
ostrich eggs, the earth groans beneath
the weight of a most bountiful harvest
of all eer'tfs, fruits and vegetables;
consequently we all ought to go down
on our knees to Mark, provided he
made the rain to fall and the sun to
shine. But, query: If Mark makes
It seasonable this year, why didn't he
make It seasonable last year? Does
he cause It to rain only In election
years? People ought to have Informa

portant, don't you know
Subserviency to Trusts.
Tho Washington Post. Independent,
goldbngglsh and high tariff slii.jter.
gives this solar plexus blow to the He-
publicans lu this congress for their
j subserviency to the trusts:
I It Is not very Improbable that the Re
i publicans in both houses will be ready
j to vote for one or two carefully drawn
nntltrust measures when congress con
venes. They are hearing and will con
tinue to hear from the people on that sub
ject. They will know a little later, if they
do not already realize, that nore is wide- , cU,.u .,rotl,nso pf attempting nn attack on
spread ami deep dissalisiaeuen wnn uieir tnlsla nnd combines. Assuming It to be
a fact that the president has requested
Representative Llttlefleld of Maine, whose
dustrlal coiiiMiiaUons. hether they come i juilk.avv committee, to prepare the pro
back victorious or defeated, they will i , .ministration antitrust bill, we
trust en:iet::v;UH. And It will not be
tuninge if Hk.v yield to this pressure.
It appears that an administration anti
trust bill Is to be introduced in congress
on tha reassembling of that body In De
cember. Hitherto executive activities In
behalf of antitrust legislation have been
confined to recommendations In the regu
lar annual messages. President Mclvinley
called tha attention of congress to this
subject and expressed the hope that a
legislative remedy for the evils of monop
olistic combinations would be devised and
applied. President Roosevelt In his mes
sago to the Fifty-seventh congress last
December treated the trusts in a con
servative manner, but suggested publicity
as an important feature of remedial legis
lation. Hut neither the recommendation
of McKinlcy to the Fifty-sixth congress
nor of Roosevelt to the Fifty-seventh con
gress fruetilled In any antitrust enact
suppose that he did not have a full under
standing and keen appreciation of the
farce which his committee was perpetrat
ing. It was a two act production, Includ
ing besides that famous antitrust bill, now
entered upon Its third year of unshaken
slumber, the still more widely famed Bry-an-Naphen-Jenkins-Ray
committee's anti
trust amendment. Fresh as he then was
in the councils of the nation, the new
"man from Maine" brought with him a
keenness of perception and a sense of
humor which must have heightened his
enjoyment of that racy farce comedy.
That bill, although Intended to meet
death In the process of parturition, was
printed, and several copies of It are In ex
istence. Possibly Mr. Llttlefleld has one
of them. At any rate, he can readily ob
tain one, and he may find it edifying to
make a careful study of the means which
such distinguished statesmen as Messrs.
Ray, Jenkins, Parker, Overstreet, Alex
ander, Warner and others recommended
for the suppression of evils incident to
monopolistic combinations.
But If in the course of his investiga
tions of the operations of trusts and com
bines It should happen to occur to Mr.
Llttlefleld that some of the most extor
tionate and exasperating of the monopo
lies are sheltered by tariff schedules
which are not needed for protection or
revenue, what will he do then?
That article Is about as scathing as
anything written by Junius or spoken
by John Randolph of Roanoke. It
knocks the bottom clear out of the pre
tensions of the Republicans as trust
fighters and pillories Ray & Co. as fa
kirs. Of course everybody with any
snse knew all the time that the bill
spoken of was cheap and bold dema
gogy, but nobody has so tersely and
mercilessly exposed It as does the Post
In the aforementioned editorial. Such
organ grinders as the Globe-Democrat
make a show of believing that Ray
and his pals were In earnest, but they
only excite the derision of honest men.
When the devil sets about putting out
his fire, the Republicans will bust the
trusts and not before.
"Et Tu, Brute!"
The New York Evening Post, Inde
pendent, founded by Alexander Hamil
ton nnd for years edited by William
Cullen Bryant, author of "Thanatop
sts," makes tho following satirical re
marks touching the presidential mid
summer trust hunt:
We would not be thought to speak flip
pantly of the president's pians. He Is, no
doubt, In dead earnest. His sincerity In
the position which ho has taken on this
subject is as unquestionable as his cour
pge. We cannot, however, blind ourselves
to the fact that a long range summer
fight With trusts Js a very different thing
from coming to close grips with the mon
sters in tho winter at Washington. From
such a hand to hand contest the president
and his party havo just emerged, and tha
trusts were not the ones to come out of it
'considerable shuck up like" ans) "per
miscuously chawed." The truth Is, as a
careful study of the habits of the trust will
show, that animal is what may bo called
an estlvatlng instead of a hibernating
species. It sleeps peacefully the Hummer
through, caring not for tha loud cries of
Us assajlants, on stump or platform, tut
when tho winter conies, with an actual I
bill In congress, like Mr. Llttkofleld' of
this year, then It appears Rll teeth and
claws, and by the time the trust gets
through with that bill Its own father
would not recognize it.
Another Witness.
The Chicago Record, which support
ed Mr. McKinlcy In 1SO0, thus ex
presses Its opinion of the president's
antitrust crusade:
The most important observation con
tained in tho president's Pittsburg ad
dress is that In which ha declares that
new legislation Is needed on the subject
of trusts and combinations in restraint of
trade and industry.
Probably 99 per cent of the American
peopla will agree with the president on
the proposition that there should be addi
tional legislation relative to the trusts of
the criminal variety, but most of those
who are in earnest In their hostility to
such combinations will not support him
in his assumption that that legislation
should be in the line of regulation and
control exclusively.
The kind of legislation which would put
most of the great commercial plunderers
out of business could be effected by an
honest congress In a few days and in a
few words by placing the products of ev
ery lawless trust on the free list.
Mr. Roosevelt adheres to the policy
which makes trusts. He has no particular
regard for a policy which would unmako
them.
A La Silas Wean.
Readers of Charles Dickens of bless
ed memory will remember that at ir
regular and frequent intervals Silas.
Wegg dropped into poetry, a pleasant
if somewhat inartistic performance on
the part of Mr. Wegg. Some anony
mous writer, following Mr. Wegg's ex
ample, tackled the Philippine problem
lu this wise:
Spain once had a tiny lamb, the meek
est lamb around. She sold the lamb to
Uncle Sam for twenty millions down.
Then Sammy took it by the tail to lead
It home, you know. The mutton rare
turned out a bear, and Sam can't let 'er
go.
The poet, whoever he was, just about
exhausted the subject, with which ora
tors, statesmen and editors have been
wrestling for more than three years.

It is a question whether any purely
