It is About Trusts A Remedy gested The Evil Growing. Sag- HE BKi SHOOT: TAKE? PLACE" IN' CORVALLIS 6N. THE TWENTY. SECOND.. For sometime past various news papers have been 8 git a ting the "trust" question. Especially has this been. tbe case during- our po litical campaigns, and not only has it been discussed tbroogn the press bat has. beeji a general subject for street-corner debates. In fact, it is fast becoming one of the mott im portant question-?, not only or po litics, but of the people generally. Tbe time has come for something to be done to stop the giant com binations of capital called trusts. tbe object of which is, in most cases, to gain power enough to coo, trol a certain article of manufacture or production, thereby giving tt the corporation or trnst , absolute power to regu ate the prices of ar ticles manufactured by it or that it may wish to buy from the pro ducer. Whrle it is absolutely necessary to form companies and unite a cer tain amonnt of capital for the pur pose of conducting many maou- factoring and business, enterprises li certainty is neitner necessary aor right for a few men who own or control mi lions of dollars ti unite that vast amount of wealth in a trust for the purpose of forcing smaller and less wealthy compan ies out of business And yet that is what they are doing right along.

He believed there wan arsenic in it and saved some of it. It was analyzed afterward, and found lo contain it, and after Miy brick's death the poiton itself vras f und where it was believed that Mrs. May brick had hidden it. This was the skeleton ot the case a gainsther. 1 Judge Stephens, who was jadge of the trial court, has been accused of unfairness. His charge to tbe jury ehocked even tbe English bar and many American jurists com pared iu venom and prejudice tn ' tbe diatribes of Jeffrie? in the "bloody aseizes.' Jusiic3 Stephens hated Americans and had been for years a contributor of rancorous ar ticlea on things Arasricao to tbe Saturday Review, a rabidly anti American weekly. He bad been in .the habit of arraying himself more or lass openly on one fide or anoth er of most cases which came before him. He was declared to be insane and died in a sanitarium for the in sane. Two of the most eminent physi cians in England, Dr. Charles Mv mont Tidy, M. B. F. C. S., and Dr. Rawdon McNamara, P. R. C. S. I., testified directly against the murder theory. The mother of Mrs. May brick is the Birooess von Roque- The suit for land. in America, which brought out the statement by the Home Office that Mrs. Maybrick would be released, is for possession of 2,252,300 acres of land and tor $300,000. Tbe Birooesa alleges that D. W. Armstrong, a lawyer, deceived her as to the value of the lands, and tricked her inti selling at a very much lower price than could have been secured. The prop erty was inherited from her father, D. B. Hollbrook, of Alexander ' county, Kentucky. Tbe British attorney for Mrs Mavbrick never csased to work lor etc, and the revenue from these by products more than pays for the production of themselves and the coal oil as well. Therefore the oil coats them nothing, consequently they can sell it at a very low prica and still make money on it. Now suppose some smaller company puts out oil ti compete with the product of tbe Standard Oil Co. and succeed a iu establishing a market for their oil. what does the Standard Oil Co. do? Pot the price of coal oil below wbat the other company can make it fir and keep it there until they "fieeze." out their opposition and then run the price up .higher than it was be fore to make -ba-k what they lost while "freezing" out the other com pany, . And fo it is all down along the line, There is tbe billion-dollar steel trust, controlling the iron and 6teel market; the food tru-t, which practically controls prepared foods; the beef trust for canned meats; bicysle trust, which is doing all In its power to gain control of all the leading bicycle tact rie3; tne plow trnst; camera trust, rubber tru-t, and many other, each controlling or trying to control its particular product throughout tne entire country- Now the questions naturally arise do we want the , trust monopoly? And if nrt.Jhow can it be prevent ed or at least, regulated? It is al most impossible to make laws that wiil prevent the forming of trust? or even place any restriction on them.Then the best and perhaps the only way to accomplish any results is for tbe people to tike the matter iu hand and every one refuse to buy or use any article of trust manufacture or production when ever they Cin possibly do so, there by giving support to the independ ent manufacturers. If every per- Bon in the Uoitsd States had been doing this for the past ten years. we would have fewer trusts, more independent manufacturing estab lishments, better prices, and better times tiday. Oq the other haad, if tbey are allowed to continue as in the past few years, it win ba but a very short time until a com paratively few men will own ana control the entire manufacturing resources ot the American contin ent.
