"Tlio hostility of legislatures and
Congress canio to bo directed against
all successful investment of capital
without discrimination. Nothing Is
so timid nb capital,' and nothing Ib
so easily able to tako caro of what

Ho then said that a doplorablo
featuro of such oxcess of remedy
was that tho wago earners suffered
most.
"Tho closo and absolute supervis
