Discussing the charges made the Chicago News said: "There are surface indications that : I i : the buying and selling of votes on election day went on with an openness that was most extraordinary. Peo ple talked freely about the traffic and even discussed the prices received by individuals for selling their votes. Such a condition of affairs in intelli gent American communities is appal- Ing. It is high time that active pros ecutions should bring home to such communities the Infamy of practice tolerated by them." It is Indeed high time that steps were taken to put an end to such prac tises. The business should be stopped or those communities be placed In a 4 separate district and quarantined to prevent a spread of the epidemic ; While such work as that is going on In the heart of America we have lit 4 tie room for jibes at the benighted J Filipino. ' I It Is interesting to note the issue break tha por of the money trunl so that new people desiring to enter a line of business in competition with monopoly could be assured of the ac commodations to which they are en titled. It is the view of the president that what business needs is a fair field and a fair field for competition Is a field In which efficiency alone shall count and where no weapons can be used except superior brains, methods and energy. He would curb a trust from arbitrarily crushing a new rival mere ly because it has the power and would see that It fought only along legiti mate lines. His view Is that the con cern that can provide the service at the lowest cost Is the one who should get the business but he would not stand for mere temporary price cut ting to freeze out a new rlvaL That is piracy rather than honest compe tition. As applied to the auto bus business the Roosevelt-Perkins theory would be that monopoly being preferable the street car companies should be left In control and-, the auto busses km ' 1 , . - ...MmimMiMrfimiimtnmmtlimMtll'i Illllllllllllill E 1 ' ' .

Aus trian If these two powers do get involved In the fray the effect, from appearances, will be to turn the tide decisively in favor of the allies. In number of men subject to military duty the allies now greatly exceed their foe and it is said Italy and Rou manla together would be able to pro vide a well trained military force to the extent of 100.000 or 1,000,000 soldiers. Such men would be more formidable than the same number of new recruits from England for the reason they would be trained fighters whereas the English rookies axe fre quently without such training as Eng land does not compel military service. It is safe to say that the entrance of Italy and Roumanla into the war would count for much more to the allies than would the participation of the Japanese. Furthermore the al- now raised all over the country by the - - competition - of The Jitney Bus and auto busses with street cars and then to consider the Roosevelt-Parkins theory of trust handling as compared with the ideas of Woodrow Wilson. The bull moosa theory as enunci ated prior to Armageddon was to the effect monopoly is inevitable and that we must rely on regulation for safety. Under that plan of action the various truit would have become - legalised and guaranteed profits on their swol en capitalizations. In theory the plan would have been not so bad but in actual working It would have meant the trusts would have dictated the manner of their regulation1' and from a standpoint of results the regulatory scheme would have been to the pub lic merely an expensive gold brick. At least this is a fair Interpretation of the Wilson view as gathered from his speeches and writings. . The) pres ident believes great progress can be made towards restoring competition and upholds the democratic doctrine that private monopoly is Indefensible and Intolerable. He has pointed out that the average trust is so water logged that it is inefficient and can not stand stiff competition. Tel competition for that trust is exactly what the country needs. It Is the sur est way to get rid of the water,: , . ( The idea of President Wilson was that the first step, after the revision of the tariff, should consist in fin ancial reform so as to bring greater credit freedom. The great purpose back of the new banking law was to competition for safety, The Woodrow Wilson plan .would 3 be that a new competitor, like the s3 auto bus, should be encouraged and 5 allowed to win out If it "has the 3 goods." Instead of allowing the trac S Hon companies to kill the new com- 3 Petltor by piratical 'methods of any . g sort the proper thing for the govern- ment would be to p-e that the fight Is free and open and that victory should go to the side actually able to Hjg provide the service at the lowest cost. Incidentally if this rule is applied to this particular problem the Jitney U e3 likely to win because it does not have 3 any watered stock to carry, or any tracks, wires or big overhead charges 3 to handicap It In the fight H Carried to Its logical view the dem- ocratic idea Is that when monopoly 3 cannot be avoided and competition is gl impossible the government should step In and by governmental owner- fE3 hip conduct the buiness In behalf of 3 the people.
