"My chief objections (o a needlessly high tariff is that
it nourishes monopoly. It holds forth a constant tempta
tion to the formation' of little trusts which often are more
directly oppressive to the consumer than biy; orios."
In other words, trusts are the product of special privi
lege. The tariff is one of (hose special privileges others
arc taxation on industry :lnd its products, monopoly of
natural resources, highways, patents, etc.
' If special privilege is the cause, why attempt by spe
cial legislation, like the Sherman anti-trust, law, to break
iu the trusts? "Whv not abolish the privileges'

tial wrong that gives a combination a monopoly. It at
tacks the" non-essentials, forbidding formation of contin
uations and leaving the cause of the combination the
special privilege to lure the trust creators.
Any legislation that attempts to remedy the effect
rather than the cause is simply dust to blind the gullible
people.

THE United States army board has recommended tin
appropriation of $700,000 for the Construction of
highways iii the Crater Lake National park, $100,000 to
be available each year tor seven years.
Maior Morrow, under whose supervision the surveys
were made, estimates $642,000 as the sum necessary for
the proposed system of roads and trails, with .yo',UUU
additional for sprinkling tanks and incidental construc
tion. The estimated annual expense and maintenance is
placed at $20,000.
Major Morrow's plans have been approved by General
Bixby, chief of engineers, United States army. The ap
propriation is also favored by Secretary Fisher of the
interior department and Secretary Wilson of the agricul
tural department.
With the entire Oregon delegation working for the
appropriation, with Will Ch Steel as special representa
tive of Jackson county and the city of Mcdford on the
ground, prospects seem bright for Crater Lake at last
securing that recognition long due from the government.
The proposed road around the crater's rim will be the
scenic drive of the world.
THE EXPERIMENT STATION.
ACTION of the county court in offering a portion of
the poor farm property for an agricultural and hor
ticultural experiment station is to tic eommenaeci.
The site chosen is not only central, but has other ad
vantages in character of soil and abundance of water.
It is better that the county furnish the property than
that any individual or firm should be interested, lest they
take an undue advantage of their position and make un
warranted demands upon the station.
With its great horticultural interests, as well as its
agricultural possibilities, with its great diversity in soils,
the Rogue river valley, more than any section in the state,
needs an experimental station to tissist the farmer and
cooperate with the orchardist.
Effort should be made to increase the annual appro
priation for maintenance from $5000 to $10,000 at the
next session of tfie legislature.
