less regards it as the .duty of the exe-
cutive to enforce the statute.
He says;
There has been a marked tendency in
"business in this country for 40 years
last past towards a combination of
company and plant in manufacture sale
and transportation. The moving causes
have been several:
they violate no law. If their actual
competitors are small in comparison
with total capital invested the pros-
pect of investments of capital by
others in such a profitable business is
sufficiently near and potential to re-
strain them in the prices at which they
sell their product.
A Trust Defined.
But if they attempt by a use of their
preponderating capital and by a sale of
their goods temporarily at unduly low
prices to drive out of business their
competitors or if they attempt by ex-

the hand tool to the machine. When
therefore we come to construe the ob-
ject of congress in adopting the so-
called "Sherman anti-trust act" in 1890
we must infer that the evil aimed at
was not the mere bigness of the enter-prise-but
the aggregation of capital and
plants with the express or implied in-
tent to restrain interstate or foreign
commerce or to monopolize It in whole
or in part.
Competition Destroyed.
"vlonopoly destroys competition utter-
ly and the restraint of the full and free
operation of competition has a tendency
to restrain commerce and trade.
A mere incidental restraint of trade
and competition is iyit within the inhi-
bition of the Sherman act but it is
where the combination or conspiracy
or contract is inevitably and directly
a substantial restraint of competition
and so a Vestraint of trade that the
statute is violated.
It is possible those manufacturing
and selling useful articles of merchan-
dise so as to conduct their business Is not
to violate the inhibitions o- zne anti-
trust law and yet to secure themselves
the benefits of the economies of man-
agement and of production due to the
concentration under one control of
large capital and many plants.
If they use no other inducement than
the constant low price of their product
and its good quality to attract custom
and their business is a profitable one
Medicines that aid nature are always
most successful. Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy acts on this plan. It loosens
The cough relieves the lungs opens the
secretions and aids nature in restoring

by all druggists.
The object of the anti-trust law was
to suppress the abuses of the business
of the kind described.
It -was not to interfere with a great
volume of capital which concentrated
under one organization reduced the
cost of production and made its profit
thereby and took no advantage of its
size by methods akin to duress to stifle
competition.
The Monopolistic Idea.
The original purpose of many com-
binations of capital in this country
was not confined to the legitimate and
proper object of reducing the cost of
production. On the contrary the his-
tory of most trades wjll show at times
a feverish desire to unite by purchase
combination or otherwise all the
plants in the country engaged in the
manufacture of a particular kind of
goods. The idea "was rife that thereby
a monopoly could be effected and a con-
trol of prices brought about which
would Inure to the profit of those en-
gaged In the combination. The path of
commerce is strewn with failures of
such combinations. There were enough
successful combinations however to
arouse the fears of good patriotic men
as to the result of a continuance of this
movement toward the concentration in
the hands of a f&w of the absolute
control of the prices of ail manufac-
tured products. x
There have come along in the slow
but certain course of judicial disposi-
tion cases involving a construction of
the anti-trust statute and its applica-
tion until now they seem to embrace
every phase of that law which can be
practically presented to the American
public and to the government for ac-
tion. They show that the anti-trust act
ACCEPTED XE6lClSr FOR MEMOR-IAX TO WOlTEN OF
THE CONFEDERACY.- .SUBMITTED KY "MISS BEU.E XINNEy
Atlanta Ga. Jan. 7. Several of the
southern states already have move-
ments under way for "the purchase of
replicas of the bronze heroic statue
memorializing the confederacy for
which the design of Hiss Belle Kinney
has been accepted by the committee.
Miss Kinney will receive $50000 for
each statue and has a guarantee that
not less thamten will be taken. A local
art critic describes the design thus:
"Miss Kinney has marvelously shown
the spirit which actuated the women of
the south in the '60s In her beautiful
group of three figures composed of
Fame seated In the center; on her
left a dying confederate soldier and to
her right the confederate woman.
"Miss Kinney does not separate the
soldier and the woman but shows them
together on the battlefield moved by
the same spirit the same loyalty and
with the same hope "burning In their
hearts;
"The soldier is depicted dying but
with his last strength raising the con-
federate flag; the woman with all the
hope love and devotion of body ana
soul strained into her desire is trying
to place victory on the breast of the
soldier.
"In this typical southern woman re-
fined aristocratic and delicately beauti-
ful is depicted the strength and loyalty
of a great soul loyalty which makes
every effort possible and every sacri-
fice . sweet for the soldier and his
cause."
has a -wide scope and applies to many
combinations in actual operation ren-
dering them unlawful and subject to in-
dictment and restraint.
Supreme Court's Act.
The supreme court in several of its
decisions has declined to read into the
statute the word "unreasonable" be-
fore "restraint" on the ground that the
statute applies to all restraints and
does not intend to leave to the court the ;
discretion to determine what Is a rea-
sonable restraint of trade. Tho expres-
sion "restraint of trade" comes from
the common law and at common law
there were certain covenants incidental
to the carrying out of a main or prin
cipal contract which were said to be j by them in the method of doing busi
covenants in partial restraint of trade
and were held to be enforceable because
"reasonable" adapted to the perform-
ance of the main or principal contract.
A close examination of the later de-
cisions of the court shows quit-s clearly
in cases presenting the exact question
that such incidental restrain s of trnje
ent principle which wall insure the uni-
formity of decision essential to just
judgment.
TVTint the Law Says.
In considering violations of the Anti-
trust law we must not forget that the
law makes unlawful methods of carry-
ing on business which before its pas-
sage were regarded as evidence of
business sagacity and success and that
that they were denounced in this act
not because of their Intrinsic morality
but because of the dangerous results
toward which they tended.
In dealing with the men who have
used the methods condemned by the
statute we may well facilitate a change
ness and enable them to bring it back
into the zone of lawfulness without
losing to the country the economy of
management by which cost of produc-
tion has been materially lessened and
j bur foreign trade greatly increased.

that to be within the statute the effect
upon the trade of the restraint must
be direct and not merely incidental or

an amendment of the statute so as to

covenants in restraint of trade held
for the formation of corporations to en
gage in trade and commerce among
states and with foreign nations; protect-
ing them from undue interference by
the states and regulating their activities

essential that the national government
shall provide for tlie creation of nation-

business throughout the United States.
The conflicting laws of -ne different
states of the union with ra-spect to for-
eign corporations make il difficult if
not impossible for one corporation' to
comply with all their renulremej'-s so as
to carry on business in a number of dif-
ferent states.
Does Tiot Repeal Shernmh Law.
- The measure contemplated does not
repeal the Sherman anti-trusr laAv and
is not to be so framed as to permit the
wrongs which it is the purpose of that
law to prevent but'only to fojster a con-
tinuance and advance of the highest in-
dustrial efficiency without 'permitting
industrial abuses.
The government is now trying to dis-
solve some of these combinations and it
is not the intention of the government
to desist in tho least degree In its ef-
fort to end these combinations which
are today monopolizing the commerce of
this country. It is not the intention of
the government to permit monopoly to
exist under federal incorporations or
to transfer to the protecting wing of the
federal government the state corpora
tion now-violating the Sherman act.
But it is not and should not be the
pollcj' of the government to prevent rea-
sonable concentration of capital which
is necessary to the economic develop-
ment of tiade.
Believe It Constitutional.
There arc those who doubt the con-
stitutionality of such federal incorpora-
tion. The regulation of the interstate
and foreign commerce is certainly con-
firmed in the fullest measure upon
congress and if the purpose of securing
in the most thorough manner that kind
of regulation congress shall insist that
to "which there is any reasonal'
ground for suspicion that they have
been organized in violation of the anti-
trust law. But such an investigation
r and possible prosecution of corpora
tions whose prosperity of destruction
affects the comfort not only of stock-
holders but of millions of wage earn-
ers employes and associated trades
must necessarily tend to disturb the
confidence of the business community

Federal Supervision.
The question which L wish in this
message to bring clearly tothe con-
sideration and discussion of congress
Is whether in order to avoid such a
possible business danger something
cannot be -done by which these business
combinations may be offered a means
without great financial disturbance of
changing the character organization
and extent of their business Into one
within the lines of the law under fed
eral control and supervision securing
compliance with the anti-trust statute.
It is possible so to frame a statute
that while it offers protection to a fed- j
eral company against harmful vexa-

states. It shall subject it to reason

Good and Bad Trusts.
Many people conducting great "busi-

lief that in some way or other a line
