David A. Wells Unld That the t.ntter
( on 1I Only Insist Thrntiith
the Former.
In 1892 tho late David A. Wells wrote
H short Vind vlgorouB editorial on trusts,
which Is as applicable today as then.
"What Is a trust? In the popular
and political sense, It means a combin
ation of the domestic producers of cer
tain commodities to control production
and advance prices. No trust of this
kind, operating on articles for which
there Is a possible competitive supply
from other countries, could be main
tained In the United States for a Blngle
month except under one or two condi
tions, either all the competitive pro
ducers throughout the world must be
brought Into the 'trust,' or, what la the
same thing, the product of the whole
world must be controlled; or the prod
uct of all the foreign producers must
be shut out from the markets of the
country.
"The first result Is not attainable. It
would be obviously impracticable to
Induce all the manufacturers of starch,
lor example. In all the different coun
tries of Europe, to unite and put the
control of their business In hands of
trustees reading In the United States.
The second Is made not only possible,
but effective in the nlghest degree, by
the Imposition of tariffs, or duties, on
the importation of the arfc les in which
the trusts are especially interested, so
high as to completely bar them out of
the American market. The duties the
McKlnley tariff act provides. (The
Dlngley tariff re-enacted or increased
them.)
"It thus becomes the creator and pre
server of trusts and monopolies, the
like of which cannot and do not exist
under the tariff system of Great Brit
ain, as the starch trust, plate and win
dow glass trust, nail trust, linseed oil
trust, lead trust, cotton bagging trust,
borax trust, ax, saw and scythe trust,
cracker, cake and biscuit trust, rubber
boot and shoe trust, and many others,
all of which, freed from foreign compe
titon, are advancing prices to American
consumers to an extent that will afford
them from 50 to 100 per cint more
profit than can be fairly considered as
legitimate, but in which profits their
employes do not participate.
"There are more than 100 trusts in
the United States that could have no
existence except for the high duties
that have been enacted or kept on in
order to maintain and protect them.
How did your representative In the late
congress vote?
"Did he vote for the salt trust, pro
tected and alone made capable of exist
ence by a duty of 44 to 85 per cent?
"Did he vote for the window glass
trust, with a protection of from 120
to 135 per cent?
"Did he vote for the linseed oil trust,
with a protection of over 90 per cent?
"Did he vote for the white lead trust,
with a protection of 75 per cent?
"Did he vote for the starch trust,
with a protection of 90 per cent?
"Did he vote for the steel trust, with
a protection running from 40 to 115 per
per cent?
"And so of all the other trusts pro
tected by the tariff, and especially by
the McKlnley bill (and the Dlngley
bill). Look them tip, and If you find
that your representative voted for such
an imposition of taxes as alone per
mits them to exist, make him explain
why he did so."

At the Jefferson Day banquet of the
Democratic club, Brooklyn, a letter of
regret from ex-Governor Boies, of
Iowa, was read, as follows:
"I am sorry it Is impossible for me
to attend the Jefferson banquet.
"The war with Spain was a reafflrm
once of the principle underlying our
own form of government, that found
expression in a loyal declaration by a
united people that Cuba should of
right be free. No nation on earth ever
championed a nobler cause.
"The end came. The grip of a tyrant
had been broken. Spain was at our
feet, Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philip
pines at our disposal. It needed but a
simple demand from us to make them
forever free. But here we halted. A
word that would have made the name
of America Immortal was never spoken.
"Greed took the place of charity and
usurped the throne of Justice. We
wanted an excuse for exploiting the
Philippines, and made a voluntary do
nation of $20,000,000 of gold to Spain
to find it. What followed? I wish to
God we could blot from the annals of
our race this page of American history,
as it muse be written and go shame
faced, as it will, through all the ages
to come.
"The truth is, wo have simply chang
ed places with Spain and snatched
from her palsied nand the sword she
could no longer wield and turned it
against a race she had become power
less further to oppress.
"Look at the little island of Porto
Rico, that welcomed us as deliverers
from an oppressor's hand. What do
we find? A people denied the most
valuable privileges they enjoyed under
a despotism that furnished our only
excuse for war; a race of vassals with
out a right we are bound to respect
foreigners, in fact, who cannot enter
our gates without paying tribute on the
products of their toil or take unincum
bered from our hands that which their
needs require yet our subjects in
name, over whom the American flag
is to float forever, to be ruled as our
lordly will may determine.
"With unseemly haste a Republican
congress and a Republican president
struck from the statutes of their coun
try a tariff tax framed for revenue,
the only purpose for which taxeB can
rightly be luid, and built in its place a
huge wall in front of every port of the
nation, in the shadows of which an In
famous brood of life sucking trusts
have been nursed, until there is scarce
ly a manufactured necessity of life the
market prlco of which to Anierlcun
consumers Is not fixed by the greed of
some giant corporation. We are at
the threshold of another national cam
paign. The Issues upon which It is
to be fought will be made by the Dem
ocratic party. What shall they be?
Antl-lniperiullsm, anil-monopoly and
death to trusts."

If you have "a good mind to
write to Dr. Pierce" take pen in
hand and begin. Then you'll
avoid the experience of Mrs. M. P.
Davis, of Houaker, Russell Co.,
Va. She writes :
" For seven years I wa9 confined to
bed most of the time. I had ulceration
of internal organ s and female weakness,
I had four doctor and they said I could
ot be cured After the doctors said
I could not be cured I wrote to Doctor
Pierce for advice I followed the
advice he gave I feci better than I
ever did. My friends say I do not look
like the same woman. am sorry I did
not take Dr. Pierce's medicine when I
first began to have poor health. I could
Lave saved, what I paid to humbugs."
No one ever regretted writing to
Dr. Pierce for advice. Many have
regretted not writing sooner.
Sick women are invited to con
sult Dr. Pierce by letter, free, and
so obtain the opinion and advice of
a socialist in diseases peculiar to
women. All correspondence pri
