Advertisers will appreciate this fact when selecting a medium in which to reach the buyers. Republican Record on Trusts. It is the Republican party, not the Democratic, says the St. Louis Demo crat, that has legislated nationally against trusts. A Democratic Con gress never originated any anti-trust law, but a law of this nature bus been greatly weakened by Democratic votes. Thus stands the oillclnl record of Congress. Republican administra tions have acted in restraint of trusts. Democratic administrations have either done nothing or undermined the Republican statute passed for trust restriction. Many Democrats who are shouting for an anti-trust campaign next year imagine that they have turned up a new issue, and one in which their party is not handicapped by past mis deeds and blunders. They are mis taken. As far as Congress has acted 011 this question since 1800 the Repub lican policy has been to prohibit monopolistic business combinations and the Democratic policy to over throw the anti-trust provisions passed by the party they antagonize. These facts will surprise many Democrats now so enthusiastic over their new found issue. But the truth of the matter is imbedded in the laws of the country, where comparison is easy, and in tho reports of Congress, whose accuracy is unchallenged. In the McKinley tariff law of 1800 is a section to the effect that "Every contract, combination in the form of trust or otherwise, or conspiracy, in restraint of trade or commerce among the several states, or with foreign nations, Is hereby declared to be illegal." A person infringing the law was made liable to a fine not ex ceeding $5000, or imprisonment for one year, or both. The same penalty was provided against any person at tempting to form sucb combinations. This law was passed in 1800 by Re publican votes, every Democrat and Populist in both houses of Congress voting against it. By the election of 1802 the entire political control of the country passed to the Democrats. In 1801 they put through the Wilson bill, repealing the McKinley law of 1800, and vitally modifying the anti-trust sections re ferred to, giving it a free trade bias, and affecting exclusively trusts en gaged in the importing trade, of which, as a matter of fact, there are none. The McKinley law of 1800 made all trusts engaged in interstate commerce illegal. The Wilson law of 180-1 cut this out, every Democrat voting for and every Republican against the change. When the Ding ley law was under consideration Re publicans wanted to restore theantf- trust sections to their original form, but they had no majority in the Senate, and found it impossible to reinstate the law. Any fair minded person who -will compare the McKinley law of 1800 with the Wilson law of 1804 will see the radical change made in tho anti trust clauses. The Republican law restrained all trusts; the Demooratie law narrowed the whole subject to importers of foreign goods concerned in trusts. It was the Republican pur pose to destroy the trusts. The I)emoaratio object was to destroy tho protective idea and to charge upon protection the development of trusts, Since the Wilson law was passed the Republicans have had no majority in both houses until the election of the presont Congress, which has not yet assembled, and will not meet until '"The Prudent Man Setteth His House in Order." Your human tenement should be given even more careful attention than the house you live in.

There are strong indications now iti Democratic speeches and comment thnt the talk against trusts is to bo mixed up with an attack on a protec tive turilT. The trusts have to thank this free trade game for their Wilson law windfall of 1804, with its changes in the law relieving them from prose cution unless engaged in tho import ing trado.
