FORTY CENT BACON (Continued from page 1.) ord, and they can't get away from it. Senator Beveridge was arguing that the trusts do not influence high prices. Among other things he said: "The price of meat on the table is temporarily higher and there is a meat trust." in the parlance of the day, "temporarily,” is "good.” Think of it! Six years ago Senator Beveridge admitted that-the price of meat was "temporarily higher.” Has it ever been lower since? Hardly. It has been growing higher and higher every year under the direction of the republican party and under the application of its theories of government. It has reached a point now where the American people will stand it no longer. They are against 40 cent bacon. “The opposition demands that the' tariff be taken from trust-made articles,” said Senator Beveridge in his speech. "How would that hurt the Standard Oil company, the greatest trust, *he most complete monopoly the world has ever seen? There is no tariff on oil. If the tariff is the cause of the trusts, what caused this greatest of trusts? It would not hurt the anthracite coal combination, if there is such a combination —there is no tariff on anthracite coal. It would not hurt the beef trust—but free cattle would hurt the American farmer and grazer who raises them.” “Why would we give free trade in trust-made articles? Because of increased prices? No, because trusts do not necessarily increase prices. No power could prevent the Standard Oil company from doubling or quadrupling the price of oil tomorrow. Yet oil has steadily fallen in price since that monopoly controlled it. Men not yet old remember when illuminating oil retailed at 90c a gallon; today refined oil is delivered at the door from one end of the republic to the other at from 15c to 20c a gallon. “Sugar has steadily fallen in price for forty years and yet there is a sugar trust. Coffee cost 120 per cent more ten years ago that it does today, and yet there is a coffee trust." Then Senator Beveridge takes up the other side and says: "On the other hand, the price of meat is temporarily higher, and there is a meat trust.” Senator Beveridge continued: “The price of beams is also higher, and there is no bean trust. Wheat is also higher and there is no wheat trust. Eggs are higher and there is no egg trust. So that we see in some articles controlled by trusts, prices fall, and in others prices temporarily rise, and the prices of still other articles not controlled by trusts have risen. So we see that the trusts do not necessarily raise prices. In many cases trust have lowered prices.” Thus Senator Beveridge defended the trusts which he now denounces as the “powers of pillage,” and incidentally, he admits that the cost of living began to be higher even six years ago. - o PUBLIC SALE.
