By giving the comparison of the record of the Roosevelt administration in the matter of prooeutlons as ccutrnsted with tlie records of Cleveland. McKinley and Harrison you invite a compaisMi of the records of these administrations as to trusts. Carefully compiled statistics show that trusts whtc organized in the Knlted State under the past four administrations as follows: Cnder Harrison. 'Sr. under Cleveland (second temu 0: under McKinley, 127: und under Koosevelt, 10ft. Inasmuch as there are now 2sl trusts In America It appears that there were twenty-three before Mr. Harrison became "president and that2H have been organized slnre 1NSS. If the depart ment of justice has been os diligent asj the Interests of the people demand, would the number of trusts have .mul i tiplled so rapidly. Not oilly wculdj the trusts doing businos-s hare been put out of business, but men would not have put money luto new trust if they had believed that the law against trusts and against persons guilty of combining would be vlgorouly enforced. 1 Mibmlt that by the test of pumstiIng luwlireakei-s and deterring others from violating the law the eternal and true test the exectitlon of the anti-trust laws by the federal govern ment is a failure; and that tire existence and nourishing condition of the very trusts you hnve prosecuted conVinci's the people that die tnifts are Miperlor to law, or us Wwodrow Wll-i-on. president of I'rinceton university, baid last week: "The most striking fact about the actual organization of modern society Is that the most conspicuous, the most readily wielded, and the most formidable power Is not the power of the government, but the power of capital. Men of our day In Knglaud and America have almost forgotten what It Is to four the got crumcut, but have found out what It is to fear the power of capital, to watch it with Jealousy and tutsplfiou, and trace to It the source 'if every open or hidden wrong." 1 submit that the collection of fines from trusts aggregating a million dolIura. If you had collected so much, which has not been done, would be no punishment worth the name of pun ishment to the '57 trusts with an aggregate cnp tallzatlon of ?0.17i.44S.STil.UO. The UnltiR process In trust prosecution Is analogous t those line imposed by a iolice justice njMti per sons keeping illegal resorts in towns. These lines often operate as a sliding scale of license Inx so may dollars whenever the aroused moral sense of the community will no longer be silent while the lawless dive debauches the people. What the iwople wish to know s this: How ma ii j trusts nave you compelled to dissolve in truth, and not merely to otiieiaiiy dissolve, ami then continue to tlx the price, ns the dissolved paper trust has done? The meat trust paid a tine and soon put up the prices of all that tuen must eat by Mime now-you-see-lt-nnd-now-you-don't sleight of hand thnt seems to escape further prosecution while continuing to levy a tax upon all the people. No prosecution of the trusts Is effective that is not felt by the public In relieving them of trust imposition in whaf they buy.

Mr. Dawes distinctly argues for the In.uniii',e bleu that Bryan ndvocated in cot.ivss and uihiii which Ida campaign is now advancing in tlie west. Referring to a proposed law, advocated by Bryan in congress, which would have levied a tax upon national banks for the purpose of creel. ng a fund for the Insurance of deposits, Mr. Dawes wrote: "National banking statistics show thnt it fund o' the necessary amount would soon be created by a comparatively sunt II tax upon each national hank. It must certainly be admitted that tie establishment of such, u fund wo.
