MEW CURB FOR THE TRUSTS.'
Senator Clapp, of Minnesota,
Jias a new law to propose for the
regulation of the trusts. He would
-by statue governing interstate
commerce forbid the trusts to
undersell their goods in any
market. It has been demonstrat
ed many times that the most fa
tal blow that the trusts can deal
a rival is to undersell him in his
own territory, forcing him in the
•end to combine with the big cor
poration or be crushed by the
competition.
In South Dakota there is a law
-which provides that any one en
-tBuged in the production, manu
facture or distribution of any
commodity in general use, that
intentionally, for the purpose of
^destroying the competition of any
regular established dealer in such
-commodity or to prevent the com
petition of any person who in
Sood faith intends to become such
•dealer, shall discriminate by sell
-ing at a lower rate in ona section
4han another shall be guilty of a
crime and liable to a fine.
Senator Clapp is seeking to
give the South Dakota law a na
tion-wide scope and an increased
effectiveness, for within the state
the effect of the law is limited
--4o an interstate commerce and
•-affects only a particular class—
those selling goods in two places
in the state, and is intended for
the protection of only a particu
lar class—the regular establish
-*d dealers. The South Dakota
statute ha's been brought before
the Supreme Court of the United
States and supported by the de
cision of an undivided bench.
^T)ne of the eritorious features of
the law commented upon by Ihe
-court was Ihe ultimate benefit it
would be to buyers and In con
sumers. _
A SUCCESSOR TO DR. WILEY.
Secretary Wilson lias chosen
Dr Carl L. Alsberfr In succeed Dr.
AVile\ in enforcing Hie Pure Pood
and Drugs act. The Secretary ut
Agriculture gave Solicitor Mc
Cabe power to “abate” thousands
•of Dr. Wiley's cases against vio
lators of the law, who kept from
going straight to the District Al
“torney for trial before the courts
questions which President Taft
.said were "of capital importance
—to the public” and on which the
investigating cnmmitlee reported
.that court decisions “are com
prehended umhVr the plain pro
vision of Ihe law.” Secretary
,Wilson has failed to dismiss Mc
-Cabe for trumping up charges
that led the Attorney General to
ask that Dr. Wiley he “permitted
to resign.” President Taft has
failed to take the “much more'
Tadioal measures” promised when
h exonerated Dr. Wiley. Secre
tary Wilson, who strained and
violated Ihe law, is in place and
in power. And he has appointed
an untried man to succeed the of
ficial who for so many years
withstood and defied Ihe gang of
food poisoners and drug adul
terators who encamped about him
in Washington.
Dr. Alsberg has an impossible j
lask. If is not simply because
nubile political influences were
used lo recommend him to thQ
press before his name was men
tioned by the officials in Wash
ington. The administration that
retains McCabe and Wilson can
not be trusted to let. them choose
Dr. Wiley’s successor. We feel
sure that President. Wilson, who
conspicuously championed the
cause of Dr. Wiley during the
presidential campaign, will take
into his own hands the reorgan
ization of the department, and
with it the Bureau of Chemistry;
that he will insist upon a com
plete uprooting of the evil
growths that have brought scan
dal and censure upon the admin
istration of the law.
EDITORIAL MOTES.
A Valdez jury is again haggling
over the question: “When is a
Siwash not a Siwash.”
Evidently the mail service is
going on the theory that the late
delivery of the mail is better than
never. _
There are quite a number of
women who are wishing that pin
had penetrated deeper into Caru
so’s throat.
Through some oversight the
Seatlle-Alaska politicians have
overlooked a commissionership
in the Kuskokwim country.
It would not at all be surpri
sing to hear of Puget Sound
people' coming north to Alaska
to enjoy it’s mild winters.
The moment the Democrats be
gin operating on the tariff we
will be able to locate just where
(he protected interests lie.
The fashion plates will be
closely scanned by the unini
tiated to ascertain how Mrs.
Dr. Yamei Kim’s trousers are cut.
If President Taft lias overlook
ed any vacancies in the federal
service he will be thankful to any
standpatter who will advise him
of his oversight.
There’s a boom on for the Por
tuguese throne, as the republic
finds it necessary to arm fifty
thousand additional men to keep
it from being jumped.
It must have been the struc
tural iron workers who thought
of the ghastly joke of throwing
a dummy from the top of the
Smith building in Seattle.
Since sardines are nothing
more or less than canned her
ring, there is no reason why we
can not excel in the industry as
long as seal oil holds out.
Now that a jury has found
Biehl, one of the irrigation fraud
agents, guilty of swindling the
public, it is time for the presi
dent to get ready with a pardon.

It i a fact that Valdez beer is a food and not a tonic. :
Ask any doctor you know. Valdez beer aids digestion. Use i
it a few times with your meals and you’ll find we’re right. <
If you drink teer you should use Valdez beer in preference to j
others. First, because of its unquestionable high quality. <
Second, because it is a home product; brewed in your home j
