They are extremly powerful io their aggregated strength, and simpiv despise and defy Ihe usual pro cesses of law. Tney are bold. aggressive, defiant, of supreme insolence and power. The ably edited Norfolk Virginian Pilot in a st roug article against trusts, says this: "Evon a sit g!e trust is a mons ter of such maguitude, resources and potentiality that, if for uo other reason, it should not be tol erated among a free people; and their united combination is so stupendous and formidable a menace to a;! liberty that not only the coilosal central trust.'but every trust coming under feder al jurisdiction should be treated as a conspiracy and rebellion in compatible with the safety of government and its due adminis tration's well asfwith the rights liberties and interests of the peo pie. " That they can" be dealt with effectually, even now, by any mild measures .we do not believe, as with rare exceptions,, the federal courts, with many state ones, cu riously invest t; era with all the rights, powers, privileges and immunities of individuals, and exempt them f mm: all the liabili . ties, restrictions and proeesses that attach to the private person it is the political power of -4he country that can aione directly wrestle with this monster; and the sooner it brings its force to the work, the better for the coun Uy."

The exam pies of Franklin, Clay, Washington and Lincoln show us that --one does not necessarily have 'o possess riches, beauty or influential friends in order to be great, 1 although I confess many have been raised to fame by the influence of others.
