Commencement Notes.
The great burden of the subject
matter of the young, men's declama
tions this morning made it a most
fitting memorial day for the dead sol
dier boys of '61, both Confederate and
Federal. The daring deeds of those
days yet fire tho-mluds and hearts of
our young Americans and they will
neve rtire of eulogising what their
fathers did 1 hen, nor ill the people
ever tire of hearing and cheering the
01a, okl etory. And the modern he
roes, like Hobso sad Fitxhueh Lee,
came in for their-slytre of the glory.
1 hough there was -nothing doing

them we note: Misses Bessie Bangle,

was a menace to the industrial and
economic advancement of the entire
country.
At the same lime the court interp
reted the Sherman anti-trust law so
as to limit its application to acts of
"undue restraint of trade and not
every "-restraint of trade. It was
on this point that the only discord
ant note was heard in the court,!
Justice Harlan dissented, claiming
that eases already decided by the
court had determined once for all, I
that the word "undue" or "unrea-
sonsble" or similar wogds, were not
in the statue. He declared that the
reasoning of the court in arriving at
its findings was in effect legislation
which belonged in every instance to
Congress and not to the courts.
Ever since the decree in this ease
in'the llwer court, the United States
circuit court for the eastern district
of Missouri, was announced, hope
was expressed by the " business
world" that the law would be modi-
fled so as not to interfere with what
was designated as honest business.
Tonight that section of the opinion
calling for the use of the "rule of
reason' in applying the law is re
garded in many quarters as an an
swer to the prayers of the "business
world."
The opinion of the court Was an-

i would be handed down immediately
after the decision in the Standard Oil ,i
ease. This was not done, however,
but the decision is expected on May -29,
the last decision day of the court
until next October.
The opinion of the court today was
construed to mean that the tobacco
cane, like every ober ease in which '
restraints of trade are alleged, must .
be subjected to the new test of rea
sonableness of the. restraint, as laid
down in the Standard Oil decision.
