"Surely the president has not under

ness durinpr the last ten years," said
Mr. Thompson. "So Car as 1 am aware
the purpose of the present proceeding
is the most remarknble In the history
of the country. Never before, so far
as T can remember, has the government
of the United States departed so wide
ly and so radically from the functions
laid down for it as to say that the
seller of a commodity or a service,
•thou shalt not sell thy poods or thy
service at any price but one that
pleases me.'
•■lt seem* that President Taft and
Senator LaFollette have been in a
race as to which would get to the rail
roads first and that the president has
beaten him to it. Tt was the most
startling Innovation on r< rd and un
just and unwise."
