Where Persons Are Everything in Washington Society

Commoner letter urges Roosevelt to enforce Sherman act
A Commoner piece urges President Roosevelt to press criminal action against beef trust members under the Sherman antitrust law. It argues the $5,000 fine and one-year term are too lenient, compares penalties to revenue violations, and calls for criminal punishment to deter monopolies. The letter warns against wealth, influence, and politics shielding violators and links trust behavior to broader imperial and Republican criticisms.
