The Lament of Absalom and the Trust Issue
Delivered at St Louis September 15 1900 David Royer invokes Absalom to urge parents to scrutinize political and industrial conditions. He warns against private monopoly and trusts, cites Flint and various trusts, details consolidation gains, labor and farmer impacts, and appeals for state and federal action to protect independent enterprise and workers.
