Republican duplicity on trusts sparks cross-party blame
A Corydon Republic newspaper excerpt attacks Republicans for inaction against trusts in the Fifty-sixth Congress. It cites votes on amendments to regulate monopolies, contrasts with Democrat support for the Sherman Anti-Trust update, condemns Republicans for opposing Roosevelt’s publicity plan, and notes a political shift around tariff and steel trust measures. It ends by urging readers to consider local ads and a medicine product promotion.
