Parker on trusts and public policy in 1896 ruling
The article recalls Judge Parker's 1896 ruling that a price fixing combination is against public policy regardless of reasonableness. It links this to later railway merger decisions and describes the broader Democratic stance on trusts and trade restraint as detrimental to the public. It touches Roosevelt era actions and debates over the Nicaragua route versus Panama for the canal, noting constitutional and legal controversy. It also highlights 1903-1904 wage reductions across industries and rising unemployment in Pennsylvania.
