It should not be forgotten that Judge Morrow ha9 smashed three trusts within the last few weeks and is ready to dissect more of them if they are brought before him. By a simple stroke of hi9 pen he dis-solv- ed the Washington Red Cedar Shingle trust, and afterwards scattered the integral parts of the Tile and Mantel trust. Ills last effort was to issue an order that the Salt trust may sell salt, but not in excess of the reasonable market prices that would exist were it not for the unlawful agreement, contracts, combination, trust monopoly and conspiracy set out and mentioned in the petition and complaint of the United States.

But the end has come, and the poor man may now rejoice in the fact that the salt which he puts upon his cold potato is not controlled by a trust. He is rocked in a trust cradle and buried in a trust coffin, but the salt he earns will come to him from the open market.

David E. Skinner had owned a salt plant in Michigan and sold it to the National Salt company. The National Salt com. pany was the eastern division of the salt trust, and it is now in the hands of a receiver. David E. Skinner got the notion that he ought to organize the various salt companies of the west into a trust, which he did, and the Federal Salt company was formed. An ironclad agreement wa9 signed with the National Salt company, wherein there was to be no interference. They parcelled out the United States like the garments of Joseph were divided. There were three salt companies not included in the trust. They were the New Liverpool Salt company, the Carmen Island Salt company and the Inland Crystal Salt company of Salt Lake.
