To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Trust owners have their full share of these vices; — doubtless many trusts are inspired by greedy and monopolistic motives. Where such motives exist, true self- interest may be, for a time, at least, overlooked, and extor- tionate prices exacted. If so, there are sure to be, for a time, a lessening of the demand, a decrease in the output, a need for fewer workers, a lowering of wages, and wretchedness of the worst degree. If this policy is inaugurated there is no prospect, — at least as long as... it is continued, — of dis- placed labor obtaining new employment; for instead of the demand being increased, it will be lessened; instead of the manufacturer making more money and having more capital to invest in new enterprises, he will have less. This will be the result until low prices come as a relief, and the longer that high prices prevail the harder will it be — the less able financially will the manufacturer be — to reduce prices. It is not perfectly satisfactory to say that if we will wait long enough, another policy than high prices will suggest itself to trust owners as being not only to the interest of the public, but to the interest of the trusts themselves; or that, if the trust does not adopt this wiser policy, others will.
