The Sherman Anti-Trust Act prohibited combinations in restraint of trade. Some people think that it determined a difference between so called "good" trusts and "bad" trusts, but never distinguished between to two.
The Clayton Ant-Trust Act added to the Sherman Anti-Trust Act. It added to the list of unacceptable business practices such as, price discrimination and interlocking of directorates. It also tried to get agricultural and labor organizations out of the government's reach. But most people liked that it allowed strikes and peaceful picketing.
