It is all right to burn powder, but it is not necessary to burn the town. One result of the beef trust exposures will be to encourage local butchers in the smaller towns to do their slaughter ing for themselves, as it was done in the days before the trust. And it will not be as easy to kill these smill competitors by rebates as it was before. Adulterated products, short weights. favored rates .in shipping and bribery, are the four corner stones on which the lead ing trusts erected their colossal fortunes. With his big stick the president has battered down this foundation and upon it no more towering trust fortunes will rise. Those already established are beginning to totter and their fall is imminent. Two rebaters are tagged for prison, the dirty meat packers have been penalized $85, 000 in fines and the pious oil gang is trembling before its judges. Now let this same president, one Theodore Roose velt, devise an affective scheme for forc ing the rich to pay their share of taxes and the average American will be blessed as Solomon prayed, with "neither poverty nor riches." BIG STICK WAS NECESSARY 'What has become of our boasted American fair play?" woefully wails J. Ogden Armour, head of one of the big packing houses in Chicago. Mr. Armour and his fellow packers are the last men in the world who ought to camplain about not receiving fair play. Though utterly regardless of what was due from them in their dealings with the public, they re ceived from the president every oppor tunity which could reasonably be asked or granted to do the right thing, and it was only when they showed an unyield ing determination to defy the rights of the people that the blow of exposure fell upon them. . It is the most absurd kind of folly for Mr. Armour or any one else to say that the president has unpatriotically or reck lessly sought to injure American industry. There is no one man in the nation who has more thoroughly at heart the welfare of all forms of industry in this country. It was because he realized that the good of the people and the commercial honor of the United States were being seriously thieatened by the methods in vogue at the packing houses that he de manded reforms.

By means of a powerful lobby the packers were bringing pressure to bear upon congress to defeat the inspection bill recommended by the president. In the face of an indisputable statement of facts by the commissioners, the packers persistently denied that the conditions mentioned had any existence. Yet the exposure was scarcely 24 hours old when they began an extensive cleaning up pro cess in their plants and inaugurated changes where they had previously de clared there was no necessity for a change. By their own actions they have virtually given the lie to their assertions. They have shown that only exposure could bring about a reform of abuses. They refused fair play to their consumers and now hypocritically cry that the presi dent is not giving them fair play. No more barefaced attempt to pose as mar tyrs was ever made. Their conduct called for a vigorous application of the 'big stick." and it was never wielded with better effect The packers them selves are primarily and entirely res ponsible for any discredit that has beer brought upon their products in foreign markets.
