trash pile and be ready to put cut all
fires. 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.

ceedings in congress and the accounts of
conferences at the White House is familiar
with the fact that President Roosevelt
did not make public the report of the in
vestigating commission until he had ex
hausted all other means of obtaining the
desired legislation for a proper system of
meat inspection.
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. Spokane Review.
