What the Beef Trust Has Done said What It Is Doing to Injure the Standard of U. S. Government .Inspection. CHAPTER IL This Loveberry Ordinance was writ ten up by the unscrupulous agent un der the direct command ot the two packing concerns who had U. S. Gov ernment inspection of meats. The agent acknowledged It. the packers acknowledged it. The ordinance pro vided that the output of these two packing concerns including the meats stamped by the fishermen should be exempted of and above suspicion. But , the Inspector was to keep a strict supervision over all other slaughter ing in the city, and any farmer who shipped a veal, a porker, or a beef to the city must send it to one of tiie packers' plants to be Inspected, and where the packers could deal It out to one of their- pet markets. The un scrupulous agent said he knew he could control the office of City In spector, and shades of David Harum! he wanted a horse and buggy to help him. There was to be no recourse from his position and he could "throw down" the products of the small in dependent packers and make them lose heavily. People who took notice a year ago saw a 6ight that you won't see today It was the spectacle of a paid U. S. Government meat agent running hither and yon before the City Council, the Health Board, the Mayor any phy sician who would listen to him and pleading for this ordinance whicn he himself had written, written for the benefit of these two packing plants. The opposition party was established and a fund put "up to fight the ordi nance. Farmers. county butchers, country merchants. stockmen. Port land's commission men and Independent butchers all joined- Suit was brought under the name of the Frank L. Smith Meat Company to annul the ordinance.
