. Would Aid Stockmen,
Nothing, would be more for the bene
fit of . these western cattle, sheep and
hog raisers than to pasa the Beverldge
amendment, say those who have made a
study of tha situation. ' Certainly the
manipulators of the market, through
the means employed by the trust, have
not laid awake nlghta to worry lest the
producers of food animals might fall to
receive their just share in the value of
the snlmal produced. .
Startling figures are being published
to show that tha trust has finally per
fected tha most remarkable machine, for
the manipulation of market prices ever
known sines the nation began. The
stock operations of Well street and the
schemee of members of the board Of
trade In Chicago, where the wheat gam
bling la carried on. are puerile In com-
parison.
Dominates Markets.
' Experts declare that the trust ab
solutely dominates the hog market,
systematically Inducing the shipment of
large numbers of hogs to Chicago upon
a. given day only to depress the price
so aa to yield the largeat possible profit
and leave tha owners just enough money
to get home, often not even doing that,
but .compelling the grower to. borrow
money for his home-going fare.
. Less extreme yet serious enough is
the predicament In which tha sheep and
cattle raisers find themselves when they
attempt to go against tha packing-houae
trust's finely adjusted market machine.
A retail dealer hers told tha writer
that he la now paying SS l-S per cent
more for all klnda ' of meata than ha
paid SO daya .ago. and to days ago the
prices were almost prohibitive; that
meat has become a luxury here In tha
east and that he looked upon those cus
tomers who bought it- regularly aa be
longing to the highly prosperous class.
Retail prices are ahown to have been
rapidly raised during the past few yeara
until every kind- of meat sells for at
leaat 100. .per cent advance over prices
charged at a former time when the
country waa prosperous and the meat
packing Induatry reveled In , dividend
