The Beef investigation.

The country today, as the result of this
inquiry the government has instituted,
knows more about the dressed beef and the
canned beef industries than ever 1t knew
before A great deal of information about
the methods of both the packers and the
Gamers has been obtained, and the cir
cumstances have been such as to insure
wide attention to the details. The subject
is one of very general interest. Beef, in
one form or another, is consumed in large
quantities, and sentiment has been affected
in very many quarters by the DEVELOPMENTS
OF this official investigation.
The interest in the matter extends indeed
beyond the confines of the United States
American beef is shipped abroad, and wher-
ever market has been established for il
there, too, close attention has been paid to
the progress of the inquiry. Naturally
enough the foreigner has felt disturbed at
the questioning of the American product
right at home, and by the government it
self. as the result of its own dealings with
the packers and Gamers.
The developments have been far from
edlfying- They have shown several things,
but in particular this one thing, that in
specuons al such establishments have been
very far from being what they should have
the carcasses of those rejected have not
been properly guarded to prevent their
being sold for food, and in the canning
establishments meats have been used from
which all the juice had been extracted
IhlS is in every way a serious matter and
one to which the beef dealers will be Obliged
TO give attention Their trade will, in the
nature OF things. pay a heavy penalty un-
less they are at pains TO convince the pub
lie that all such practices have ceased. The
public will want TO know. and will have a
right to know. that so important an article
Of food has been well selected and properly
prepared, and that no risk to health is run
in using it.
But meanwhile the government has n
case clearly made out, so far as the aeon
sation goes that rotten beef was supplied
TO the soldiers. and it should be pressed
with Vigor all along the line until those
who are guilty of what is nothing less Than
crime have been exposed and brought TO
justice.

of the American territory, for either per-
manent ownership future settlement
upon another basis. The return to Spain
was obviously Improper In view of Spain 8
atrocious misgoyernment in the past. The
humane motives which actuated the nation
in Intervention for Cuba's freedom were
potent to prevent such injustice toward the
Filipinos. To yield them to immediate self
government was merely to invite chaos in
the islands. with tribal warfare, savage
atrocities, retrogression and ultimately the
absorption of the group by some European
power, after, perhaps, a continental strug-
gle.
Wisely. therefore, it was determined that
for the present the islands should be taken
under American control. Notice was i'm
mediately served upon the natives that
while the government should be vested in
the United States they should be given
control over their local affairs and permit
ted TO share materially in the general con-
duct of insular administration. They were
assured OF restoration of property taken
from them by Spain and invited to far
larger participation in their own govern
ment than had ever before been offered to
them. For his own purposes and without
warrant In fact, Aguinaldo, one of their
leaders, who had previously accepted a
bribe from Spain TO withdraw to the main-
land. assumed without warrant to speak
for the people of the entire archipelago and
organized so-called government among
the natives, even before the American
authority was established at Manila, before
the peace treaty was framed, before the
status of Spain in the archipelago was set
tied.
This gathering was summoned to disperse
and refused. When peace was established
between Spain and the United States and
the American occupation became a fact
Aguinaldo took the field with considerable
army and began to assume semi-offensive
attitude toward the United States, ignoring
the proclamations of the President, treating
as invaders the men who had crushed the
Spanish power in the island for the good
of the natives, and began to destroy life.
This assemblage then became, in the eyes
of the United States authorities, riotous
gathering, as subservient to discipline as
any mob which might gather in the streets
of Washington for disorderly purposes. 1t
became necessary to police the Island of
Luzon and the campaign which is now de-
yelopng embodies that performance. 1t is
progressing speedily and satisfactorily.
There is no particular glory in discip-
lining these people. There is no great salts
faction to be derived from Furnishing
rebellious child But it is for the child's
good. 1t is unquestionably for the good
of the Filipinos and for the credit of the
United States as a peace-loving, orderly
nation, to administer a thrashing to Agui-
naldo. This must be done through his fol-
lowers first in order to gain access to him.
And so when the reports of fighting come
from Manila and the death roll swells the
feeling here at home should be one of
regret that such things must be done and
qualification that they are being done with
humane promptness and thoroughness.

The United states Before All.

Americans of Chicago In mass meeting last
night, while based upon miscOnception.
recite some things that admit of dis
pute It is a fact that men of German
birth are among the very best and most
useful of the citizens of the United States.
They are law-abiding. patriotic, and in
every way progressive. 1t is likewise true
that they have demonstrated their patriot
ism in war as well as in peace. That they
love the land of their adoption appears in
every line of their record since they crossed
the ocean.
But why this alarm and protest about
formal alliance between the United States
and England? No such thing is on the
cards, nor likely to be. England does not
desire it, nor does the United States.
Abundant good feeling-greater than ever
before known-exists between the two
countries. and with every cause, but no
formal pledge exists. or is contemplated,
whereby the army and the navy of either
country are to be placed at the command
of the other in case OF trouble. The United
States will continue to hoe its own row and
in It's own way. soliciting the friendship of
all nations. but prepared to assert itself
against unfriendly demonstrations by any
nation.
Another objection to this Chicago deliy-
erance is the assumption that the United
States is the dupe, and may become the
tool. of England This same tone was held
by Senator Bacon of Georgia in an address
delivered on st. Patrick's day before an
Irish-American society at Savannah. The
suggestion is quite as offensive as It is
authorized. The people of the United are
fully capable Of taking care of themselves,
and do not need admonishings on the sub
ject of self-respect. They are not the dupes
of anybody. They have a fair comprehen-
sion of their own interests, and sufficient
resolution to assert and protect them.
But, has been so often asked, Why
German-Americans? Why Irish Americans?
Why French-Americans Why a hyphen-
ated citizenship of any kind? Why not
simply Americans all, bearing undivided al
legtance to the government and considering
only the best interests of the government? .,

Gen. Eagan should BE auertion.a

Former Commissary General Eagan should
by all means be called to the stand by the
beef court of inquiry and questioned closely
as to his purposes in writing the contract
with the beef packers and Gamers The
testimony taken yesterday removes all
question as to the necessity of this course.
Beef Contractor Swift's Interpretation of
the bargain does not comport with that
which General Eagan gave when he was on
the stand before the war investigating COM
mission Yet this is a very important point.
1t is somewhat remarkable that SO vital a
matter as the period during which the sup
ply company was to be responsible for the
quality of the beef should have been left
to mere verbal understanding. II this was
the case there was evidently the most
faulty administration.
1t is, OF course, to be understood at all
points in the case that the beef men will
give the most favorable coloring to their
evidence in their own behalf. They will
seek to throw upon the representatives OF
the government all responsibility which can
in any manner be shifted to them, accept
ing a minimum for themselves. They al
ready have been overburdened with ac-
eountability for bad meats. They have been
shown to have furnished canned meat to
the army which was unspeakably unit.
