manufacture of oleomargarine
in this country is about q, OOO,-
600 lbs. in a year, worth about

cattle slaughtered is about
5, 900, 600. Thus if all the fat
necessary to make the oleo oil

away it would entail loss of
only 45c per head. But we ex-
port about 15o, 100000 lbs. of
oleo oil yearly and when it is

oleomargarine industry, but
merely reduce it to such as could

The legal aspect of the propos-
ed legislation may fairly be view
ed from a broader ground than
that from which Judge Springer
circumscribes the powers Of Con-
gress. 1t is accepted that the
freedom of commerce between
the states does not extend to
deleterious and harmful articles;
nor is there any reason why it
should be held to extend to ar
ticles that are fraudulent, and
whose sale is increased by such
fraudulency, though not proven
to be deleterious. The state has
as much right to protect
them from other frauds and
physical injury. The Grout bill
proposes no right for a state
that has not been already up
held by the Supreme Court.
Judge Springer view that Con-
gross cannot levy taxes for
general welfare" at the discre-
ton of the law making power,
though he claims it to be uni
versally conceded, is without
constitutional authority. 1t

FALLA010Us OBJECTIONS.

urged by the opponents of the
measure before the Senate COM
mittee on agriculture were
all set forth in a long address by
Hon. William M. Springer who
appeared before the committee
on January in behalf of the
National Live Stock Association.
Mr.. Springer submitted a memo
rial adopted by the Live Stock
Association from which, and
from his later presentation of
his case, we take the following as
being the chief arguments of the
oleomargarine interests:
First, that the legislation pro-
posed in the circuit bill is class
legislation, calculated to build
up one industry at the expense
of another.
Second, that it would deny to
the working men a wholesome
and cheap article of food.
Third, that it would compel
slaughterers to use for tallow a
fat that is now used for the
manufacture Of oleomargarine
and deperciate the value of beef
cattle So and 81 per head.
Fourth, that Congress has no
power to levy taxes for general
welfare" other than as such well
fare is definitely stipulated in the
constitution.
1t is worth while to examine
the basis of these objections.
First, as to the claim that the
circuit bill seeks to build up one
industry at the expense of an
other. let us look at the present
commercial position of butter
and oleomargarine. Butter has
been made and used for centur-
les; it's production has become a
principal industry in all agricul-
tural communities. 1t has a
distinctive color and appearance
NATURALLY irregular from sea-
son to season but artifcially
made uniform long before oleo-
margarine was invented. And
before oleomargarine was in
vented buttermaking was an
established industry of prime
Importance among all agricul-
tural pursuits. Or ;
1t is unquestionable that the
oleomargarine industry has
grown more rapidly by reason
of it's imitation of butter in ap-
pearance than it would had it
been offered to consumers on it's
lown merits. 1t is a certain fact
to those familiar with the pro-
duce markets that practically all
the oleomargarine sold to the
actual eaters of it, is sold as and
for butter and that the decep-
tion is possible because of the
imitation of butter. Under pres
ent circumstances, therefore, it
is evident that the oleomarga-
rine industry has been built up
at the expense of the butter in
dustry; the Grout bill seeks to
restrict this iniustice-not to
build up the butter industry at
the expense of any just right OF
the oleo manufacturer.
AS to the claim that a high
tax on colored oleomargarine
would deny to workinghen a
cheap and wholesome article OF
food it is evident that the effect
would be exactly contrary. So
long as oleomagarine can be
fraudulently sold for butter the
retailer is able to obtain the
price of competing grades ol
butter for it. The profit on the
article between manufacturer
and retailer is vastly greater thar
on butter for that reason. Be
sides being deceived as to the ar
ticle itself the buyer is compelled
to pay a relatively exhorbitan1
price in relation to the cost O
