"HoRsE" ON DAVENPORT.
Cartoonist's Judgment on Horseflesh
Is i'm Disrepute.

At stable in the American horse
exchange of New York, five horses
said to be Arabian stations, are hav-
ing the time of their lives, and Incl
dentally working up a board bill and
a lawsuit. The steeds were brought
over from Morocco; two of them are
believed to have been destined to
be presented to President Roosevelt.
Homer Davenport, the cartoonist
was in the deal. He ordered the i'm
porting, and now he wishes he had
confined his activities to drawing ele-
plants and donkeys and let the horse
business alone.
Having received some disquieting
reports about the social standing Of
his importations, Davenport took a
real horseman to the barn and asked
him to look them over. Are they
Arabians?" That is what he wanted
to know. "Arabians!" snorted the
horseman. "Arabians! they are
about as much Arabians as you are
These old crooks are from Tupelo
Miss, or maybe from Delphi, Ind. If
they ever came from Arabia, 1t was
on the drawback system. You've been
done. Why, the Japanese cavalry
wouldn't ride those horses at the Mi
kado's command. AS for giving them
to the president, you could be prose-
cuted under all the laws there are,
for doing it. If you have any one
that you want to get good and even
with, give him a flock of these speed
developers, but don't handicap the
administration with them"
Mr.. Davenport still has the horses,
and on his advice, the theories of
DR.. Osler are to betried If men
are useless after 60, horses which
are useless at the start cannot have
improved in middle age. All of which
goes to show that when monkeying
with foreign affairs, it is we'll to have

ACTUAL PROFITS OF THE BEEF TRUST

meat, We're selling on this market at
$i75 per hundred weight, which
would make their cost at the yard
on the hoof s57.23. Taking from this
the value of the offal. shown above
t. be $15.14, and the cost of the net
carcass to the packer is S42.09.
Now for this carcass, the same date
packers were receiving an average Of
cents per pound. This would give
for the 700 pounds of meat $3.50 for
the average. Killing the cost of which
approximately is so cents per head,
leaves $50 net for the carcass. De-
ducing from this S42.O9, the cost of
the live animal after allowing s15.14
the value of the offal, and there re-
mains a gross profit to the packer of
$9.91 per head.
But there are the general expenses
of the plant and extraordinary dis
bursements to be accounted for, and
for this, which is a very liberal esti-
mate. Still there remains $7.41 per
head net profit to the packers.
Applying the average profit of $7.41
on cattle, 20 cents on hogs, so cents
on sheep and so cents on calves, to
the total number of head killed in a
year by the Combine" packing houses
gives a total profit of $47721412.
Figuring upon the total capitalization
undoubtedly heavily watered, of
$11O,500,0O0, we have 4S per cent.

Not long ago Commissioner Gar
field of the department of commerce
and labor made a report ON the beef
trust which, as published showed that
the profits of that big combine OF
dealers in meat made a very small
profit on their purchases and sales.
1t is now asserted that the report
was only partial and that the full re-
port will make a different showing,
and it is particularly stated, that in
the trials of the beef trust, for which
hundreds of witnesses have been sum-
moned, a very different showing will
be made.
Meanwhile Cuthbert Powell, COM
mercal editor of the Kansas City
journal. has published a statement
showing the profits of the beef trust
i'm detail. His Investigations show
that the average net profit of the
packers instead of > per cent on the
price of the cattle is S7.41 per head,
or 10 per cent on the price of cattle,
and that this profit is turned over
every two to four weeks-12 to "a
times n year.
His details descriptive of the vari-
Gus parts of the "critter" which are
converted into money by the big
packers and mostly thrown away by
small butchers, are interesting. Here
are his carefully prepared figures:

The Crook County Cattle Mems as

Their purpose Of unifying the cat

letter addressed to each of the coun-

invitation extended them to join in
the movement. A date will be ap-
pointed for a meeting of the dele

ganizations, and at this meeting a
permanent schedule will be launched.
This meeting is scheduled for the
present summer, and will probably be
held in Prineville.

The Republican Anne Arundel Ex-
aminer And Democratic
Primaries.

Messrs Editors:
The Anne Arundel Examiner is evil
IDENTIFY in favor of the Hannah bili.
for in its discussion of the Democratic
primaries il takes its text from
highly scented rat and an oyster
One of the most delightful sensa-
tions TO Democrats is TO have WOOL
dyed Republican like the editor OF the
Examiner take one side or another OF
4 marty discussion. People can recog-
nize in the editors position that he
Is irving to take the walrus place ana
walk off with the oyster, but when
ole man intarferes between man ana
wife he is apt TO get both down on
him. which is the Examiner chance
now.
Every paper which has published
ludoe Jones verbal opinion has gar
bled il. He did not say that either OF
the primaries, that Of July % or
August IL were the legal primaries.
on the contrary he distinctly asserted
that the question of legality was q
matter entirely for future considera-
tion.
The editor of the Examiner. as a
LAWYER, knows that the Legislature IS
a creature of the organic law; that II
gives legality TO quasi Legislative
bodies, such as county commissioners,
school commissioners and supervisors
of elections. The county commits
sioners arrange their own sessions
and so do the supervisors. except as
TO days specially designated for APP
poinment of officers of registration
and election. A legislature is limited
to three months session, yet In the
last six ears we have had two extra
sessions for the purpose OF correcting
errors of omission or commission and
bills have been passed and repealed
during tire same session.
Does the editor of the Examiner
have the temerity to say that after
June 10 the supervisors were functus
officio? If so their acts of June ~
and 26 and of July Is were performed
| by a dead body. On the last three
DAYS acts of unquestioned fraud were
perpair lteC4 Gould the State Central
Committee permit these acts without
being considered particeps crlmlnis
and was it not their duty then under
the new organization to call legal
primary? / would like TO ask the Tx
| aminer how about the Republican prl.
maries. They have been called and
called off and called again.
1t is said the editor of the Exami
| ner wants as his oyster the position
as member of the House of Delegates.
| His wanting it is not singular. He
wanted to be Assistant United States
District Attorney. He wanted to be
States Attorney. He wanted to be
| United States Commissioner and he
wanted to be City Counsellor. We
| can see that he desires to create a
| wider breach among Democrats, but
| this he will not do, as we fear the
| Greeks ii. e. Republican editors and
office seekersl bearing gifts. Our
| friend of the Examiner wants the
| shells divided between the Democrats
and lie take the oyster Ii Republi-
cans can change the dates of their
primaries why cannot the Democrats
| do the same.

Celebrated His Birthday.

Rear Admiral Charles K. CLARK cell
ebrated his sixty second birthday yes
terday and the occasion marked his
retirement from the navy. In the cell
ebration of the event several hundred
persons gathered on Mount Mansfield,
the highest peak in the Green Noun
tains, at the preserve of the Mount
Mansfield Trout Club, and rendered
their congratulations.
The clubhouse was profusely deco
rated, the dining table being decorated
by a cluster of sixJy-two American
Beauty roses, the gift of Montpelier
friends. The dinner consisted chiefly
of trout caught in the pond owned by
the club. Col. o. ID. Clark, of Mont
pelier, presided and rendered to Adj
miral CLARK on behalf of the club q
sincere tribute of respect. Admiral
CLARK responded briefly. Amdiral
CLARK is q native of Bradford, and
for the last few years it has been the
custom of the Mount Mansfield Trout
Club to give a dinner to him, but the
affair of yesterday eclipsed all pre-
yiOus efforts.
