When Commissioner Garfield went
10 the Chicago packers and asked per-
mission to inspect their books, the con-
dition was made that no information
he might obtain therefrom would be
used in court proceedings against
them.
Mr. Garfield gave this pledge, it is
stated, and the packers allowed him
to study their business in all its de-
tails from the inside.
Now. it is announced, the results OF
his study have been turned over to the
government department of justice to
be employed in legal prosecution OF
the packers.
Commissioner Garfield would not
have ventured to give the pledge that
was demanded by the packers without
instructions from Washington. He
pledged, not his W word, but the
governments. 1t is not his good faith,
but the governments, that is in ques-
ton now.
The Journal has nc concern for the
packers, except as they are citizens OF
Chicago. If it can be proved that they
are guilty of engaging in a conspiracy
in restraint of trade, they ought to be
punished.
But their guilt, if they are guilty.
must be fairly proved. They must be
given a square deal.
Since the government has elevated
its vision to such q height as to over.
look the nest of defiant criminal trusts
in New Jersey, almost within the
shadow of the capitol dome, in order
to fasten itself a thousand miles away
upon Chicago, the government and the
President cannot be too careful to
avoid suspicion that they are more
anxious to prosecute western Offenders
than offenders in the east.
Some of the methods already en-
ployed in this case have not been par
ticularly distinguished for decency.
When the government breaks into a
mans house and steals his private pa
pers, when it drags the wives of pack
ing-house employees into court and
puts them under heavy bonds, 1t is
hardly digniied, not to say honorable,
nor even respectable.-From the Chi.

ODD PLEAS FOR DIVORCE.

A Cleveland man is suing his wife for
divorce because she threw a seashell at
him when he read aloud. Obviously she
was in the wrong. A seashell is not very
hard.
A Pennsylvania woman who is suing
for divorce finds no consolation in be-
ing the wife of a man who has broken all
records in one line, he having deserted
her 35 times in AZ months.
A Trenton IN. j. woman wants a de
vorce because her husband, whose name
is Finnegan. won't ask the legislature TO
change it. When a woman marries it is
time she ceased trying to change her
name.
A woman in Logansport is suing for
divorce, one of her complaints being that
her husband is too loving and hugs her
with too great constancy and exuber-
ance. She should have a tackling dunn
my rugged up and make her spouse try
out his energy omit before being admit

\ MENACE TO ALL INTERESTS

The turmoil growing out of the
Investigations, charges and counter
charges among officials of the Equi-
table Life Assurance Society are of
greatest interest throughout the
country, not only among policy
holders of that company but those
of other insurance companies as
well. 1t cannot be denied that
public confidence has been shaken
to a greater or less degree of late.
The fabulous millions "mvested"
by the insurance companies belong
to thepolicyholders. Is this money
safely invested, or is it being used
for speculation by favored officials
of the insurance companies?
The charges and the counter
charges have now gone so far that
public interest and confidence in
life insurance methods demand
that a thorough investigation of
the affairs of the Equitable shall
not be smoothed over by a too har-
monious settlement of the differ
ences existing between Mr.. Hyde
and Mr.. Alexander.
There are broader issues at stake.
Mr.. Alexander has said that Vice
President Hyde is a needless and
incompetent young man, more Civ
en- to his social success than to an
efficient administration of the bust
ness of the company. Mr.. Hyde
has retorted that President Alex
ander is selfish and that be has
been guilty of acts which prove
him dislOyal to the interests of the
policyhOlders of the Equitable.
Again, the rather sweeping allie
cation has been made that the
money paid in to the treasury of
the Equitable society has been di
verted in manner calculated to
advance the personal interests of
the directors; that the funds of the
company have been reinvested in
corporations which are owned and
controlled by directors in the
Equitable.
False or true, we'll founded or i'll
founded, these insinuations, these
charges and counter charges should
be determined to the satisfaction of
the public.
Nothing but the fullest and freest
investigation of the business meth
DDS of the company will restore the
perfect confidence and trust of the
municipalities which should be
the rock foundation of any insur-
ance company holding the saved
earnings of 100000 policyholders.
The matter is one in which not
only the Equitable society is con
cerned.
The alleged disclosures in con
|
nection with the administration of
the company's finances have served
to shake public confidence in the
stability and security Of life insur-
ance methods. Public concern is
manifested. 1T would be the gray
est of errors in these circumstances
if the directors of the Equitable
should imagine that thepeOple who
carry insurance will be satisfied
with the announcement that Mr..
Alexander and Mr.. Hyde are now
recOnciled.
1t is to be sincerely hoped that
the harmony reported will not pre-
vent the committee of seven APP
pointed by the Equitable directors
from doing their full duty in in
vestigating the truth or falsity of
the serious charges which have
