incompeteucy. Either horn OF the
dilemma is sufficient TO give the Re
publicans bad bali hour.
What Roosevelt thinks of the
situation Is not known, as he has
made no comment, publicly, at least;
but this much is clear, aud that is
that Garfield is being groomed for
the Presidential nomination ia 1903,
and the fact that Roosevelt continues
him in position and countenances
his Presidential aspirations is suf-
ficient proof OF the fact that Presi-
dent Roosevelt is satisfied that If
there was any Beef Trust" or
that the great packers were making
excessive profits, Mr.. Garfield
would have ascertained the same in
the course of his investigation, and
that, as he reported to the contrary,
that report is to be accepted by the
President and the people of the
country as final. 1t is up to the Re-
publicans TO either fish, cut bait, or
| get out OF the boat.
OF course, packers and cattlemen
know that instead of 80 cents the
profit is 50. Mr.. Garfield takes nc
account, apparently, of the by pro-
ducts-the glue from the hoOfs and
horns, the hair, the leather
from the hide, the beef tea extract,
the bore fertilizer, the profits on the
/ refrigerator cars, the railroad re.
bates, etc.

rooms were engaged by him until
March 5, and as he was TO be absent
on the 4th of March, he permitted a
personal friend to have the benefit
of the view from his hotel windows.
A source OF great amusement to
the Democrats at the capital has
been the dilemma in which the Re-
publicans have found themselves
over the report of Commissioner of
Corporations Garfield on the investi-
CATION into the Beef Trust.
Commissioner Garfield has prac-
tically exonerated the great pack
ers of all the charges made against
them. For instance, il shows that
instead of being a CLOSE corpora
ton AID three or four men meet
ing and fixing the prices of cattle
on the hoof and of the dressed pro-
duct, Swift d Co., doing a business
of $500, 600, 900 year, have over
5000 stockholders. This is the
largest packing house company in
the world, with $50, 900, 900 capital,
and doing business on a margin of
2 per cent. on its sales, or a profit of
- 900, 900 year on q capital of 49,
DOC, 900, q return of IL per cent. TO
its 5000 stockholders. AS Commits
sioner Garfield does not find that
any OF the packing companies have
been overcapitalized, but that all
have visible assets well worth their
capital stock, to say nothing of the
value of good will" and trade
marks, this return does not seem
to be sufficiently excessive - justify
the charge of eXtortion. AS Gar.
field finds it, the big packers, by
reason of the volume Of business,
take cattle from the producer and
give them to the consumer at a
profit of only 80 cents head. This
profit would not enable a small
butcher, killing a few beeves a
week, to i've, but when the business
runs up to over a million cattle
year it makes a respectable show
ing.
Where the Republicans are in a
quandry is il thiS-that Mr.. Gar
tela is the son Of the ma .tyred
President, a staunch Repu blican,
and gentleman of unquestioned in
tegrity. He is the bosom friend of
Roosevelt, and was selected for me
post ~ "Inquisitor Of Corporations"
because the President had sublime
confidence in his honesty and in
compatibility; consequently, wher
he reports, after an investigation in
which the resources OF the Govern
meut, including the e. S. Treasury.
we're placed at his disposal, that he
snds no trust" but that the big
packers are doing business on 4
margin which any merchant would
regard as extremely meagre, the
report must be accepted or rejected
by his party. If accepted, the So
called Beef Trust must be exoner
ated; if rejected, the Presidents
friend and trusted agent of the
Government must be charged with
