Garfield Loses Prestige.

The lucky star which seemed to shine so
brightly for James r. Garfield, wpo has
recently obtained some notoriety in his al
legged attempts to probe the beef trust,
seems to have lost some o. it's brilliancy.
1t Is reported that Mr.. Roosevelt no long
er believes that Mr.. Garfield is the
brainiest young man about Washington.
The beef trust report, 1t is said, has been
the principal cause of Mr. Garfield's loss
OF power. When the long discussed re-
port of his findings about the beef trust
was published 1t was a great disappoint-
ment to the President, who had been led
to believe that the report would be a
document of some real value and tell
few things that would deroralize the
beef trust, but it was after all nothing but
a discussion of the economic phases of
the question, and its conclusion was that
after all the beef trust was not a gold
mine, and its profits were very little. Pos
sbly some of the facts that may be of as
sstance in a criminal prosecution of the
trust men may have been withheld, but
even If this be true he President did
not consider his work satisfactory, and
Mr.. Garfeld's visit to the White House
are not as numerous or as intimate as
they once were.

Auditorium Proposed.

Steps which may result in the erection
in Washington of large auditorium for
conventions, inaugural balls and other
large gatherings were taken recently at
a joint meeting of persons appointed by
the inaugural committee, the Board of
Trade and the Business Mems association
Congress offered the District of Columbia
the structural steel and other essential
portions Of the government building at
the ST. Louis fair. II found available in
the construction of the proposed auditor
ium. The building is 1872 feet long and It's
feet wide, but the opinion of the commit
tee was that structure 500 feet long and
175 feet wide would be ample for all con-
tingencies. The pension building, where
the inaugural ball was held, is 400 feet
long. An estimate will be obtained OF the
cost of constructing a building 500 feet
long, especially with reference to deciding
the question of whether the steel in the
st. Louis building can be economically and
wisely used, and will report at future
meeting. The steel is valued at 100000,
and the cost of removing II to Washing
ton would be about 900.

ing on the campaign of 1905 Mr.. Cortel-
you's announcement that he will retire

interest eenters in the question as to who
VIII be his successor. Harry s. New was
undoubtedly Mr.. Roosevelt's choice for
the place, but he knew of the feeling of
enmity that exists between New and Vice
President Fairbanks and his desire to
avoid any complications will undoubtedly
be responsible for Mr.. News failure to Sc
cure the post. Fairbanks and New have
fought each other hard in Indiana poll
tics, and If Mr. New should by any
chance be named 1t would be at once
construed as an attempt to injure the
chances of Vice President Fairbanks, who
will, 1t is generally believed, be a candi-
date for the presidential nomination. If
Mr.. New Is not named, and there is little
probability that he will be, it will be ac-
cepted by some politicians that the adj
ministration fayors Mr.. Fairbanks as a
candidate. Other strong probabilities"
for the place are Frank o. Lowden of
Illinois and G. f. BROKER of Connecti-
cut. Lowden has been coming to the front
in national affairs very rapidly and he

ests that keep him in New York City most

"Lest We Forget"
American Grocer.

From the American Grocer.
There was a time when tallow candles
cost 10 cents each and gave less than one
twentieth of the Illumination for dollar
that gas gives.
There was a time, and very recently,
when there was no electric light turning
night into day.
There was a time when we were salts
fed to travel four miles an hour in an
omnibus or horse car without light or
heat, or transfers, and pay or 10 cents
for what we now get for cents with
light and heat, and with speed doubled.
There was a. time when we thought it
was a great thing to be able to telephone
to q friend for is cents, and yet We are
not satisfied, . forgetting that Cor
poration" means cooperation" and that
through 1t this progress has been made.
The socialist forgets that the waste of
public ownership and operation exceeds
corporate profit, and doesn't care whether
1t does or not so long as he gets some-
thing at somebody elses expense.

Situation Complicated.

The whole situation has been eompli-
Gated by the constant appearance of pres
idential booms, all of which more or less
affect the decision of the matter. Fair
banks, Foraker, Shaw and Root all of
them have decided booms and each of
them is being brought to bear on the
matter. Foraker is especially non-commit-
tai about his boomlet, but 1t is under
stood that it is being carefully nursed
in more. sections than Ohio. Root is gain
ing strength every day, and his friends
are sanguine. Mr.. Root has not permitted
himself to be drawn into any of the fac
