RELIEF from suspicion comes
at last foi the over-taxed beet
trust. One ID. M. Perry has
headed a private self constituted
committee of investigation and
they report that the slaughter
houses of the city of Chicago are
models of excellence, clean, well
kept and sanitary in every respect
They are, according to this report
particularly admirable in the mat
ter of the treatment of their en-
ployes, and all that is needed to
make a little Eden of the beet
trusts workshops is to be let
alone by the curious public
Some way we seem to remember
the head of this committee. ID.
M. Parry, not long since at the
head of the Citizens Alliance,
an industrial he harlot, a scab-
herder, the enemy of all those
who toll, the steady apologist tor
all those who exploit the people,
Verify, the beef trust should be
proud of its spokesman. HIS
name attached to any report is a
guarantee of its falsity.

THE Booster wonders if Bryan
is the greatest man the democrats
have. 1t is a pleasure to us to
be able to say that the endorse
ment he is now receiving indicates
that he is, and that his greatness
is being appreciated. The demo-
Gratis are quite tenacious of their
ideas. Once get good idea into
a democrats head and he is never
satisfied till he sees it tried. In
1896 we got the Bryan idea in
our heads and we are not going
to be satisfied till we try him at
being President. We hope he
will suit the republicans as well
as their present executive. Roose-
welt is suiting us, and we are
pretty sure that he will.

THE PRESIDENTS HANDICAP.


President Roosevelt has been en-
thusiastic in his attempts to Sc
cure reforms along the lines OF
railroad and trust regulation and
that at present he is doing all he
can to bring the packing house
criminals to justice. But in the
first mentioned laudable effort he
has been beaten by the corpora
ton ruled senate. In the last
he will have immense trouble
with Speaker Canon in the house.
The NEWSPAPERS has no sym
pathy with those who point to
the Presidents failures as weak
ness on his part. The reasons
why he has failed and why he is
likely to fail are selfevident and
in no case his own fault, unless
he is credited with the fault of
electing republicans.
His real support is coming
from the democratic representa-
tives and senators and this is to
their credit. Ordinarily it has
been a virtue to oppose the ad-
ministration where the same was
Of opposite politics, but this has
been reversed in the past two
years.
1t seems really pitiful that the
administration is to be defeated
in its effort to probe and cleanse
the packing industry of this
country, but to the student of
politics it is clear that defeat now
stares the President in the face.
The Gar of the house is in posi-
ton to render ineffective any
steps for reform legislation, and
has evidently been retained for
that purpose.
But one thing remains clear,
the President has started some
thing The end is not in the ac-
ton taken now. The railroad
regulation bill is but the start of
what will in the future be genuine
governmen, control if it does not
become government ownership.
Every passing day will see re-
newed agitation for more of the
elixir of reform and eventually
we shall obain actual relief.
And in the matter of the pack
ing house scandals we may loo
for publication from the next
administration if Mr.. Canon shall
be successful in putting off action
at this time.
1t is a matter .or sincere con-
graduation that the next Presi-
dent will have to be man along
the lines OF Bryan or Roosevelt.
The people have got used to a
live virile executive and no jelly
fish or stuffed prophet can secure
the votes to place him in the
Presidents chair in 1908.
The next President will not be
handicapped as is Roosevelt.
The same sentiment that will
elect an executive will materially
change the complexion of both
the house and senate. There is
every reason to feel that things
politically are on the mend and
that conditions will be better
instead of worse with every pass.

And it is high time that this
prove true.

Cellar Vegetables.

Would you enjoy dish Of asparagus or

put them in boxes where they may be

December and January In cold-frames (us-

under the greenhouse benches. or in

roots get one good frost before forcing is

three or four years old.

There are more ducks in China than in

white with these birds, and day and night
the country resounds with their metallic
and scornful voices.
Children herd ducks on every road. on
every pond, on every farm. on every lake,
on every river. There is no back yard
without it's duck house. There is no boat.

Even In the cities OF China ducks abound
They dodge between the coolies legs. They

Their indignant quack will unseldom

All over thesland there are great duck
Matching establishments, many OF them
of q capacity huge enough to produce so 1000
young ducks every year.
The Chinese duck Is extremely tender and
deficate-the best tame duck for eating
In the world. Duck among the Chinese is
