was the pass amendment, for which a

THE President decided therefore. Il
make public the NeIll-Reynolds report
which has been presented to him III
writing The attitude of the House Com
d rnittee on Agrcul, Sre. which Is showing

Tho determination OF the President
70 withdraw objections to the pup,
location OF tho report was reached
to-day, after conference, with sew
eral members of Congress- who gave
him some interesting information re-
5garding the progress of the work of
preparing q substitute for the Beveridge
amendment. 1t is significant that 4
short time after the President had had
half-hour conference with Chairman
'Wndsworth, Of the House Committee OH
Agriculture, It was announced at the
White House that the Executive was
agreeable to the publication of the re-
port.
Mr.. Wadsworth Is. opposed to anything
like radical legislation affecting the pack
ers. The decision of the President to
send the report to the Congress and the
country Is regarded as fine stroke OF
policy to defeat the efforts OF friends OF
the trust. The prospects OF the passage
OF bill providing for effective inspcc-
ton OF meats offered In the domestic
markets arc as good as could be desired.
Prospects Good.
1t is almost certain that tho packers
will not be heard by the committed for
tho simple reason that they VIII not seek
q hearing.
They say they do not oppose the pro-
posed legislation, but are asking that the
cost OF inspection be borne by the gov
eminent otherwise they will simply make
the consumer pay the cost.
8 The best information obtainnble to-
night leads to the belief that the legM-
lation finally enacted will provide that
Z the inspection be charged to the packers.
This will cause the consumer to pay more
for his meat, In all probability. but If
1.-The government were to be saddlcd with
the cost the temptation to the packers
to seek to prevent a sufficient approprl-
alton to defray the cost OF inspection
would be too great to be resisted, and
their success would mean the defeat OF

.pEvofloN TO DEAD ISSUES.

"can a dead issue exert any infiu-
ence in a Presidential campaign? With
that inquiry prominent West Vir-
ginfa Democrat opens letter to The
Post with the apparent purpose of OBJ
tanning the opinion of this journal on
the availability of Mr.. Bryan for a
third race for the Presidential stakes,
.'The currency issue he submits, lis
dead beyond resurrection. That be-
ing the case, what matters 1t what
Mr.. Bryan has said on that subject
or how he has used his influence in
vain efforts to keep 16 to i aliyea"
But, concedlng the 16 to issue to
be dead in the sense that no party ad;
vocates or proposes to advocate it..
it is quite possible that It might have
something to do with the availability
of Col. Bryan. Capacity to profit by
the lessons OF experience is, In the
opinion of many intelligent voters, a
valuable item in the equipment of a
statesman, and quite Indispensable in
the outfit of President. There may
be a President. There may be Dem
ocrats in large numbers who will find
it impossible to forget that in 1900
Mr.. Bryan forced his party to go into
the campaign hopelessly handicapped
with the 1G to cadaver, and that in
1904 he used his influence so poten-
TALLY that 16 to still stands as the
latest authentic declaration Of Demo
cratic fiscal policy. AS an illustration
of the influence of Mr.. Bryan's deVo-
ton to his fetch, we notice that the
Boston Herald. which recently exhibit
ed an inclination to welcome him to
the Democratic candidacy, is steering
"a Midsummer's Eve" is to be pro-
and goes on to remark that Mr. Bry-
ans "happy retort" to Ambassador
Reid on the money question shows that
even his world tour has not instructed
him ON this subject. Mr.. Reid said
of him-aRd to him: 81 believe that
he is now as satisfied as am, though
by different process of reasoning.
that the country which we both love
and try to serve has not been ruined
by its gold" To this genial gibe Mr..
Bryan replied. when 1 see the pro
gress my country has made walking
on one leg wonder what it would
have done walking on two legs"
"one leg" is clearly intended to ap-
ply to the single standard. And there
upon the Chicago Chronicle, which
supported Bryan in 1900, remarks that
ito talk about two-legged value
standard of silver and gold is to talk
nonsense AS well talk of a three
legged standard of gold, silver and
copper. or a four.legged standard of
gold, silver, copper and lead"
While there is no probability and
even with Mr.. Bryan as the Democrat.
ic candidate, the battle of the stand
ards will be fought over again, it may
be his incapacity to distinguish
the dead from the living would be, as
heavy handicap in 1908 as it was in
