The international race goes merrily
on. Warships are getting larger every
month. When England announced the
launching OF new model battleship.
America and Germany FASTENED to
initiate her Then Japan decided to
build her warships still lnrger, Ger
many raised the size and America felt
called upon to go them all one better.
Not TO be outdone in the race. England
has now decided to stretch her ships'
beams still farther and to leave all
rivals behind, When it comes to In
Greasins the number Of ships n similar
rivalry has been the order or the day..
After tho Japanese, the Germans and
the Americans had announced how
many shiH1hey intended to build In
1909, England, or course, had to lead
them all. 1t cost her some weeks OF
excitement, a general election ana u
warm campaign, hut the thing had to
pc done. Now that the Liberals are
again in power, they have decided to
build seven battleships. nine protected
cruisers, two unarmed cruisers. thirty
seven torpedo boats ana nine sub
marines. The whole Is To cost the
British people a trifle OF $4,000 900

THE MEAT INVESTIGATION.
The meat investigations is berinnini

i in fine shape. The retailers who APP
lspeared before the Federal Senate Com
mittee, without dissent blamed the
Wholesalers, and declared that they
Were not themselves responsible for the
bull movement In meat which has car
RED pork beyond the reach of ordinary
mortals and has placed beef among
the Injuries OF tho rich. We expected
the retailers to make some such
charge We should have been dlsap-
pointed had they not put the blame on
the other fellow. we expect, too. that
when the wholesalers come up for
their bearing they Will declare that the
packers are the robbers OF tho people.
1t would be most unnatural II they
did otherwise. Then. again, when the
rich pork kings of Chicago have their
inning, they will have that fine logic to
show that tho farmer is getting the
profit while their own concerns are on
the verge Of bankruptcy. The farmer
If he ever get hearing-will de-
clare the packer is the robber and so
the thing will begin all over again
AS a matter of fact, the chances are
that no ono agency engaged in the
sale of meat is wholly responsible for
the high price of meat All are re-
sponsible. Where the packer charges
the wholesaler more than formerly, I
tic wholesaler makes it up on the re-
taller and adds little extra profit I
for himself. The retailer has hisl
Whack at the consumer. charges the |
extra profits laid on the meat before |
l.. reaches him, and Of course raises
prices little on his own account
The result is that where the handlers
of the meat all make a not unrea-
sonable profit. tho consumer has to
pay n most unreasonable total profit. |
he tcars the burden of handling the |
meat lalf-a-dozen times and pays the
freight from Chicago to Richmond |
Just here is the greatest defect in
our present system OF exchange
defect that plays a larger part IN
tho cost OF living than
either the trusts. the new tariff OF
abomination or the low price Of gold.
Over. manipulation ana not over-pro-
duction OF gold or under productinn Of
food products is the real secret Of our
monetary ills.
BY having handful OF fingers in the
pic we have to pay high for what IS
left. The accumulated profit back to
the producer frequently amounts to
moro than the prime cost, and, OF
course. falls on the consumer. II we
can reduce the ponderous machinery
and the repeated sales by which food
stuffs are brought from tho grower to
the user. we can reduce prices.
All of this can be figured out. by
the way. without congressional in,
vestigation.
