GOVERNMENT PREPARING TO
PROSECUTE BEEF TRUST
MAGNATE ON CRIMINAL
CHARGES.

CHICAGO. Jan. 24.-With the
eyes OF an aroused people upon
them, the great "barons' of the
meat trust" are being placed on
the defensive today by the open
ing of the second government at
tack upon the alleged monopoly.
Evidence believed to warrant
criminal procedure against the
trust is ready to be laid before
the federal grand jury here at it's
meeting this afternoon.
Thirty subpoenaes for witnesses
to appear before the inquisitors are
in the hands of federal deputy
sheriffs who are serving the pa
pers today. United States Dis
trict Attorney Sims, leading the
governments attack, will begin
his arraignment of the packers and
his chief assistant, James Wilker-
son, will conduct the examination
In the grand jury room.
The National Packing company
has been selected as the chief OBJ
ject of attack. A great number
of the witnesses summoned today
are officials and employees of that
corporation.
Sims is armed with data secured
by government agents who have
been working more or less secret
ly in furtherance of criminal pro-
cedure against the men suspected
of being responsible for the pres
ent high prices of meats through
illegal combinations in restraint
of trade.

NOISE THAT HURTS

In last week S issue of the Ledger
it was stated that in August primary,
Judge Wood received &C votes to 80 for
Mr. Role in the home precinct of Mr.
Bole in Jackson. This was an error
for the vote was Wood "a and Bole SO.
No attention would have been paid to
this error had it not been called to our
attention that certain friends of Mr.
Bole have claimed that in the election
in Contra Costa, the only place that
Judge Wood carried was his home town
of Alamo, by vote of 80 to g.
This is not true, for Judge Wood car
ried the city of Richmond by 27O ma
jority. He also had majorites in
Siege, Oakley, Walnut Creek, Lafay
cite, Tajassaia, San Ramon and Her
cules. Furthermore it is well known
to the writer of the Dispatch that the
cause of Judge Woods defeat was a
bitter factional fight in the Republican
party for the nomination of Judge,
which lasted for four months, and that
the republican party in Contra Costa
has been for years torn asunder by
fractional fighting. Four years ago
sheriff Veale of Contra Costa county,
with a state wide reputation for his
efficiency as sheriff and with strong
democratic following in the county
was elected by the narrow margin of
1913 majority, running 1903 behind the
Roosevelt vote, because of the faction
al fighting. To try and make capital
over candidates pulitical defeat is an
absurdity, for every man in public life
has met it at some peIiod of his po
litical career. The Ledger would not
have called attention to the vote of Mr.
Bole in his home precinct had his
friends not endeavol ed to make capital
of Judge Woods defeat IN Contra
Costa. So we invited attention to vote
received by Judge Wood in his home
town and that received by Mr. Bole III
his home precinct.
