wonder when the Federal Trads
Commission will issue a report con-
tanning the testimony OF the small
packer victims" OF the big Five" over
whom IL shed so many crocodile tears.
Such a report would show that before
Congressional Committees last winter
these oppressed competitors" pleaded
TO be saved from the salvation pre-
scribed for them by tho Commission.
They testified as to the fairness OF the
competition they met in the stock
yards and IN the markets In which
they sold their finished products and
were a unit in declaring that the leg
islative panaceas proposed would not
only ruin them, but would accomplish
nothing for the people.
The small packer, padding his own
canoe, and doing ft successfully, knew
then and knows now, that these social
istic nOstrums will not cure the
patient, which is the public, suffering
from the high cost OF living We are
in no combination 10 raise or extort
prices; we work so efficiently and
economically that we can exist on
profit of a small Traction OF one cent
per pound. Eliminate this and the cost
to the consumer would not be appre-
ciably affected. We are as much in
terested in solution Of this vital
problem as any one and will welcome
and aid the fullest investigation by a
competent and non
political body into this all important
matter. Unrest will not vanish until
This question is settled and settled

without delay and put the public schools Of city in
position to receive ITS benefits including those which
carried by the dupont School Fund enjoyment OF
which is conditioned upon acceptance Of the Code
Whether The Code will be accepted by the local board
Is open question There is opposition to acceptance
II is led by Dr. r. o. Cooper Of High School janitorial
and Prescription Hin fame. An opposition led by such
supplies in the minds OF many persons ample
why the Code should be accepted and put into effect.
Thus far the board. board. merely has marked

Addilcksiism is Not Dead
From the Wilmington sunday star)

u would not be worth while TO note
The death OF j. Edward Addicks were II
not the duty Of a public journal to
point the moral that such an end as
his SO powerfully illustrates. It is
worth while to recall his career only
as warning 70 those who may not
have been on the scene until the pO-
litlcal adyenturer had left Delaware
and do not know OF the nationwide
disgrace and disrepute he brought upon
this State. While 10 Is eniOined upon
Us 10 speak kindly OF the dead, there
can be no. other right estimate OF Ad-
dicks than that he was a knave, lack
ing in almost every quality that one
is taught TO respect in his fellows.
With a large amount Of cash he an
nOunced his determination TO buy a
seat in the United states senate. such
an evil ambition, so boldly and so de-
family announced naturally drew to
him a powerful following. Among
them were unquestionably a few re-
spectacle men who were willing to
stomach Addicks in the hope that they
might bring about Republican success.
which they conceived 10 be the wisest
for the country. But for the most part
the "Addcksites' as they were called,
were mere merconaries and buc-
cancers drawn TO his standard by greed,
and Indifferent TO the public welfare,
so long as they got the loot.
Addicks was dupe enough TO let the
horde Of vultures use his money freely
while 10 lasted As might have been
expected they deserted and betrayed him
when the time came when it seemed
that his evil object had been achieved,
and his ambition was about TO be real
lied
Addicks was no worse. perhaps, than
the political pirates who were attract
ed TO his money bags, some Of whom
are still living of the cash they illched
from him under the false pretensions
Of aiding him TO corrupt The electors
Of the State and then TO buy the Leg
islature.
However, we can leave those miser-
able recreants TO their own c0nsciences !
and try to point in Addicks death a |
moral, that is as much needed today |
here at this minule-as il has ever been !
i'm the past The death Of j. Edward |
Addicks does not mean that Addlchs-
ism is dead Quite the contrary, for 1t
is as much alive and as dangerous and
naunls itself as defantly and with as
damable and dictatorial impudence at
this moment as it did in the days when
