(liy CLYDE H. TAVEXXEU.) Washington, D. C, Jan. 2S One of the first things ; the new demo cratic house will consider will be the advisability of placing beef on the free list. If beef does not go on the free list, the tariff on this commod ity will at least be greatly reduced. The following facts make such ac tion imperative: 1. The packing business in the United States is controlled largely by a trust. . . 2. The firms in the trust, as well as such alleged independent con cerns as Schwartzcuild & Sulzberger, have been making profits of from 20 to 45 per cent on their preferred stock tor tho last several years, while advancing prices every so Often hy agreement. " . The legal department of the republican' administration has pre tended tor the last ten years that it has been endeavoring to break up the beet trust, but has utterly failed. 4. The trust is paying the trans portation charges on American beef to London, and there selling it for two cents less a pound than in the I.'nii.ed States. . The beef trust dues not regu late its selling prices by buying prices, frequently raising the price ot beef to the consumer while pay ing less to the farmer. The department of justice has long taken the position that the beef trust is in existence in violation of the law, yet it has either not desired to dissolve the trust or has been incom pctuut to do it. This failure to get relief lor the consumers would indi cate the only way left lies in a reduc tion of tiie tariff on beef. Both Aus tralia and South America stand ready to give us cheaper beef if this coun try will only lower the tariff. Commenting on the possibility of securing the United States as a mar ket for Australian meats and dairy products, Arthur Kidman, Australia's export king, said: "I have spent six months in the States considering that possibility. The . only thing in the way is the tariff. If congress will let town the barriers a bit, so that we can come in, we can give beef, deliv ered by the carcass at the wharf for eix cents a pound, mutton for six, lamb for eight and butter for 23 to 24 cents, exclusive of duty. And better butter, by -the way, than you can get here by paying the very high est prices." : . '...'', Thousands of poor in the United States are impoverished by the high cost of living.' Many cannot afford to eat meat more than once or twice a jveek, l Yet here staoda far-off Aub-j tralia ready to furnish meat at six cents a pound. The present congress could remedy the situation in a day, but as it re fuses to do so, the job will be under taken and performed by the new democratic house whicH meets in De cember, The republican senate may try to prevent the lowering of the duly of meat, but such action would only increase the probability of a democratic victory in 1912. More Petty Graft. A feature of the report of the sec retary of the senate which has hith erto been overlooked reveals that more than 500 officeholders of the senate, from Clark Bennett down, re ceived a bonus of one month's extra pay, amounting in all to $64,364. 2S. The day on which this distribution occurred was August C, 1909. Then on June 2". 1910, according to the report, another month's pay was vot ed by the senate for its officers and employes, amounting this time to $72,090.94. Both of these prize packages were passed out within the fiscal yearT910, which covers the period between June 30, 1909, and July 1, 1910, although it is probable the latter bonus was intended for the year 1911. The senate employes do less work than most any other gov ernment employes, many of them be ing away from the capitol during the summer months when congress is not in session. But as these places are political stations, the senate is willing to be liberal. Government employes who really work, but who are not a part of the republican ma chine, do not participate in the easy money. ; The policy of the standpatters who are in charge of the people's money is to spend it principally among in dividuals and in districts where it will do the G. O. P. the most good. This policy is not especially conduc ive to economy. Taft Running Strong. Standpat republicans . take it for granted that President Taft will be re-nominated for the presidency in 1912. President Taft is running strong with special privilege "servers like. Aldri.cn, - Stephenson, Guggen heim, Cannon and Dalzell. He has also been endorsed by Senators War ner ,of Missouri, Hale of Maine, Bur kett of Nebraska, and Carter of Mon tana, all of whom have been defeated for re-election. Taft is being oppos ed for re-nomination by LaFollette of Wisconsin. Bristow of Kansas. Clapp of Minnesota, Bourne of Ore gon. Government Employes Vote. A Washington newspaper is tak ing a straw ballot among Uncle Sam's civil service employes to de termine what form of old age pen sions they desire. One plan provides for retirement on straight pensions, the latter to be provided wholly by the government. . Another plan contem plates retirement on annuities pro vided by compulsory savings by em ployes. ' ' . : b Teddy For Taft? Gllson Gardner, who accompanied RooBOvelt home from, Egypt and who is Jooked .upon In newspaper circles In Washington a ' Teing sort el 'semi-official press agent for the ex president, declares, positively ' that Roosevelt will never endorse Taft for a re-nominatiori. The reason he ad vances is that Taft carried out' Roose velt's policies only to extent of de positing them U the ditch. But it Is generally held that It doesn't make nny difference' whether Mr. Roesevelt is for taft; that President Taft -will drav down ' the '- re-nomination. whether his former friends lend a hand or not. v' .
