A Man's Job Before Him.
Gariield is earnest. The
President likes earnest persons.
Gartield is ambitious The
President likes ambitious per
sons. Garfield is conscientious ,
and the President lays much
stock by that. In short , Gar.
tjeld is a clean young man , with
a mind that grapples with great
problems , no matter what the
vandup of the encounter may be.
He came to Washington as
the [ 'resident's friend , and he
h.xs never let the Presidint get
away from that idea. He is
as regular at the White House
as a Secretary Lioeb. Any time
a great problem presents itself
to him , and he gets a tail-hold
on it , he rushes breathlessly up
to tell the President about it.
He darts in and out of
the President ' s private
oflice half a do/.en times a
day , or used to before he went
into the Cabinet. His om'ce as
Commissioner of Corporations
was on Fourteenth Street , only
a short distance from the White
Z-Iouse. Now he is up at Eighth
and F , and it is likely he will
not have time to do so much
Breathless rushing , unless he
gets a new supply of breath.
There may be a deep , dark
Presidential reason for his
transfer based on this ; but why
speculate on matters that con
cern us not ?
Combined with Garfield's
earnestness is a caution that he
is obliged to pay excess bag-
gagt on every time he takes up
? new line. He is so circum
spectly cautious that he puts a
tag on every thought he has ,
enters it on the card index and
then lays it away to try. He is
no adventurer into the fields of
nigh emprise. He is no pioneer
to blaze his way through pre
cedent out into thu open fields
of constructive originality.
What has happened is good
enough for him , and the idea

How J. R. Rose To The Cabinet.
Is it possible the President
of these United States , to
gether with a few outlying , but
expensive , possessions , has
sunk so low as to use the dim
inutive in spunking , even thus
casually , of the gallant young
man from Cleveland , Ohio , who
is striving so hard to keep us
on the track ? Is it possible he
does not take the Honorable
James Rudolph so seriously ts
the Honorable James Rudolph
takes himself ? If it is , what
mercy can any ot us expect ?
Where do the common , Or gar
den servants ot the people get
off ?
Still , there must be a good
deal in this young man , for he
has progressed rapidly under
the fostering care of the Presi.
dent. He came as Civil Ser
vice Commissioner. He was
made Chief of the Bureau of
Corporations when the Depart ,
ment of Commerce was organ
ised. There ho trailed the Beef
Trust to its lair , and there he
hounded the Standard Oil Com.
pany until it squealed for mercy
but could not refain , automatic
ally , from raising the price of
oil. There he tore through the
insurance companies , and there
he created 'that masterly com
pendium of laws relating to
corporations in all States and
all countries that so ponder ,
ously sets forth the statutes for
regulating trusts ( so called ) ,
but which universally fail to re
gulate.
Then , after they had pried
Ethan Allen Hitchcock out of
his place at the head of the
Interior Department , he went
to that mighty seat , to the head
of the department that , in
point of power and diversified
interests , is the greatest in the
Government , and there he is to
stay until President Roosevelt
retires. Saturday EveningPost
Packed and Cinched for a Hard
Trial.
He will be cautious , conserva
tive , honest , but he will always
have on display a head bowed
down with weight ot aresponsi-
bility that will put many bulges
on that pallid brow. It seems
a shame to take a tresh young
man , to tear him from the de
lights of Cleveland , Ohio , where
he was illuminating the law ,
and load him down like that.
They have done it , though
have packed him and cinched
the pack-ropes. He cannot
escape. He must save his portion
tion of the country.
And he knows it. He knows
it , brethren , and , knowing , tells
the gasping world. He has a
mission , and men with missions
must be serious.
There is no persiflage about a
task that compels a man to be a
pillar for the Nation. Cheerful ,
ness goes out the window when
such responsibility comes in the
door. Probably there are
greater things ahead of him ,
Still , it would be a real act of
friendship for somebody to send
him a motto for his private-
office wall-a motto reading :

Market Letter.
KnnsiiH City Stock Yards , April
15 , 1907. The cattle market
ended last week in fine condition ,
with a net gain of 10 to 25 cents
for the week , beef steers profiting
the most. The run for the week
was 41,000 head , several thousand
greater than during any recent
week , but in spite of this there
was not sufficient cattle received
to go around. Supply today is
11,000 head , market steady to
strong , in the face of a big run
and lower prices at Chicago.
Packers were especially active
today , as competion last week
from butchers in local towns with
in the radius of 150 miles of this
point was so keen last week that
local killers failed to fill all their
orders. No choice cattle have
been here for more than a week ,
top last week 85.'JO. and highest
price today S5.S5. Hulk of the
steers sell at $5.00 to SS.f.O , cows
$2.'JO to S-U.O , heifers $3.f.O . tote
to $5.25 , feeders $4. ( > 0 to $5.35.
Country grades arc at the extreme
high i.otch , and above any recent
year at this time. Receipts of
this class are moderate , ship
ments to the country last week
200 car loads , and the supply is
likely to run small for some time ,
and prices hold up somewhere
near the present level.
Hog run last week Ivas 58,000 ,
market fluctuating a good deal
but finally closing the week al
most steady with close of previ
ous week. Run today is S.OOO ,
market 5 to 7J4 lower , top$6.524
bulk of sales $6.45 to $ ( . .50.
Buyers arc more particular as to
quality than heretofore , and
weight does not always cut the
most figure , heavy hogs some
times selling near the top. Deal
ers look for the run to continue
around 60,000 per week for awhile
and prices to keep cloic to the
$0.50 mark. A year ago prices
were 5 to 10 cents below present
range.
Supply of sheep and lambs lait
week was 25,000 head , many
thousand short of actual requir-
ments of the trade. Packers arc
doing eu-rvthing they can tc
increase receipts here , their most
effective and convincing argu
ments baing the payment of re
cord prices for desirable stuff.
Top lambs brought $8.35 today
and bulk of lambs sold at $8.00 or
better , ewes sold atf > .00to$6.10 ,
no wethers or yearlings included
in the supply of 8,000 head.
Clipped lambs bringclose to$7.00 ,
The market looks 10 to 15 cents
above a week ago. Country
buyers paid $7.95 for lambs today
depending on the fleece for most
of the profit.
