at tho expense of the states. Tho
passage of the meat-inspection law
in the last session was an illustration
of this. It was shown that the great
packing houses In tho middle West
were sending nil over the country
filthy, unwholesome and adulterat
ed food products. Though it was pos
sible for each s’ate to protect its cit
izens against these products,
President applied to Congress for a
law prohibiting the interstate trans
portation of meat products without a
certificate of Federal Inspection. The
law was passed conferring on the ex
ecutive .authority to make regulations.
Its effect is to give to the big packer
the benefit of a government guaran
tee and to prohibit a railroad from
carrying across a state line the meat
killed by a farmer on his farm. In
stead of curtailing the power of the
big corporations It gives them a
more complete monopoly under tho
Ishiold of the Federal government.
