We present results from the measurement of the inclusive jet
cross section for jet transverse energies from 40 to 465 GeV in the
pseudo-rapidity range 0.1 < |\eta| < 0.7. The results are based on 87 pb-1
of data collected by the CDF collaboration at the Fermilab Tevatron
Collider. The data are also consistent with QCD predictions given the
flexibility allowed from current knowledge of the proton parton
distributions. We develop a new procedure for ranking the agreement of the
parton distributions with data and find that the data are best described by
QCD predictions using the parton distribution functions which have a large
gluon contribution at high E(t) (CTEQ4HJ).
