orders were Rent elsewhere because buyers OF
pork from other places were afraid of being
imposed upon by inferior brauds. It is not
necessary now to inquire how much reason e1-
listed for the determinations made. But it i
certain that any more Of such trouble vii
good men should Join in the effort 10 render it
impossible in the future. OF course any man
osn oas 'ps psoperis sD' in rbsssver 1s up shsps pc
he .pleases, but no man has the
right 10 cheat in doing SO, by trying to pass Of
prevent this that eone rule is wanted which
shall define what is meant By the term bar
rel Of pork" when not qualified by other I'm
guage, Just as we understand tie term i,00O
Of wheat to mean SO many bushels Of Ger
tain quality, known IS No. spring, md which
best packers say that the rule proposed is IN
Objectionable; that pork, properly put up, will
always weigh out to tie figure required in the
rule. They ought to know. They certainly
viii have to bear the greatest responsibility il
the rule proves to be too exacting. What is
wanted is set Of rules which will be stan
dard for mesB pork, and other products, which
can be worked up to alike by city and country,
and VIII place the products packed at other
points on such an equality as that they can be
brought here and sold, Chicago ought to be 8
market for the great Northwest; not alone for
her own manufactures, and she wants no pro-
tectlve tariff in the shape Of Soc per brl on to
keep ont country pork. Ths standard adopted
should be such one as will give confidence to
Eastern buyers; those gentlemen want to
know what they are bidding for, when they
send an order BY telegraph, and whether the
property they buy can be sold again IN case
they want to dispose Of it.: We are assured
fhaf fho Orapnaa5 r11taa txit1 +,aat &1,ia want
and they should, therefore, be adopted. At
least, the provision dealers and packers nre
tho men who ought to know what they want IN
the trade, and there should be no outside in
reference in Tie matter.
