ENGLAND's MEAT SUPPLY.


Resolution of the Commons.
LONDON, July 10.-Henry Chaplin {Cou-
servative), member for middle Lincolnshire
moved that in view of the prevalence of the
foot and mouth disease, the importation of
live cattle should not, in the future be per-
mitted from countries whose preventive
laws, or the sanitary condition of whose cat
tie did not afford reasonable security against
the extension of the disease. He agreed that
the disease did not prevail in Scandinavia
and British North America, and that these
countries afford a large supply. The motion,
he said, would interfere with only per cent.
of the total meat supply. The loss of cattle
by the disease had in few years amounted
to millions. One of the best means of insur-
ing meat supply was to encourage home
production Great Britain could not long
rely upon America for meat, as the rapid in
crease of the latter'S population was causing
the exportable surplus to become less daily,
The member for Sheffield, Mr. Mundella,
opposed the motion. He said one-sixth of
the cattle and meat supplied to great Britain
was of foreign production. The motion would,
he continued, cause an enormous loss to the
consumer.
Mr.. j. G. Dodson, member for Scarbor-
ough, said the motion meant the absolute
prohibition of importation of live stock
The government was unable to agree there
to, but would assent to the appointment OF
select committee to inquire into the ques-
sion of the foot and mouth disease An
amendment in favor of such select committee
was, however, negatived, and Mr.. Chaplin's
motion was subsequently carried, by vote
of 200 to 1872. the members of the govern
ment voting with the minority

The Spanish Government and the Constitu-

MADRID, July 10-In the Chamber of Dep
uties debate was raised by the Democrats
on the policy the government has begun.
Dominquez, among other speakers, attacked
the government as not liberal enough He
declared that his party only accepted the
constitution of 1876 with view of revising
it on the lines of that OF 1859 Prime Min
lister Sagasta, in reply, said it was willing to
embrace even the extreme Democrats among
the liberal, and introduce by organic laws
the most liberal reforms, but he thought a
change in the constitution was not necessary
for this purpose. He was not. however, Oh
stinately opposed to change in the consti-
tuition if experience showed it necessary.

lows: SIN view of the fact that there was no

Losses Not So Heavy as Reported.

PORTLAND, Ore, July 1o.-Reports tonight
shows that the news received of forest fires
along the Columbia are greatly exaggerated.
There was little loss in the settled part of the
country. Much underbrush was destroyed,
but large trees were so full of sap that very
little damage was done. George W. Weld
ler's railroad logging camp and wharf was
not damaged, as previously reported. The

THE TELEGRAPHERS.
No Confirmation of Strike Rumors-A CO.
Operative System.

New YORK. July 10.-No confirmation of
the report of strike among the operators of
the Western Union Telegraph Company
could be obtained to-day. From the state
ments made by prominent member of the
Brotherhood of the Knights of Labor, it
would be inferred that no strike was immi
nent. This member, who is at present in the
office of the Associated Press, said that the
organization, which is secret, embraced 10000
out of the 10000 telegraph operators in the
country. At the last annual meeting of the
delegates of the Brotherhood at Chicago, last
March, the executive committee was author
lied to take what action it deemed necessary
to secure an increase in the wages of tele-
graph operators. According to newspaper,
recently started for circulation among tele-
graph men, and to the person referred to
above, discussion" is going on among the
brothers over a plan fer. building telegraph
lines under a cooperative stock company, to
be formed by the operators themselves 1t
is conceded however, that no prospectus of
the alleged scheme "in contemp plation" is yet
in type. 1t could not be learned whether or
not the talk of cooperative telegraph sys-
TEN was part of the work of the executive
committee to secure an increase in wages.
a srr',xe 20 be Inangurated On Monday.
ST. LOUIS, July 10.-The Post-Dispatch an
nounced this evening, on what is considered
reliable authority, but which has not yet
been verified, that the Brotherhood of Tele-
graphers will inaugurate general strike at
noon next Monday. 1t is said there are up
wards of 5000 operators in the brotherhood,
and if they go out the result will be hardly
less than public calamity. 1t is not known
here whether any direct demand has yet
been made the telegraph company. but it is
alleged one will be presented embracing sew
en- hours as nights work, extra pay for
Sunday work and greater uniformity of, if
not higher wages. 1t is also said the broth
erhood is strongly opposed to the introduc-
tion of any girls or women in the business.
Telegraph officials here have no definite in
formation regarding the reported move
ment, and evinee no disposition to talk about
it. The general office of the brotherhood is
at Pittsburg, and it is understood all orders
or edicts will be issued from that place

Clean YOnr Wheat.

We are not complaining because our

their wheat to market rs 1t comes

the ones who are daily complaining
because the wheat is not clean, and
they say furthermore, that wheat
which is Ne. | hard when cleaned, is
not graded as such by them, with the

but we don't do it that way in Amer

him twice To begin with, he is much more
than six feet tall, so that ones nose is
on level with the diamond in his shirt

He covers your back with one broak hand,
and doesn't crook his elbow at ali. With the
other, he clasps yours wrong ssside up, and
holds it out so hard that your arm feels as if
it was going to pull Off at the shoulder. You

the outlandishness, the only drawback, when

The Wheat Market.

If the natural advantages Morris
has in shipping wheat either way, to
Minneapolis or Duluth, does not make
it as good market as can be found
any where this side of these places
named, then there can be no good ac-
complished in establishing one upon
which the farmers can at all times re-
Nv. We have all the facilities town
can need in the way of roads and ele-
yators, and if this does not give us
competition among wheat buyers it
will be little difficult to say what
will do 1t. 1t may be the case for the
present, that all the buyers will each
morning come together and agree up
on price which all will pay alike,
but the time is not far off when the
demand for the best will be great
enough to open up competition that
will force those vino get it, to pay the
highest market price; and that time
is SO near, farmers can take encour-
