THE Chicago Tribune, now one OF
Mr.. Blaine's most ardent supporters,
said of him in 1876:
II Mr.. Blaine be nominated there
will begin the long, tedious and heart
sickening work of explaining and de.
Tending that score of letters. several OF
which have not yet seen the light, and
defending a long record Of votes for
subsidies to monOpolies and question
able legislation of other kinds. If,
before that campaign be ended, the
people shall weary of the disgusting
repetition, and at the October elections
in Ohio and Indiana shall resent such
n nomination and such record, and
in November shall elect Democratic
President and a Democratic Senate and
House, and deliver to the same party
the control of ee-fOurths of the State
governments, we insist that no Re-
publican shall hold this paper respon-
sible for the folly which invited such
d disaster by the nomination OF such a
candidate.
The Tribune should lose no time in
beginning the long, tedious and
heart sic keniDg work"

SEVEN hundred millions Of dollars
have been paid in pensions since the
war, one-fourth of which has been
fraudulently obtained from the treasu-

who have charge of the bureau.
1T is claimed that Blaine is worth
$1,000, 600, which he has made in
Washington out of the public service
in less than twenty years, and lived
like a prince all the time. And yet
they say Blaine is an honest man,
1T Is quite fitting that Steve Elkins,
one of the principal movers in the star

chief boomer and the chairman of the
Republican National Committee. He
is the proper man to assume Dorsey's
old role.
THE Republican leaders are advoca-

Every drop of the blood is saved and con
verted into fertilizers with the intestines

purpose, and at Forty fourth street and
East River is one establishment which uses
the blood and refuse from 5000 beeves
every week The offal is used fresh every
day 1t is not allowed to lie over long
enough to become tainted thus the usual
fearful odors of the slaughtering house are
avoided. The blood is caught in barrels
and hauled into the factory, where it is
poured into large tank on the ground
floor, from which it is pumped into i'm
mense vertical boilers situated on the sec
ond floor, their lower ends reaching down
through the floor into the "drying" room.
When filled, these boilers are Theoretically
sealed and subjected to a straining process
under pressure of eighty pounds to the
square inch. 1t requires but few mo-
ments to 'cook" blood, there being so much
albumen in it that is soon coagulates when
heated 1t is then drawn off at the bottom
of the boilers in the "drying" room, when
it is put into huge sacks of cocoa mating
and subjected to hydrostatic pressure, which
expels all moisture and leaves the blood
dry, dusty substance, more resembling brick
dust than anything else. Bones and offal
undergo similar process. When they
come from the boilers, where they are re-
quired to be steamed for IA hours and some
times longer, they look like sand with
a sprinkle of white gravel. The white
gravel is bone, which may easily be crushed
between the thumb and forefnger. The
whole mass is sent through the crushers
and screens, which reduce it to powder,
when it is ready for market
While the mill itself is full of offensive
odors, none are allowed to escape to annoy
the neighborhood. From each of the boilers
pipe carries off all gases discharging them
into the bottom of condenser made of
boiler plate, six feet in diameter by thirty
feet high, placed on end and filed with
brick laid in alternate rectangular courses,
with interstices an inch square between
them. The foul gases rise through these
brick and are met by column of salt wa
ter entering at the top and dispersed in
spray, which condenses them Some gases
are not affected by the salt water Such
are drawn from the condenser by pressure
blower and forced through pipe into the
furnaces under the engines, where they are
burned. The salt water having done its
part and being charged with foulness, is
driven back into the river to mingle with
the tide, ~. s, l,..t s.tss
