The Sedalia weekly bazoo. [volume] (Sedalia, Mo.) 187?-1904, 1885-05-12


Mexico, Mo-, last Thursday by the
leading citizens of Boone, Galloway
and Audrian counties to consider
means of relief from the cattle quar-
antine OF other states and at which
Gov. Marnaduke was present, re-
suited just as every one interested in
the states welfare predicted. DR.
Michener of the national bureau of
animal industry reported that the dis
ease had been effactually checked and
there is net now a single case of acute
conta gious pleuro-pneumonia in Gala
way county. He recommended that
a fund of $4,000 be raised by sub
scription and placed in the state treas
urers's hands for use in case of a re-
newal of the outbreak during the
next six months. He believes inter-
state quarantine m assures unnecessary
except in reference to Callaway
county and recommends that cattle be
permitted to pass from that county on
official inspection and certificate, and
that from other counties the shipper
should certify that the cattle have not
come from Galloway county or been
exposed to the disease. These recon-
men cations were adopted and state
ment of the meetings action trans
mitted TO the governors of Illinois,
Iowa, Kansas, Colorado, New Mex
leo and Wyoming, asking that the
general quarantine embargo be re-
moved, That it will be removed in
very short time there can be little
doubt and once more Missouri will oe
able to take her place in the front
rank as one of the greatest shipping
centres for fine cattle in the entire
country. A little patience gentlemen
and the great pleuro-pneumOnii scare
of 1885 will be over and its panic
stricken followers will "come march
ing home again" In this entire bus
mess, however, it is well to remem-
Der that to Gov. Marmaduke is due
much of the credit of its suppression
and the taxpayers of the entire state
owe him a vote of thanks for his rare
good sense in not calling an extra ses-
sion of the legislature.

BY a strategic movement on the
partof the republicans in the thirty
fourth legislative district of Illinois,
Lee per, the democratic nominee for
the vacancy left by the death of Rep
resentative Shaw, was defeated and
"Black Jack" is now pretty certain to
be the United States senator. The
lesson conveyed is that the demo-
cratic leader should have been up and
doing If he did not wish to come in
with hindnost, for in such cases leth-
argy is dangerous element.

From a statement of correspond
ent to the Post Dispatch of St. Louis
it would seem that the managers at
Fulton did not 60 out of their way in
expanding money which had been APP
propriated for another purpose and
even now have $4,000 to the credit
of the cattle fund. We do not say it
should be done, but that $4,000
might be sensibly added to the fund
which is being raised in case of an
other outbreak of the disease which
originated in the asylum herd.

RIVERS AS REGULATORs.

The argument that the railroads carry i've
times as much freight as the boats is used
against the expenditure of money for the
improvement of the river. The question is
often asked why the government should eX-
pend millions of dollars for the improve
ment of Western rivers when SO small
proportion of Western freight is carried
on them. The question received an appro-
plate answer from the ST. Louis Republican.
which says: "The rivers are indispensable as
regulators Of freight rates. Even when
freights 60 by rail the rivers dictate the
price of carriage. The safer and easier
river navigation is, the lower are the rates
both by rail and river. When the rivers are
full rates are down; when the water is low
the roads put up the rates. \ strik-
ing example is before US at this mo
ment The railroads In the Northwest
are complaining that boats carry freight
from st. Louis to st. Paul for 10 and even
5 cents a hundred-S2 and 81 a ton. They
assert that they cannot carry at these low
rates except at loss. Nevertheless they
must do It, because these are the river rates
and the roads must conform to them as long

sippi. When the water falls and navigation
becomes difficult and tedious, the roads will
take the matter into their own hands

navigation on the upper Mississippi then.
is worth 25 to 35 cents hundred on
large portion Of the produce raised in the
NorthweSt-even though every ton of 1t
should 60 by rail. Railroad pools can eStab-
lish rates at their pleasure when river nav
igation is difficult and tedious; but, given
good depth of water and dangerous OBJ

the absolute regulators Of rates; and the
roads, powerful as they are thought to be,
have no choice but TO submit Every inn

and on Eastern merchandise sent TO the

JAY COOKE AT DULUTH.

JAY COOKIES visit to the city which he

occasion of a demonstration Of honor
worthy Of the distinguished visitor and
creditable to the people of the city. The
Duluth of to-day is vindication Of the

pioneer efforts in founding the city received
discouragement and ridicule from every

Still it must be with feelings of intense

which he mapped out and for which he be-
came the object Of a nations ridicule, Mr.
COOKE may well feel proud of his early
protege. 1t is pity that Proctor KNOTT

WAR OF THE UNDERTAKERs.

A riIiculous, yet somewhat amusing, war
is being waged among the New York un-
deTtakers, growing out of the details Of the
GRANT funeral. 1t seems that MERRITT,
who got the undertaking job, was special
friend OF ParSon NEWMAN, and that gen.
tleman interposed his influence with the
GRANT family to keep out all competition
and TO protect MERRITT in his monopoly.
A prominent undertaken who furnished the
casket free for the Garfield funeral, wanted
to make the same proposition to the GRANT
family. BE thought the advertisement he
received would be ample compensation.
But whenever he attempted to get his prop
osition before the GRANT family he found
the reverend guardian of the household with
a flaming sword in hand TO bar his admis-
sion within the portals. The result was
that MERRITT had his own way. He took
his family to Mount McGregor and
spent two whole weeks. He made the
other undertakers tired by his constant
boasting that he GRANT casket was the
only coffin in the history Of undertaking
which had been adorned with solid silver
and which had a solid gold inscription
plate. The other undertakers retort by
saying that they never knew such bad taste

THE WABASH STRIKE.

There must be more or less uneasiness
felt because Of the order issued by the ex-
ecutive committee Of the Knights of Labor
relating to a strike along the Wabash line.
If, as stated, there are so, 900 men included
in the organization west of the Mississippi
river who will be influenced by 1t, there is
Just cause for apprehension. The indica-
tions are that by to-day the various subor-
dinate lodges of the labor organization will
have considered the matter, with all
probability that they will obey the order
of the executive committee. Very natur-
ally public sentiment will be with the strik-
ers and against the corporations. At the
same time the strikers will soon lose that
sympathy if they engage in any unlawful
acts. Law and order is the first considera-
ton, and if the strikers keep within proper
limits they will win.

He would attract crowds TO his meetings
whether he got votes or not 1t would be
fun TO hear him. The Rochester Herald
says that with TALNAGE on the stump there
would be no necessity for ardent spirits.
Things would be lively enough without the
ardent. Yet there is no probability that
the eminent orator would want to transfer
his talents from the pulpit to the stump.
He feels more at home in the tabernacle
than he would in the executive ONCE at Al
bany. And besides. the gubernatorial Of
