The drawn battle between our dis
tinguished fellow countryman, John l..
Sullivan and the bristling Britisher,
Major Pugnacious Mitchell, was really
defeat for Colonel Sullivan. For man
Of his fame and skill in his particular
branch Of the fine arts not TO win is ig-
ANONYMOUSLY to loose. 1t was the proud
boast OF himself and countrymCn that
"he could lick his weight in wild cats"
where ever and when ever he should
enter the ring,
1t will be interesting to know the
reason of this national calamity and
humiliation. Nothing seems to be bet
ter established by the cable reports than
that the John L. Sullivan of former days
would have knocked out Mitchell in
the first ten minutes, il not before. 1t
does not seem to be the old John L.
Sullivan who "put up his props" in de-
tlance against the British pugilist,
Mitchell gave Sullivan dozen such
opportunities us would have served Sui
Ivan in his best days. But Sullivan, in
stead Of forcing the fight ms slugger,
contented himself with sparring for
points. Under the circumstances Sulli-
van may thank his lucky stars that he
escaped with draw. The only wonder
is that he was not whipped out OF the
ring.
Where does John l.. Sullivan stand
now? He has met Mitchell and has not
defeated him. He has shown that he
has lost his old time grip. Can he gather
himselfup for one of his old time mills?
II not our national defeat is IN utter
rout, and hGnceforth We shall have to
look to Kilrain or some other bruiser to
keep our national banner from trailing
in the dust. We should like to know
what the cultured Bostonese think Of
this humiliating situation.

WEDNESDAY, MARCH 1883.


The hog is not exactly our American
emblem. But circumstances are rapidly
conspiring to elevate him to our mast ma
head in place Of the spread eagle. That
would DO novel sight, to be sure II
will bother the artists a little with
they get used TO it, and the orators
would have to do little recomtructins
of their 4th of July orations. But in
time all these things would accommo-
date themselves to the changed con-
dition.
Germany and France have done very
much to dethrone the eagle and to ele-
yato the hog in the estimation OF the
American citizens; for they have used
our hog despitefully, and our eagle as 1t
seem is powerless to defend our nation
al honor. Bismarck declared that our
hog was in bad health. France took up
the cry, and all Europe believed it. So
It came to pass that the American hog
with all his fine capabilities for making
life comfortable to the human race fell
below par in the markets OF the old
world.
This wrong against the noble ami
nal could be easily wiped out If we
would prohibit the importation of Ger
man and French products, for example,
wines, wooden fabrics, silks, and count
less odds and ends which afford employ
ment to the old world and can be made
source Of profit in this. So we shall
kill several birds with one big stone.
AT homo also the American hog is not
being well treated. Until now he has
been the great and only lard producer,
and wherever hog was mentioned lard
was understood, Just us in other times
butter meant COW. To-day lard means
largely cotton seed oil as butter means
oleOmargarinc. There is perhaps not a
great lard factory in the country which
does not consume vast quantities OF cot
ton seed oil in making this product.
Cotton seed oil is wholesome veget-
able product much to be preferred to
poor hog lard. A good article Of cleo
margarine is better than bad COW butter,
but the objection which lies against one
imitation lies against the other-it is not
the thing which it processes to be. "skim
milk masQuerades MS cream"
A bill has been presented in the House
of Representatives directing the Com
mittee on Agriculture to inquire into
tho expediency OF prohibiting the sale
of compounds as pure lard. In view OF
the practical failure OF the oleomargarine
bill to accomplish its purpose, not much
is to be hoped for from the legislation
proposed; and yet in the interest OF fair
commercial dealings, to say nothing of
the American hog, We shall be glad to
see Congress do anything it can do to
place compound lard distinctly on its
own merits.
This is where every commodity should
be placed. II people want cotton seed
oil lard they ought to be able to be sure
ofgcttingit. The same is true OF those
persons who have an inherited prefer
oncc for pure hog lard.
