Objects TO Chicago Meat.


To the Editor of the Globe.
l notice by an evening paper that Ell.
E. Fletcher, president of the Twin City
Stock Yards company, IS buying beef
for his hotel, the Brunswick, from the
Chicago packers. Now, | for one pro-
test against this for the following rea-
sons:
First-In behalf of the local dealers
whom he is depriving of this trade,
which they need. Some have contracted
to build slaughter houses at his yards,
and when located there will be constant
patrons of his, and it is no more than
fair that he should patronze home pro-
ducers, even if he has to pay little
more.
Second-In behalf of the patrons
of the Brunswick, who are en-
titled to wholesome meats. On
March oath last. Mr.. Fletcher gave to
Tribune reporter as a reason (among
others) for advocating this live stock
inspection measure. that it was needed
on sanitary grounds; that there was
danger from Texas fever. as it was often
impossible to detect this disease after
cattle were killed and dressed, the i'm
piled inference being that Kansas City
and Chicago packers were in the habit
OF knowingly killing cattle suffering
from this disease, hence local inspection
became necessary as protective
measure. AS the present run OF Texas
cattle in Chicago is heavy, and as
they are bought largely by the
Gamers from whom Mr.. Fletcher
gets his supplies, is there not great
risk taken in serving his guests with
such meats?
Third-As good law-abiding citizen
L don't think he should set such an ex-
ample. Attorney General Clapp re-
Gently declared it violation of the law
for a hotel or restaurant to buy Chicago
meats,and certainly MIR. Fletcher doesn't
want to place himself in the position of
a laW-breaker CITIZEN.

a TARIFF TIP.

The well-known cotton manufactur-
ing firm in Philadelphia of JOHN LEES
& Son made an assignment the other
day. The head of the firm makes pub
lie explanation of the failure. in which
he says it was due directly to an over
stocked market, but indirectly to the
tariff on raw material. IL have come to
the conclusion" says Mr.. LEES, "that
the only salvation for the manufacture
Ing industries of this country must be
found in free raw material. Unless
congress removes the tariff on wool, it
won't be long before some of the larg-
est factories in this country will be
compelled to close their DOORS"
This is strange language to come from
a man who contributed last fall to
JOHN WANAMAKER's campaign fund !;
but it is spoken with soberness which
indicates that the scales have fallen
from his eyes. There are other manu-
facturers in all sections of the country,
who, like Mr.. LEES, are beginning to
realize the mischief that is to be wrought
by excessive production.

A Bread Trust.
the Editor of the Globe.

To the Editor of the Globe.
The Pioneer Press of this morning
contained the following as sort of ed
itorial note:
Free trade England has bread trust in
London that controls 500 retail bak cries,
with certified yearly profit of $4,000. And
vet the free traders in this country are trying
hard to make their dupes swallow the state
ment that trusts are only possible under the
protection regime.
This is doubtless one of the trusts"
with which the eminent Blaine had
England "all plastered over" last fall.
1t seems that about one baker to $4,000
of the London population belong to this
favored trust" and the average profit
per bakery is S153.33. Plenty of ''dupes"
on this side the Atlantic could be in
duced to swallow" bread sold at the
figures which the above profits would
indicate. Perhaps if the government
would legislate US bread at the above
rate of profit to the bakery, the ''dupes"
might be more willing to be fined 100
per cent, or Whereabouts, on what struct-
ural iron we are obliged to use, only SO
that the fine may be paid to Mr.. Carne-
gle ct al. and not into the public treas
ury. Yours, etc. A. DUPE.

He preached sermon last Sunday even

Young Theological Prodigy.

There's yOungster of fourteen living
out at Crystal Lake who will make his
mark one of these days unless all signs
fail. His name is Frank Jones. The
proof of the fact that sooner or later he
is going to carve his name somewhere
In Fame's temple lies IN a little incident
which occurred something over year
ago. There was convention of Sun
day school teachers in session at Crystal
Lake, and all the teachers of the three
counties represented were there.
On the last day of. the convention the
high chief ranger of the affair an
nounced to the 400 delegates that he
would be pleased to have the knowing
ones think up some hard questions on
subjects pertaining to their work, write
them on slips of paper and submit them
to him, and that evening at the last seS-
sion. which was to be sort of enter
tainment, he would answer them. A
lot of people wrote their questions and
gave them to the great professor, and
when evening came he had about fifty
good old gnarly problems in his bunch
of paper slips.
The evenings exercises began with
reading and answering the questions,
and though some of them were from
away back and very abstruse, the good
man who had put himself up there as a
mark COPIED with them successfully,
and impressed the great gathering with
his vast knowledge. Finally he ran
against question that made him knit
his brOws. He scowled at it moment,
and then laid it aside. When he ans
wered all the rest he picked up this
side-tracked query and said:
Here is question which confess [
am unable to answer. l will submit it
to the audience. and if any one is able
to give the answer l shall be glad to hear
what it is"
Then he read this query:
ssWho was the boy and what was his
name who held the basket containing
the FIVE loaves and two fishes with which
Christ fed the multitude?"
Nobody made any effort to answer 1t,
and the professor said:
''It seems that nobody knows any
more about this than do. l will have
to call on the person who submitted the
question to come forward and answer it.
Will you please do SOP"
To the great surprise of the 400 peO-
Jones, a thirteen-year-old school boy,
cot M and modestly walked up the aisle.
Everybody looked at him amazed.
"The boy" said Frank, quietly but
steadily, was Ben Ezra, son of Miriam,
who was sister of Philip, one of the
twelve disciples"
A murmur of establishment ran over
the audience. Here was something too
deep for even the professed theologlsts
in convention assembled. The pro-
fessor turned to the boy:
Ibid you find that in the Bible%'

"Where, then, did you get it?'

That was the capsheaf. A lad of
