answer. We all know that q large
quantity of dressed beef from Chicago IS
delivered daily at ali important railroad
points, but the consumer does not feel
sure whether the Chicago beef ever
reaches his table, The retail butcher,
falsely instructed by the wholesaler and
the dressers of WORKOUT cows, mlnia-
ture steers, or worked down oxen. has
for years felt it to be to his interest to
decry Chicago beef, repeat all the sensa-
tionai falsehoods he has learned about it,
and when asked if he sells it hold up his
hands in holy horror that he
should sell the beef he has so loudly
decried. The truth, however. Is
that nearly every retail butcher
having first class family trade to sup
ply has had to sell Chicago beef, be-
cause it was the kind of meat that was
the most tender and healthy looking,
and the only kind any sensible house
wife would buy after she had once tried
it. Many a juicy Chicago roast has
been placed on the table with the well
meant but erroneous comment, '.What
beautiful meat we are getting. We
don't need to buy Chicago beef" The
truth is that in Llost cases the best meat
exposed in the butchers stalls comes
from Chicago, and the sooner the retail
butchers realize that their customers
prefer the superior Chicago beef under
its right name the better they will get
along.

ASSESSMENT AND TAXATION.

To the Editor of the Eagle.
HUPLE, Kan, Feb. 8, 1889.
l noticed an article in recent issue of
the EAGLE in reference to the revision OF
our tax laws by Farmer Doolittle. By all
means let us have them revised in the
interest of the people of Kansas, and
particularly that portion of our people
who are producing wealth and contrib
uting to the prosperity of the state.
The spectators in the land who expect
the value of their land increas-
ed by the industry and enterprise
of other people should be cOmpell-
ed to contribute something toward
advancing the value of there property
themselves. If we are compelled, in i'm
proving the country, to add to the value
of their property why not compel them
to contribute some equivalent! This can
easily be done by increasing the exemp-
ton of personal property. The tax on
personal property is nearly all paid by
the citizens of Kansas.
Suppose two farms Of equal value lie
side by side; one belongs to a non-resi
dent speculator and one to resident
farmer, the tax being $40 on each
and the farmers personal tax
$40 above his exemption of 5000.
This makes fifty dollars tax for both,
the SPECTATORS tax ten dollars less than
the farmers. Now if the farmer was
exempt from the ten dollar personal tax
it would (since the amount of money to
be collected would be the same) add five
dollars tax to both farms and the farmer
would gain V in the operations.
see by the papers that there is an eff
fort being made to have property assess
ed at its full value. This move should
be effectually squelched. The basis of
thirty per cent exempts nearly seven
hundred dollars worth of personal prop
erty from taxation if you make the ex-
five:hundred less the tax on this
will be paid by our own people and non
resident spectators will be relieved to
greater exeent. The assessor should
adopt as low basis on personal property
as possible, for the larger the portion
that fails on real estate the more to be
paid by non-residents.

THE OLD SYSTEM RESTORED.

The Kansas board of railway commits
sioners have issued an order restoring the
old railroad tariff on live stock. doing
away with the system of weighing ali
live stock shipments at terminal of trans
portation. The board says: "After in
yestigation and discussion of the matters,
it appears that by reason of inadequate
facilities for weighing the large ship
ments arriving each day upon track
scales, serious delays in delivering such
consignments of live stock at the stock
yards at Kansas City ware occasioned,
and injuries to cattle and stock inflicted
by such delays and the motion of the
trains in passing over the track scales
causing deterioration of the stock for
market and corresponding depreciation
of prices. it was therefore deemed advis-
able to withdraw the tariff regarding
live stock to be weighed, and substitute
the tariff in effect Immediately prior to
the taking effect of those to which OBJ
jections are made" 1t is intImated,
though on what ground is not stated.
that the railroads will object. and some
of them may refuse to obey the order.

TO E. P. FORD.

The creeds of men are the accretions
VI all the ages past and gone.
And you are like Che old n1agicians,
Tramping on them one by one.
Emperors and kings with power,
And Intelligences keen,
Tried TO kill in an evil hour
The faith preach'd by the Nazarine,
Julian, the apostle, tried it.
Brave to rashness but self-wiiPd
His name thro' time shall be derided,
Still he Christ's prophecy fulfilled,
Theologically ranging
On that sea without shore,
While the church divine, unchanging,
Teaches truth for evermore.
A superhuman mathematician,
BY the shores of Gallilee,
Taught: salvation being his mission
That Three makes One andOne makes
Three
Great mysteries are all around us,
We find them here on every hand
The verdantiblades of grass confound us
Their growth we cannot understand.
Man-made creeds live for season,
But soon they die and pass away
And then those who follow human reason
Too often find themselves astray.
Then why should man IN any station,
Who bows beneatL'uod's Christening rod
Presume to doubt that his salvation
Rests on the faith taught by his God

KICKING BEFORE BEING sPURRED.

Are the citizens of Topeka cringing
slaves or freemen? If they are seif-respect-
ing men let them cry out as unit against
putting Topeka under the operations of
the Metropolitan police law. Woe be unto
any representative of Shawnee county who
votes to put Topeka under that abomiua-
tion of denominations, the Metropolitan
police law.-Topeka Democrat.
When the abomlnation was about to
be fastened upon Wichita, Leavenworth
and Kansas City, Topeka rather enjoyed
the proceeding and Knocked at the pro-
tests that went up against the outrage
from the cities first named, and there
was no thought of making appeal, such
as the Democrat utters in the first part
of the paragraph quoted, to the manhood
and sense of patriotic pride to interfere
for the sake of principle. But now that
there is prospect for the infiiction to be
visited or the capital, if the system is
maintained elsewhere, see how indig
nant they grow, and how bitterly they
protest. Well. the question of right is as
much involved today as when the last
Legislature enacted the Metropolitan po
lice bill and its provisions were
applied to this and the other
two cities named, and from that
standpoint Wichita protests as earnestly
now as she did then, but no more vehe-
mently than she would were she ex-
empted from the operations of the old
law or the proposed new one. Ncr is it
one whit more consoling to us that 9th
ers shall be made to suffer with us.
further than is embraced in the idea of
equal treatment to all, the principle that
was ignored before that three cities
named might be Inundated and placed
in false light before the world.
AS we said, there is no greater de-
mand for the original law today than
there was when it was enacted two
years ago, but unless it is repealed. as it
ought TO be, we demand and shall con-
tinue to demand that it be made applica-
BILE TO all alike. Ii it is good thing, all
should have the benefits of it: if it is
otherwise. as it is, all should feel it
equally. We ask nothing more, nor will
we accept anything less.

ABOUT FARMING AND A FAIR.
WICHITA, Feb. 4, 1889.

WICHITA, FeD. 4, 1908.
To the Editor of the Eagle.
The farmers of this valley are glad to
note the fact that our worthy board of
trade are taking an interest in the farm
ers' welfare in taking steps toward get
ting in some early varities of seed, some
thing we stand in need of, and l trust
the farmers will come forward and take
hold and give the corn a fair trial. There
will be better and more thorough farm
ing done by the farmers of the south
west this year than was ever done be-
fore. The farmers are seeing the need
of better tillage of the soil to get the de-
sired results.
Wheat bids fair for bountiful har-
vest-never looked better at time of the
year. The ground is in splendid con-
dition for spring farming.
What is Wichita going to do in regard
to holding an agricultural fair this year?
While our board of trade are doing
many things for Wichita and surround
ings, why can't they lease the ground of
the Driving Park association and hold a
first class agricultural fair; something
that would be credit to the county? l
believe if gotten up and conducted in
the right manner that the farmers and
stock raisers would come and lend a
helping hand. | am willing to lend
what assistance l can to promote its
progress. Or will the stock raisers have
to go out Of Sedgwick to exhibit what
they raise in the claimed banner county
of Kansas?
feel in hopes we will raise bounti-
full crop of fruit this year; the fruit is all
right so far.
Hoping to hear something more de-
finite on this subject, | remain yours
truly, OLD TIMER,
Farmer and Stock Raiser.

Ingenuity in Chicken Raising.

An ingenious chicken raiser near Po-
mona, Cal. has devised a way of pre-
venting chickens fiom scratching up his
garden. He crosses the long legged
Brahmas with the short-legged Bantams,
and the result is new breed of fowls
with one long leg and one short leg.
When they raise either leg to scratch
they loose their balance and come 10
grief. After a few demoralizing at
tempts they desist.
An ingenius kentuckian has devised a
scheme that beats the foregoing and does
not cross the breeds. He supply takes
two small sized forked sticks, cuts off
the two prongs about an inch from where
they join, leaves the body of the sticks
say six inches long. sharpening the single
end so it viii stick in the ground He
then attaches one of these to each leg of
his brood hens Just above the feet, tying
it on with a soft string, loosely but Sc
curely, so that the sharpened end will
fall TO the ground readily, pointing to
the rear. When a hen thus equipped
undertakes to scratch in the garden. rails
ing foot to make stroke the sharpened
stick forces her to take step. thus
walking her right out OF the garden In
spite of herself.

THE DRESSED BEEF QUESTION.
That Meat Bill.

Chester (Pa,) News. Jan. 49,
We have seen an abstract of the bills
before our legislature, ostensibly for the
inspection of meat, but which we be.
lieve has very large niger in a very
small woodpile. To inspect beef is all
right and proper. provided it is done
honestly, but the bill reveals its true in
wardness when it excludes the admission
of all beef dressed outside of the state.
1t thus strikes a death blow at an in
dustry that has been pursued for long
time, and which has not, as far as we
have heard, provoked an objection, ex-
cept from few who wish to shut out
competition.
For long time our packing houses
have purchased meats in the western
markets, and through them we have had
the quality of our meats improved,
and the prices kept at a fair figure.
1t has given employment TO hun
dreds of our people, and placed CAPT
tai in an avocation which has enabled
our poor people to purchase at reasonable
prices The Pittsburg Dispatch unveils
this attempt to make meat scarce and
dear, and to line the pockets of a few
spectators. in the following terms:
This is really minor point beside the
main issue of decreeing that the supply
of cheap meat for the working masses of
PENNSYLVANIA shall be cut off; but it
affords fair example of the stupidity
which draws up state legislation for ex-
Guiding the products of other states. AS
to the main issue, that has been stated
clearly enough already. 1t is yelled be-
hind the gauzy pretext of securing
healthy meat but the purpose of making
meat more costly is clear enough in the
provisions, and is openly avowed by the
supporters OF the bill. No one asks for
the bill except those who are interested
in keeping up the prices of meat; and its
provisions are exactly those which have
been urged by the interested classes for
their own benefit.

conditions in different localities. The fear
of negro dominion in the south has led to
practices which, in many localities, have
deprived that race of the constitutional
right of suffrage, and which, if continued,
will prove fatal to our republican form of
government. We are now seeking the
remedy.
We fully recognize the difficulties and
embarassments of the white Republi-
cans in Texas and other southern states,
and we credit these particular Repubh-
cans with the unsel6sh and patriotic mo-
tives they profess. But the Harris
county idea might be succinctly de-
scribed as plan for unrepublicanizing
the Republican party and driving self
respecting colored voters cut of it.

Mrs. Blaine, Jr.


New Ork sun.
Mrs. James G. Blaine is at present IN
dergoing the preliminary steps of going
on her starring tour. She now in the
Photographic stage, and the results are
series of pictures which the public will
see before long in the shop windows and
theatre lobbles of the country. The pict-
ures represent woman of unusual
beau Y. Her face has not the handsome
and rigid outlines of Mrs. Langtry, nor
has it the juvenile sweetness OF Mrs.
Potter, but certain dignity is lent to
the face by a broad brow, deep-set eyes,
and an expression which might be
termed girlish gravity of the mouth. AS
a subject for the camera Mrs. Blaine is
unquestionably a success. The details
respecting her powers as an actress have
still to be determined.
