WASHINGTON, Dec. l3.-The house had a lively
discussion today over the bill for the inspec'
ton OF cattle and their products which are SD b.
iect TO interstate commerce. Both Mills and
Culbertson made telling speeches against the
measure. The passage of such bill was equiv

thing to the government and . confession that
they could not govern themselves. Under the
provision OF the bill no hogs or cattle could be
slaughtered or transported between states until
government official had inspected them.

rapidly growing with our sister on the south Of
US. She took from oaly about $3.50 90 In
1880. bul last year this had grown to sly QUU 100

hood. Mexico Is sui pushing her railway sys-

soon embrace her richest timber, sugar. coffae,
tobacco, tropical fruit and m neral sections
Rapid develo ment of these must inevitably
follow. We ought 10 promote as much prsc-
ticable our inspection facilities with hat coun-
