AMERICAN HAMS SOLD ASIRISH.
THEY YIELD BITTER PROFIT TO CERTAIN
LIMERICK FIRMS.

LIMERICK FL RMS.
Washington, July (speciaD.-Certain Irish firms
which are engaged in curing and selling hams and
bacon feel aggrieved on account Of a statement con-
tanned In report Of Consul Reid, of Dublin 70 the
effect that American hams, cured in the Unified States
are imported by Limerick firms and smoked and
stamped Irish hams, for sale and export. The
retail price of American hams in the Irish market, #
appears about Onehird less than that Of Irish hams
but after receiving the Irish brand the former sold
at only tr1fe below the latter. The statement Of
Consul Reid was denied by the Limerick firms. In a
report which viii soon be published Consul Reid EN-
bodies copy Of the denial and maintains that Ills
original statement correct although it might be
difficult to obtain absolute proof Of the practice lie
says:
Statesmen generally and some dealers admit TO me
verbally that hams and bacon largely sold
Irish meats in way and another, but in view Of
possible trouble they unwilling 70 have their names
knowledge used ubstantate the
tice Of particular firms presented my report.
this connection, say that Informed that IN
stalaeat Of hams will be received in France from Irish
cures unless the invoice is accompanied by affidavit
setting forth they Irish meats which think
affords strong presumptive evidence least, the
practice OF is has been have stated
Consul Reid also incloses copy Of the oath made
weekly by the most extensive curers and exporters Of
hams and bacon in Dublin to satisfy tie customs
authorities Of France Germany and other countries
which eHcluce American SWINE products tEat none
Of the meats which that firm exports Is has
been of American origin. This oath appears rs an
advertisement in The Dublin Telegraph of Nay 4.
1891, which paper inserts the following editorial
mcnt. The firm determined that their buyers shall
have occasion TO doubt the genuneness Of their
Irish hams and bacon. and now publishing a copy
Of the weekly affidavit which they make for export
purposes. If all firms were prepared 10 give a similar
guarante, the trade would be in frmer state
Consul Reid seems to have the better Of this con-
trOversy. Limerick bacon" cured and packed in
Chicago has been the Irish market for years 1t is
in every respect equal If not SUPERIOR Irish bacon,
but 1t costs the Limerick firms about 30 per cent less
than the latter, and OF course yields them better
profit, although the consumer pays about the same
price Probably a good deal Of Chicago bacon and a
good many Chicago hams lind market in France
under an Irish brand.

LEADERS IN CLUB WORK.

JOHN L. WEBSTER, MEMBER OF THE REPUBLI-
CAN NATIONAL LEAGUE COMMITTEE
FOR NEBRASKA.
One Of the most active men al the National Con-
ventioDs Of the Republican League John L. Webster
who represents Nebraska In tia National Committee
, 1891-04-01

The principal grounds upon which the
Russian i~ustiies the persecution of his
Hebrew brother are as follows. He AS
serts; First-That the jews are too IA
plcious and too successful in getting
money and property away from the sur
rounding Christians. Second-That they
hold themselves, as a class, apart from
the rest of the community. Third-That
they furnish many of the leading nihil-
lists and mischief makers. Fourth-That
they evade service in the army and do
not become patriotic Russians.
The first accusation may be ignored,
as it amounts simply to saying that the
jew is shrewder and more intelligent
han his neighbors of other races. As to
the Jews refusal to mingle more freely
with his neighbors of different creeds,
or, in other words, to assimilate with
the population, it cannot be said that he
has as yet received any very warm invi-
tation to do anything of the kind. He
has been chased like a beast of prey for
centuries, and now he is asked why he
does not like his prosecutors.
The charge of nihilism is perfectly
true, to the extent that the Jews natur-
ally furnish their proportionate quota to
the indictments who nave the courage
to act. But that the Jews among the
nihilists exceed their proper proportion
to the whole population is denied by
many trustworthy writers. The charge
that the Jew evades army service is dis
proved by official statistics.-P. G..
Hubert, Jr., in Forum.
