Protect the Butchers.

Mr.. EDITOR: I see in the last INTELLI-
GENcER suggestion that there is good
opening here for frst.class butcher.
There never has been time that meat
man could make q living In Anderson.
One after another have tried it and failed.
Why2 Because the Council know more
about the business than man who has
spent life time in it, and there will be no
meat market, long at time, until we get
enough men with a little common practical
sense to give protection to the butcher.
All cities but Anderson protect the meat
men, and they do it by charging the ped
oilers five dollars for every COW retailsd on
the streets. Two butchers can live in An
derson during the winter; one could live
during summer if you will give him the
trade of the city, but no other way. I
know party now that would open first
class meat market, and make it q business
the year round, and he is prepared and able
and willing, but will not unless he can be
protected. AS long as the present law ex-
ists, just that long you can be accommo-
dated with the present supply Of meats,
which is no supply at all. a good meat
market depends upon the action Of the
Council right away. Don.
