South st. Paul, Mimi, Feb -. 1897.
The Saint Paul Union Stochyards Com
bany has to announce that one of the
packers of pork who has been located at
South st. Paul for several years past,
is about to remove to New Brighton.
There is little of Importance in this re-
moval, but there has been a vast amount
of eXaggeration and MISREPRESENTATION
set .afloat by interested parties, in an
%nouncing the removal to the public,
which | deem it my duty to correct.
In the first place, the removing packer
has no interest here, except that of a
renter, and while he has occupied one
of our slaughter houses for some time
past, he has not killed a hog in said
house during the past seven or eight
months. | mention this fact to show
that his removal will not affect our mar
ket, and that he is but a small factor
in making the prices for live stock. I
do not consider this removal an evil, as
1t Will place us in a position, very shortly,
to supply his place. with parties who will
do business, and who will have sufficient
capital to do it on a scale in keeping
with the extensive facilities that our
company has provided, and which the
present vacator has utterly failed for
the better part of the year past to utilize.
The removing packer, during the past
eight months, has bought less than four
per cent of the cattle, less than two per
Cit VI tilc GlNtp, diit db'hl SIN per Ctlll
of the hogs that have been sold and
received at this place; SO it becomes. at
once plain that his removal is an unim-
portant event, and when it is understood
that his place will be filled by stronger
and better people within u brief time,
1t becomes self-evident that it VIII be a
blessing.

buyers who have been the vital support
and life of our market, will continue to
do business here, and | do not Hesitate
to guarantee that our markets will be
maintained and supported by the best
buyers in the Northwest. The seller of
live stock is more interestedtin selling at
the best market than in anything else.
The main question with him. is .oiie of
the greatest profit. With this admitted,
we have only to say to the shippers, don't
be misguided by men who misreprensent
the true situation to induce you to ship
to the wrong market, but let your good
judgement guide you to the larger and
better market, where competition and a
guaranteed open and Independent mar
ket, free from rings and corrupt manipu-
lation, will secure. you the fullest prices
and the fairest dealing. Don't allow
yourselves to be hoodwinked with false
promised to ship t. a market where little
or no competition will result in loss. but
stand by the market that you are ac-
quain ed with, and where you will realize
the fullest prices and the fairest treat
ment. Respectfully,
SAINT PAUL UNION SrOCKYARDS
