An official statement as to the
true cause of the recent reduction
in wages in cotton mills in New
England has been placed before
the Massachusetts legislature by a
committee appointed to discuss
the matter. The statement, which
is a lengthy one, summarized the
facts in the following brief
sentence: "Under the Dingley
tariff, labor is fairly we'll protect.
ed against undue foreign competi-
ton; the competition comes from
other states where machinery pro.
duces more by being run more
hours, and where wages are lower,
and where the taxes and other
burdens upon the industry are
less"

Towne's friends in Duluth are
considering condition they don't
like. Towne is very anxious to
get back to congress, but his
friends realize that he has little
chance to defeat Morris this year.
His friends fear the effect of an
other defeat. It is possible that
Towne's important duties as head
of the "free silver Republican,
organization in the country may
demand his services in other states
this gear, and he will not make
the almost hopeless fight in this
district. The Republicans would
take more satisfaction in defeating
Towne again than they would in
defeating any other candidate:
The Republicans of the district
are convinced that they can defeat
Towne again and by an increased
majority, and there will be good
deal of pleasure in doing SO.

DISEASED CATTLE.
A Contagious Disease Said 10
be Prevalent IN Cattle
at PlerZ.

During the last few weeks several
farmers III the town OF Pierz have
lost some Of their cattle by astrange
disease. Among these farmers were
John Stumpf and JOS. Otremba, the
former losing Ave head and the
latter two. Beng somewhat
alarmed, as the disease though un'
known to them. seemed to them to
threaten their entire herds, they
sent for DR.. Scruby, st. Cloud veter'
mary. to make an examination.
DR.. Scruby came up from St.
Cloud Monday and accompanied
". V. Wetzel to the farms Of Messrs
Stumpf and Otremba and making q
thorough examination, he pro.
nounceds the disease Anthrax,
which Is pronounced by the leading
medical experts Of this country as q
contagious and Infectious disease,
and practically incurable.
Cattle are not the only ANIMALS
subject to this disease. for it is
known to have caused the death OF
horses. sheep and swine as well.
Dr.. v. A. Nygaard, an inspector Oi
the Bureau of Animal Industry. who
was directed to make an i1vestiga-
ton of an outbreak Of the disease In
Wayne county, ILL.,, gave the follow.
ing In his report Of the symptoms OF
the disease in Il horse which are
about the same in cattle.
"When the infettiOn takes place
through the alimentary canal or
through the lungs. the first symp.
toms are a very high fever. a small but
very rapid pulse, the visible mucous
membranes cyanotic, IN some cases
symptoms of congestion OF the brain,
but III almost all cases symptoms ol
colo, with diarrhea often mixed with
blood. The respfra ton is from 70 to
so 4 minute. The region about the
larnyx and pharnyx IL the aeat of q
considerable swelling, which may
extend down toward the point Ol
the breast. The mucous membrane
In the larDyx and pharnyx becomes
swollen. and often to such an extent
that the respiration becomes roar.
ing, and may be followed by dysp'
nOea and suffOcatiOn."
DR.. Nygaard adds that the disease
usually lasts from Il few hours to
two or three days, and that recovery
is very rare.
DR.. Scruby will report his findings
to the Minnesota Bureau OF Animal
Industry and 1t will no doubt be
followed by vigorous measures FOL
the suppression Of the disease.
