An anonymous correspondent of an
exchange takes very gloomy view of
the beef business from the standpoint
of the consumer. According to his fig
ures. the shortage of good beef cattle
this year will be from 500, 600 to 700,
600 head, and out of this and the indi
cations for the future be deduces the
statement that "cheap meat is a thing
of the past. Z" It is true that the con-
sumner in centers of population is just
now paying more for his beef than he
has been paying for some time, and
conditions point to the probability that
he will have to continue to do so. But
no such dismal outlook confronts the
people as this prophet would have us
believe. The population of the United
States has a number of times gone
through period when cattle were sell
ing much higher than now and when
meats were costing the people much
greater figures, and still we didn't
starye, nor did we meet with anything
special IN the nature of disaster. Ma

PEOPLE WHO GRUMBLE.

The Marietta Journal is right,
in stating that some people will
''grumble" till doomsday, but a
great many grumble and com
plain about hard times merely
from force of habit and because
the same thing is done by others.
1t is really something of fad
with may people to talk about
hard times. They do it without
stopping to think whether their
own business is in such shape as
to justify their complaints. This
is wrong. A man who is always
talking and harping about hard
times hurts his own business and
he hurts that of his neighbor.
This is especially true, if the
grumbler is a business man. 1t
furnishes an excuse to the man
who owes him to put him off, by
taking up the cry of ''hard
times" With the merchant grum-
ling over "hard times" a man
with money i'll his pocket will buy
on credit, rather than part with
the cash. If business men would
only open their eyes to these facts
and quit talking about dull times,
conditions would begin to i'm
prove at once. The farmers who
come to town would return home,
telling their neighbors that affairs
were improving in the city and
that there was no more talk of
hard times. A few hints on this
line may accomplish good results,
except with those who will keep
on "grumbling till doomsday."-

Two remarkably successful bus
mess men who had big ideals and
worked hard to achieve them and
erect lasting monuments to them
selves, were Alexander 7. Stewart,
the merchant, and George M. Pull
man, the car builder. Mr.. Stew
art amassed a great fortune and
built up the greatest retail store
in the United States, which he.
housed in a marble palace in New
York. When he died he left his
business in fiourishing condition
but within a comparatively short
time the concern had gone to
smash, the millions were dissipa-
ted and the marble palace was
mortgaged. Mr.. Pullman wished
to create as a monument to him.
self a model village. He made
one near Chicago and named it
after himself. 1t was owned by
his car company, but recently the
courts have held that the car
company had no right. to own and
deal in real estate in that manner,
and that the model village, must
be dispensed with. 1t will, there,
fore, be sold, and will pass into
private hands. And thus fades
the dream of Pullman, as that of
Stewart faded.

For half century Calhoun

Gently it was decided to establish
bank at Hardin, the county seat.
The contract for the building was
let to an Alton firm. Among the
employees they took with them to
Hardin was Samuel Washington
a negro. AS soon as he appeared
on the streets Sam was ordered to
leave the place on pain of death.
Saturday evening a mob arrived
with clubs and, provided with
ropes, started out determined to
lynch Washington. The negro
fled, pursued by the mob until
the Illinois river was reached.
Without hesitation he plunged
into the stream and swan to the
other shore. The mob stood on
the bank bowling and cursing as
they saw their intended prey es-

There has been hardly shading
of rates charged by the govern
ment-owned railways in Germany
during the last twenty years.
From Breslau to Berlin, 222
miles, the rate is little over Is
cents per 100 pounds on grain.
From Chicago to New York,
nearly 1000 miles, the rate on
the same class of freight is but 10
or y cents per hundred pounds.
This may be taken as illustrating
the difference, to the patron, be-
tween government and private
railroads.

.swHAT FOOLS WE MoRTALs BE- >

UhAA EOVLc WE MUhIALS DE-
A striking example Of the pride,
vanity and deceit of the human
heart is furnished in the case of
the late Calvin S. Brice, who died
recently in New York after being
i'll only short time with pneu-
monia. This gentlemen was re-
puted to be very wealthy, the low
est estimate placed upon his pos
sessions being 81, 100000; and by
others he was considered to be
worth $40, 100000 or more. His
widow now alleges that Mr.. Br;ce
had no real estate, and all the
personal property she has been
able to find is valued at only
something over 100000. AS Mr..
Brice was largely interested ip
railroad and other corporation
stock and bonds, and as the value
of this class of. securities is very
variable and sometimes fictitious.
| Mrs. Brice's estimate as to the
value her. husbands estate may
be excessive and the deceased may
have died with practically moth
ing.
And yet the Ohio ex-senator,
in his life time, lived like a prince
among men. 1t is doubtful if the
nobility of the old world, or in
deed some of it's royalty, pursue
lives OF greater luxury, pomp and
magnificence than did he. His
box, in the Metropolitan opera
house in New York, cost him, we
believe, $4,000 annually, and a
single entertainment would fire.
quently cause an expense of many
thousands of dollars. We are not
aware of any benefactions of his
in the way of donations to chari-
table, educational and religious
objects, but in the way of provid-
ing pleasure for himself ard
friends in a lavish manner, he.
perhaps, could not be surpassed
by any other person in America,
and IT he ever was i'll reality a
wealthy man it was doubtless in
this way that his money was dis
sipated. We said in the begin
ming of this piece that Mr.. Brice's
case is an example of the pride,
vanity and deceit of the human
heart. In this, however, we may
be mistaken, and the deceased
may from the sheer generosity of
his nature and with no intention
of being ostentatious and deceit
full, have squandered his means
simply for the pleasure it afforded
himself and others.
Still how often, even in cir
cumscribed sphere, do we see the
parallel of such conduct. The de-
sire to be considered consequential
is so deeply imbedded in the very
fabric of nature that many of us
will pursue lives that are persona
fed lies in order that we may
have the adulation and homage of
the world, and be in a position
to assume superiority over our
friends and acquaintance. How
often is gorgeous entertainment
succeeded by heart pangs and a
cruel stinting in the necessaries of
life; while a smiling exterior, like
the Spartan boy who stole the fox,
covers a sorrow that gnaws at our
very vitals.

One argument, and very strong
one which is being advanced in
advocacy of the admission of wood

the fact that the pulp makers of
this country are rapidly destroy

the consumption of wood for paper

that each year 625 square miles of
