Department of Agriculture is Advised by
Prominent Chicago Packing Company
OF the Discrimination by Great Britain
Sequel to New Orleans Incident.
Washington, April 1.-THE depart
ment of agriculture has received q
dispatch from prominent packing
company of Chicago announcing that
it has just been advised that the En-
glish government has excluded al
beef except home-bred from the Brit
3ish army contracts. This, it is
stated, is to. be effective June 1 next
The Chicago concern has asked the
agricultural department. for any as.
sistance it can FENDER. 1t has pointed
out that the action of TIE government
is a severe blow to American beet
and cattle exporters and producers
and means not alone the loss in govern.
ment trade, but it is feared it will
serve toward causing prejudice of the
people of Great Britain against the
beef and ,cattle of this country
No report of this contemplated
move has reached the department. ac.
cording to statements of officials
Steps have been taken, however, look.
ing to acquiring whatever informa.
ton it is possible to get.
To demonstrate the Importance OF
the move said to be contemplated il
is pointed out that the value of our
exports of live animals to Great Brit.
ain amounts to S40.O00.OOO. while. the
total of animal products exported
from She United States4t to Great Brit
ain is stated to be, in round NUN bers
S2o0,000,00O. 1t is pointed out here
that this proposed embargo may really
be sequel. in greater or less de
gree, to the, proceeding instituted al
New Orleans against shipments OF
horses and mules from that port fol
use in the South African campaign
While this is. of course. merely con
iectural. it is very strongly hinte6
that the New Orleans incident prob
ably is the directing source Of inspira
tion for the step. 1t is pointed out
that if the English really decided tt
take the action reported in the ad
vices Just received the British nigh,
turn to Australia for their meats. Il
Is claimed however. that meats can
not be gotten there in as good quality
noras cheaply as in the United States

we already have a building in every>way
suited for public library and reading
room which will supply the wants of
our'city for many years to come. What
we have needed for many years is now
to be fulfilled unless the people of Deni-
son fail to do their duty, thing which
never yet has happened. 1t means an
added interest in our public library and
a new incentive to the reading public;
it means that more than ever Denison
is to become the educational as we'll as
the financial center of this section of
Iowa. The idea of placing small libra
ries of suitable books in the school
rooms is an admirable one and no better
plan could have been devised to improve
our already splendid school system The
offer to the teachers of Crawford county
is indeed most liberal one. The
proposition is that the generous donor
will give $l00 this year toward the
founding of a library for the exclusive
use of the teachers of the county and
fifty dollars a year for eight succeeding
The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1901-04-12

years providing the teachers of the
county will do the same, This offer is
good until after the meeting of the next
teachers institute and it is probable
that the library will be given a place in
the Office of the county superintendent
so that all teachers may have free acs
cess to it. The gentleman who makes
these splendid offers to Denison and to
the teachers of Crawford county is a
personal friend of Prof. II. Fl. Savage,
superintendent of the Denison schools,
and it was through his efforts that the
mlnificent gifts were secured. Denison
owes deep debt Of gratitude not only
to the generous donor but to Mr.. Saw
age. Now let all work together to Sc
cure that additional $4,000.

Omaha, April 12.-Senator NIillard

private secretary. Mr.. Haynes has
been resident of Omaha many years.
In 1881 he started newspaper work
with the Omaha Bee. Then for three

THE WAR SONGS.
Large Audience Delighted by the Patri-
otic Program Given by Home Talent.

i otic Program Given by Home Talent.
The Sons of Veterans and affiliated
orders and the musicians and enter
tainers of Denison are to be congratu-
lated upon the unqualified success OF
the War Song. concert given at the
opera house on Tuesday evening. The
audience was large considering the
fact, that there have been such a
multiplicity of benefits of all kinds
given in Denison recently. About $50
was netted for the Memorial Univer-
sity at Mason City, and if other camps
do as we'll, there will be little difficulty
about raisingsthe funds necessary for
the big undertaking. The program
was varied and consisted of the very
best talent of Denison. We have often
said that no other town of itssize could
show so much ability in musical and
similar lines than does Denison, and
each succeeding entertainment serves
but to strengthen that belief. Miss
Carrie Chaplin, the winner Of the Ell
dora contest, was accorded an ovation
upon her appearance on the stage.
showing the hearty appreciation OF her
efforts by the, Denison people. Every
number was encored and was fully
worshy of it. The stereopticon views
by which the songs were illustrated,
were very good and added much to the
interest of the program.

DEATH OF SENATOR RUSSELL.
One Of the Leading Attorneys Of Western
Iowa Dies at Jefferson.

Iowa Dies at Jefferson.
On Wednesday morning. the 10th
inst, at Z o'clock, the Hon j. j. Russell
of Jefferson passed to his reward.
His death was wholly unexpected, for
while he was still suffering from the eff.
fleets of an attack of la grippe, no one
thought of, much less expected, his sud
den taking off
Mr.. Russell was born at or near West
field, Mass, and at an early age moved
to, Sterling, ILL.,, from which place he
entered the United States Volunteer In
fantry and served till the close Of the
war, coming out with the rank of cap:
tain.
Himself and his regiment were with
Grant at Vicksburg, Donaldson and
Shiloh, and during his whole military
career he took part in the severest bat
tlesiof that struggle. Immediately fol
lowing the close Of the war he came to
Greene county, locating at Jefferson
and engaged in the practice of law.
He was q profound thinker, of bright,
analytical turn of mind, and one who
ret lined position in the very first rank
of Iowas foremost lawyers
For seyera terms he served as State
Senator, and later as Secretary of the
Iowa Soldiers Home Commission at
1Marshalltown, and at all times took a
prominent and active part in the civic
affairs of his home town
In politics he was republican until
the famous Cleveland Blaine campaign,
when the high tariff plank of the repub,
lican platform drove him into the dem
. ocratic party.
He was the ideal citizen soldier of the
Republic and always took a prominent
part in Grand Army circles, Next to
lincoln he regarded Cleveland as one of
the great minds this country has pro-
duced.
Mr.. Lally of this place, read law in
4 his Office and always looked to him as a
friend almost as father-the attach
ment between the two being of the
closest and most atfectionate character.
Judge Conner, who was District
Judge for several years, speaks in the
highest and most commendable terms
of Mr.. Russell's ability as lawyer, his
standing, character and integrity as a
man. He leaves wife and one child to
>mourn his loss
The funeral will occur on Sunday,
the l4th inst, from the home of Dr.
Enfield. Judge Conner and Mr. Lally
will attend the funeral from this place,
the latter being one of the pail bearers.
