VIII chicagoans Eat Horse Meat7
Chicago papers have been report
ing recently that a German was try
ing to establish in Chicago a plant
for the killing and packing OF horses
for domestic and foreign consumption
It has been predicted that he would
fail in his undertaking, and 1t is prob
able that he will. At present there is q
city law prohibiting this business in
Chicago. Doubtless horse meat is as
clean as any other kind Of meat, but
that IL not the only thing TO be con
sidered. II the practice Of selling
horsefiesh for food once became law.
ful. It is about certain that 1t would
injure the trade now existing in beef
We have had our experience with
oleomargarlne and flled cheese Had
they been always sold under thelI
own names little harm would have re-
suited to the interests OF the butter
makers or the cheese-makers. But
they we're sold as pure butter and full
cream cheese. II horsenesh we're
always sold for horsefesh and always
eaten as such, the objections to the
practice Of selling it would be less
numerous than they are now. But
we are morally certain that II the
practice were permitted. horsehesh
would soon be discovered being
palmed on as something else. both to
the local consumer and the foreign
buyer. Legitimate trade would simply
have one more fraud with which to
contend. Moreover, It Is doubtful II
the horses that went to supply this
trade would belong to that class
known a. healthy" Healthy horses
that are cheap enough to be eaten
are very scarce. The few crippled old
and lamed horses that could be Sc
cured would hardly suffice to keep
q good sized plant running. There Is
a certain foreign element in Chicago
that might be satisfied to eat horse
flesh II they could get It at a very
low price. This element is not, how
ever, sufficiently large to justify
Americans in jeopardizing their i'm
mense meat trade to cater to. We
think it viii be a long time before
Chicagoans get down to horse meat

In an address recently. Secretary
Of Agriculture Wilson spoke Of the
aourishing condition OF the horse bus
mess at the present time He pre-
sented some statistics IN which he
showed that in 1858 the total number
Of horses in the country was $685.
$40, valued at 2.696,226. In 1892
the number had increased to 15.lsS.
140 and the high-water valuation
mark OF s1.007. .500,636 was reached.
There were a million more horses IN
the country the next year, but their
value had declined, and a decline both
in number and value set in and con.
tinued until 1897 when the former
was 14.364667 and the latter only
s452. .647 1886, showing a shrinkage in
value OF more than SO per cent in five
years. In fact, the value OF the IA.
364,396 horses IN the United States
in 1897 was only s2O,000O00 more
than the value placed upon 5,756,940
horses in 1868. From 1893 20 1897

country was smaller than It had
been for eight years. but the value Of
the stock advanced to s47s.s62. .4O7;
the following year the value Of about
the same number advanced to $511,-
