The inhibitory measures in Germany
against the importation of foreign cat
tie and meat products have greatly ad-
vanced the price of meat in the coun-
try, causing a considerable reduction
in the consumption thereof, as the
middle and working classes can not
afford to pay the high prices demand
ed. In consequence of this, the con-
sumption of fresh, dried ard sailed
fish has largely increased.

The steady improvement of recent
years in the: methods and processes
Of American wooden mills has brought
the domestic fabrics to standard Of
quality and style which the English
manufacturer frankly admits is nearly,
If not quite, as good as his own. The
hope has been that the trade lost in
the United States would be made up
elsewhere, but this anticipation has
failed to realize.

Set to Watch Members ct ment with force
Congress of sleuths like I'M
to the Pinkertons. The fact il, that the
bureau has no legitimate functions ex-
cept to hunt out counterfeiters and pun
of calling on the force for all sorts of
outside work for which they are no
more fitted than the force of inspectors
in the post Office department under Mr..
Bristow would be fitted for general po-
lice work.
Ever since Cleveland's day the secret
service men have been employed to
watch the president and ward on
cranks. They have gone out Of their
way to investigate. other departments of
the government than the treasury, and
there have been times even when the
men were set to work logging members
of congress. ~,
But the appropriation for the service
reads specifically ,'"$125, 900 for the pre-
vention Of counterfeiting." That was
put in for special purpose ten or q
dozen years ago, so that there should
be no misunderstanding Of the duties
of the force. Successive secretaries Of
the treasury have tried in vain to have
the form amended SO as to give the bu-
reau greater legal latitude, but com
gress has always refused, because it does
not believe in secret funds for any pur-s
pose. ~ 5.eE:!,.: +. .sz.5zas + u

Cannon, are preparing to curb the ac-..

mediate passage of measure about
which he knows a great deal and other
senators know little, that bill is pretty
sire to 60 through without the formal
fly of debate and bys=unanimous con-
sent.
There are not many senators who
have this confidence of their COL
leagues, and that Warren is one of
them is a tribute to the absolute sim
cerity with which his public conduct
is characterized.
Warren was born in Massachusetts.
and got his first training in the Berk-
shires. He was farmers boy, and he
had to fight his own way. He went to
Wyoming and grew up with the coun-
try, and now he is reputed to be one of
the wealthiest men in the state, the
owner of great tracts of land and of
great quantities 'of city real { estate.
He is the principal citizen Of the state,
and would be such even If he did not
occupy seat in the senate. He has
a way of getting there" which i'm
presses his contemporaries. That is the
secret of his success.
Once when he lost trunk coming
from Cheyenne to Washington the rail-
road was Indifferent about finding it
for him. He ordered man to watch
the yard at Cheyenne for weeks until
one Of the freight cars Of the offending
road appeared. He attached it immedi-
ately, and did not release it till his
trunk was found.

Obnoxious Aspect of Teddy's ConVen

A coon" CORE gponIcnto Of the wash
ington Post is highly clated over the
treatment accorded the negro al the re-
cent National Republican Convention
and expresses himself ia the following
language. which within itself is enough
TO turn the stomach Of any ordinary
Southern
"At the Republican convention the
coIorcd man was treated as a comphn-
Jon, friend and brother. There he VAS
made to feel as il he we're not only a
political, but a social equal. The dele
gates followed the example Of Nj be-
loved President, Theodore Roosevelt
| who teaches that the colored man de-
serves to be treated as a social equal.
To emphasize this fact he had the

it viii so encourage the colorcd men
that we will demand that Prof. Booker
Washington shall be the Republican
