the cattle raiser and the consumer OF
beef are concerned they are worse of
than before the injunction was placed
there is every Indication that after the
injunction the packers changed their
combining in advance their representa-
tiyes go into the markets every day,
and when one buys a hot of beef theirs
refrain from bidding against him.
Afterward they divide up the purchase
among themselves"
So declared Representative Martin
of South Dakota in the mouse. in
speaking on his resolution directing the
secretary of commerce and labor to in
vestigate the causes of the difference
which exists between the prices of live
cattle and dressed beef.
This method Mr.. Martin declared,
was a clear violation of the terms of
the Sherman snti trust law, which he
believed adequate 10 remedy the evil.
He paid his compliments to Senator
Foraker for introducing a bill in the
senate TO repeal the forfeiture clause
of the Sherman law, and gained
democratic applause by declaring that
instead of removing the clause 1t
should be enforced more vigorously.
Mr.. Martin related the experience of
stockmen in their efforts ito dispose Of
their stock OH the Chicago market.
One, ne mentioned, received a bid on a
train load of stock at South Onla ha.
He Odd not accept this bid, but his
cars We're all ticketed by some one
after he had refused the bid. When
he reached Chicago he could get no
other bid than the precise one made at
South Omaha. He determined not to
sell and had to wait for some time
until finally he accepted the bid of an
independent packer of Indiana.
Il am not one who goes into hy-
steria every time the word trust is
mentioned he continued. The trust
has come TO stay The question is will
they let the rest OF us stay?' He pre-
faced his remarks with a high tribute
TO Attorney General Knox. who he said
is every inch a lawyer and hero, and
he considered that he had seen the
most efficient attorney general the
country has had in the prosecution of
anti trust laws.

Proper Treatment Of Pneumonia.

trooper treatment OF PNEUMONIA
Pneumonia is too dangerous a dis
case for any one to attempt to doctor
himself, altho he may have the proper
remedies at hand. A physician should
always be called. 1t should be borne
In mind, however. that pneumonia al
ways results from cold or from an
attack of the grippe. and that by Civ
ing Chamberlain's Cough Remedy the
threatened attack of pneumonia may
be warded off. This remedy is also
used by physicians in the treatment of
pneumonia with the best results. DR..
w. ]. Smith, Of Sanders. Ala. who is
also druggist, says of it: Il have
been selling Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and prescribing it in my prac-
tice for the past six years. I use 1t in
cases of pneumonia and have always
gotten the best results Sold by all

Religions in the Eastern War.

War in the far east has its religious
no less than it's commercial and poll
itical significance. Broadly speaking,
the religious future of the orient seems
to be recognized by the denominations
al press of this country as one of the
stakes for which Russia and Japan
are playing, consciously or uncon-
sciously The immediate question IS.
of course, the religious future OF
Korea. so that the statement Of the
present religious condition of the her
init kingdom by the Rev. DR.. George
Heber Jones in the New York Tri-
bune is particularly interesting. Dr.
Jones has been stationed at Clhemulpo
since 1888, four years after the open
ing of Korea to mission work, as a
missionary of the Methodist Episcopal
church. He sums up the accomplish
ments of twenty years:
The present missionary forces in
Korea are grouped into four bodies:
Presbyterians, Methodists, 3 An
glicans, A Catholics. These four bod
les maintain a large staff of Ameri-
can and European workers, with
widely distributed native church of
fully $4,000 professed converts, who,
with the adherents, embracing in
Guirers and seekers after Christian
truth, attendants on the various con
gregations, relatives and friends of
Christians not yet i'll the church but
favorable to Christianity, make up a
total Christian population of 200, 900
