WHY NOT KEEP BRISTOW?"
PRICE BAKING POWDER Co.,
CHICAGO.

The Kansas City Star says: ''The re.
tirement OF Joseph l.. Bristow to private
life ends an official career as brilliant as
it has been honorable. The fourth assist.
ant postmaster general might have been
content to remain mere dispenser Ct
patronage aud manager of routine work.
Had he been so disposed he could have
served out his time in peace and without
distinction. Bristow is not that sort of a
man. His honesty is of that aggressive
type which is go sorely needed in politics.
So President Mckinley, with that keen
Judgment OF men VIII ca so often char.
acterized his important appointments,
selected him to Investigate the postal
frauds in Cuba. His success in this i'm.
portant work led to his assignment by
President Roosevelt to uncover dishor.
esty in the postoilice department at
Washington. HE successful efforts in
this work, which he carried on in utter
fearlessness of political influence, are
familiar TO all newspa per readers. Then
followed his recent Investigation OF trans
portation conditions at Panama, which
resulted in ending the Pacific mail mon
opoly-another triumph and efficiency
and justice over pull AS has been said
Mr.. Bristow might have remained com.
fortably quiescent in his department
His refusal to do so has made his eight
years. service of remarkable value to the
nation and a source Of pride to the state
of his adoption"
Why should such man be permitted
to retire from the public service? Many
of Mr.. RCosevelt's friends claims that he
has found it difficult to obtain for the
public service men upon whose ability
and fidelity he could depend. Is it not
strange, then, that the PRESIDENT permits
so capable and faithful man as Joseph
L. Bristow to retire?

INSPECTION AT THE MILL.

The plan Of the cargo branch OF the Pa
cific Coast Lumber Manufacturers Asso.
citation to have lumber inspected at the
mill is good one and should have the
support Of every manufacturer of lumber
on the Pacific Coast. 1t does not seem
right that lumber SHOULD be rejected at
destination after freight is paid, and with
no possible chance OF dsposing OF the re.
jeced lumber. 1t is contrary to any
class of business. Lumber should be
sold free on board at the mill, and the
rejection should be made at the point of
shipment and not at destination,
Tallymen are not infallible and no
matter how closely watched, mistakes
will be male. If in the hands OF com.
petent inspector, lumber not up TO grade
can be detected and rejected before ex.
pensive freight charges are added to Il g
original cost, and the buyer will have a
guarantee that he is obtaining what he
orders. The losses on reclamations yea,.
ly run up into the thousands, ON both
rail and cargo business, and with the
small margins obtained this cuts quite
hole in the net profits at the end of the
year. The plan is simple in operation
and will undoubtedly be adopted by
every cargo mill on the Pacific coast.

The cattle run last week was 10000 head,
a decrease of 1900 head from previous
week. The proportion of beef steers
continued light, and receipts from the

of quarantine cattle held up heavy. The
distribution as to class suited the pack

gain of 10 to % cents on killing cattle,
stockers and feeders 10 to 10 higher
The supply today is heavy at 1900 head
here, half-of which is in the quarantine
division. The market averaged about
steady today, some of the good native
steers, heifers and cows selling strong to
a little higher, while quarantine steers
sold steady to 10 lower. Some of the fed
