HoG AND CATTLE EXPORTS.

Exports Of domestic products from
the principal customs districts of the
United States during June reached a
total of ISL ,6oS,S22, which was some
what smaller than during the month OF
May, when it amounted to $52,11S,955,
and it was smaller than during June,
1905, when the amount was $685. 90
For the twelve months ending with
the billion-do dollar mark, the total be-
Ing sS90.57S,504, which was a gain OF
s139,11S,750 over the preceding twelve
months period. This gain is due prin-
cipally to Increased sales Of wheat.
flour, corn, oats and barley. There was
gain of 100000 in provisions, which
included animal and dairy products.
During June cattle, hogs and sheep
exports increased over the preceding
month, the total being S3,s1s,531.
Breadstuffs amounted to $7,396,923 and
provisions s15,365,27S.
There was a decrease in the number
of cattle, hogs. and sheep exported
during the month, but the value of cat
tie increased considerably, making the
total value for all greater. The num-
Der of cattle sent out was 46.963 head,
against 54170 head during June, 1903.
The number Of hogs sent out was q
1S1 head as compared with 3,477 head
during June, 1906 and the number Of
sheep was s,176 head, as against 49,
G2S in June, 1905.
1T is evident from the figures given
by the bureau of statistics that the
packing house scandals Nave effected
our beef and hog products. During
June, 1905, there were exported canned
beef valued at $619,83S. In June this
year these exports amounted to $2s1.-
ia. There was loss of $4,000 in
the value of cured beef exported, $780,
900 in hams, sls0,OoO in pork and Sal
600 in lard These losses were more
than offset, fortunately, by a gain of
$751;. 900 in the export of fresh beef and
$S36,000 in bacon.

TYPOGRAPHICAL ERRORS? ?"

lipgton Hawke'ye, Burlington, / owa.
Dear Sirs: I was somewhat surprised
to read my letter to the Perkins man.
ayers in your paper yesterday morn
ing. The letter was entirely personal
and was not intended for publication.
I find that there are some omissions
from what intended to state. In the
paragraph that speaks OF using brute
force an entirely different meaning was
conveyed. I do not wish to be UNDER
stood as advising brute force to control
the next state convention. The letter
you published should have read:
Some, of the -Cumnins papers have
stated that it would be equal to brute
force for the standpatters to press.
their claims in the pending contests. II
lit is brute force, and you look upon it
as brute force, for the standpatters
to assert their rights in what fairly
belongs to them and, IL honest meth
DDS Of getting a square deal means
brute force and IL it takes this so-call-
ed brute force to get rid of the dem-
ocratic missletoe that has become fast
ened onto the republican party, THEN
USE BRUTE FORCE"
In the next to the last paragraph
where l am quoted as saying Cum
minis rascals" [ should be quoted as
saying "Cummf1s rulers"
1t is certainly far from me to adj
wise a South American revolution in
the next convention of Iowa republic
ans-I do not and never have advised
brute force in the sense that may be
construed from the letter that was
published in Wednesdays Hawkeye.
WALLACE E. SHERLOCK.
The phrase "Cummins rascals" Is
easily typograp hical error for Cum
minis rulers" In this, and the other
points to which Mr. Sherlock refers, he
is, of course, entitled to the correction
he makes. 1t is not reasonable to be-
lieve that the public will understand
Mr.. Sherlock to be in favor of brute
force" in control of the state conven-
ton. Nobody wants that. Iowa repub-
leans must adjust their difficulties
peaceably, legitimately and amicably.
There are other years and other du-
ties for the republican party than the
present.
