The Washington Post remarks
that DIR. Thomas E. Wilson, general
manager OF the Nelson Morris Com
pany. who represented all the Chi
cago packers before the agricultural
committee Of the House last Wed.
nesday, does NOE look to be more
than thirty years OF age, and had he
not admitted shat he had been in the
packlng-house business twenty
years he might be mistaken for n
theological student" Judging by
recent recent revelations, tits quite
possible that Mr.. Wilson is familiar
with the book OF Ezekiel.

II is stated that the Neill Reynolds
report on the Beef Trust horrors
has already seriously injurd the
American meat trade abroad, thai
the sale OF American canned meats
has practically stopped altogether
in London, and that throughout BEL
GUM the market for our lard and
other prepared animal products has
been killed.
Nor is this all. in New York and
other cities q decrease in the use of
meats is very apparent, and this
is especially noticeable at public
restaurants, where diners always
look with more or less suspicion at
the dishes prepared beyond their
ken.
Such results are perfectly natural

Republican inconsistency

The Republicans of the present
day have forgotten what the found
ers OF their party declared in 1860.
when they were seeking theapprov-
al of the American people. At that
time they did nos attribute the
growth and prosperity Of the nation
70 protectionism as they now do,
but TO the true causes of ooth-that
is, TO the union Of the States and the
consequent freedom of trade among
them. They declared: That 70
the union OF the States this Nation
owes its unprecedented increase In
population, its surprising develop.
ment Of material resources, it's rapid
augmentation Of wealth iss happi-
ness at home and les honor abroad. -
This wise declaration has been
studiously avoided in all its recent
platforms, and the exact contrary
has been asserted. la 1892, the
party said: I'VE maintain THAI che
prosperous condition of our country
Is due to the wise revenue legisla-
tion of the last Republican Congress. "
For q generation or more the ad-
vocates Of protectionism who con-
troll that party and plumber people
OF all parties, have ascribed the
continuance Of prosperity TO it's own
legislation thus giving the lie di-
rect to the Republicans of 1860 !
