Packers in st. Joseph
Ask Exoneration


The President heard this morning that
St Joseph, No, st Jo," as Il Is low
ingiy called by those who live in the
State, or who are called there on bust
ness. kills 1000 cattle a day- ernplovs
10000 brawny worknen to KIN those 10
900 beeves, and distributes $4,000 900 a
month among the COW herders and COW
owners Of ten nearby States. Is It any
wonder. then. that the good folk OF The
city are all excited over these packing
house disclosures Is It any wonder
then that an earnest. eloquent enthu-
siastic delegation OF business men from
St 10 is in Washington for the pur-
pose of convincing the President. Con-
gress, and creation generally. that no
matter how dirty Chicago may be. Mis-
sourfs great western city IS clean-no
matter how bad the Chicago slaughter
houses are, St. JOS are good
Delegates Besiege President.
The President had hardly reached his
Office this morning before the St Jo
crowd stormed his sanctum- There vas

Krake, Commissioner of St Joseph's
Business Mems League; Z. A. King.

publisher Of the News and Press; Judge
r. f. Culver. and Congressmaa Frank
b. Fulkerson, and there might have
been many more had St 10 thought it
necessary 20 send them. But these six
were as good as host.
We told the President" said Mr..
Golding, who acted as spokesman In
the Executive Office. that we came
here not as packers or as business men
with any financial interest whatever in
the packinghouse line. but as repre-
seLtattves of st. Joseph. We know that
the slaughter house business of our
town is being conducted along sanitary
lines We know that there are no sc-aps
led to the customers of our packers and
no Nth IS allowed 10 endanger the
health OF our workmen- Our packing
houses are all as clean as they can be
made; our workmen are healthy, decent
FARMER boys, and not the rif-ran and
scum or the foreign immigration
ST. 10 a Model Place.
If things are as bad as they say they
are up in Chicago, the whole outfit up
there ought TO be dumped into the lake
As 10 that we do not know and do not
particularly care. What we are inter
S-tsd n most vitality is the good name
Of St Joseph These horrible stories
of dirt and disease in Chicago have
naturally had their effect upon the
whole country and people are even now
looking with suspicion in our direction
We want them to know that the bricks
that have been thrown at Chicago have
not hit US and that no one has any
right to throw them in our direction
We asked the President II he had any
doubt of what We said 10 investigate
us from one end of the packing house
quarter to the other. All we asked was
a declaration of some sort on the part
OF the Government giving us a clean
bill Of health TO the world. The Presi-
dent said that he was glad 70 talk with
us on the subject, and was very much
pleased TO learn that we had such
model establishments. He said that it
was his intention of making public in
the near future some sort of a list
which would show the public the good
and the bad packing houses"

they spread the story in their newspapers that
such proposal had been made, and thus 1t got
abroad 1t never had any foundation of any kind,
but what actually did occur was rather interesting
in it's way.
When Secretary Taft and his party arrived at
the ball the Sultan and his staff, about dozen
in all were grouped on side of the hall Intina-
ton shortly given that he desired to pay a
compliment of some kind to Miss Roosevelt. The
Sultan took the center of the floor followed by the
interpreter and native bearing a handsome saddle
in red leather. The Sulu Moros are famous workers
in leather and this saddle with its trappings
elaborately ornamented and the finest of its kind.
Miss Roosevelt went forward and was greeted by
His Majesty with an elaborate bow. The inter

so the charming sartoria variety of the party
was still preserved The ballroom was the second
floor of the Army and Navy Club, comfortable
and fairly spacious wooden building stretching out
over the water 1t was tastefully decorated and
the moon and sea outside visible from the balcony

which has been widely unsupported IN various
newspapers that the actual facts ought to be told
A Dersonaqe of great interest to all the Moros,
and indeed to the foreign multitudes throughout
the whole tour, was Miss Roosevelt. The interest
in her. and the eyes directed at her undoubtedly
exceeded the attention paid to Secretary TAFT
Two newspaper orrespondents from Manila at this
ball thought it a clever feat of journalistic enter
prise to induce the Sultan to offer his hand and
throne to the daughter of the President, and made

could be secured with other kinds of flowers. For
example, the everyday white hydrangea could be
made to yield pink blossoms by watering the plant

found best to employ white flowers, because, hav

any tint which might be communicated to them by
the ingenious artfCe described
When publication IS made in regard to this inter

of odd and unnatural tlnts to harmonic with certain
decorations for receptions and teas, the florist has
employed a process that differs largely from the
one lust described. He Is inclined TO cast mystery
about the production of these CuriOsties; but the
process is so simple and the materials used are so
easily obtained that anyone may experiment with
a certainty of success.
A solution is prepared by pouring boiling water
over a small quantity of common dye the proper
tions being cup of water to the size OF pin-head
of color The mixture thus formed is well stirred 10
produce a thorough distribution of the dye 1t IS
then allowed to cool when the stems of the white
flowers are placed in it, and the sap running up
ward, carries the color through the veins to the
petals. Only freshly cut flowers will drink up the
fluid in this manner, since the sap does not flow
after the flower has been cut for several hours. IL
IS necessary also that the solution should be weak
the color not likely to be absorbed II dense
and not well distributed. When the flowers are
not perfectly fresh and will not absorb the dye
through the stems, they may be dipped in the
solution which IS entirely satisfactory, though it
does not give the evenness of color that NAV be
obtained by the former means In either case.
