The Men It Hurts.

Upton Sinclair author of The
Jungle" has received a pathetic
letter from one of his friends in
the Chicago meat-packing houses
The writer says: ''As usual. the
poor workingman gets the worst
of it. They have taken away the
old aprons and overalls from the
men-the mems own property
mind you-and destroyed them
and compelled the men to buy
new. That is almost impossible,
as this is the slack season and
most of the men are not making
enough to live on" The letter
then tells how of 81 pay enve-
lopes gathered up the highest
was for $40, and the lowest II
cents, the average being So 80.
The writer goes on, And the
men who have to keep families on
this have to get all clean clothes
Some of the brighter men under
stand your motive, but most of
them curse you Can you
not write letter to some paper
explaining that you did not mean
to harm the men?"
AS the Post urged the other
day, Packingtown presents a
greater human problem than it
does a meat problem. Inspec-
tors will help US to get pure
meat, but who is there to see that
a multitude of poor people are
enabled to lead decent lives?
Only by the best thought and ef-
fort Of all of us can the greater
problem be solved.

Jolly 4, 1776.

John Adams on July 5-1776
wrote the following letter to his
wife:
Yesterday the greatest ques-
ton was decided that ever was
debated in America, and greater,
perhaps never was or will be de-
decided among men. A resolu-
ton was passed, without one dis
senting colony, that these United
States are, and of right ought to
be free and independent States.
The day is passed. The Fourth
of July, 1875, will be a memorial
epoch in the history of America.
| am apt to believe that it will be
celebrated by succeeding genera
tons as the great anniversary
festival. It ought to be COM
memorated as the day of deliver
auce, by solemn acts of devotion
to Almighty God. It ought to be
solemnized with pomp, shows,
games, sports, gus, bells, bon
fires, and illumination, from one
end of the continent to the other,
from this time forward, forever.
Yon will think me transported
with enthusiasm, bat I am not.
I am we'll aware of the toll and
blood and treasure which it will
cost to maintain this declaration
and support and defend these
States; yet thro all the gloom I
can see that the end is worth
more than all the means, and
that posterity will triumph, al
tho you and I may rue, which I
hope we shall not.'

Swallowing Dirt.

This is by Bob Burdette, the
we'll known humorist:
my homeless friend with the
chromatic nose, while you are
stirring up the sugar in a TO-
cent glass of gin, let me give you
a fact to wash down with it.
You may say you have longed
for years for the free, indepen-
dent life of a farmer, but you
have never been able to get
enough money to buy a farm
But there is where you are mis-.
taken. For some years you have
been drinking a good improved
farm at the rate of one hundred
square feet at a gulp. If you
doubt this statement, figure it
out for yourself. An acre OF
land cotains 49,, 500 square feet.
Estimating, for convenience, the
land at $43.56 an acre, you will
see that it brings the land just
one mill per square foot. Now
pour down the fiery dose and i'm.
agine you are swallowing a straw.
berry patch. Call in FIVE of your
friends and have them help you
gulp down that five hundred foot
garden. Get on prolonged
spree some day and see how long
it viii take to swallow a pasture
land to feed COW. Put down
that glass of gin; there is dirt in
it-three hundred feet of good,
rich dirt, worth $43 Sc per acre"

clapping their hands, swinging their

early on the 23d, meeting with no
serious accident until early that
morning. Private Frazie, WAGNER
Of Company A, while attending to
his mules, was by one of them pushed
overheard and drowned before as
sistance could reach him. His body
was not recovered, ard probably be-
came food for the fish. Thus an
other good man was lost to his regi-
ment and his country. Several hours
were spent in disembarking and un-
loading forage, and at 2 o'clock, p. NJ, ,
we left the boats. One boat officer

called us.

As we marched through this beau.
tiful Southern city on that pleasant,
bright spring afternoon, solemn, ST.
lent sadness was depicted in the faces
of the few white men that appeared
on the sidewalks. Doors and win
dows OF stores and dwelling houses
were principally closed. Feminine
curiosity caused few ladies to peep
from behind window shades. But
hundreds Of smiling "darkeys" could
be seen peepiDg around corners, and
crowding into the unfrequented
alleys, silently making demonstra-
tions Of joyous welcome to us.
We pitched our camp near the
Murfreesboro Pike, two miles from
Nashville, where our three regiments
were joined by Colonel Dufield and
the Ninth Michigan Infantry. Col.
Duflield Immediately took command
Of the brigade. He proved a strict
disciplinarian During the six days
we remained here we were not idle.
There was vigorous drilling six hours
Of the day, winding up with dress pa
