Congress starts ill as though it ex-
 pected to push business and after the 1 Christmas holidays we may look for
 considerable of interest. It is prac- tically settled that the ship subsidy bill will go through. This is about
 the only piece of legislation on whose fate the various critics are agreed.
 says Washington writer. Next to
 that in order of interest comes the in
 hertance tax bill, but that of course
 has not yet been formulated and it's
 fate at this brief session is very
 problematic. The Philippine tariff
 bill Is of course still resting in com
 mittee in the senate. and an effort
 will be made to get it out and start it
 on it's way back to the house, but 1t
 is a little more than doubtful if ac-
 ton can be secured on it at this ses-
 sion. Lingering always in the back
 ground. there is the river and harbor appropriation bill. This. if passed.
 will carry s50,OCo,OOO and Mir Burton
 of Ohio, the chairman of the river and harbor committee declares him. self very much in hopes that some thing can he done with it. The river and harbor congress will hold it's next
 meeting in Washington this winter. and 1t has outlined a systematic plan of river and harbor improvements.
 which will call for an annual appro- priation of S5O,OOo.0o0 each year for the next eleven years. It is claimed that the money would be we'll spent and that 1t could be more economicai- ly spent if there was some assurance that the annual appropriation was a
 fixture. and that the money could be relied on tO carry on the work with out interruption. Currency legisla- ton has a possibility but hardly probability. The banking interests of the whole country are agreed on q plan of currency reform. and if this were q long session a bill would stand very fair chance of passing. but with the multitude of other things to do this legislation will probably have to wait. One thing Is assured. and that is that there will be no tariff re- vision during this session. Speaker Cannon is against it. the great indus trial interests of the country IS a whole are very much against it. and time is against it. which fs the most important of all If the Philippine tariff is revised even on A basis of a P per cent reduction in duties 1t will l be quite as much as can be expected

There are in the United States, ac- cording to Golfers Weekly, Ill.,
 500,000 buildings, valued at $14,- 500. 100000. In 1905, which was a normal year. $500, ,000.O0 was spent for new buildings, and 10000, 900 worth of old buildings were burned up. Over $500, 100000 was paid for fighting fires and $195,000,00O in fire insurance premiums, of which some $95,O00,000 was paid back by the companies for losses. Hence it cost more to burn part of the old buildings and protect the rest from burning than it did to put up all of the new ones, and that was in a nor maj year. This year is not normal, as San Francisco has raised the fire losses to $500.000,O00, to say noth- ing of what may be added. Accord ing to Golfers, the $500, 100000 worth of buildings which have burn ed down would have cost only S50.- 900. 900 more to have been made ab- ireproof, and for the extra $50, ,OOO,O 900 the s5O0,OO0,OOO could have been saved.

 The enumeration of local school children, in Hartford, between the ages of four and sixteen years, shows gratifying increase over the total of last year. The total for the pres ent year foots up 19,252, an increase of ASA over the year 1905. when the enumeration aggregated 1S,SlS. The different school districts with the exception of the Brown, show an in- creased attendance for the current school year Assuming that there are four adults for every school child and applying this ratio to the total enumeration, the population of Hart ford, proper, is a6,260.
 It is right that ice dealers should have fair profit in their business. Their stockholders are entitled to reasonable annual dividend and their employees are likewise entitled to gobd wages, but this squeezing the public process has reached the limit of endurance. In simple justice this sort of thing should be prevented by law since the greed of men will so often displace their sense of fair play. That such law as is impera- lively needed will be passed We have no doubt That it will be opposed by the ice trust and other trusts we fully expect, but such opposition should receive no consideration from the servants of the people, Ha- i ven Leader.

NO. DAKOTA WANTS
HOME INSPECTION.
Old Scheme Is Again Urged il
View Of the Dissatisfaction
with Duluth.

Fargo, n. D., Nov. 26. H ONE inspec-
ton for North Dakota grown grain,
with terminal elevators at Fargo,
,Wahpeton and Grand Forks, is again
urged by some of the grain raisers Of
this state as a result Of the recent dis
closures of the methods Of the terminal
elevators at Duluth.
It is argued that as the eastern mill
ers want wheat that comes directly
from the farmers, every bit of grain
grown in this state could be sold to
them. Usually they have representa-
tives at the grading centers when the
purchases are made. -
North Dakota is also, the greatest
grower Of durum wheat, and will grow
more next year than ever. The farm
ers have always felt that an unjust
discrimination was made. against this
wheat BY the Minnesota inspectors.
The grain has. made its own market,
its future is assured and square deal
for it is demanded by the farmers.
Minnesota inspection grows annually
more unsatisfactory and Wisconsin in
spection has not proven a success be-
cause of the attitude Of the railroads.
As the feeling increases there is a
sentiment for North Dakota inspection,
or federal inspection. Either would be
an Improvement over present methods,
and if the government cannot be in
duced to go it alone, the farmers Of
the state will try the home plan.

with which the blue-eyed little fellow
takes himself is very amusing. Before
leaving the Windsor railway station
for London he solemnly recognized that
the right thing to do on going away
was to shake hands with those he left

walked up to the majestic colonel of
the First Life guards and manfully
held out his tiny hand.
He then turned to the colonel of the
Coldstream guards and shook hands
with him. He next selected the mayor
OF Windsor for a handshake and was
steadily working his way down the list
of railway officials when Princess Vic
toria ran Up and said it was time TO 90.
So Prince Olaf trotted gaily off to the
royal salon. and as the train steamed
away he got someone to hold him nm

REPORT Of COMMISSION
I'd Be SUBMITTED
PRESIDENT SAYS CONDITIONS ARE REyOL TING
Chicago Packing Houses are Said to be Filthy in
the Extreme. Both President and
Commission Suggest Remedies

WASHINGTON, June 4.-Presi-
cent Roosevelt's message concerning
the conditions at the Chicago stock
Yards was transmitted to the senate
and house today. After reviewing
the appointment of the commission
of inspection, the president, in his
message, said, in part:
The conditions shown by even
this short inspection to exist in the
Chicago stock yards are revolving.
1t is imperatively necessary, in the
interest of decency, that they should
be radically changed. Under the ex-
listing law it is wholly impossible to
secure satisfactory results.
Before l had received the report
of Messrs. Reynolds and Neill l had
directed that labels placed upon any
package of meat food products should
state only that the carcasses of the
animal from which the meat was
taken had been inspected at the time
of slaughter. If inspection of meat
food products at all stages of prepar-
alton is not secured by the passage
of legislation recommended, I shall
feel compelled to order that inspec-
ton labels and certificates on canned
products shall not be used hereafter.
"The report shows that the stock
yards and packing houses are not
kept even reasonably clean and that
the method of handling and prepar-
ing food products is uncleanly and
dangerous to health.
''In my judgment the expenses of
the inspection should be paid by a
fee levied on each animal slaugh-
| tered. If this is not done, the whole
purpose of the law can at any time
be defeated through an insufficient,
appropriation and whenever there
was no particular interest in the sub
ject it would not be only easy but
natural thus to make the appropria-
ton insufficient. If it were not for
this consideration | should favor the
government paying for it.
THE alarm expressed in certain
quarters concerning this feature
should be allayed by a realization of
the fact that in no case, under such
a law, will the cost of inspection ex-
coed cents per head.
81 call special attention to the fact
that this report is preliminary, and
that the investigation is still unfin-
ished. 1t is not yet possible to re-
port on the alleged abuses in the use
of deleterious chemical compounds in
connection with canning and preserv-
ing meat products, nor on the alleged
| doctoring in this fashion of tainted
meat and of products returned to the
packers as having grown unstable
from age or from other reasons
