( Whose Steer rs 1t?5

When q butcher buys q steer he thinks
tho money he has put into It gives him
n right to tho steer. The facts now are
that he has few rights In that steer, Ills
ownership is merely nominal. The people
are his partners. 1t was not SO few
years ago, but now the people and tho
butcher own the steer In cahoots. The
government Is growing, Instead OF let
ting the butcher do anything he pleases
with his steer, tho government says that
ic 1t is a sick steer 1t cannot 3he killed
for food When the steer Is killed, even
.is 1t Is a sound ana healthy steer. the
government says that tho butcher shall
not use personalities to keep the meat
long enough to sell IT. II the sales are
slow, II he desires to can he meat OF
the steer. he is not allowed tolspice It up,
and call 1t boned chicken or potted ham
or anything but beef. More than that,
the house In which he kills the steer
must be plumbed and have wash rooms
and water closets away from the mea s
cutting room, and the butcher is not al
lowed to employ man who has co COZ
sumption
Thus does society assert Its rights IN
the steer. There Is no private property
in this country any more, The laws are
making MS all partners THIS 70 2 grow

Some months ago Samuel Tucker. q

goodly sum of money and his own white
mare. The next day Gordon's coachnan
drove out With the new purchase. The
horse promptly bolted and overturned
the vehicle besides hurting the driver
against q wall. IN
Tho Doctor examined the horse more
closely, and was 3astonlshed to find that
the beasts beautiful chestnut color came
off by washing, revealing underneath n
dirty coat Of white, Further inYestisa-
zion identified the new possession With a
notoriously vicious runaway horse, which
Tucker had for years been trying IN vain
TO get rid of. IA coat Of chestnut dye
and a little dope" had temporarily trans
formed the runaway. both In appearance
and disposition, into the apparently gem

palmed of on tho Doctor, AMI which
nearly murdered his coachman.
