WILSON SAYS PACKERS
WILL REAP ADVANTAGE

Washington, July 30.-Secretary
Wilson declares that as result of the
new meat inspection law and the rules
just promulgated by him a radical
change for the better will occur.
"Within very short time," he
said, "the meat products of the Unit.
ed States will be purer and more
wholesome than any similar products
of the world. The cond itions existing
in some Of the slaughtering and pack.
ing houses abroad are about as bad as
can be imagined, and the American
people will henceforth enjoy distinct
advantage over the foreign consumers.
"Of particular importance is the
rule providing for weekly inspection
reports to be supplied the bureau of
animal industry. Without such re.
ports it would be hard to cope with
the situation. As a general PROPOSE
ton, however, the law will be com.
piled with in every detail, but l shall
take nothing for granted and will
make the inspections in every estab-
lishment that the law reaches rigid
and complete.
1t has not been determined when
the rules governing the interstate
transportation phase of the question
will be issued.
The secretary is in daily conference
with railroad men and from these he
has gathered a considerable amount of
data on the subject. 1t is believed at
the department that the railroads will
not be less sincere in complying with
the law than the packers. In fact, it
is stated, they have evidenced deter
mination to cooperate with the de.
partment in every way in order that
those meat products that bear the gov.
eminent label shall find their way into
other than the states from whence
they were shipped.

HARTMAN WILL EXTEND LINE
New Road May Connect With the Can.
adam Pacific.

Seattle, July 30.-A statement made
last week before the council commit
tee on corporations that the Hartman
system will build north of Seattle is
confirmed. That system will construct
a road into British Columbia. The
towns to be tapped en- route are not
definitely determined, for the road has
not been surveyed. In general way,
though, it will tap the same country
the Hill systems reach.
This confirmation gives rise again to
the story that the Canadian Pacific is
interested in the Hartman invasion
of Northern territory. None of the
Hartman or Canadian officials will
confirm this story.

time when He withdrew Himself.
To the rich young nobleman He, said:
Go sell thy goods and give to the poor
and come follow Me-" He was willing to
live an upright. moral life but he was not
willing to meet this requirement of self
sacrifice. although the cultivation of de-
pendence upon God and of charity to His
fellowmen were the two things he stood
most in need of.
Great multitudes followed Jesus as He
journeyed through Perea toward Jerusa-
lem. and both they and the disciples
thought that the time was ripening for
the setting up of His kingdom. and so
flocked to Him in the hope of position
and preferment 1t was then that He
turned to them and said: 'If any man
come to Me. and hate not Lis father and
mother and wife and children. and breth-
rem and sisters, yea, and his own life also,
he cannot be My disciple
The same was true of the case before
us. Jesus had just told to His disciples
His approaching suffering and death, at
which Peter began most vehemently to pro-
test. for it upset all their ideas and ex-
pectations with regard to the Messianic
kingdom. 1t was then that he said to
his disciples: IF any man will come after
me, let him deny himself and take up
his cross and follow me-"
The question naturally presents itself:
Why did Jesus utter such apparent dis
couragements and what did He mean by
such seemingly difficult conditions? Did
He not really want men to come to Him?
Surely He did. 1t was for this He came
saith: This is true saying and worthy
of all men to be received. that Christ Jesus
came into the world to save sinners"
What He wanted was, that men should
count the cost before coming to Him.

serve Christ? Then note the conditions

yet come to Christ is in a certain sense
his own master.
The citizen is in no way bound by the
regulations of the army. but so soon as
he enrolls himself as a soldier he gives
up the greater part of his previous liberty
and must render obedience to army regu-
lations. So it is when a man comes to
Christ; by so doing he puts himself under
the direction of another master. and hav-
Ing come to Christ he must be obedient
unto him, and this obedience involves the
denial of self. He must no longer serve
self. but Christ. Now do not think that

emergency. A large number of white
people not only go there to mass, but regu-

and also receive communion at the same

of worshipers from the race and it was in
that year that the labors which eliminated

to have first attracted notice when it was
