hot enough to roast a man who would
bow to the Beef Trust In a matter Of

like morgues. The Beef Trust mag.

In magazine articles. OF course these
slaughter Joints are clearly. They
have to be. They are sanitary in near.
~ every respect. The only unsani.
tary things about the Trust slaughter
houses are the cancerous cattle, the

embalmed beef turned out by the
Trust is sanitary-from an embalmer's
standpoint.
What object can the members of tho

nois pure food laws and wanting them

The Eagle feels highly compliment
ed over the way its reading matter Il
stolen and reprinted without credit
But II feels sorry that the able editors
who steal II cannot give 1t a wide
circulation than they do. As the Eagle
reaches its readers at least twenty
four hours earlier than the principa
purloiners, the thefts are easily recoG
nlzed.
The Beef Trust counts upon electinl
a majority Of the Illinois delegation t
Congress next year.
Hogs that 20 to England and thu
United States are not examined f0l
trichina. All hogs for Germany
France and Austria are. Some escape
though.
The Beef Trust viii get it, desertl
before many years roll by. The Trust
press cannot hide the truth from th(
people. Little by little they will Learn
the facts, and when they do wals up
you win hear On explosion.
