THE PEOPLE BENEFITED.

At a time when charges Of graft are
made on every hand, when wrongdoing
has come to be expected from every
ofiiceholder, when individuals long
trusted and honOred have been shown
to be made Of the commOnest sort Of
clay, II Is easy to become pessimistic
and to see only evil In the path Of the
republic. The respondent are apt to be
carried away by the storm, and even
saner folk, warned OF some impending
curse by a prophet OF III, are swept
from their moorings. At such time
1t is refreshing and hope.inspiring to
hear a clear voice telling OF the good
OF life and calling TO the dOwn-hearted
TO cheer up and see the bright side OF
things. A notable instance Of such op.
t!mism was President Angels bacca-
laureate address at Ann Arbor, In
which he said that the present reaction
Of Indignation against the public In
iqultlcs which have been exposed has
carried the great mass OF the people to
a moral height which they seldom have
attained. The thoroughness with which
acknowledgement has been investigated,
the determination which has been man
Tested TO eradicate evils. the inslstent
demand for stricter laws OF regula'
ton, the dethronement OF bosses who
have held power for years, the scorn
and contempt accorded 10 public men,
long honOred, who have been detected
IN unsavory business deallngs-all
show the moral soundness of the ma
jorlty Of the people of the country. ~
more sane and wholesome state of pub
lie feeling has never been seen,' art
Mr.. Angels words. This suggestion
opened the way for an appeal for en-
roliment Of college graduates among
those who are determined that right
and honor shall prevail. ON the ont

BEEF FROM LUMPY Jaw
|, CATTLE.

IN the report that large proportion
Of the beef from lumpy jaw cattle cold
In the United states Is being marketed
and consumed in Chicago, the people Of
this city have an additional ev!deacs
of the need for the most vigorous meas.
urcs TO protect the purity Of their meat
supply. To judge from the statements
Of the food inspectors stationed at one
Of the local plants not connected with
the larger packing houses, the warning
cannot be made too emphatic.
These officials have discovered that
Chicago is now being made the dump
ing ground for meat taken from cattle
afflicted with !umpy jaw or actlnomy'
COSTS. 81. Louis prohibits the sale N
such meat. Kansas City permits the
diseased cattle 70 be slaughtered, bu,
forblds the sale Of the beef. The larger
packing establishments here also refuse
10 handle cattle having the disease. ~
q consequence, from 100 10 200 head OF
these animals, after having been con

larger packing houses, are sent cacl
