YOU 6HN'T THINK
Why NOT
OWN 4 HOME Z?

The average family OF moderate
means pays from ~ to y per cent Of
their gross income to the landlord.
In other words, the breau winner
works nearly or quite oue-fOurth Of
his time for the privilege of roof to
cover his head.
Why do not more young married
men buy homes? They can do It II
they will. II only takes u little pluck
little daring and q little self denial.
, A home is on anchor. a rented
apartment can never be anything
more than Il temporary place OF
abode, Moving time will soon be
here. Why not make arrangements
70 move into o home Of your own?
There Is another side TO It. The
purchase of home is almost all
profit. The head OF the family
saves money that he otherwise
would spend in a manner that even he
could not account for
Aud saving for hume often brings
husband and vile closer together
makes o sort OF community OF interest
and sympathy. Talk Il over with
your wife and she will tell you we
can own a home II we will make up
our minds to do it." Aud she Is
right. I'ryit

BIG d PACKERS GUILTY
CONVICTED IN u. S. COURT OF
ACCEPTING REBATES.
First Trial Before July On Charge A.

Kansas City, Mo, June 13.-The Big
Four meat-packing concerns were.
Tuesday, convicted In the United States

numbe of indictments, but the pack
ers n District Attorney Van Valken-
burgh agreed that all the cases should
abide the result of the indictment Of
Cudahy & Co., who were
Charged with accepting a rate of 20
cents a hundred pounds on a shipment
Of lard to New York for export to Ger
many, when the legal tariff then on file
with the interstate commerce commits
sion was 35 cents.
The trial began last week, and after
lengthy argument was continued until
Tuesday morning, when Judge Smith
Mcpherson, of Red Oak, Ia, the pre-
siding judge, instructed the jury.
The jury returned a verdict of gull.
ty.
The present case bears unusual i'm
p%Ortance in the list of rebate trials to
come up in this court, for it is the first
time that any concern has been
brought to trial before a jury on a
charge affecting export rates as applied
to the interstate commerce act. Coun-
sci for the defendants in this trial con
tended that the court: lacked jurisdic-
ton, which was overruled by Judge
Mcpherson, and then that when they
signed a contract covering the 23-cent
rate it was legal, and that the Burling-
ton later raised its tariff to 35 cents.
Judge McPherson's instructions to
the jury covered the points fully.

MOMENTOUS events
IMPENDING IN EUROPE
MORE ARMS TO KEEP
THE PEACE.
Italy Loyal to the Dreibund, While
England, France and Spain Are
Drawing Close Together-InternaI
Troubles In Russia Prevent Car
Taking Sides.

London, June 12.-There are mo-
mentous events impending in Europe,
events which will tax the skill OF
peace-loving diplomats to sweep
aside before the stage of tremendous
conflict has been reached. The new
est symptom Of danger is, according
to the guardians Of England's wei
fare, found in the declaration OF
Francis Joseph of Austria, hitherto
| regarded as a monarch with little
thought of war, that a policy of en-
largement of that country's ARMY and
navy was to be aggressively pursued.
Furthermore, Austria, Is not yet en-
tirely free from internal dangers,
which might require her full strength
to suppress. There are the Hun
garian independence movement and
the mob demonstrations of Austrian
socialists following their clamor for
broader suffrage and other rights
which are not to the crowns liking.
Kaiser's Activity Recalled.
All this follows too closely the visit
Of the kaiser not to warrant suspi-
SAOh tAd IL I'D, III ldCI, Nv 1Cl man
rulers prompting. Indeed it is the
echo of that monarch's reiterated
declaration, eve cloaked under the
suggestion that preparedness is, after
all, the only means of preserving
world peace. 1t is recalled, also, that
during his recent visit to Austria, the
kaiser and Francis Joseph, in a joint
telegram, sounded the Italian mon
arch, and, on the face of things, as
certained that he was loyal to the
dreibund, a matter about which there
had been nor or less uncertainty in
certain quarters. OF significance in
Downing street also is the naturally
closer relationship between England
and Spain, in consequence of the
marriage of Alfonso and the Princess
Ena. Then came the resignation of
the Spanish cabinet and, in the new
one, the duke of A~lmadovor, who pre-
sided over the Algeciras conference,
wherein the kaiser sustained defeat
in his Moorish designs.
Situation In Russia.
A further factor in the situation, in
SO far as the kaiser's schemes are
suspected, is the practically helpless
state of Russia. With seemingly GER
tain civil war confronting him, with
his navy reduced to insignificant pro-
portions, and his army seething With
mutinous sentiment, the car can not
be depended upon to take a hand
against Germany and her allies
against France and England-fot
these two powers will, inevit"Nly, be
found fighting together whatever the
p%retense for war advanced by the
kaiser in the present order of things
in Europe.

MEAT INSPECTION
HEARING Concluded
CRUMPACKER, OF INDIANA, DE-
CLARES BEvERIDGE AMEND
MENT UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
Representative Western CattIenen
Want Quick Action BY Congress
Missouri Congressman Introduces
Resolution Calling On President to
Make Public All Information.

Washington, June 1.-THE house
committee on agriculture has con
cluded the hearings that have been
held on the meat inspection propo'
sition, and the committee has be-
gun the preparation of amendments
to the Beveridge amendment to the
agricultural appropriation bill.
A number of ~well-known western
cattlemen appeared before the com
mittee and urged speedy action.
The great question now before the
committee is who shall bear the eX-
pense of inspection-the government
or the packers.
Representative Crumpacker, of
Indiana, appeared before the COM
mittee, and made a legal argument
against the constitutionality of fed
eral authority for meat inspection,
and supported his statements by a de-
ciSion from the courts. He contend
ed that the entire Beverage provi-
sion, m so far as it related to inspec-
ton, was unconstitutional. Congress-
lie LNdluldlHcu, udu III pOWCI W SOli
pei inspection in the packing houses,
and could only enforce the inssHc-
ton at the time the produce was Of
fered for interstate transportation.
Mr.. Cowan, attorney for the Texas
Cattle RaiserS' association, took is
sue with the position of Representa-
tive Crumpackef that the federal gov
eminent had no right to interfere
with the police powers of the states
by making sanitary regulations. Mr..
Cowan would have the law provide
that no meat shall be allowed to en-
ter interstate commerce unless 1t
bears the label of inspection, and this
label shall not be given unless the
product is put up in accordance with
the secretary of agriculture.
Several members of the committee
at once assented that such 4 provi-
sion would be good law.
Thomas E. Wilson, of the Nelson
Morris Co., representing the big Chi
cage packing houses, was before the
committee.
Glow badly has this agitation hurt
you?" Representative Wadsworth
asked.
1.-THE results have been disastrous"
he said. THE sale Of fresh and man
ufactured products has been more
than cut in two.

TO CONSOLIDATE GOULD LINES.
Wall Street Believes the Long-Cher-
ished Project Is Near
Reality.

New York, June Decentralization
of all the Gould railroads into one
great system, control Of which will
probably rest in a holding company
similar to the Rock Island corpora
ton, may be brought about in the
near future. This is a plan of Geo.
j. Gould, which has been in nebulous
state for several years, and has Of.
ten been prematurely reported as
completed. That the plan is nearer
accomplishment now than ever be-
fore is believed in Wall street, since
the announcement a few days ago
that the Wabash railroad manage
ment will issue 5000, 600, 900 of bonds.
