ties on Neat Inspection.
An official statement has been issued
by the Department of Agriculture, with
a view to correcting some misleading
statements recently made by the munich
pal veterinary inspector Of Glasgow. q"
which reflect upon the United States meat
inspection, and which have been pub
iished in Great Britain and in this coun-
try.
The report says that the figures of the
Glasgow veterinarian were evidently gar
bled and based on the report of COM
mittee on conditions IN Chicago. The
Scotchman said that in 1865 II, ,75z 165 ami
mails were slaughtered IN this country. an
average OF 3.4s2 day, and that the num-
Der OF inspectors was only forty; it, there
fore, being necessary for each inspector
TO examine the carcasses- of not less than
s37 animals each dey-an utter impossi-
bility
AS a matter Of fact, the departments
statement says, the report Of the Bureau
Of Animal Industry for 1866 shows 40, ,22f 0i3
animals inspected, and the number of in
spectors as 76S. not including 2i3 micro
scopists.

Wednesday Deputy Sheriff Vic

tax lists of 1905 which had been
reported stolen from the Clerks
office at the time of the last cleo
ton in this parish for electing a
Sheriff to FIJI the vacancy caused
by the death of the late Sheriff
Badon. H. said that when he was
asked for a list of the poll tax
payers of 1905 he was told that he
could get the lists from the
Clerks Office and when he called
for them they were given to him.
Now this is a matter that cannot
be looked upon too seriously, and
this matter should be given seri-
GUS investigation by the next
Grand Jury. These poll tax lists
were reported stolen and could
not be used at time they were
needed, and now at another time
they are needed they are found.
What has happened in this case
may happen in another, and it is
matter that concerns every one
having interest in the public re-
cords. We do not know who is
responsible for the taking of these
records but it seems that some
one tempered with them and every
effort should be made by the
Grand Jury to locate the RESPONSE:
