ors II sold and consumed In Chicago,
according to a recent article In the
Chicago Tribune. St. Louis prohibits
both the slaughter and sale Of 'lumpy
Jaw" cattle In that city, and Kansas
City, while 1t permits the Strengthening
OF such cattle, prohibits the sale Of the
beef.
That Chicago has become the "dump.
Ing ground" for practically all the
'lumpy Jaw" beef In the country was
revealed by food inspectors.
At one plant are slaughtered every
Friday from 100 to 200 head of "lumpy
Jaw" cattle. OF these only small
fraction IL condemned as unfit for con.
sumption. The rest, with the diseased
parts cut out, Is sold for prime beef,
and brings the retailer as good prices
az the best beef.
This 10 possible by reason Of the fact
that the consumer has no way Of telling
whether the beef he buys 10 part Of
"lumpy Jaw" steer or not. II the In.
spectors pass an infected animal, after
the p0st.mOrtem inspection, the beef IL
placed In the cooler and sold just as
any other beef.
Out Of a total days slaughter Of 100
head Of "lumpy Jaw" and otherwise In.
fected animals only twelve car.
cases were condemned after post.
norton inspection. This means that at
an average weight Of 1900 pounds each
there will be sold In Chicago during
the next few days at least 10000
pounds Of "lumpy Jaw" beef. How
much Of the same kind Of meat Is
shipped into Chicago from Kansas City
and other places where Its sale Is pro.
hiblted would be difficult to estimate.
but the quantity Ia undoubtedly large.
In most of the Eastern cities ordi.
nances are In force prohibiting the sale
Of meat from animals with actinOmy-
COSTS. the scientific name for "lumpy
Jaw" Thus Chicago remains as the
only large market where that class of
cattle may be slaughtered and sold with
profit.
The average weekly receipts Of cattle
ut the stock yards are 10000 head, and
among these always are found from
100 to 200 animals infected In one
way or another.

There is no more popular line Of
steamers on the great lakes than the
old and well established Barry Line.
The popularity OF this great line has

During the annual convention Of the
American Meat Packers Association.
which opened In Chicago Oct Z. 1907,
the committee appointed to ask the gov.
eminent to return to the packers meats
rejected and condemned by govern.
ment inspectors, made the following
report: mo provision has been made
for the return Of meats to inspected es.
Establishments after they have been re-
jected, but your committee expects,
when this IL fully considered by the de.
partment, relief will be granted"
In other v0cds, meats condemned
because Of cancer, tuberculosis, lumpy.
jaw and the like will be returned to
the packers!
What will the packers do with this
condemned meat?
Ship 1t abroad. or sell It to the peo-
pie Of Chicago?
People are beginning to appreciate
the enormity of the withdrawal of Chi.

REPUBLICANS INSIST On
SELECTION or MCCORMICK
Eastern Montana a Unit for Billings Man
for Messenger to Carry Electoral Vote.

81 Paul Mccormick OF Billings led the
Republican ticket in Montana at the
recent state election. He was chosen
an elector by a vote Of 8 2 333, which
is 1,O73 more votes than received by
the nearest other Republican candi-
date for presidential e%lector, General
Warren, and 4,82S more votes than re-
<ceived by the lowest man on the Dem
ocratic state ticket.
This is the second time that the
Hon. Paul Mccormick has been select
ed q presidential elector on the Repub-
lican ticket by a vote at least 1000
greater than that of the nearest other
candidate and as a result his friends
in Eastern Montana are urging that
Mr.. Mccormick should be sent to
Washington to carry the vote.of Mon
tana to the electoral college.
They assert that it is his right to
be thus honored. Twice he has made
the race on the Republican ticket for
presidential elector and twice he has
devoted his time to further the inter.
est of the ticket at large and has been
elected by a greater vote than any
other candidate. -Four years ago he.
stepped aside and permitted Marshall
Merrifeld, a friend Of President Roose.
welt to be the messenger to take Mon
tana's vote to Washington, but this
year his friends assert he should re-
ceive the honor.
Then again they assert that it is
due Eastern Montana that he be
named. The other two presidential
electors, excellent men, .staunch Re
publicans and pioneers, come from.
