TO Understanding Them.
William Snyder, familiarly known
as Bill" has beenS keeper of the
animals in the city's menagerie at
Central lark since as far back as any
one can remember-that Is to say, for
the past % years. Before he came
here he was with Barnum's show,

the Georgia metropolis. Such a
career means lifelong and loving as
ISOLATION with the world Of beasts,
birds, and reptiles, and such an init
mate acquaintance therein as the big
game hunter and the "faunal natural
list" can never acquire.
Snyder knows the "beasties" where
they live. and has wen the cOnfiding
sympathy OF their wild, shy. foolish,
trustful, timid. or rebellicus little
hearts. Two generations of New

THE MEAT BOYCOTT AND THE
STRIKE WAVES.

New York is said to be wondering
what has become of the meat boy
colt movement. News dispatches say
that the anti-meat movement has
gone the route of most noble crusadcs.
while the beel trust continues to do
business at the same old stand. The
price Of all meat probably is higher
today than ever before. the packers
apparently having found it easy after
the first few days of the boycott 10
make the public pay for all that was
lost on account of the drop in prices
at the outset, and then some.
No one supposed that the meat boy
colt alone would be the means OF
bringing the beef trust to its knees
or of reducing the cost of living. But
the movement was not In vain. II
was one of the evidences of the re-
belllon of the people against the
grinding of the monopolies and it had
its effect.
Stronger and more effective evidence
of the peoples discomfort is found in
the strike wave that Is passing over the
country. Civic corrups:Oa and the
greed of the street railway corpora
ton probably are directly responsible
for the strike of the philadelphia car
men and their sympathizels. but the
countrywide sentiment in favor OF re-
volting against corporate piracy" in
general probably is largely rccpousi-
BILE for the outbreak and for the NOR /
support given the strikers by the
Quaker City public. Twenty-Five
thousand trainmen are about 10 quit
work in the North West and news dis
patches from everywhere tell OF
troubles between employers and en-
ployes. All OF the demands of the
vatious bodies Of striking wOrkmen
are not just-it would be miraculous
il they were since the workmea are
human. and perhaps some OF the
strikes are inexcusable, but in a great

"pUT UP OR SHUT UP"

Up in Petersburg somebody is ad-
vancing the idea that the city needs
a metropolitan and up-todate news
l.aper The index-Appcal in a char
a1teristlc editorial announces to the
promoters of this idea that ii has the

better paper cannot be made by
standing around and making dis
paraging comparison OF the home
paper with others printed in larger
cities and having advertising business
many times as great. Assurance also
Is given that a bigger and better
paper will never be made by trying
to grind down the already low ad-
vertising rates to starvation basis,
and then declining to advertise be-
cause the paper declines to starve.
The Petersburg promoters might
as well accept the lndex-Appeafs

A newspaper depending upon city

the city is willing to pay for. It
costs money to get cut a paper and
the better the paper the more IL
