Lower Prices for Meats.

Patrick Cudahy has demonstrated
the capacity to tell fur in advance
the direction which will be taken by
the prices Of provisions He predicted
the late upward movement at q time
when Others were of opinion that
prices had risen as high as they could
and would either recede or remain at
a standstill. Now that he says they
will go lower it is safe to accept his
Judgment on the subject as correct,
especially in view of the circumstance
that it is accompanied by the reason
on which he bases it.
The factor upon which Mr. Cudahy
depends for lower prices of beef and
pork in this country is the low prices
of wheat and corn. Last year grain
prices We're soaring. 1t did not pay
farmers TO keep their stock, for the
stock would "eat it's head off" Sheep
and hogs and cattle were sold because
it did not pay so well to keep and fat

The Situation in URUGUAY.

Between Argentina and Brazil in
South America there lies a beautiful
piece of country known as Uruguay
1t has a population Of about Loco, 900
persons and fine capital city called
Montevideo, with population of about
$4,000. The area Of the country is
72,172 miles, which makes it clear that
the country is not thickly populated
With a commanding position and a
most favorable proximity to prosper
Gus and developing neighDoring coun-
tries Uruguay apparently has a great
future.
Uruguay is not very well known in
the revolution column, but it appears
there is now some kind of a political
disturbance which has called forth
riots. A revolution seems imminent
The dispatches recently said the rev.
olution would probably now be under

horses.

WHAT MAY BE SETTLED TODAY

THE national results today may de-
termine what is to happen in 1912
Ray Stannard Baker is right in his
recent assertion that
"A new party--new in the sense Of
having new Ideals and new leadership
has come into being within the last
year. Thus far, it is inside the repusg
lican party, seeking to control the re-
publican party, which it may or may
not succeed in doing"
There is no such word as fail with
the new party-it is not the party
booked to die. If it cannot make way
for a higher regard for the peoples
interests it is likely to make a way
for itself.

western seorn of Vermont.

The best that the state of VermonS
could show up in the 1910 census WAN
a gain of 1875 over the count of ten
years before. These figures would
indicate that the diminutive Yankee
state had about reached it's maximum
growth A good, substantial state like
Verm ont. with all of it's resources In
the hands OF private individuals and
with no fields of Industries to be de-
veloped, ought to be well qualified to
show state like Oregon, which adds
as much population in month as
Vermont has in ten years, the best
method for conserving our resources.

"Wea sci Words"

Having made John Bunyan's man
with the muckrake" famous, Mr..
Roosevelt has undertaken a similar
service for Stewart Chaplins weasel
words" He is quoted in the New
Hampshire dispatches as having Gin
vented weasel words with the mean
ing of words that suck the meaning
out of the words that follow" as -wea-
sells suck the substance out of eggs.
Since this use of weasel words"
found it's original specific application
to the Mckinley Roosevelt platform
of 1900. our readers may be interest
ed in q reproduction of that part of
Public editorial in which the phrase
then appeared:
TN a delicious political satire by
Stewart Chaplin, published in the June
Century, the subtle art of construct
ing party platforms is exquisitely and
humorously worked out 1t is there
explained that they must, for exam
pie, please civil service people and not
scare the heelerS please the gold peo-
pie and not scare the silverites; please
the people generally that want econ
omy, and not scare the crossroads peo-
pie that want marble postofice and
a granite bridge over their creek;
please the anti ?trust element and not
scare the capitalists, and please the
free traders without soaring protec-
tionists;' and that they must be writ
ten with lots of nerve sliding over all
the things the people are hot about
and going in strong for what nobody
disputes
The most important element in the
construction of these platforms is
what the satirist calls weasel words"
They are the words that suck all
the life out of the words next to them,
just as a weasel sucks an egg and
leaves the SHELF; so that IF you heft
the egg afterward, it's as light as a
feather and not very filling when you
are hungry, but a basketful of them
would make quite show and would
thmbooZle the unWary." Examples
of weasel words are wise excep-
tfons,'' Justly undue" duly etc.
and their synonyms and variables.-
