Independent Packers and the Meat Trust

The meat trust lawyers are endeavor- ing to show in the federal grand jury investigation in Chicago that the trust does not control the greater part of the meat industry. The little packers, it is claimed, handle the larger percentage Of the great trade in meats.
 So they may, but every one of them lives at the mercy of the National Pack ing company whose great concentrated ca pital can crush at will any independent packer in the manner of the Standard oil. That is to say, the trust can take away the business of any independent company by cutting prices.
 The little packers are permitted to do business on the condition that they will not cut prices. This destroys competi- ton by putting the small packers in alliance with the meat trust, and the lat ter is thus enabled to put prices up or down as it sees fit. The monopoly so far as prices are concerned is complete.
 The little packers become partners or agents of the trust, and are allowed to buy cattle and hogs at trust prices so long as they sell dressed meat at the trusts prices. This is the nature of tho combine, and the percentage of meats handled by the little packers is no sign of relief to the ultimate consumer. It shows on the other hand how strong the meat trust has become and how helpless the consumer has become and will con- tinue 10 be so long as the Smoot-Aldrich tariff remains to protect the meat com bine against competition from Australia, Argentina and Canada.

Commissioner Wallaoe's Circular Letter

Game Commissioner Wallace comes to the defense of the robins rather late in the season, for in their flight to their breeding places in the north they have passed through Alabama and are now being slaughtered by pot-hunters in Ten nessee and Kentucky, neither of which states offers them any protection. "The robins,'' says Commissioner Wallace. "are not only valuable as insect destroyers but occupy the same relation to the people of the north as does the mocllingbird to the citizens of the south-the best beloved and most sacred song bird
 While the migatory season of song and insectivorous birds lasts Commission CT Wallace charges the game wardens of the state to be alert in prosecuting all who slaughter any of them. He de clares them to be mans best allies against insects and hurtful weeds. ''rhey should be protected" he adds. mot only on account of their innocence, bright plunage and inspiring songs, but because they render valuable assistance to the farmer every day"
 The circular letter before us shows how fortunate Alabama is in having a poet as well as a humanitarian and economist in the office of game and fish commissioner. He proposes to protect all birds, including the birds of passage that sing for us but short time and that do not stay long enough to eat many jn- seets. He is wholly right. and wholly within the excellent game laws of Ala hama

SOUNDS WARNING
 ABOUT MEASLES

Health Officer Dr. R. B. Hardness has advised Mayor O'Brien that Birmingham is threatened with an epidemic of measles a;d asks that the matter be given full publicity ill order that everyone may ex- ercise care in preventing the disease from spreading. Dr. Hardness declares measles to be one of the most dangerdls diseases on account of the probable after effects, but states that the general pub li1 appears not to realize this fact. His communication to the mayor reads:
 q beg to call your attention to the fact that we ara in imminent danger of a se- ricus epidemic of measles. People have long since been educated to the fact that diphtheria and scarlet fever may and should be prevented from spreading, yet we find strange apathy when we come in contact with measles, which is by far the most dangerous of the acute exen- themeta by reason of the dangerous con- rljcations that are so apt to follow in its trail.
 eve must endeavor to educate the pub lie to the point of exercising the utmost caution in dealing with this disease.
 T would suggest that the present dan ger be made public and all citizens be urged to isolate all suspicious cases promptly until the nature of the disease can be aseertained. The superintendent of the pubic schools has been notified of the danger of an epidemic of measles and suitable measures will be instituted in or der that the public schools may be pro- rected."

The Effect on Florida

q was in Florida early in October of last year, and it was generally thought then that prohibition would be written in the constitution of that state,' said Ed ward R. Si etson of Cincinnati
 "The proposed amendment to the con- stitution to be voted on next November was pending, and all the ultra prohibi- tionists with whom l talked expressed themselves as absolutely confident that the amendment would carry. They said that constitutional prohibition was sure to win in Alabama, and that Alabama amendment leaders had promised to come to Florida this year and help to write pro- hibition in Floridas organic law. I wis., tied that state again last week, and from what I heard the amendists have prac- tically abandoned all hope of carrying their measure. l was only in Florida on this trip two days, and met only one of the men who told me in October that constitutional prohibition would score a that the landslide against Alabama's pro- posed amendment had had a very bad ef- feet on the cause in Florida. He said that former amendment leaders in Ala bana seemed hacked. And, of course, he added, they could not help us now.
 The wave of drastic prohibition seems to be reeoding everywhere, and this change Is attibuted largely to the result of last November's election in Alabama. have not reen in this state long enough to know who will be Alabamas next gov ernor. but it is pretty safe bet that it will be tho man who organized the move ment which beat the amendment

I'VE GOT SMALLPOX
 WAS ALL HE SAID

He appeared to be just an ordinary negro. Of course, his face was tied up in rags of various colors, odors, and degrees of cleanliness. but 1t was cold and many negroes wrap their heads in bundle when the weather gets frosty. He was far from looking dangerous, for he walked with a halting step and every mo- ton was one Of weakness. Yet when he walked up to big a00-pound Harry Mul- lin. of the city fire department, and said three simple words, Harry turned pale, his eyes got big and his knees shook, and he lost no time in facing about" and going down the alley back of the fire department at speed that would startle Barney Oldheld. All the negro said to Harry was, i've got smallpox"
 The negro said that his name was Thomas King and that he lived at Pow derly station. The interview with him was cut short, for it is hard to carry on a conversation with a man that you pre- fer to keep 50 feet away from you. He was found by Officer Whitfield and taken to the police station, where it was dis covered that he had a bad case of small pox. A message was sent for the pest wagon and the negro was given quarters in the alley in front of the wagon house.
 After standing the cold for 15 or % minutes, he asked for match and break ing up an old store box. which was given him, he built fire and seemed to be as comfortable as John D. Rockefeller. He waited two hours before the wagon came end transported him to the pest house. As the pest wagon disappeared around the corner those about the police sta ton heaved a sigh of relief and among those who sighed, Harry Mullin sighed the deepest.
