UNCLE SAM PAYS
HIGH FOR MEAT
The High Price Of Meats for the Army
Enough to Bankrupt the Gov
ernment.

San Antonio. Texas. May 22.-The
high price of meat apparently does not
greatly affect government contracts
Tenders advertised by department
headquarters at Fort Sam Houston for
the purveyance of fresh beef to the
garrison in the department Of Texas
amply demonstrate this. The con-
tracts for Fort Sam Houston, Clark,
Bliss, Mcintosh and the Reno Remount
depot were secured by Swift and Com
pany at the following respective prices
per hundred pounds: $3.50, s10.50,
$3.50, 1897, and $685. The Fort Lo-
gan H. Roots. Arkansas, contract war
secured by Armour and company at
s9.93 per hundred pounds, and John
A. Leberman, of Ell Reno. Okla, was
given the Fort Sill contract at $40.
According to the contract only the
highest grade of meat is accepted by
the quartermaster, furnishing cuts,
which according to contract price,
would range from minimum of six
cents per pound to twelve and one-half
cents per pound. The retail price of
meat at the points named is a little
more than double that paid by the
government
The publication of the contracts has
created quite little of sensation
among retail butchers in this city.
Compared with the contracts of last
year the supply for 1901 is little
more than one cent higher per pound.

Just called by early doom;

While yet so young and fair;

God bade him blossom there.

WOMEk'S CLUB WANTS
LIBRARY IN THE PARK
Enthusiastic Meeting Held Yesterday and Petitions
Will Be Circulated Asking City Council to Secure
Small Corner of the Par for Library Purposes =
Sets Forth Reasons This is Most Desirable Location

hours time can spend it both profit
ably and pleasantly.
60. This location is at the in
tersection of the six streets-a loca-
ton not duplicated elsewhere in the
city.
CO. This part of the park would
not cost the city dollar, whereas
any other suitable. location could not
be secured for less than $4,000 or
$4,000.
CD. The building proposed is a
beautiful one and would in itself be
an addition to the park.
(8). BY using this 1856 part OF
the park for library purposes. it
would still be devoted to the pub
lie and more people would be enjoy
ing this little space should library
be located there, than if the same
space were used for park purposes
exclusively.
Believing that action should be
taken Immediately and that plans
should be made for the early con-
struction of a public library for this
city, we your petitioners, ask that
your honorable body take such steps
at once as are necessary to secure
the location of the library in this
place.

occur you know to whom to look
We have a personal interest in
pleasing our customers. We could
not have built up our large business
on other than correct methods.
Our stock is produced under the
most favorable conditions to des elop

rooted, fully matured trees. Soil as
fertile as ever made, water as need

cultivation and care, and a splendid
fall season for hardening the wood

make good our claim for superior

When digging time comes we har-
die this work expeditiously and with
a system that guarantees our custo-

An enthusiastic meeting of the
Women's Club of Wenatchee was
held yesterday at the residence of
Mrs. John S. Mooney. 1t was the
unanimous sentiment of the club
that the city council should accept
the offer of Andrew Carnegie of
$4,000 for library purposes and
| that the location should be in the
city park.
The members of the club will at
once commence the circulation of a
| petition among the residents of the
city and the valley generally, asking
that the city council should take i'm
| mediate action in accepting the Of
fer of Andrew Carnegie and towards
securing a deed for the site from
Judge Burke.
The petition will be presented to
the council at the meeting next
Tuesday evening and it is expected
at this time that some formal action
will be taken.
The following is copy of the pc
tition that is being circulated:
To the Honorable Mayor and Men,
bers of the City Council, Wenat-
