cows are free from diseases, that
the water used for rinsing is Of un-
doubted purity, and that the milk

phoid and other intestinal dis
eases.
We can guard against infection

If the plans OF the congressional COM
mittee that will probe deeply into the OPP
erations of the express companies in the
United States go right, there are trouble
some times ahead for these rapacious cor
porationS. The extortions which they
have been practicing upon the people
have reached point where they can be
endured no longer, and Congress, under
Democratic auspices, will thoroughly in
vestigate the system. Without any justi-
fication in law or morals, the express
companies have continuously advanced
exorbitant rates year after year, until
the people are now in open rebellion.
Without increasing the compensation OF
their employees or paying more for rail-
road service or adding TO their equipment
the companies have greediIy piled on
their charges "all that the traffic would
bear, with responsibility to no authority,
no competition and consideration for no
Interests outside their own Golfers.
There is hope that the present investi-
CATION will result in parcels post sys-
tenn, when the government will have
charge ofthe transportation of small pack
ages as it now has of the mails. When
this comes, rates will be fair and service
good and millions of dollars in the way
OF charges will be saved to the people.
