A Suggestion About Meat.

A Brandon gentleman who was in
Burlington last week and in the Rem
dering Company's plant, tells that
he saw 4 head of cattle from the re
Gently condemned herd of Tom G..
Seager killed, and that six of the Il
were stamped with the Swift & Co. S
label and put into beef. These cattle
were infected with tuberculosis. They
responded to the test here in Brandon
and this evidence was reinforced by
evidence found in the carcasses after
they were killed. They were in
Spected by a government inspector
who pronounced them infected, but
said they we're not badly enough in
fected to render them unfit for the
table. And so they were put into
beef and perhaps on your supper
table tonight is some cold roast beef,
rare and red, that less than two
weeks ago was in Tom G. Seager's
stable flushed with fever in response
to the tuberculin test. We do not
question the ability of this inspector
at Burlington to judge between cattle
whose flesh is hOney-cOmbed with Ill
GERS caused by this loathsome disease
and those which are less affected
but we do doubt the ability and the
right of that inspector of this state
or government TO pass upon the de-
gree of infected beef that shall be
placed upon my table. In these days
when so much stress is placed upon
pure food laws this passing of con-
taminated beef into open market
seems most ridiculous. If a pound of
coffee containing a dash of chicory,
perfectly wholesome article, must
be labeled blend, why should not
quarter of beef or a can of beef con-
tanning a dash of tuberculosis be
labeled F'blend," and so labeled that
the purchaser may know whether he
is buying infected beef. This passing
to the dinner table cattle that are not
badly infected seems a low down
policy. To our ad. of pure air and
pure water we should add "contami-
mated meat if we are honest. The
people of Vermont should register
their opinion upon this subject at
once. For the state to dabble in dis
eased meat is to open the door to
serious abuse. 1t is perfectly evident
that this diseased meat should be
buried at once, not placed in the
hands of a party who will disguise it
with label and send it back to us
as western" beef. If this diseased
meat is allowed in the market at all
it should certainly conform with the
pure food laws and be labeled
tuberculosis Blend that those who
don't wish to eat it needn't buy it

mont might claim him for it's next

Another illustration of the extent
progressive ideas control the repub-
lican party is shown in the large
majority given by the New Hamp-
shire house of representatives for the
election of United States senator's by
popular vote. The senate has not
acted on the matter yet but the
house evidently spoke for the people,

conditions will be more int6lerable
than ever. We have yet to be shown
that the purpose of Mr.. Mellen is not
merely to stifie competition rather
than to aid in the development of the
regions which the ramifications of his
great system are tapping. There is at
present great and disturbing contrast
between railroad activities in Canada
and activities in the United States

railroads as Agents forDevelopment

Railroads as Agents forDevelopment.
AS an illustration of how little the
American railroads are doing for
developing the country hereabouts,
one only needs to point to the work
of the Canadian Pacific railroad in
Canada last year, when the company
laid out and started forty new towns.
Of course, the Canadian Pacific is
doing this, not from patriotic mo-
tives, but from desire to increase
its own income; but the results are
there, nevertheless. Here it is neces-
sary to importune the railroads to con-
meet with huge industries, to toady to
them and to eventually be squeezed
by them just about as they (the rail-
road Oficials) see fit. In Canada the
railroads go on the idea that they owe
something to the country and to the
people whom they hope to serve; in
this part of the United States, the
railroads jog along under the i'm
preston that the country and the
people owe everything to them and
that it is condescension to carry
their shipments. That in part ex-
plains why the farm sections of Can
ada are going ahead by leaps and
bounds, while the agricultural
regions of New England are going
backward in population. Moreover,
the Canadian Pacific railroad pro-
poses to surpas it's efforts of last year,
and is now laying plans for the
founding of so new towns in the
sections which will be reached by it's
branches. Latterly, the Boston &
Maine railroad has shown some signs
of activity in the matter of gobbling
up railroads in rich natural fields;
but if the movement ends there, the

The Man Who Labors.

Some people. who have money and
time to get away from this hot wealth
er, while the rest of us work, some
times forget that while they may be
more fortunate than we, they are no
better. The man who ran the engine
that took them out of Oklahoma to-
ward a cooler cline not only labored
in the heat of the sun, but he was
close enough to the boiler of his en-
CINE TO feel its heat. He may not
know as much about some things as
some of the mes who were going
away for a rest and recreation but
he doubtless knows a great deal more
about running an engine, and in his
home he may know better how to
provide for his family and he may
even know better how to act the
gentleman. Sometimes he has not
only education, but he is a gentle
man. and has no small degree of cul-
ture, and usually a big heart.
The Times does not suggest that
anyone should neglect the vacation.
II be can afford it; on the contrary
everyone who possibly can should
take one. 1t is money we'll spent
that is, if it is wisely spent. Every
one 4 do more work and do it bet
ter by taking a rest during the heat
ed term. But the thought in mind
IS that the fellow who takes the va
cation must not get all pulled up be-
cause he rests while a large per cent
OF the people continue to work.
The man who works is entitled to
more honor in America than the one
who lives idly on the interest OF mon
ey that some one else made. Money
never made any man. Brains, honor
and hard work. when properly mixed,
will form a nucleus from which one
Is likely to he developed.
But there is much work to be
done. and there are always many who
must OF necessity work all of the
time. The mar who works hard and
completes his work in six or eight
hours should never be made to keep
time because others put in ten or
twelve hours 4 day to do the same
thing. Neither should the man who
does A illl share of the years work
in ten months be kept in the heated
climates, because some Of us take
twelve months in which to accom-.
Plt,h our task. Results count, and
the man who has done his share O
