Mtl5 EXPORTS A
Tn|NG Of THE PAST
No Shipments to England So Far
this Year-SAortase Of Home
Supply the Economic Reason

The export live cattle trade of
the United States is practically
dg&d.
Not shipment has been made
during the present year. During
the last six months there have been
no cattle sent abroad for food pur-
poses. except q hundred head across
the Atlantic and q few to Bermuda.
The supply Of cattle from the west
for export purposes has entirely
dried up. The Iairs ut Birkenhead
in the Mersey and Gravesend' in
the Tyne no longer report arrivals
Of United States cattle, week after
week going by without the appear
ance Of solitary beast.
There is no chance nowadays OF
getting cheap though not easy
pssage to Europe on a cattle boat
by giving service tending the cattle
aboard. The Atlantic Transport
boats to London and other liners
have rearranged their stall fittings
and carry other cargo.
With carcasses of fresh meat
Eept sound by refrigeration, the
Export business is also dead, so far
Is the United States is concerned.
England and Europe and countries
that are dependent on other nations
for their food supply are getting
their meat from South America and
Australia.
The decline Of the export live
cattle and meat trade is due, not
to the perverse action of trusts,
but 70 far-reaching economic rea-
sons. The occupation and settle
ment Of the land of the western
statea breaking up the cattle ranch
es h .1reduced the production of
cattle so that it has not even kept
pace with the growth of our
population. There is a surplus of
rain utter the bountiful harves
OF last year and a deficit of cattle.
Farmers are feeding their stocks
Of grain to their live stock.
At Chicago feeding cattle are
selling at the same price as fat
cattle. because Of the short supply
Of their feeding cattle. Feeding
cattle are selling at 8 cents q
[Apound in Chicago. making the
worth of the animal. according to
size. from about $50 to $40 head.
No such condition has ever been
known in the business. The effect
on the consuming market Of New
York and other cities of the Allan
tic seaboard states is seen in the
fact that the supply Of cattle for
slaughter in the local abattoirs is
atleast 25 per cent short Of what
it should be in line with growth of
population and a corresponding
consumers demand during the last
three years. ~.

GETTING HISTORY STRAIGHT.

At a meeting of Confederate vet
Grams at the recent Gettysburg cele-
bration a resolution was passed de-
claring that the civil war could not
have resulted otherwise, for if the
100000 soldiers of the South under
such commanders as Lee and his
generals lost eve see that the demon
stration was complete, that the thing
could not be done, and our failure
must give pause to those who, in the
future, would contemplate such an
undertaking." The argument from a
Confederate source is of an original
nature, but as far as it goes 1t is
sound. AS the impossible was at
tempted the result was certain A
slave republic side by side WIFI one
that was free could not get along
peaceably. The Mississippi was new
er designed for two jurisdictions
How could tranquility be expected
on an inland frontier stretching from
the Atlantic to the Pacific? The
mountain people of the South were
for the old flag. They could have
been held only by force. Immigra-
ton flowed to the North almost ex-
clusively, and there was concentrated
the bulk of national wealth.
1t is true, as quantity stated that
the thing could not be done" if Lee
and his veterans could not accom-
plish it. But there are stronger rea-
sons why failure was foredoomed to |
be the result of the Confederate |
cause. They are grandly stated in |
Lincoln's Gettysburg Grafton. The |
cause of all republics, all humanity,
was at stake If the United States
went to wreck what hope remained
for any nation so constituted? Two,
divided against each other, would be
a sorry remnant of the one founded
by Washington and the generals and
statesmen associated with him. If
Lees army had been twice as strong
slavery would have gone down event.
lally. 1t has been abolished in all
civilized countries. Yet it was in the
Confederate constitution. The United
States pursues the destiny that, in a
general way, was intended by its
ounders. Happily, the former Con- ,
ederates are as patriotic as any citi-
ems. A man of Southern birth is
resident. The party that bore the
hief responsibilities of the Union s
ause would respond to any new and 1
yorthy call. 1t will come back but '
leantime its love of country is just '
he same.

Small Sums Now Deposited Expected

$20,5O0,0OO; gift to the city of Evans
Vile, Ind, $2O,O0O,OO0
These two gifts, made by Adolph
Meier, wealthy Indianan, will be
available in the year 2123 A. D. They
are the strangest gifts ever made to
an Indiana city. The $20,500,000 for
the care and relief of dumb animals
will be the principal and accrued com

which has been deposited in a local
bank by Melzer, and which will have
grown to that amount in 210 years
from today. The $20,000,000 which
Evansville will get, will be the prin-

on $1,000 deposited by Melzer and
available in $50 years.

that the funds shall be allowed to stay
