Tom Sawyer has been outdonsI
The dream of Toms boyhood years
was to find buried treasure. and he
finally found it.
But down in Arizona a cowboy
discovered 100000 in gold. buried in
a hollow tree.
What would be your feelings IL
you found 100000? An enterprising
Minneapolis city editor once started
out q reporter on tour Of the city
TO ask prominent men what they
would do If they had a million dol
lars. cne unimaginative and cold
blOoded business man said he would
buy the reporters newspaper and
''fire the fool city editor.
But imagine yourself riding across
a lonely Arizona plain looking for
stray cattle. You casually note
hollow tree trunk. There is a spade
handle sticking from it. Perhaps the
spade is till of some use. It is worth
while getting of your horse to see?
Well you may need a spade some
day. Better pick 1t up. You dis
mount You reach for the spade.
Under II is an iron chest rusty with
ago. Your heart gives a jump. for
every man dreams OF buried treasure.
You open 1t. There it is. Gold! A
chestful Of it. Old Spanish doub-
loons-whateve a doubloon is-and
queer golden ornaments. Goodbye
work. Goodbye worry. Wealth, leis-
ure, and all the things that money
can buy. But wait a minute. Who
owns it, Then the discovery that
worry comes with wealth. How to
dispose Of it so nobody win suspect.
Then conscience speaks. II isn't your
money after all.
And the cowboy told about his
ind. What will be done with il re-
mains to be determined. The claims
to it must be settled. Also the story
may be denied within twenty-four
hours, for it sounds too good to be
srua
But meanwhile. what would you do
II You found 100000 In gold? The
Forum stan nearly came to blows

TARIFF, WAR, AND
MEAT TRADE.

significance III the changes that
have taken place in the meat
trade ot the cattle producing
countries OF South America III
the past four years.
Over 3O.OOO.OOO of dried beef
was consumed in the city OF Rio
de Janeiro, Brazil. during 1916.
The u. S. Consul General at that
place writes: "Untilrecently Arg.
entina. Paraguay, and Uruguay
were large suppliers of dried
beet to Brazil, but these mar
kets apparently have now turned
their attention to refrigerated
beef and export much less OF the
other article in consequence"
The reason why these countries
have turned their attention to
the refrigerated business is not
tar to seek, and the future OF this
business in its effect on our inn
import trade, under the Demo
cratic law, is not hard to predict.
During the calender year 1918.
nine months OF which WAS under
protection, no fresh beet came in
from Argentina or Uruguay. The
following year we imported from
those two uptries 256, 900, 900
pounds Of fresh beef and veal: in
1915, we got from them 100000
900 pounds, and last year 21,-
100 900 pounds.
i Why this accession and recess
ION? During 1914 fresh meats
were on the free list. We were
promised cheaper meats on that
account. and some OF us went
