MEAT INSPECTION
ORDINANCE SIGNED
Blue Stamp Mill 6how Hereafter Whether
Law Has Been Complied With.
The meat inspection ordinance, passed by
the City Council last Monday, was signed
by Mayor Moore yesterday afternoon. The
ordinance will become a law Tuesday.
The ordinance, which was drawn up by
the Board of Health and the health and
sanitation committee of the City Council,
is modeled after the requirements of the
United States Government In its inspection
of meat.
As soon as the law goes into effect every
pound of meat aold In Seattle must be in
spected. Whatever meat comes from out
side, the state is: inspected by the United
States Government. All meat slaughtered
in Seattle and to be used for home con
sumption will be inspected by the city.
The local inspectors will stamp all meat
inspected with blue indelible ink. The
stamp will be similar to that of the United
States Government. Penalties of fine and
Imprisonment are provided for any person
who sells meat that has not been inspected.
All cattle slaughtered here will be sub
jected to an ante-mortem and post-mortem
examination. Cattle belonging to farmers
-of the vicinity and destined for consumption
in Seattle are to be slaughtered at Frye &
Bruhn's abattoir. The charges for killing
are fixt by the ordinance.
J Occasional misleading references are made in local ads.
anent conditions in other Pacific Coast cities regarding Gov
ernment inspection of meats.
f The accompanying clipping from Sunday's Seattle Post
Intelligencer must settle all doubts as to what Seattle decides
best for her meat consumption.
J Government inspection of meats is-opposed -in Portland by
certain few parties for selfish reasons. WE WONDER WHY?
Jf Are the carefully-inspected meats demanded by Seattle too
good for Portland folk? We wot not!
