KTRIICKS HURT MARKETS.
Comparative receipts of livestock
during July at five Western markets,
at -reported to the department of
commerce and labor through Its
bureau of statistics, show the extent
to which this branch of domestic
commerce ha been affected by the
packing house strikes.
Comimrlng July of this year with
July of last year, there lias been a
decrease of over a million head of
livestocks or from 2,820,046 head In
190S, to 1,554,451 head In 1904 at.the
five markets of Chicago, Kansas City,
Omaha, St. Louts and St. Joseph.
Cattle receipts fell off 42 per cent;
calves, 54 per cent; hogs, 39 per cent;
sheep, 40 per cent, and horses and
mules 3 per cent. In the number of j
cars of stock Handled, tne montn s

year, the figures both as to the num

month of the two in the livestock
trade. In this case, 1,151,217 head,
or 42 per cent less were received
than In June, and 21, US curs less
were received, or un average loss of
13SS cars per working day from the
beginning of the strike to the end of
the month.
The returns from the markets
taken separately show as a rule that
while receipt fell off rapidly, local
consumption wus still more notably
reduced. At Chicago, for instance,
city use and loeul consumption were
only one-half Unit of July, 1903, at
Kansas City less than half, at Omaha
60 per cent less, und at St. Joseph 59
per cent.
SPRINKLE MORE STREETS.
It seems that the city council could
break over the iron-clad street sprink
ling rules to relieve the terrible situ
ation now found In some of the real- '
denoe streets.
The heavy travel has made the
dust almost unbearable In the out
lying residence districts and yet fami
lies are compelled to suffer from it
without an effort on part of the coun
cil to relieve the situation, even tem
porarily. It was said that this was to be a
business administration for the city,
and that conditions were going to be
Improved In many ways. New homes
are reaching out in every direction,
and yet the sprinkling wagons are
strangers to them. These new homes
pay part of the taxes of the city and
help' bear the expense, but get none
of the benefits. i
Instead of running wagons, trip ,
after trip, up und down Bluff street,
where there Is but little travel, und
very little dust, the same expense
could be made to cover South Thomp
son, High, Tustln, South Main and
other hill streets, where the dust is
Intolerable and the travel heavy.
There may bo more work attached to
sprinkling on the hill, but the city
pays the contractor and the money
should bo made to cover the widest
possible extent of territory und the
saving of horseflesh bv a nald con
tractor should not be allowed to
i statu! In the wny of better sprinkling
service.
i The people tire paying the contrnc
i tor for making mud by frequent runs
I over level streets, close In, while the
bulk of the residence district Is suf
fering for n slmre of this wtisto.
There Is H growing need for more
i street sprinkling, mid It can be se
cured by distributing the teams on
...
.
hills, extending the service now
rendered
without Increased cost, byj
making less trips on the level streets
where It Is easy work, and by caus
ing some of the water now absolute
ly wasted, to be applied where there
- ) is dust surrounding homes that pay
taxes.
N. H. Darton of the geological sur
, vey. who visited this city yesterday
to Investigate the possibility for In
i creased water supply for Pendleton,
says that nearly every thrifty com-
munlty In the country Is making the
i same urgent demand upon the gov
j eminent that Pendleton Is now muk
i lng Information on' better water
' sources, more plentiful supply and
i permanent provision for the future.
I Cities neglect to come Into control of
, sufficient water supply early In their
settlement. Private corporations ,
gain control of all available sources,
and then as the cities extend and
grow, they are without adequate sup- j
ply. Mr. Darton says the government !
has calls for assistance in securing I
water supplies that It cannot possl-
bly meet. Cities In the West are cry- j
lng for relief everywhere. Salt Lake
City Is now tunneling for fresh wa
ter, the government having set aside
a reserve for that purpose. Colorado
Springs Is tapping the base of Pike's
Peak in hopes of securing a supply '
free from pollution, and numerous i
smaller cities are searching for a suf- I
flcleut flow to meet pressing needs.
Health and home-bulldiug depend on
the city water supply, and the curse '
of modern civilization is that private '
corporations are allowed to possess 1
exclusive control and use of water
sources upon which the very life of '
the oommunlty depends.

Red is the color of danger,
whether on the semaphore
or on the skin. When tne
face is reddened by eruptions,
when boils break out on the
body, or the angry red of
sores and ulcers is displayed
in the flesh, it is nature's
1 danjrer aiirnal. The blood is
obstructed and tainted by
impurities, and there can be
no safety until the blood is
made pure.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery purifies the blood,
and removes the effete matter which
clogs and corrupts it. It cures pim
ples, boils, eczema, scrofula, cores,
ulcers and other consequences of
impure blood.

Accept no substitute for Doctor
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
There is no other medicine which is
" just as good " for diseases of the
blood ami the eruptions which are
caused by the blood's impurity.

SOCIALISM IS GROWING.
Stenllug chickens, six years.
Stealing $54,000, IS months.
An Iowa bank president stole G4,
000 of his depositors' money.
The Judge in passing sentence upon
this man gave him 18 months In the
penitentiary.
In the same penitentiary to which
tills bank president Is committed n
man Is serving six years for stealing
a chicken.
In giving an nccouut of the rich
prisoner's demeanor the press reports
say he "took his sentence very calm
ly." No doubt of it.
And so did the Judge who sentenced
him take the sentence calmly too
calmly to suit the sense of Justice of
decent people.
It Is said that socialism Is on the
Increase In this country. There Is no
doubt of It. And the reasons are
plain. One renson may easily be dis
covered In the modern Instance Just
recited. The socialists can hold up
the deadly parallel at the head of
this editorial and say, "That Is Justice
as It is exemplified under your pres
ent system of society. How do you
like It?"
As a penalty for the failure of the
battleship Ohio to make the speed of
IS knots an hour, the government de
ducted J19.000 from the contract
price of the vessel in accepting her at
San Francisco, Saturday. She made
a maximum speed of 17:S3 knots.

A NIXKIiACE OP LOVE.
No rubies of red for my lady
No Jewel that glitters and charms,
Rut the light of the skies In a little
one's eyes
And a necklace of two little arms.
Of two little firms tlmt are clinging
(Oh, ne'er was n necklace like
this.)
And this wealth o the world and
love's sweetness luipearled
In the joy of a little one's kiss.
A necklace of love for my lady,
That wus linked by the angels
above.
No other but this and the sweet
tender kiss.
That sealeth a little one's love.
