Democrat has eole -cted sorae fir.ns which can be applied to Phit.nmoutii equally as well, and then deducting th" difference in freight, Piattsmouth dealers would lose from trn Ci nt to one dollar and thirty cents per ton. The people of our sister cities bays never appreciated what generous citizens Plattsmouth lias. Plattsmouth people may not gtt as much for corner lots a our neighbor, but for unstinted g'-nerosity, our equal is not often found. Now n conclusion let u-i state a fact that will relieve you a little. Since the river was frozen over the streets of Plattsmouth have been lined with loads of good hard wood from the Iowa side. This wood ii sold very low so that large numbers of the citizens have taken down their coal stoves and put up wood stoves. The result is an overstock of coal, and rather than carry it over, it is sold at 10.50 per ton. Come down and sit by our fire and quit wrangling over the matter.

"These six companies werelirst firgan ized for lenevol( nt puriMivs. and did worthy work in the early days of Chinese immigration by providing their peoplo with the necessities of life until employ ment could be obtained for them. During latter days, however, they have ul:::ot ceased their benevolent work, anil tin -ir function now is the utljiii Ueatioii of the personal dilTeienees of the im inU rs of the companies.

'I am told," said a Boston butcher, "that the people in the poorer parts of New York city buy the highest priced groceries, and that the meat men nay j they can sell the coarser cuts of meat to j the rich, but that people of moderate ! Jin iiiirj itx no in, in hi a j s- rii; thing from Washington and other cities. A friend of mine, :i man of wealth, wise, like his father before him, had long been noted as one cf the most jjenerotis 1kiio f actors of the poor in the city where he lives, and with whom I happened to bo talking about these matters, remarked: 'For my family I get the cheaper cuts of meat because they axe cheaper. My chil dren are satisfied wiih round steak and shoulder, even if they are not quite as tender and toothsome as sirloin. They are strong and healthy and understand that tilth fool is good enough for t heir parents ami is good enough for them.' "I question whether his gardener or bis coachman would be so entirely ready to accept such doctrine; and if the poor peoplo to whom in times of stress his money is given without stint are like man' others of their class, not a few of them would be, ill content with some of the food materials that appear regularly oa Ids table."
