Just at present the government has set in mo
tion its machinery to determine whether the cost of
living is being increased upon the pretext of the con
ditions existing in Europe. It is claimed the great
advance in foodstuffs is wholly unwarranted and that
the war scare has given a pretext to controllers of
foodstuffs which they are using to line their pockets
and rob the people of this country of millions of dol
lars. It is claimed if sufficient proof is secured, crim
inal prosecution of the great plunderers will be made.
Take wheat, for instance. While flour has taken a
great jump upwards, wheat exports are practically
nothing, and millions of bushels are piled up in ele
vators or in freight cars strung across the continent.
Secretary Redfield speaks plainly as follows: “If the
present temporary stoppage of trade with foreign coun
tries is made the basis for an attempt in this country
to put up prices artifically, it is unpatriotic. I may
say, even damnable." Special agents of the depart
ment of justice throughout the country are busily col
lecting evidence, and we may not be surprised if a
number of masters of high finance in this country get
into serious trouble over their attempt to rob the peo
ple.
Judging from the State Journal’s editorial atti
tude, in criticising both the republican and democra
tic platforms, and praise of the progressive platform,
we should not be surprised to see that paper going
over to the Teddy party, body, soul and breeches, in
the near future. The following editorial from last
Friday’s edition illustrates the point we make above:
Judge Wray of the progressive party makes a
criticism of the old parties that they cannot escape.
Their platforms do not amount to much this year.
While the progressive platform was grappling with
about every problem in the universe, the democrats
and republicans at Columbus and Lincoln were do
ing a careful stunt of tight rope walking. The old
parties were trying to keep discordant elements from
making themselves heard, and the result was har
moniously silent platforms. There is good meat in
both platforms, matters on which nobody disagreed.
But neither party attempts to lay down a coherent
political philosophy. Both abandoned advanced
ground taken two years ago.
The war situation in the far east assumes no bet
ter phase fast. Sunday’s dispatches say great battles
are being fought along the Danube, the fighting said
,to extend nearly the entire length of the Austrian
Servian frontier. Monday’s dispatches tells of Japan
sending an ultimatum to Germany to withdraw her
battleships from the Orient within a week’s time, and
also demands certain territory be restored to China
or Japan will act. It is said the impending battle
mentioned above will involve millions of men and ex
tend for more than 250 miles. From all that may be
gleaned from dispatches, peace may not be expected
for a long time.

Evidently, the meat packers are getting frighten
ed over the proposed investigation of the government
regarding the elevation of meat prices, for j) drop of
one to six cents in Omaha immediately followed the
report of government intervention. The meat barons,
however, insist the advance was not their fault, but
was on account of scarcity of receipts, trying to lav
the blame on the producers and shippers.
The big slump in taxes on imports, caused by the
European war has put this country a hundred millions
of good hard money to the bad. Congress is now con
. sidering-how to raise revenue to make up the deficit.
There is strong talk of making a war tax to tide over
the present.
Thirty-six thousand dozen eggs were shipped
from New York to England the 14th instant the cost
price being 25c per dozen. Now watch the price of
eggs go soaring with meat and sugar. J

IS HOW MCCARTHY'S MAHAGER. 1
- i
t>ome time since, when Tommy s
McCarthy, the northwest heavy- j
weight Champion, whose home is .
at Ravenna, was fie re while home I
on a visit, he promised us a line !
when he had anything interesting 1
along his pugilistic life. We re- ■
ceived a few days since a letter _
from Tommy at Lewiston, Mont.,
where he is at present in training.
He writes he has nothing of im- .
portance in view so far until La
bor Day when he will take on
either A1 Norton in Butte, or
Tom McMahon in Lewiston,
wherever he gets the best offer.
Apropos of McCarthy's career as
a pugilist, which promises to be of
much interest in the future, as he
is a challenger for the world's
title, and may develop into the
coming “white hope. '* we give
below an article taken from a
Lewiston paper telling how Hank
Irslinger, who is now manager i
for Tommy became so through an
engagement with the latter, and
was put to sleep by Tommy, who
relieved Hank of a few of his mo
lars as evidence of the fine work
he was doing in dentistry.
Those who were at the ringside
on the memorable bccasion referred
to in the following from St. Paul
will find a lot to grin about, espe
cially with respect to the lost teeth.
Hank Irslinger, wrestler and fight
impresario, who was in St. 'Paul
about 10 days ago. for a mat ar
: gument with Theo, Peter, met a
reporter while in the Minnesota
city and provided the news writer
with his personal story of how lie
met Tommy McCarthy, and later
I became his manager. Irslinger, it
will be remembered, fought Tom
McCarthy at the last of the Uvan
ni shows. Tommy putting Hank
completely out in a piece of a
round. A smash to the mouth
rocked Irslinger to dreamland and
jarred him loose from a tooth,
which spilled on the floor. It will
be further remembered that when
the would-be fighter recovered
sufficiently to observe any thing
at all he wanted to continue the
fight, cussing his seconds for not
letting him go to the center of the
ring, and expressing surprise
when his handlers told him it was
all over. Hank’s story to the
St. Paul man is a good one, but
the wrestler evidently forgot his
first question after the scrap:
“Did he win?’’ which was follow
ed soon after with a query con
cerning his missing tooth.
Here's Hank's St. Paul yarn
right on the hat:
"Henry Irslinger, doughty little
German wrestler, who was de
feated by Theodore Peter here, is
a past master in the mat game,
but as a boxer, says the Pionee%
Press, he has his limitations. He
didn't know this he admits until
he boxed Tommy KcCarthy at
Great Falls. After that he knew
it so well that he took hold of Mc
Carthy and has managed him ever
since, ^ow he says Tommy is the
coming white hope champion and
to those who smile at this state
ment. Henry merely says: "Wait
and see."
Last summer during the lean
days of the wrestling days, Irs
linger decided to take up the fight
game, being, as' he thought, a
pretty nifity boxer himself. At
Lewiston he met Joe Uvanni, who
called himselfmiddleweight cham
pion'of Canada. He confided his
ambitions to Uvanni in a gymna
sium. and Uvanni promptly offer
ed to try him out. There was a
large crowd present when they
put on the gloves and Henry says
they still talk *bout the 10-round
battle that was fought there.
Uvanni broke Irslingers nose and
otherwise manhandled him, but
Henry was on his feet ready for
more when Uvanni decided he
had had enough. The Italian
promised to give Irslinger a
chance in a regular show at Great
Falls.
A little later he matched Irs
linger against a ring novice named
Tommy McCarthy. McCarthy
weighed 178 to Henry's 165 and
Irslinger says he wanted to quit
when he saw his adversary in the
ring, he was so big. His seconds,
however, told him to keep clineh
