Profitable Tomato Packing

The canning season on the Eastern
Shore of Maryland practically came to a
close last week, after probably the most
successful season i'll the history of the
packing industry of Maryland. At
nearly every cannery the pack Is al
most twice as large as that last season.
The main cause for this large increase
was that the season has been an un-
usually long one, for up to the present
time there have been no "killing" white
frostS.
Last spring the Gamers endeavored
to make contracts with farmers and to-
mato growers at the old pricee-S5 to 81
per ton. Finding that they could not
get the farmers to plant at those prices
they offered 81 per ton, but were still
unsuccessful. In the meantime many
of the large growers of the different
counties on the Eas tern Shore held a
meeting and decided they would not
plant unless they got IS per ton. At
first the Gamers strenuously objected to
such an advance, but the growers still
refused to contract for less than SS. The
Gamers finally gave IN, and many of
the growers planted larger acreage than
ever before.
4 number of growers report that their
yield has averaged from 10 to 20 tons
per acre, which at SS per ton resulted III
a return for them from $50 to $3.50 per
acre
The labor employed at these canneries
is largely IA foreign element, from Bal
timore, and live in barracks near the
packing house during the canning sea-
sou, after which they return TO their
homes. In past seasons the women who
peel the tomatoes have been paid cents
per bucket, but this year they demanded
an increase of cent per bucket. which
was granted ut most of the canneries.
At an Elkton cannery one woman was
able to peel so buckets per day, max
ing 50 90 The average woman peeled
40 to 30 buckets
Owing TO the large tomato yield, at
many OF the canneries the Bohemian
help and available native white help
was not sufficient to do the work, and
the packers were compelled to hire ne
gro help At once trouble began to
brew between the foreigners and me-
groes, which resulted i'll several strikes
by the foreigners, who refused to work
with the negroes. In most instances
the trouble was adjusted by the whites
and blacks being given separate apart
ments i'll which to work Bditimo'c SIM.

by Mr. John f. Hurst and the speakers

The issues involved i'll this congress
There is an irrcpreSsible conflict be-
tween the principles of the republican
and the democratic parties.
1.-The one is the advocate of ''protec.
tion for projections sake" of tariff
which fosters favored industries and
panders to the greed of the few against
the interests and welfare of the many.
Such tariff is the mother of trusts.
The democratic party is opposed to
high protective tariff. Antagonism to
trusts is the logical position of the de-
mocracy and Il cardinal tenet of its
creed.
1.-The evils of these trusts are so man.
ifest that the half-blind can see them
high prices to the consumer. reduction
of wages to the employed. and overcap-
italization by watering the stock.

the close of the eighteenth century, that

revolution destroyed the nobility of
France in its progress. its cause was

al for the State made a great speech
among the good things uttered by him
was this:
"What is this thing we are now fight

contest between monopolies on the one
hand and the people on the other; be-
tween centralized combinations, created

can party on the one hand and the con-
sumers of the country ON the other; be-
tween the business honor and the bust.
ness integrity of the country, striving
for livelihood, and these corrupt
alliances draining the life-blood from
every avenue of trade and every mart of
commerce.
"You and / know that few years
ago a man in any line of business could
begin with small capital and by industry
ahilstx.
but the day for such things has passed,
and now the giant trusts have crushed
out all small dealers. If they accom-
plished any good whatever. as the
President seems to think they do,
would be in favor of withdrawing all
opposition to them and of giving them
the broadcast latitude within which to
extend their operations.
If by combining the resources of
capital they lowered the prices of con-
sumption, if by creating new enterprises
they enlarged the field of employment,
if they increased the wages of labor, if
they contributed i'll any manner to the
welfare or prosperity of the country /
say let them advance with steady step
and plant their acquisitions in every
Common wealth over the undisputed
territory of the Union.
RAISE PRICES, LOWER WAGES.
"But they do none of these things.
They raise prices, they lower wages.
they contract the field of employment,
they throttle competition, they monop-
oliZe the wealth of the land, they with
draw it from the channels of circula-
tion, and in their grasp and greed for
profit and for power they despoil the
earnings and impoverish the homes of
our countrymen. Applause
"Worse than this, they bribe and cor
rupt the powers that oppose them; they
buy their way 10 favor and TO position.
and when they are. driven from one
State they obtain their franchises i'll
another and then return with insolence
TO pursue their cllling in the State from
which they We're banished."
