Booker T.. Washington, writing in

timely summary of The Fruits Of In

when the discussion of the race ques
tion is even more than usually animat-
ed and acrimonious, Mr.. Washington's
impressive resume of the things which
have actually been accomplished in a
few years of educational work should
furnish food for thought to many.
Mr.. Ray Stannard Bakers articles on
'"The Great Northwest which have
been appearing in The Century during
the past year, succeeding his series on
"The Great Southwest" which that
magazine published the year before,
will continue his notes on those regions
in occasional papers to appear during

Meat Trust Robbers.

A special from Omaha says that
farmers and stockmen of the west have
been robbed of millions of dollars in
the past six weeks by the meat trust,
and consumers in the east and south
have been robbed of still further mil
lions by the same hands.
The big packers have, by their agree
uents to refrain from bidding on
stock yards, beaten prices down almost
to the breaking point, and at the same
time have raised the prices on dressed
meats to eastern consumers until the
prices paid are far above what they
were one year ago, when the meat trust
is supposed to have been formed.
The packing trust is paying today
40 per cent less for pork than one year
ago, while the retailers are paying the
packers Is per cent more for dressed
pork than one year ago, making the in
creased profits of the trust, by gouging
both consumer and producer, 55 per
cent on pork. ....-n.. 49,.
For beef steers the packers are pay
ing 25 per cent less than last year;
while the selling price is 10 per cent
higher. The increased profit to the
trust is IS per cent.
'Do you know that hogs have declin-
ed so cents within a week?" was asked
of an Omaha retail butcher. ..
"That don't interest u.s." was his re-
ply. "The price of hogs has nothing
to do with the price the packers make
us pay for dressed meats - i =

With our great growth Of population
we must consider how the people must
be employed SO that they may be in
telligent, prosperous and happy. We
sell so or 70 per cent of ouI entire pro-
duets to one country-Great Britain.
If for any reason that country were not
able to buy from us, our people would
realize very quickly the situation they
are in. Where can we sell our wheat
crop? In France. Italy, Austria and
Germany we are met with hostile
legislation. We are not welcome. 10
take our wheat to Russia would be like
carrying Goals to Newcastle. That
country has a surplus to sell. The
Asiatic rice eaters are as fond Of flour
as the white race and as ready to eat it
if they can get it at fair price.
Russia is not in a position to compete
with us at all, even if the wheat and
flour were carried for the naked cost OF
their transportation to- the government
What applies in this respect to our
wheat applies to cotton from the south
and to every other article we export,
even to iron and steel. -.-. ... ,,....tr~f
If our home market, which we have
nursed so long for iron and steel in
dustries, is Of so much value let us now

agricultural interests and not leave
them where they are today, without an
iota of assistance FROM any point. il a

we can compete with other nations is
because we have greater facilities for

from the Pacific coast to China and
Japan we would not ship one bushel OF
wheat from the Pacific coast to Europe
and with chance to bring every Cal

would carry millions and millions d

NO NEED FOR UNIONS
IN THE PHILIPPINES
Trade Organizations Would Tend
to lnjure White Labor.

THE time for trade unions has not
yet come in the Philippines" said a
prominent Government official yester-
day, while discussing the trouble be-
tween Public Printer Leech of the Phil
ippine Government Printing Office and
G.. A. Tracey. Though 1 do not for a
moment suppose that Mr.. Tracey lost his
position in the Philippine printing Of
fee because he advocated a printers
union in Manila. it is nevertheless fact
that labor unions. which are primarily
protective organizations. are not only
not needed in the islands, but at this
time would be decidedly out of place.
I'm the first place. white labor is 80
scarce over there that there is no dan
ger of the laboring man being ground
down. He can, in fact, command the
wages he desires. The native labor in
the islands cannot compare with white
labor. Therefore, to form a union and
admit the natives 20 the same footing
with themselves would mean the cheap
ening of the white mems labor
Two good reasons exist why the
Philippine government should object to
the organization of labor unions In the
archipelago. One is the fact that If the
labor union was formed and native la
borers were not admitted to its ranks.
the Filipinos would be extremely jeal-
Gus. and bad feeling engendered. II, on
the other hand. the natives were ad-
mitted to the union, the Government
would be forced 20 pay them as high
wages as il does to the white laborers,
although they are not nearly so DrO-
ficient. AT present the natives are paid
according to their ability. and. in con-
sequence, do not receive one-haf The
wages paid TO American laborers. The
Government pay rolls also show that
they are paid in Mexican silver dollars,
while the Americans are paid on the
gold basis"
