DEAR MEAT DOES
NOT AID FARMERS

Washington. Feb. lin discussing
The continued high price OF beef. to-
day. Col. J. II. Bingham. assistant
pccrc,ary Of agriculture. said:
with cattle selling Mt the present
low prices. meat ought to be from
twenty-five TO forty per cent. less than
now asked by retail dealers. II Is all
nonsense to say that the worlds popu-
lation has grown far ahead of It's avail
able meat supply. II the farmers are
assured Of reasonable prices for their
cattle. they will supply NIL that the
consumers demand. without the slight
est doubt whatever. II necessary. the
meat suppl. In this country can be
doubled and II would be n great ad-
vantage to the farmers II the grain and
feed raised were put into cattle. hogs
and sheep.
'1f TIE consumer could buy meat at
prices that would correspond with the
price paid the farmer for his cattle and
sheep. It would induce liberal buying.
and the consumption Of meats would
undoubtedly he materially increased
and farmers would be induced to in
crease their herds.
"The claim that this drifting of pop
ulation to the cities has almost dou-
bled the price per head OF cattle in two
years Is an obvious absurdity. Ac-
cordlng TO statistics the price OF good
to choice steers In the Chicago market
in December. 1901. was $3.50 to 81.
whereas last December in the same
market price for the same grade of
cattle was s5.C5 to $3.50.

undcrstocd to be n modification OF the
allies contention that they be rceos-
nixed M vcncxuela's preferred claim
ants In the payment Of the indemnity.
The plan suggested provides that for n
short period. perhaps six months or
year. Great Britain. Germany and Italy
shall receive exclusively thirty per
cent. OF the customs receipts Of the
ports OF Porto Cabciio and In Gunyra.
and that nj the end Of this period. the
exact length Of which Is yet open to de-
ciSion. all the claimant nations be
placed ON the same footing. and Mt the
expiration OF that time the thirty per
cent Of the receipts Of these two ports
be divided among all the claimant na-
tlons In ratio based on the amount OF
each nations claim.
The plan II regarded as compromise
which will enable the allies To with

peadwaod smeI.er Strike.

Deadwood. S. D.. Feb. 1.-The Gold
en- Reward smeitcr at Deadwood. one
of the largest OF It's kind in the coun.
try, is idle. the employees having gone
on strike. Nearly 1000 are affected.
the greater part OF them being out OF
work at this time. and the strike will
result In throwing more men out. as
the Golden Reward mines will be
closed of necessity.
The cause Of the strike was the lay
ing off of one man employed as help
or on the feed floor of the smelter.
The men claimed it increased their
labor. Eight who claimed of the ac-
tion of the company in laying on the
helper were discharged by the super.
intendent, and the employees are de-
manding the reinstatement of these
men as well as the helper. Wages
have nothing to do with the trouble,
the Golden Reward smelter men re-
ceiving the highest wages in tse coun.
try for that class OF work.
