WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. -
Public indignation has been thor
oughly aroused by the unwarrantedl
prices charged at this time for meats
said Assistant Secretary of Agriculture
Blngham today. when there was al
scarcity Of corn and cattle ruled af1
nigh prices there was some excuse for
the price demanded for meat. but now
the price of cattle has been greatly re-.
duced, and there is no good reason
why the price of meat should not be
correspondingly reduced. 1.-THE small
supply of cattle at Chicago last sum-
mer sent prices up until they reached
the highest figures of the year-prices
higher than had before been reached in
twenty years. Last month the glut in
the cattle market at Chicago caused
prices to recede to the lowest recently
reached, and cattle were sold for s4.75
to $5.25 in December that would have
brought $S.25 to $S.75 at the highest
time of the year.
I'm view Of the fact that the reports
indicate large supply of cattle on
hand in Chicago and other markets,
and that the wholesale price of cattle |
has been reduced very greatly and alsoi
that the large packers of Chicago'
have reduced the price, it seems
to me corresponding reduction
should be shown in the retail prices.
If the people will awaken to the sit
uation and assert their rights now
that there is plenty of corn and no
valid excuse for fancy prices, relief
will, believe, promptly follow

ASIATIC PLAGUE
SPREADING TERROR
Grows More Virulent at Ma
zatlan = People File
From the City.

MAZATLAN, Mex, Jan 1.-Exami-
nation seems to show that the disease
now affecting this city is Asiatic
plague, for microscopic investigation,
1t is said, proves that bubonic pest ba-
cilli are in the blood of those who have
the disease. The plague has grown
virulent within the last orty-eight
hours and the alarm, which had begun
in some measure to abate, has return
ed with force. The people are fleeing
from the city at the rate of 800 day,
and 5000 persons have already gone.
More than so per cent of the persons
attacked are women.
The news of the recrudescence of the
plague at this point has reached the
interior towns of the state and is
causing a panic. Cordons of armed
men have been placed around the
towns to prevent the entrance of any,
one from Mazatlan.

Clark Jr., wife of the youngest son of
Senator w. A Clark, died today after a
lingering illness, almost helpless from
the first, from septicaenia following
the birth Of her baby boy on Dec. 2.
Since that time she suffered several
sinking spells, but rallied sfrom each
and talked cheerfully and hopefully to
her young husband and friends, but
yesterday afternoon she again began
to grow worse, and late in the evening
the doctors realized that she was dying
and her friends and members of the
family were summoned. She remained
conscious until within two hours of the
end and several times recognized some
of those about her. Senator Clark has
been summoned from New York and
he left that city today Until he ar

Mrs. Clark was but twenty three
years of age, having been born near
Pittsburg Feb. 10, 1880. She came to
Butte with her parents when a child.
She was married to young Clark on
June 10, 1901, and they travelled all
over the world on their wedding trip.
She was one of the. most popular and
charitable women in Butte. Unusual
interest was created throughout the
country by the birth of the baby which

Clark offered reward of $1,000, 900 to
the first grandson born to him, and the

SOLUTION DEPENDS
ON ALLIED POWERS
Their Fault if Settlement Is Not Reach
ed, Says Castro.

CARACAS, Jan. There have been
persistent rumors in official circles and
generally throughout Caracas since
yesterday that President Castro had
refused to agree to the proposals of
the allies to refer the Venezuelan is
sues to The Hague This is not true.
The chief executive declares he wants
only fair treatment. 1t was clear from
what President Castro said today that
he believes it would be easy to reach a
full settlement of the entire contro-
versy. President Castro said:
IF a settlement is not reached it
will be because settlement forms no
part Of the plan of the allies. In this
case the prolongation of the present
situation would be disastrous for all
concerned. The solution of the pres
ent difficulty depends more on the al
lied powers than on Venezuela
The arbitration propositions of the
foreign powers and the counter propo-
sitions of Venezuela exchanged through
Minister Bowen yesterday are said by
high Venezuelan authority to be cas-
lily reconcilable.

ROME, Jan. 1.-Foreign Minister
Prinetti this afternoon received
through Ambassador Meyer, Secretary
Hays note communicating President
CaStro's acceptance of The Hague ar
bitration in principle, but with an ad-
ditional proposition which the govern
ment at Washington does not support
The foreign office considers this adj
ditional proposition as not likely Of
acceptance. Communications on this
subject are now being exchanged with
Germany and Great Britain.
BERLIN, Jan. President Cas-
tro's reply to the powers through Unit
ed States Minister Bowen is sub
Stantially an unqualified acceptance Of
their proposals to arbitrate and the &C
companying conditions. The foreign
office here received his answer today
and is satisfied with it's spirit A fur
Their interchange of views preparatory
to signing the protocol will take place
in Washington. The only really i'm
portant question to be settled is what
shall be done with the blockade A
continuance Of the blockade is relied
upon to hasten the conclusion of the
arbitration preliminaries, especially on
the part of Venezuela.
BRUSSELS, Jan. 1t is said here
that an arrangement has been con-
cluded with Great Britain and Ger
many to submit the Belgian and Dutch
claims against Venezuela to the inter-
national peace court at The Hague at
the same time the Anglo German
claims against the South American re-
public are taken to that tribunal.
CARACAS, Jan. 1.-The report that
the government sustained a defeat in
the recent fight with the revolutions
lists at Barquisimeto is untrue. The
government was victorious at Bar
quisimeto and that town, as well as
San Carlos and Tinaquillo, was recap
tured from the rebels.

hard labor, through no direct fault of
his own. Keep the capable man down
and you may level the incapable up.
But this the twentieth century will not
do. This democracy will not do, and
this it is not now doing. Sir Henry
Wayne describes the progress of civili-
cation as the movement from status
to contract. This means movement
from the mass to the man, from tradi-
ton to democracy.
80 in this strenuous and complex
age, this age of fierce democracy
what have we to do, and with what
manner of men shall we do it? Young
men of the twentieth century, will your
times find place for you? Plenty to
do in every direction and all the space
can take would be filled by a mere
enumeration. In agriculture a whole
great empire is yet to be won in the
arid West, and the West that is not
arid and the East that never was, must
be turned into one vast market garden.
The twentieth century will treat a
farm as a friend and it will yield re-
turns for such friendship. In the
twentieth century vast regions will be
reclaimed to civilization, not by inn
perialism, but by permeation. The
table lands of Mexico, the plains Of
Manchuria, the Pampas of Argentine,
the moOrs of Northern Japan, all these
offer a welcome to the Anglo Saxon
farmer.
Science of Medicine Advancing.
I'm medicine the field of action is
growing infinitely broader, now that it's
training is securely based on science,
and the divining-rod no longer classed
among it's implements of precision.
Not long ago, it is said, a young medi-
cal student in New York committed
suicide, leaving behind this touching
phrase: Il die because there is room
for no more DOCTORS" And this just
now, when, for the first time, it is
worth While to be a doctor. Room for
no more doctors, no doubt of the kind
to which he belOnged-men who know
nothing and care nothing for science
and it's methods, who have no feeling
for their patients and whose prescrip-
lions are given with no more con-
science than goes into the fabrication
of an electric belt or the compromising
of a patent medicine.
What is true in medicine applies
also to the profession of law. The pet
tifogger must give place to the jurist.
The law is not a device for getting
around the statutes. 1t is the science
and art of equity. The lawyers of the
juries. They will save their clients
from need of a judge or jury. In every
civilized nation the lawyers must be
the law givers. The sword has given
place to the green bag. The demand of
the twentieth century will be that the
statutes coincide with equity. This
condition educated lawyers can bring
about. To know equity is to be its de-
fender.

hour listening to their representa-
tions and commenting upon them.
Then the secretary escorted his call
ers to the white, house, where they
were received by President Roosevelt
and again set out their views and
listened to what he had to say in re-
