The Intermountain Catholic. (Salt Lake City [Utah] ;) 1899-1920, 1903-05-02

John D. Rockefeller, jr., has been
telling his Sunday school class that he
was sick at heart because the people
of Mexico attended churches where
they worshiped not the true God, but
an invention of man. The true devo-
ton of Catholics is not comprehensive
by the little minds of such bigoted
Mammon worshipers as he. The poor
never enter the luxurious, semi-private
clubhouse he calls church, the doors
of which are closed for months every
year while its fashionable members
disport themselves at the seaside or in
the mountains. Such church lacks
the sign by which the church of God
is to be known through all time, the
presence of the poor within its portals.

a Striking Business Fact.

The treasury statistics for the fiscal
year 1908 show large increase dur
ing that period in the imports of manu-
facturers' materials--in other words,
that more raw materials were bought
abroad than ever before. The value
of these imports was nearly $oOOOOO,-
600. the value of the crude products be-
ing 1915, 100000, the increase for the
year being about $5O,0o0,O0O. The
value of partially manufactured raw
material was $114,0O0,O0O, the increase
being 23,00O,000..
: Of the crude materials the increase
of $50,000,000 In value was divided
among raw silk, india rubber, wool.
chemicals, fibers, tin and copper. In
partially manufactured materials the
largest increase was in iron and steel,
being $24,OO0,000. Pig iron increased
$l3.000,000, scrap iron over $1,0OO.000
and steel about $L000O00.
one thing certain Is that this heavy
increase in imports of manufacturers
materials did not result in curtailing
industrial operations in this country
in the production of raw materials,
nor did it check the production of fin
ishcd products in any way. In 1902
for instance, the United States produc-
ed 40 per cent of the worlds supply of
pig iron, as it did also OF steel products
The Importation of raw materials
and those partially manufactured. ii
seems, was stimulated last year by the
unusual and unprecedented demand
upon the Industrial establishments of
this country. In other words, Ameri-
can manufacturers were unable to sup
ply the demand for their products,w with
out going to foreign countries for ma
tcrials which could not be supplied
here.
Could there be more striking evi-
dence of the wonderful Industrial de-
vcl1pment that has taken place in the
United States within the past six or
seven years New York Commercial.

REAL. CHEAPNESS.
Rot the Kind That Has Reduced
Millions to Hunger.

Rot the Kind That Has Reduced
Millions to Hunger.
In the second section of his interest
inc talks to first voters Mr.. John p.
younr takes up the subject of the
Cheap Loaf" which the British work
inaman was promised as the result or
free trade This promise of half q
century ago reads strangely today IN
the light of the grim fact that nearly
onc-third of the population OF Great
Britain is suffering for want OF food.
No longer ago than June ., 19O3, Sir
Henry Campbell-Bannerma stanch
free trader and a bitter opponent of
Mr.. Chamberlain's preferential plan OF
treating the colonies, said in speech
at Perth:
"In this country we know, thanks to
the investigations of Mr.. Seebohm
Powntree and Mr. Charles Booth, that
there is about 80 per cent of our pop
ulation underfed and on the verge of
hunger, Thirty per cent of 41,OO0,O0o
comes to something over 100000"
Facing such conditions as these, 1t Is
small wonder that month or two
later Mr. Chamberlain should have de-
clared that the main question Is not
the cost of bread, but the ability to
buy bread. The cheap loaf has proved
anything but cheap to those who are
H. out money to buy it at any price.
Free trade holds up cheapness as the
prime consideration: Cheap food first.
cheap wages as d resultant and cheap
products as a means of underselling
the rest of the world. Twelve million
cut of fl 100000 Britons are on the
verge of starvation. That is how free
trade and the cheap loaf have worked
Contrast this with the conditions in
country where to secure cheapness Is
not the chief end and aim. On this
point Mr.. Young's pungent comment Is
as follows:
british free traders say that the
United States is a dear country. So II
is, and it is so because the standard or
living of the masses is high. And the
standard is high because higher wages
are demanded in this country. But
the American worker attains real
cheapness; he gets things. That is the
touchstone."

is a Case Of Mistaken Identity.
Trenton. n. J.. Oct. 5.-Onicials OF
the American Bridge company are in
teresting themselves in the case Of
Albert Steiner, a former employe,
who went under the name Of Charles
Lewis. and who was sentenced to a
term of 10 years in the Massachusetts
state prison at Charleston. Steiner
claims that his arrest and conviction
is one Of mistaken identity, and the
officials Of the bridge company here
are inclined to believe his story.
An investigation will be made at
once. and If Stelner's story is found
TO be true an effort will be made to
secure his pardon
Up to August 22 Steiner was EN-
ployed at the American Bridge Works
in this city. On the latter date he
drew $3.50 on account and went
away for a few days trip. The next
heard of him was letter to j. Henry
Klein. the company's paymaster, say
ing he had been arrested on August
% on a charge Of highway robbery
alleged to have been committed on
August Is, on which day Steiner, ac-
cording TO the company's records,
was working in Trenton. Steiner re
quested an affidavit from Mr. Klein
setting forth this fact The aiiidaYl'
was sent, but Steiner writes back
that before the affidavit reached him
the 10 years sentence was imposed
despite his plea for delay. Steiner
claims also that the sentence was
made heavy because of other onenses
which he was alleged to have com
mitted.
Steiner is so years Of age and OF
frai build, and the American Bridge
company officials here do not believe
him capable of having committed
highway robbery II is not known
here where in Massachusetts, the
crime is alleged to have been com
mitted.
