The Great Cattle Exhibit.

The Washington times., 1904-07-28
No Settlement in Sight.

The Illinois State board OF arbitra-
ton received a rebuff from the pack
ers yesterday who fatty refused to
arbitrate, to permit no interior
ence from outsiders" as they termed
the State officials. That the strike
will be a fight to q finish is generally
agreed. The union has picketed the
stock yards, and not a meat wagon
left the district yesterday.
The packers have been rushing non
union workers into their plants as
fast as they can, and they claim 10
have 1000 in the stock yards. Ship
ments of cattle, however, have prac-
tically ceased, and a shortage seems
likely before the end of the week.
In fact, it is said that there is only
two days supply of meat on hand.
Meantime the tension is beginning
to make itself manifest by outbreaks
of a serious nature. for a number of
which negro strike-breal-ers seem to
have been primarily responsible
rather than the strikers themselves.
Mayor Harrison, of Chicago, claims
that the city authorities will be fully
able to cope with the situation. II
he succeeds in proving the claim, he
will do much to justify Chicago's self
government in the eyes of the coun-
try.
All the union wOrkmen employed
by the Chicago packers are out, with
the exception of the teamsters, and
many Of these have quit as individ-
uals without waiting for the official
order from union headquarters. The
packers expect that such an order
will be given soon and are making
arrangements 10 ship meat directly
from their yards by rail.
At present, therefore, all merits
and dement's involved in the original
question of a reduction in the wages
of unskilled labor are dropped, while
the lust of battle innames both sides
with the determination to win re
gardless of cost. Until this passion
expends itself, any change for the
! better in a situation already bad car
hardly be expected.

A Millionaire in OVerallS.

A young millionaire has been found
fault with by some Of the ultra
critical for putting on Overalls and
going into his fathers factory with
the intention of learning something
about every department Of the bust
ness. Il is asserted that he should
study some way of spending his
fathers money with profit, or engage
in some business which does not
make a main object of getting to-
gether more dollars.
This is very nice. But the trouble
is that there are no such businesses
outside of heaven. The calling OF
the artist comes the nearest to it, but
the young millionaire cannot say TO
himself, Go 20, l will be a painter"

Secretary Shaw.

Comment has been made on the
lack of enthusiasm with which Secre-
tary Shaw was received on the occa-
sion Of his first campaign speech a
little while ago II is unfortunately
true that the Secretary of the Treas
ury comes as near actual unpopular
ity as any member Of the present
Cabinet, and the feeling may be trac-
ed to his remarks about high prices.
OF course he meant that high wages
ought to go with high prices, which,
of course, would make the effect
about the same as low wages and
low prices: but all the same, it was
not a tactful thing TO say. The aver
age person would like TO believe
that we have in this country high
wages and low prices. and if this
cannot be said now, he wants to find
way by which IL can be truthfully
said some time; in other words, he
wants a national policy which will
secure TO the consumer the greatest
good for the least money.
The remarks of Secretary Shaw
about hoping never TO live in a time
when prices were low, came at a
period of our development when, ac-
cording 10 him, ave ought all to be
more happy and prosperous than at
any previous time in the history OF
the country. Certainly there was
never a time when the necessaries
of life were so high. in proportion
10 the value Of the articles. Meat has
been abnormally high for months
and yet the cattlemen have not reap
ed any benefit. Flour has been high
so high that the bakers in some cities
had TO put an extra cent on the price
of the loaf. Clothing of various
kinds has perhaps been cheaper, but
the quality of the cloth is not SO
good Meanwhile, clerks and book
keepers and professional men and
others with fixed salaries have had
to rub along on the same amount OF
money, and the farmers have found
that land was no cheaper, and their
profits were less than in former years.
This was bad for the Sacretary's idea
The Washington times., 1904-07-28

there are worse things for a young
man to do than to go into business
with the intention of understanding
his fathers business and carrying on
his fathers work There is no Ques-
ton that the majority of rich men
greatly desire that their sons should
do exactly this, and that many Of
them have been bitterly disappointed
/ that nothing of the kind took place.
A fathers wishes ought TO have some
weight even with a young million
aire.
The colossal fortunes now being
heaped up by rich Americans might
do worse than fall into the hands Of
such youths. The prosperity of
many cities and countrysides has
been furthered by the stability OF a
few great rich houses. which could
be depended upon in any time of
scarcity or need The scattering of
money by young rich men does not
raise the moral tone of the country
The alternative, their assuming the
management Of their fathers work,
and considering not only immediate
profit bat the permanent interests of
the business, its good name, and the
welfare of the working people, might
be of very great benefit.
The hardship entailed upon working
people by the sudden making of
! colossal fortunes is often great The
preservation of such fortunes would
not necessarily cause the same hard
ship. In short, if we are to have
( rich men, it is better that they should
i have some such feeling of response
bility for their fortunes as the better
class of English aristocrat has for the
honor of his name, and that they
/ should conserve these fortunes wisely
and carefully rather than waste them
in riOtous living or go on making
more through insane desire for con-
/ troll of millions

KWANG-SI REBELLION
SPREADING IN CHINA
Foreign-Trai Imperial General Joins
the Insurgents Cause-Gov-
eminent TO Act.

PEKIN. July 2S.-The Chinese are once
more alarmed at the extension of the
rebellion in Kwang-Si Province, which
for years has been the scene OF famine
and disaffection.
Orders were recently issued for the ar
rest of one Of the imperial commanders,
Brigadier Tsu-Shen-Wu. He promptly
joined the rebels. and as he is a gr3du-
ate OF the Ttentsin Military College and
was trained by foreign instructors. his
detection adds 10 the anxiety.
The Chinese government declares that
il is competent to check the rebellion.
The reports that France threatened
armed intervention unless the rebellion
was quickly suppressed were baseless.
The attitude of the French government
toward China In her recent difficulties IN
the provinces bordering on French IndO-
China has been both sympathetic and
friendly.
