Warns Against Peril Of

Wages Lost.

| lCenterville, Aug. 29.-'fWe still have
! hope that we are going to be let alone
| and allowed to run our own business
said Theodore u. Shonts, president OF
|1nterborough Metropolitan railway
| companies in an address here yester-
day afternoon at the "home- coming
celebration. Hundreds of former resi-
dents OF Appanoose county and thou
sands OF farmers attended the celebra-
tion, at which Mr., Shonts was the
chief speaker, his subject being
Transportation"
destroy that hope that We are to
be allowed to manage our own busi-
ness" continued Mr.. Shonts, land we
will have in this country an era OF
misery that will send to eternal dam
nation those who are responsible for
it,"
Continuing, he called transportation
the handmaiden of prosperity, and said
1t was certainly proper to see that her
feet trod the right path. but that the
maiden should not be loaded with fet-
ters If she was to serve her mistress
with zeal and success.
The railroads are entitled to a fair
price for what they have to sell, which
is transportation, just as any other
corporation or merchant. In the face
of increased cost of operation and
maintenance and with widespread de-
mands for extensions and betterments
their rates have been gradually go
ling down. In the last ten years the
price Of farm products has increased
25 per cent and the price of food has
Increased nearly 9 per cent. but the
average freight rate has decreased
more than IS per cent.
Demands Higher Rates.
",rhe only answer to this problem is
THAT the railroads must get more for
What they have to sell, the same as
with any other business under proper
regulations. 1t does not help sltua-
ton for one party to sin because an
other party has sinned or is thought to
have sinned. What we want now is
honesty and fair dealing on both SIDES.
and I tell you frankly that there can
be no continued prosperity in any part
Of the country If the transportation
interests are unfairly dealt with. 70
litical pygmies, when in power, can

lions have been abandoned because OF
the vengeful spirit that has tempor-
arily possessed the minds Of men whose
duty 1T is carefully to consider pro-
posed legislation.
"The greatest menace today to a
continuance of our country's growth
and the influence that is doing more
than anything else to retard the re-
turn of prosperity, is the fear on the
part of the people who own the rail-
roads that the operation of their prop
critics will be taken out of the hands
of the trained men who are now direct
ing them and turned over to the boards
or commissions, whether national, state
or municipal, who will exercise full au-
thority without the slightest financial
responsibility.
Ahead of Socialists.
"The honest socialist believes in gov
eminent ownership and operation OF
the railroads and has the courage OF
his convictions. He wants to buy all
of the roads at a fair price and have
them operated by officers elected by the
people, who will be accountable to the
people, as stockholders.
But what shall we say Of people
who. while frowning on socialism, or
protesting to stand In horror OF 1t, de-
mand that the railroads shall be placed
under control of commissions who Will
take away from the officers OF these
properties, elected by the stockholders,
the right to operate them? IL this
proceeding, under the guise of law, is
not taking away property without COM
pensation. in violation OF our constltu-
tional rights, what is 1T?
Honestly conceived laws to compel
a service that will meet with the rea-
sonable approval of the patrons of
road and prevent determinations,
stock watering and stock jobbery are
right and proper, but to go far beyond
that and impose unreasonable burdens
and unfair restrictions looks to the
defeat of the very purpose which 1t is
sought to attain.
Millions in Wages Lost.
1--WE have before us an illustration OF
what even temporary cessation OF the
TRANSFORMATION development OF the
country means. A year ago there were
1,675,OO0 railroad employees in active
service and they received nearly $l,-
100, 900 900 in wages during the year,
according to statistics collected by the
government Fully one-quarter of these
men are now idle at a loss in wages APP
proximating s1,0O0,000 for every work.
ing day. A year ago the railroads were
spending $3.50. 100000 for supplies
now they are spending not more than
$500, 900 900 This means falling OIL
in railroad expenditures of $3OOO,OOO
day, and it is impossible to accurately
state the number of men in forests,
mines and factories who have been
thrown out of employment by the
shrinkage of the demand for equipment
and supplies, but they are numbered
nv the tens of thousands"

GENERAL ADVANCE IN HOGS
Market Was UnevenIy Higher, But All

Close the Week Higher But Sheep
Arc Lower.

Chicago, Aug. 29.-The cattle market
was nominal one, and there were no
offerings in the open market. CLOSING
| prices for the week are higher on ma
tive steers and the better grade of
range steers, and lower on native COW
stuff and range cattle of poor quality
Bullish tone has pervaded the trade
for good to choice steers all week and
better price range Is noted for these
despite increased receipts of both ma
tives and westerns as compared with
last week. Advances of 100000 are
in force for good choice steers,
while primest kinds have also gone Toe
higher but for the plain and light
grassers demand has been slow most
days and these failed to make gains
in value. However, the medium killers
have sold largely loo higher, in face
of rather keen competition from west
ern rangers.
Broadening demand, both on local
and shipping account, has been an in
centive to the higher prices. Shippers
We're keen for finished steers each day
and the packers have also bought free
ly of anything good enough to land
above $500.
Hogs.
With meagre receipts, prices adj
vanced. They We're unevenly higher,
the gains being estimated at SOLO, and
all classes of animals shared in the
advance.

stuff among the arrivals. With more
shipping orders apparent than a few
days ago the movement from seller to
buyer was heavier and the cent
"critter" was in evidence again on
that account. With range from I'M
der to over the market has shown
a rarely wide spread.
Sheep.
A few loads OF western range lambs
were practicaily all that were offered
on the market. Range lambs were
strong, and sheep were steady Lambs
closed the week higher, while sheep are
10@15 lower.
After the pounding native lambs re-
ceived last week they were held back
and, compared with the rush recently,
native arrivals have been light. The
market closed up we'll and a belief
exists that prices have seen low point
for the season. Existing conditions
do not call for glut of natives next
week, however and the country will
display good judgment by marketing
them moderately. The practice of fill
up the sheep house with natives one
week, and giving buyers an opportun-
ity to steal them, then holding them
out and sending prices back, is per-
nicious one and ought to be discon-
tinued.
