Water Macarthur Tells How the
Steamship Companies Hold Pas
sengers Lives Cheap TO Profit
by Cheap Manning of Vessels
With Chinese.

SAN FRANCISCO Feb. 4.-The
American seaman is rapidly dis
appearing from the transpacific
vessels and his place has been TAX
en- by Chinese coolies.
Ii has been recently estimated
that there are 10000 asiatics en-
plOyed on the vessels plying be-
tween OientaI and North and
South American ports. The big
steamship companies, offshoots
of the railroads, employ the coolie
To the exclusion of the white sea-
men, not because of any efficiency
in labor, but because they are
cheaper and more seryile than the
white help.
Walter Macarthur, one of the
most prominent labor leaders IN
the country and official of the
eSamen's union, not only declares
that this is helping to decrease the
number of American seamen, but
that it endangers the lives of ev-
cry man, woman and child who
travels on the vessels manned by
a coolie ere and differed by hite
men who cannot make themselves
understood to the crew except
through the Chinese boatswain.
He quotes as an example to
show the dangers of such labor,
the wreck of the City of Rio De
Janeiro in San Francisco harbor
February %, 1901. The vessel hit
the rocks in a dense fog, sank
within a few minutes. Over 100
lives were lost, but Macarthur
charges that many of these would
have been saved had the vesesl
been manned by white men, be-
cause the idea of slf preservation
is not uppermost in the mind of
whites in time of disaster, as 1t
is in the Oriental.
1.-The Chinese crew could not be
controlled, said Macarthur.
They made for the boats, leaving
the women and children to their
fate. That the supreme court of
the United States recognizes the
inefficiency of the Chinese seaman
is shown by its findings in the
suit for damages instituted by
some of the ships passengers. The
court found that the vessel was not
manned. The lack of eff
ficiency was not due to too few
men in the crew, but the fact that
the crew could not understand the
language of officers.
The company had to pay dam
ages, but it continues to operate
it's vessels with Chinese.
The crews are shipped in Hong-l
kong at an average wage of $Sl
gold per month
I'VE talk about ship subsidy;
about the lack of American sea-

WHY ARE GERMS

ulseaSe mlcfODe was born. we
don't know where his birthplace
was unless down in Asia, which
is claimed to be the birthplace of
the human races. Anyhow he is
here, and no one believes that it,
any more than a member of the
human race, comes into being by
spontaneous generation. Butwe
have an idea that he is crawling
about from Charles to Bill and
from Jennie to Anna all the time,
and that if he is kept off Charles
Bill will not be made breeding
place for a colony of disease mi
crobes, and that that is the same
case with Jennie and Anna. But
the puzzle is, where do Charles
and Jennie get them? And where
do the fellows that give them to
Charles and Jennie get them2 In
other words, where do disease
microbes come from anyway?
Are disease microbes the cause of
the disease, or are they the re-
suit? Do they fasten upon a
healthy organism and make it
sick, or do they find a fertile field
on a diseased organism and move
in and take the place, bringing
with them their brothers and sis
tiers and cousins, and uncles and
aunts and homestead it?
Some time ago the public was
entertained by the capture OF
kitchen mechanic down in New
York who, while she never had
typhoid fever in her life, was
found with the germs on her per-
son, and some Sherlock Holmes
in the medical profession found
that everywhere she had been in
her wake was typhoid fever. So
they quarantined her and, as her
name was mary, she was called
Typhoid Mary. Shewa thenine
days wonder of the medical world
and some very beautiful as wei
as very elastic theories were WOW
en- out of the case. But Mary,
firing of this life of inaction and
the cold glare Of publicity, bro't
habeas corpus proceedings and
was then released. She proved
by experts that the human race
were typhoid Marys and that the
typhoid germ was eking out a
pale, colorless existence upon
every member of the court, in
GLIDING the medical Sherlock
Holmes.
Ii that was the facts in the case
may it not then be true that we
are all perambulating home
steads for disease germs, and
that when the pathological con-
ditions become such that the soil
is fertile for the propagation of
certain diseases that that partic-
ular breed OF germs follow the
scriptural injunction by multi
plying, replenishing and subduing
the diseased body of the genus,
