It was shown indeed that |this lobbyist had) talked much and jeloguently, that he had. filed’. many newspaper clippings, bills, resolutions land the like. A. reasonable suspicion }Was created that he had once given la congressman ‘a fifteen-cent cigar. It {was shown that every time a bill] jpassed which might be considered fa- vorable ty, his employers he sent them a tglegcam. of congratulations in jwhich he said “We have,won a great | victors," or words to that effect. | What was hard to prove was that {he ‘had actually influenced the eours: {of legislation by, somuch as a fly jon the steering wheel influences the course of a car. | Of course, there may \be lobbyists jwho exercise a sinister influence, but jhow are you gving to find out whicl ones they are?

The packers have done away with the services of Judge Samuel Alschuler as arbitrator, but we will not accept a wage reduction unless it goes before some fair tri- bunal or umpire. Either: recall Judge Alschuler or appoint someone: in his place, is our advice to the packers.” Mr, Lane said that he believed that the packers would “‘relish/a strike. “We have found that/ they. have stored vast quantities of their-prod ucts and that they could’ shut down for some time without any real loss,” he said. “Had the employes taken such a stand as the packers now have taken we would haye forced the country into |chaos and been condemned by every j one."” A wage conference of employes has been ealled by Mr. Lane to meet in Omaha tomorrow. “In addition, meet- ings in all cities where there are:pack- ing house branches are being arranged Gnd a demonstration is planned: here for next’ Sunday when © 20,000 em- ployes are expected’ to takepart in’a | parade and maxs meeting. i Mr, Lane ‘said that the: aiinounce- {ment of the packers that overtime | would be paid only after a “10-hour| day or 54 hours a week meant @ re-} tlimn to the 10-hour day. “The men will never stand for Gat |attempt to force them bgck to the old | working hours.
