Manufacture is equally dependent upon agriculture for eotton, flax, wool and other produets of the fleld and herd. Our com- mercial, industrial and financlal supremacy is, therefore, not'dependent. upon any one fact, or Interest, or condition, but upon all combined. We produce practically 30,000,000 tons of iron ore—as much as any other two coun- tries and one-third of the world's output. ‘We produce 40 e cent of the world's output of iron and steel. During the first half of 1903 we produced nearly 10,000,000 tone of pig iron. t e produce 'more coal than Great Britain; more than twiee as much as Ger- many and nearly double that of all eoun- ries except Great Britain and Germany. We grow three-fourths of the worid's cotton fibre and our ability to produce this staple is far above the present product. A people’s prosperity Is not meakured by its_capacity to prodyoce more than by its capacity to consume, and this capacify to consume is In turn dependent upon the earning capacity of the individual. and the earning capacity of the, individual is again dependent upon native and oquired ability, So, if America be great, it is be- cause God {n His wisdom stored the moun- tains with the richest minerals, overlaid the valleys with a most fertile soil and then ‘gave it to the péople competent, in some slight degree at least, to Improve their opportunities. “ Congress at Lead Today.

SCRANTON, Pa., Sept. 8—Carroll D. Wright, the umpire to whom was referred the five disputes between.the operators and miners'. representaives on the board of conclliation appointed umder the provision of the Anthracite strike commission, filed his findings tenight with T. D. Nicholls, secretary ot the board. In dealing with the question of the employers' rights to discharge men for any cause than that of connection with a labor unlon Umpire Wright agrees with the contentlon of the operators’ representatives and declares that the right of an employer to discharge with- put giving the cause of the discharge is sustained by the award of the eommission. He says that the Lehigh Coal and Naviga- tlon company and Coxe Brothers and com- pany should take back old men instead of putting on new men in all cases where the old men are competent and have not been convieted or rot awalting trial for crimes committed dubing the strike. The umplire's report takes up twenty-five pages of type- written matter. N Both Sides Free to Change. Leading up to the final award the umpire says: Taking the rulings of the court, the asser- tlon of the anthracite strike commission, the clauses in the ugreement made with the United Mine Workers of America, and the imissions of the different members of the board of conciliation. whether on the one side or the cther, there can be no doubt that a man has the right to quit the service of his employer whenever he sees fit, with or without glving any cause, provided he filvu proper notice, and that the employer s a perfect right to employ and dischasge men in accordance with the conditions of his industry; that he is not obliged to sive any cayse for discharge, but that he would, a8'tn the reverse case, give proper notice. This right to discharge must, therefore, be sustained. Any other view of the case would rssult in compelling men to work for an empioyer when they did not wish to and thus erslave them, when on the other hand it would compel employers to employ men whether the men were incompetent or not and would stagnate business and work to the Injury of all other employer. Some Not Parties to Award. It is therefore decided that contractors driving rock tunnels, sinking ehafts and other similar work, 'net being parties to the submission nor ‘having agreed to abjde by the awards of the anthracite coal strike commission are not parties under the award and have no standing before the board of concillation, and that their emploves are not among 'those employes affected by the award of -the anthracite coal strike com- mission. . The board has now disposed of about thirty disputes. Two more questions on which 1t deadlocked will be submitted to Umpire Wright. They deal with the nine- hour day In the Reading mines and the proper basis on which to compute the in- crease In wages awarded by the commis- sion, the companies in the Lehigh and Schuylkill region contending that it should be on the net earnings, while the men con- tend it should be on the gross earnings. Threaten Strike at St. Louis. ST. LOUIS, Sept. 8.—For an hour today & general strike ationg union artisans at the World's fair grounds was threatened as a result of differences between car- pénters and the Meyers Construction com- pifly, ‘'which 1s buliding the intramural raflway. Two thousand carpenters quit \work ‘béckuse ‘of the Bhptofment by the contragiors of several. men at lower. than the' unton scale. A truce was reached when the contractors suspended the men who were objected to. George Newman. representing the car- penters, says a general strike will be called if the contractors do not finally grant the demands. He declares that the allied unfons are in sympathy.

NASHVILLE, Tenn., Sept. 8.—At today's session of the Natlonal Assoclation of Postofice Clerks the report of Becretary Loeffler was submitted. The report called attention to the fact that congress had appropriated funds for the increase in salaries of several thousand clerks and that the fund had not been distrfbuted on account of the investigation of the frauds in the department. Mr. Loeffler said the mattet of promotions had not been given proper consideration and advocated a man- datory Classification. Mitehell to Visit Kan city. KANBAS CITY, Sept. 8.—James Mooney, representative of this district on the na- /| tional board of the United Mine Workers of America, arrived in this city tonight from Novinger, Mo., where he has been trying to relieve the situation incident to COFFEE HEART Barred by Life Insurance Companies. Coffeo drinking affects the heart and many. life insurance companies LOW Trecog- nize “Coftee Heart" as a well defined dis ease and refuse insurance to those suffer- ing from this trouble. Leaving oft coffee and drinking Postum Food Coffee regularly in its place quickly remedies this and puts the heart normal, healthy and steady again. I was examined for membership In the “Woodmen of the World' about & year ago and the examining physiclan told me that I had ‘Coffee Heart' due to coffee drink- ing, and told me that I would have to stop or he could hot answer for results. He sald I would mio doubt find it difficult to quit the use, of coffee, unless I drank well botled Postum Food Coffee in its place, and recommended Postum to me, which he sald would hot only aid me to give up the coffee habit, but would greatly help my health. | My pulse.registered over a hundred beats a minute and I was not admitted to mem- Dbership in the order, but my application was heid open for three weeks. “T began the use of Postum according to the dootor's directions and was highly pleased with it and liked it better than the best of coffee. After three or four days the beating of my pufse began to diminish, and at the end of three weeks it was normal and my application and examination papers were again sent to the Soverelgn Physician of the Woodmen at Omaha, with the result that I received my policy. “Hundreds of people have I heard re- mark, ‘Ob, thers's no harm in coffee.’ Now, 1 never dreamed the use of it was affecting me, in the least, and consider myself lucky that I underwent this examination just when I'dld and found out the truth about coffeo from this physician.

From the report of the treasurer of the Proprietary assocla- tion It developed that the recetpts had been increased by several thousand dollars, with this end In view. The National Wholesale Druggists' as- soclation was cailed to order by President W. A. Hover of Denver, who delivered his annual address, which was followed by the reports of Secretary Joseph E.

Including Mr. Thomas, exactly thirteen men were present at the time, but about ten more came in later, and a total voting strength of elght- een was developed during the meeting. J. J. Points was elected temporary chair- man and T. G. Kellogg temporary secre- ( tary. It being a “‘mass meeting'’ it was de- | clared that every one present would be con- sidered a delegate and the temporary offi- cors were thereupon made the permanent officers. John O. Yeiser moved that a committeo of three be appointed to draft a set of res- olutions to be submitted to the committee, the committee to be named later, for ap- | proval. But Judge Martin Langdon thought that nominations came first and the matter of resolutions was later overlooked or en- tirely forgotten, the meeting adjourning without adopting any or appointing a com- mittee. Cause of the Dispute. Mr. Yelser sald that as there could be no dispute regarding nominating Judges Dick- | Inson and Read, and A. N. Ferguson and E. C. Page, that he moved their nomination | be made unanimous, the other three nomi- | nations to be made later. But there w a dispute, and one that lasted during the entire meeting, between Judge Langdon and P. L. Forgan on the one side and the populist machine~E. E. Thomas, George A. Magney, John O. Yeiser, Laurie J. Quinby, assisted at times by S. Arlon Lewis, F.

Mag- ney, also nominated by him, deciined to be o candidate. John 0. Yelser made an impassioned plea for Judge Read and an equally impassioned | enunclation of Judge Istelle, to which Judge Langdon repiied that he knew Judge | Estelle had turned down Mr. Yeiser in his| organized labor litigation, but nevertheless Judge Estelle was correct in his opinion and was far the superlor of Judge Read in | | abllity, E. F. Morearty came in late and | wanted to know whether he was at a popu- list_convention or at a mass mecting. Be- ing assured he was at a mass meeting of citizens he attempted to make a speech and | particularly to defend Judge Estelle from | the attack on him by John O. Yeiser. But the warring popullstic factions Joined forces and as Mr. Morearty would not pledge himself to support the nominees of the meeting he was ruled out of order and requested to sit down. 8 ¥ Redd Finally Chosen. On a division Judge Read was nominated by fifteen votes to two votes—Judge Lang- don and P, L. Forgau—for Arthur C. Wakeley, Mr. Magney raid he understood G. W. Doane would rceept a nomination by the meeting and Jucge Doane was im- medlately nominated unanimously. Mr. Thomas insisted that the populists should have at least one candidate on the ticket and urged Mr. Maguey to recon- | sider his determination not to be a can-' didate. But Mr. Magney agaln declined with thenks and Mr. Thomas, in a speech telling how strong he would be with or- | sanized labor, moved that John O. Yeiser be nominated. On two conditions, Mr. Yelser sald, ne would be glad to accept the nominaiion If the meeting refused to nominate Lee 8, Estelle, whom Judge Langdon was atill advocating at times, and left the selection | of the seventh candidate to the judiclary | committee to be eppointed, he would ae- cept the nomination. By all except Judge | Langdon and P. L. Forgan, the conditions | were accepted, and John O. Yelser's name was added to the list. 8. Arion Lewls wanted the only factlon | stlll unrepresented given a place on the ticket. There were only three or four il- ver republicans left, he said, and Harry E. Burnam now registers as a democrat, but he wanted him put on the ticket to represent the silver republicans. But the blg four sald “No" and B. Arion Lewls | sat down. The big four sald “No” again, and much more emphatically, when Judge Langdon and Mr. Forgan placed A. C. Troup in nomination, urging that if a noi partisan ticket was to be nominated at least one candidate should be taken trom the republican ticket, and that Mr. Troup was worthy in every way of the support of, populists.

Hughos is the plaintiff in a $30,000 damage sult filed against the Western Real Estate trustees, an unincorporated assocla- tion, and William Minot, Alfred D. Foster, Laurence Minot, Charles F. Adams, second, and Moses Willlams, jr., trustees. The petition recites that the defendants are the owners of the property known as No. 1406 Douglas street, that a party wall had been erected between it and the prop- the plaintiff as a grocery store: that the de- which alterations were unlawful and un- authorised, caused the party wail to fall down, crushing the stock and interfering with the business of the plaintiff and dam- aging him in the sum named. An attachment was prayed fov and issued and was served from the sheriff's office yesterday on the property known as 1406 Douglas street and also on the property 1505 Farnam street, immediately west of the Barker block and ocoupled by a three-story ment 18 for the land and tenements situated on it.
