Vnlted States and Canada met this evening
In tho ball of Iho Chicago Llvo Stock ex

stock In the main pavilion this afternoon
was successful. Ninety-seven cnttlo sold at
an- nverago of 9447.
Tho Bccond session of tho convention be
gan at 9:30 and tho attendance showed that
a largo majority of the delegates were en
joying tho entertainment offered by tho
stock shows nt other places.
Prof. Thomas Shaw of the University of
Minnesota discussed "The Dual Cow," or
cow bred for her milk and meat. Prof. Eu
gene Davenport of tho Illinois Experiment
station declared that stork was Judged from
too many viewpoints. "Stock Is Judged,"
said he, "from tho standpoint of tho
butcher, tho feeder, the breeder and the
fanclor. A more general system of Judging
should be used."
What to Expert of Congress.
"What the Live. Stock Interests of the
United States Can Reasonably Expect of
Congress" was the subject of the address
of Hon. William M. Springer of Washing
ton. He told of the troubles of the con
creseman. "Congress Is a very busy place," said the
speaker. "To get a bill through it must be
a good bill; you must bo united behind It,
and you must come to Washington and work
for It. I have known bills to rest In con
gress for years when nobody was opposed to
them. Washington Is full of pigeon holes,
and the rtgeon holes are full full of bill
which are sleeping tho sleep which knows,
no waking. If you stockmen want to work
measures through get to work; get n stenog
rapher, a typewriter nnd a press bureau,
and send your best men there. You have
been neglected by congress, but If you get
busy matters will improve. Last session
thoro wero 22,12$ bills Introduced In con
gress, so you seo that If you want your
particular bill considered you must get be
hind It nnd push hard." Dr. D. E. Salmon,
chief of the bureau of animal Industry,
spoke of "Federal Inspection for Interstate
Shipments of Live Stock."
O. A. I'roul)'" .Vimie IlrlnK Aplanr.
C. A. Prouty, n member of tlfo Interstate
Commerce commission, was npplnuded when
bis name wns announced. Ills subject was
"Needed Changes In the Intorstate Com
merce Law." Ho said tho commission had
been roferred to as the "Judicial It." Tho
present law upon which the commission Is
founded and by which It acta should bo
wiped off tho slate nnd n now one enacted.
"The time Is fast coming," the speaker
declared Impressively, "when thcro will bo
no competition between railroads. Tho cost
of bringing a steak from Texas to Vermont
Is now only nbout 1 cent a pound. This Is
due to competition among the railroads.
This competition among cattlemen wo
' should try to promote. What Is the pur
pose of these railroad combinations? To
make money. It is not tho reduction In
operating expenses whereby the roads ox
,pect to Increase tholr dividends. It Is by
' forcing moro freight money from the pub
lic." T, NtrrllitK Morton' Aildrea.
Hon. J. Sterling Morton's address today
before tho convention commanded cenerol
Interest. In hie Introductory remarks Mr.
Morton dwelt upon the power of levying and
the purposes of taxes, during the course of
t which ho said: "Tho very first and the
Inexorable requirement as to lawful taxa
tion Is that It shall a levied exclusively
for a public purpose"
Proceeding hf ettld In pari;
Is. the tax upon b.itterliie and olromar
garlne. proposed by the Grout bill, ex
oluslvely for n public purposo? Is It not a
cunning device for using tho power to tax
for tho purposo of destroying one industry
In order to encourago mut build up an
other Industry? In the first section of the
bill tbero is an attempt to dolegnto the
powor to regulnto commerce betwoen the
elates by mnklng "ull articles known us
nloomnrgarlne, buttcrlue, Imitation butter
or Imltntlnn cheese, or nny substance In
the semblance of butter or cheese
nnd not made exclusively of pure ami una
dulterated milk and crenm, transported
Into any state iv territory, nnd remaining
tbero for use, consumption, sale or storage
therein, shall upon the orrlvnl within the
limits of audi slate or territory; bo sub
ject to tho operation nnd effect nf tho laws
of such state or territory enncted and to
tho exercise of Its police powers to the
tamo extent and tn the same manner ns
though such articles or substances had
been .produced Ilk such stnte or territory,
and shall not bovoxempt therefrom by
reason of bolng Introduced therein, In or
iginal packages or otherwise.
Involves CunnhieT Scheme.
Would not this provision enable anv
state to Interrupt mid nbsolutely destroy
tho rc-shlpnient of theso eommodltlns out
of Its boundaries, provided thev bad been
held therein, oven temporarily, either for
consumption, snie or storngeT Aim is not
thla suction n plausible attempt on the part
of congress to delegate its power to regu
late Interstate commerce to the several
states nnd territories?
This legislation Is sought not by farm
ers, uut oy manuiaciuring una commercial
dairymen, it naa very properly ana quite
naturally originated In th state of Ver
mont, whence came the Morrill protective
tariff, and where the 'majority of the land
owners and. farmers bnve persistently Im
poverished themselves by clinging to the
fallacies of protection. And Just as we
have been asked to believe that the vast
lobbies maintained nt Washington for the
purpose of securing higher duties on Cer
tain foreign articles Imported to the
United Htntes nrc entirely philanthropic an
to their motlven. nnd that the sole object
of high protective tariff laws Is to make
certain American manufacturers pny
higher wnges to their employes, nnd at
the same time compel them to sell the
products of the labor of those employes at
lower prices, so we nre now requested to
tnx our credulity nnd believe that the un
selfish dairymen of the United Htntes, In
corporated nnd otherwise, are keeping nnd
paying n lobby nt Washington, solely for
the puhlle purpose of raising revenue for
the government by imposing this to-cent
tax on yellow-colored butter substitutes.
Tnxes for I'rlntc Objrct.
The speaker, maintaining that the levying
of taxffl is Invested In tho legislative bodies,
condemned that portion of tho Grout bill
which applies to taxes on tho ground that
It sought to levy taxes for the benefit of
private persons and not for public purposes.
Contrnuins he said:
If the Grout bill can become a law of the
land thero Is no reason why It should not
oe followed by hundreds of similar bills,
each one seeking lo build up soma par
ticular Industry mid to tenr down another.
Tho moment the American people permit
tho use of tho tnxlng power Indiscrimi
nately for other than public purposes that
moment' they have determined upon tho
downfall of Justice, cquntlty nnd decent
fsovernment on this continent. In nil his
itstorlc career, under nil forms of govern
ment, man has demonstrated that when
over tho law-mnklng power has come to be
manipulated for special Interests nnd for
their pecuniary advantage the deteriora
tion, decay nnd final overthrow of that
government hits logically nml speedily en
sued. It certainly is not the business of a
repubtlcnn form of government to prescribe
privileges nnd emoluments for one class of
citizens by cxtortlonntely taxing other
classes. Tho machinery of government
should operate like tho iitmospherc which
Miirroiiiids us. bearlnc entlnllr its weight
.upon ull, but oppressively upon none.
The national live stock convention adopted
resolutions voicing Ibelr satisfaction In the
fact that a man who understands the cattlo
Interests sits In the president's chair nt
Washington. After lamenting the death of
President McKlnlcy the resolutions wns
read:
Henri Greetlnic tn the Prealclrnt.
"Whereas, tho Inscrutable will of tho
Divine ruler of nations has seen fit to tako
from us the beloved and deeply lamented
president,' William McKlnlcy, and has ele
vated to this position Hon. Theodore Roose
volt, who has taken the reins of government
with a firm hand and has. In his message
to congress, displayed a keen Insight Into
the needs of the people and has voiced
In vigorous tone tho demands of the people
for progess, In the right direction; therefore,
be It
"Resolved. That we sent greeting to
President Roosevelt, assuring him of tho
loyalty and support of the stockmen of tho
country In all his undertakings for tho
good of the people. We recognize In our
chief cxocutlvo one who Is familiar with tho
Industry wo represent, who has wielded a
lariat and branding Iron and knows per
sonally of tho Joys, tho hardships and the
fatigues of llfo on tho ranch and range.
The cowboy on tho range and the stock
man on tho ranch, nil feel that tn President
Roosevolt tho nation has a loyal, honest and
fearless ruler ond the livestock Industry
has n friend nt court In the person of one
who knows the needs nnd necessities of that
Industry."
Gov. Smiine Addresses Convention.
Governor Savage of Nebraska spoke briefly
In prnlso of Chicago and gave stockmen
credit for much of the city's greatness.
Prof. Frederick V. Covllle, botanist of the
department of agrlculluro, spoke on "Pois
onous Plants on the Range."
Prof. Covllle spoke In part ns follows:
In tho early daya of the range stock In
dustry, when gras.H was abundant, profits
wero enormous, nnd nnnual losses of 10 or
15 per cent, through hard winters nnd other
cuuses, were considered trivial, little at
tention wns paid to the death of nnlmnls
from poisonous plants. Hut now, when
tho range Is closely grazed, competition Is
nctlvo nnd winter feeding has entailed n
new expense, tho prevention of losses from
contagious disenses, from wild animals and
from poisonous plants become Important
factors In successful stock ruining.
Thero Is n widespread assumption nmong
ranchmen that all the poisonous plants
may by some wltchcrnft of science be ex
terminated from tho range. On the basis
of past experience, however, there Is no
reasonable hope that such a method of
denting with n wild pin nt can be success
fully devised nnd cnrrled out.
To accomplish tho desired results It Is
necessary for the department and the
stockmen to act together, tho one to secure
the facts, tho other to npply them.
In closing let me mnke one practical sug-
fn'stlon, that every sheen owner require his
lordcrs, and every cattle owner roqulro at
least one of his range riders, to know the
poisonous plants of his range. This knowl
edge and nn Intelligent npptlcatloti of It
will do moro thnn nny other one thing to
obviate the losses to which you nrc ordi
narily subjected.
Resolution Adopted.
Resolutions were then presented to the
convention and adopted: That Arizona and
New Mexico be admitted to statehood. That
duties on hides be retained so long ob the
man who manufactures them Into different
articles Is protected by the tarlft. That
by treaty between this governmc.it and
Germany that the latter government romovo
tho ban on American meats and that If the
German government will appoint Us' on
Inspectors to send to this country the
National Llvo Stock association will B.)e to
tho paying of their salaries, provldtng that
meats bearing the stamp of the inspectors
ho recolved into Germany without piotest.
That an Inter-state law for the prosecution
of horso thieves and cattlo rustlors be
enacted.
That the president appoint a commission
to visit England and work against tho dis
crimination which Canadian cattlemen seek
for IhAtllflAk'AB. Oltl) 1.1 1 r 1 V, N . I

nated; that the efforts of the nureau of An
imal Industry In seeking knowledge of bo
vine tuberculosis and to prevent the disease
are approved. Tho only discussion over the
resolutions was, precipitated by the death
sentence asked tn be passed on buzzards.
The discussion was brief, however, nnd tho
assertion that the extermination of the
cnrlon bird wns a move In the direction of
scientific advancement resulted in the pas
sage of tho resolution. At 1 p. m. a recess
till tomorrow morning was taken.
