"We will be only too glad as friends of the union men If they can go back to work under the most favorable conditions possible," said Mr. McCulloch. In reply Mr. Vail ald the action of the New York butchers should not be taken aa any criterion. "There has," he said, "been a bitter feeling between the butchers In the east and m the west for a long time. The de cision of the New York butchers to re turn to work had little bearing on the strike. There la nothing I can do to settle the strike, and In my opinion It has gone, beyond the power of the packers here to make any kind of a settlement.. When the packers offered us a proposition It was merely for us to vote to call the strike off. They agreed that there would be no objeotloa to - men wearing union buttons. There was no proposition concerting un skilled labor and . you all know men who earned 60 cents an hour quit work to as sist unskilled, men In securing better wages. Now the packers here want to pay 17 cents an hour for laborers where before the strike they paid 19 cents. In my opin ion there Is no use of your committee vis iting the packer here, but still no harm can coma of such a visit" Mr. Cheek said the business men had shown Mr. Vail the object of the meeting and those present .were willing to assist him in every way possible to bring about an end to the strike. Committee Named to Act. It was decided to continue the commit tee and a visit will be paid , to the packers today. Another meeting Is to be held sub ject to tha call of the committee. Before adjournment the following reso lution was presented and waa signed by over fifty of those present: Whereas, The long continuance of the South Omaha packing house strike Is a menace to all business and labor Interests of the community: therefore, be It Resolved. That It is the sense of the business men of South Omaha now In meet ing assembled that all consistent and hon orable efforts possible should be taken to bring about a settlement of said strike and to secure the reemployment of the largest possible number of old men at the wages received by them at the time of the Inauguration of the strike, to which ef forts we each of us pledge our undivided and unqualified support. Yesterday about 100 former packing house employes applied at the plants and secured work. This number was about equally divided between the four houses. Some of the union men who returned to work at Cudahy's Wednesday morning did not show up this morning. The reason for this was the re-establlshment of a picket line about the Cudahy plant. There waa a report Wednesday night that the union men proposed to picket the Cudahy plant again and as far as possible prevent their comrades from going back to work. The picket line did the work, for General Manager Murphy said about a dosen union men who left the plant for their homes Wednesday night did not return. Sheriff Power and Chief Brlggs Were noti fied Wednesday night of the proposed res toration of the picket line and deputy sheriff and police were on' duty In the vicinity of the plants to maintain order.

Sept. 8.-Tbe fairest of Septem ber skies, and Rosemount st Its best were the outward preparations, for the visit to Judge Pirrker today of the democratio edi tors from various parts of the country. Several of Judge Parker's Intimate friends came down on the morning train from Kingston to participate In the reception of the editors.

They were received by the candidate and the visit waa made the occasion of the first political speech he has made In many years, barring only that In which, on August 10, he accepted the nomination. i Knapp and Parker Speak. The greeting of the editors to the candi date was delivered by Charles W. Knapp, editor of the St. Louis Republic. In t-eply Judge Parker said In part: This challenge to a comparison of demo cratic and republican administrations since the republican party came Into existence should be welcomed. Fortunately, we have eight recent years of democratio adminis tration of the executive department of the government which we will gladly compare with any similar period since 18W. Extravagance Is running riot In federal, state and municipal governments, In spite of the -well directed -effort of some excel lent officials. The indebtedness of the mun icipal governments are steadily-piling up, bond Issues are Increasing and the people have not the satisfaction In manv Instances of a full equlvllent In Improvements for the money expended. And the .federal govern ment Is leading In the race of great ex penditures. Ere long the people will de mand a reform In administrative expenses. And they will do it now If they are made to appreciate the whole truth. The democratic party is not a machine: It is a body of citizens who believe that on the whole Its fundamental principles are best adapted to the conduct of the govern ment. Among so many patriotic and Intelligent men. It Is Inevitable that divergence of public opinion as to minor questions and differences of views -as to the correctness of the disposition of dead Issues should be found. The party Is concededly united today as to every vltnl article of faith which can reasonable enter Into the pend ing canvass. - Our adversaries are entrenched. In full possession of every department of the gov ernment and It Is a mistaken policy that woud drlveaway voters .who would help .to oust them. .The cause cannot be ad vanced by attacks on other within the party with whom we have had disagree ments, but who are now working- with us rpr a common result. , Tho renult In Vermont on Tuesday ad monishes us, and there can be no harm in, giving voice to the admonition that har monious co-operation of all and the eltml natlnn nt rtfrinnn 1 factional and unimport ant differences Involving no surrender, of nrinnlnle. are essential to success.
