R. C. Howe, general manager of tha Ar
onr Packing company In Omaha, has re
turned from a trip to South America, any
most of the eon them repuhllce, especially
Argentine, are In a prosperous enndltlon.
Among the republics ha visited were Ar
gentine. Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay.
Of three. Argentine, Mr. Howe nays, la the
roost progressiva end. the one Aaatlned to
become a strong competitor af tha United
Ft a tea.
"Within five years I predlet," said Mr.
Howe, "that the United (Mate will be un
able to export one hnahel of groin to
Kurope. The reason for this will be Argen
tin.
"That country Is developing ao rapidly
that within the period I have named It will
be raiding enough corn and wheat to sup
ply the demand of the entire world.
"Argentine la a country about two-third
the slr.e of the United States, and almost
all of It can be cultivated.
, "Hurlng, the last few years the farming
-area ha been doubled. Tha farming If
diversified. The most Important crops are
corn. heat and Unseed. A considerable
fltinntlty of oats la raised, too.
"American farm machinery la used al
most exclusively. In every field one can
see a McCormlek harvester and a Deere
plow.
Great la Live Stoek.
"Hut Argentina la a great live stock
country and la becoming ona of our great
eat rival In that trade.
"There are now 29.000.000 cattle, W.OnO.On
sheep, (this Is more than are In the United
States), but pot many hog In Argentine.
The reason there are only a few hogs there
la because the people do not know how to
fatten them. What are there ara like tha
raxor-backa raised In this country.
"The people of Argentine, however, know
more about breeding cattle than wa In the
United Ftates at least they breed them
better than we do.
"The Rstanrhleron handle the live stock
In that country. These men own great
fields, or ranches, that are fifteen leagues
square. These fields are fenoed and cross
fenced. Ea' h cf these pastures Is In
chnnje of a capltan, or captain, who lives
In one corner of the field In a nice house.
"These men know all about cattle. They
breed from the beat stock obtainable. They
get the best breeding stock that can be
found In England and on tha continent.
They pay aa high as 125.000 for a bull and
as much as tS.OOfl for a ram.
"They do the fame In breeding their
horses. Fine draft and utility horses are
raised there. Horses can be bought for
cheap prices.
Raropeans Lead In Commerce.
"The German and English hold tha com
mercial and business Interests. The Ger
mans control the public service corpora
tions and the English control tha railroads.
"The Americana are not liked In Argen
tine. The reason I the class of Americans
that has gone there la not the best. The
Americans are regarded as money getters,
and the Argentine people are afraid these
Yankees will get cofitrol of their country.
I- notice, however, the sentiment toward
the Americans Is changing; they ara being
better, liked than heretofore.
"I went to see how strong a cattle ex
porting country Argentine Is and I found
the conditions such that th United State
cannot compete with it in that Una of
trade.
"There 1 only ons drswback to Argen
tine, and that Is the locust. These pests
are a great plague there, but the people
now seem to be waging a successful war
of extermination against them.
"But the progressive South American cltl
sen takes an optimistic view of the peat
and says there that Argentina raises mora
than enough to feed all the locusts and the
people."

ing; Federal

Florlne- and her daughter, Grace, arrested
on the charge of secreting a man under
Indictment for impersonating a federal of
ficer, have been bound over by United
States Commissioner Anderson in ball of
ISOO for appearance before the next federal
grand Jury. The charge Is resisting federal
officers.
The witnesses were A. I.. Shipley and A.
Marr, police officers of Florence; Kecret
Service Officer H. 13. Mills and Deputy
Marshal 3. D. Nlckerson. who appeared for
the prosecution, The only witnesses for
the defense were tho Accused women. The

ened the officers with pistols, claiming

house.
Columbus, O., secured tne next conven
tion of the International Pressmen and
Assistants' Union of North America by a
vote of 106 as against 49 votea for San
Jose, Cel.. and for Boston.
The next convention will begin on the
third Monday In June, 1910, this year's
convention adjourning at 1.24 Saturday
afternoon until that time.
The delegates chose Columbus for the
reason that four-fifths of the unions are
located within a radius of 1.000 miles of
that city and that conventions are held for
the purpose of transacting business and
not to give the delegates a chance to look
at sonery and eat fruit. Ran Jose mad
a hard fight for next year's meeting and
gave away many pounds of fruit during
the Omaha meeting.
Before the close the women of the con
vention, through Mr. Oeorge I.. Berry,
wife of the International president, him
self a Callfornlan, presented to each mem
ber of the local women's auxiliary a large
piece of cut glass as an appreciation of
the efforts of the local women to show
a good time to the visiting women and
delegate.

local committee, wa presented with a
large cut glass punch bowl, smaller piece
being given to Mrs. J. M. Birch, Mr. E.

Byers. Mra. J. Donahey, Mlsa Helen Sew
ard. Miss May Caralon and Mlsa Addle
Caralon.
Berry Is for Baslnesa.
In an adaress to the delegates Immedi
ately prior to putting the motion to ad
journ, President Berry congratulated them
on the excellent work they accomplished
during the week In Omaha and admonished
them to put Into execution when they
reach home the recommendations of the
convention. He told the delegates not to
go home and tell tha boys merely about
what a good time they had in Omaha and
how they liked the country and tha Knights
of Ak-Sar-Ben, but to tell them of what
wa done In the convention and to take off
their coata and work all the harder in tha
future for the good of the order.
Annual conventlona will continue to be
held by the International Pressmen and
Assistants' Union of North America.
A resolution was presented to the con
vention at Saturday's session calling for
bl-ennlal conventions In the future and
one of the most prolonged discussions of
tha convention resulted. Delegatea from
every section of the country talked on it.
The vote on the question was close, but
the annual convention plan won out.
Another Important matter settled at tha
last session of the convention was tha de
cision to elect officers in the future by
referendum vote. In the past the interna
tional officers have been elected by th
delegates sent to the international conven
tions. Under tha new law each member
of a subordinate union will have a voice
In the election.

Porter rase, wa able to appear this mom
ng and the case wa resumed at t:W In
district court. Judge Baker closed for the
defendant, with County Attorney English
following him.
Had Root not recovered sufficiently to
finish the case, the attorneys for the de
frndant had a novel proposition to make.

diet would not in a criminal case be bind
ing, ao that It waa to be agreed that If
the eleven-man Jury found her not guilty,
the county attorney should enter a nolle:
If guilty, the woman would be made to
plead guilty In a formal retrial.

Deputy Sheriff Osborn stretch his not In
considerable length upon a table In the

tionary which was to represent tha pillow

sey had forced the girl Into a Ufa of shame.
When County Attorney English took the
floor he fell upon two negroes who had been
friends of Dempsey and Indebted to him
In various ways and who nad denounced

WHY GO BY WAY OF NEW YORK
tahaa Minister Looka Over the
Big; Trade Centers of Omaha,
with Which He Become
Deeply Impressed.
General Carlos Garcia Veles. minister of
the republic of Cuba to tha United States,
spent Saturday visiting Omaha wholesale
houses and the packing plants at South
Omaha.
With General Enoch H. Crowder of Kan
sas City, General uarcla went caretu iv
over the entire plant of the Cudahy Pack
ing company, then through "Implement
row" In Omaha, paying particular atten
tion to th new building and the heavy
stock of Implements of the John Deere
Plow company.
The Cuban minister was much Interested
In the wholesale warehouse and factories
of Omaha, commenting continually on the
simplicity of everything and the ease with
which the business men apparently handle
tremendous volumes of business.
General Garcia said his visit was as
much for his own advancement as any
thing else.
"Too many of the ambassadors from for
eign countries never know anything about
the Interior of the United States," he saM
"They know Philadelphia, New Tork an 1
Washington, but I propose to know mora."
"The people of the west should find a
way to trad with Cuba more direct, in
stead of going to New Tork to bring gtods
from Cuba or ship grain and produoe
to the West Indies. The direct rout from
Omaha to Cuba is certain to become a well
beaten path."
The terminal elevator and grain ex
change of Omaha were other places visited
by the distinguished Cuban. Frank S.
Cowglll, president of the Transmlsslsslppl
Grain company, waa responsible for show
ing this part of Industrial Omaha to the
ambassador.
Meets Comrade Kanaton.
Coming through Leavenworth to Omaha.
General Garcia met General Funston, and
tho two (pent some time talking over old
time. A the son of the late General
Garcia, the man who I now minister from
his republlo to the United States, served
as a private In the old patriot army whlcn
fought tha first battles with Spain. In
thla early war General Funston was serv
ing as a private side by side with Carlos
Garcia. It was under circumstances some
what different that th two men dis
tinguished In military affairs met at Fort
Leavenworth, one being a major general
In tha United States army and the other
repreaentlng the republlo of Cuba, for
which both fought. In tha United States.
Now occupies the? undivided attention of Omaha muMc lovers. The rea

The Meek Man Retorts.
"Fountain pens." snapped the nagging
wife, "remind me of some husbands."
"What Is the resemblance?" ventured the
meek, little man.
"Expensive, can't be depended upon,
won't work, and half the time they are
broke. '
"That's pretty rough. Maria, but you
couldn't compare a fountain pen with some
women."
"I guess not."
"No; a fountain pen will dry up, an!
-some wives won't."
And then he made for the suburban

NO FIRE WARDEN IN OMAHA
Legislature's Blander Ties Hands of
the Mayor In the Appoint
ment of One.
Failure of the legislature to make an
appropriation and deficiencies In the de
partmental funds will prohibit Mayor Dahl
man from appointing a fire warden for
Omaha, as ordered by a new state law.
The new law is the result of a bill intro
duced last winter by Representative Walter
P. Thomas, and under It the mayor Is em
powered to appoint a fire warden July 1, to
serve for three years.
Th general fund contains but a little
more than 13 and the fire fund la In such
shape that the wages of members of the
fire department had to be reduced to those
which have prevailed In the past, so the
mayor aaya it is out of the question to
appoint a fire warden thla year. The new
law specifies that the dutlea of tha fire
warden shall not conflict with those of ths
i chief of the fire department
The list of nominations will be published
In the organization's trade paper In Janu
ary of each year and then the subordinate
unions will hold their electrons on the first
Wednesday in February. The return of
these election must be mailed within forty-eight
houra to the International secre
tary, a board of Judge to count th re
turns in his office on March 1.
A resolution In the interest of more day
light and presented by Delegate Albert B.
Kreltler of New Tork City was carried
unanlmmsly. This resolution asks that all
subordinate unions endeavor to get the
consent of employers to set the office clock
ahead one hour during the months of
May, (June, July, August and September
arid have the working day begin at T
o'clock In the morning and close at 4
o'clock In the -afternoon Instead of having
It begin and close on hour later. Under
this plan work would be attended to dur
ing the cooler part of the day and the men
would be given longer evenlnga.
MUSIC FOR CHOIR PICNIC
Advertising It la the Custom of th
All Saints' singers Each
Year.
At least one picnic naa an tne music
advertised when it la held each year. Tha
outing of All Saints' church choir holds
this distinction.
The choir held Its picnic at Manawa yes
terday afternoon and evening, leaving the
Paxton hotel on a special car at 4 o'clock
In the afternoon, with "Father" J. H
Slmms In charge, and J. M. Guild, the plo
neer choir picnic manager, as master of
ceremonies and keeper of the vlvers. Being
a Scotchman, Mr. Guild wanted a royal
haggis, the king of the pudding race, for
the picnic dinner, but the weather was too
hot to-oll a haggis properly. -
The dinner was served at the Kersaal
during the evening. Previous to this the
members of the choir did stunts about tho
beach. W. S. Rlgdon tried his voice under
water and members of the party declare
It could be heard plainly on shore. Charles
8. Haverstock filled his mouth with chuckle
stanes and deepened his base. Miss Barr
and Mr. Helgren are said to hara spilt
sail half-way across the lake when they
entertained the party with a duet.
There were twenty-flv In the party and
the annual picnic was on of the most
successful which the choir has had, tha
weather being favorable.

'Smiling Joe" they called him when
he waa taken frim th east sld to .h
hosr.ltsl at Sea Breese, Kong Island, four
years ago, and "Bmlilng Joe" he has been
ver since. When the Utile fellow went
to the hospital with a bal ctso of
tubercular spinal trouble he was only S
years old. Thy put him In a plsster
esst and fastened him to a board so th.tt
tor months he could only move his arms
and head.
And yet Joe kept on smiling. He nad
romminced by smiling, and h lntundedl
finl thing that 'ray.
Ona day a phjtigrapher cams to th
hospital and took Joe'a picture, which
was published In several magastnes and
papers throughout the country a pic
ture of Joe fastened securely in hi st,
but always smlllna and tha appealing
face In its pitiful setting began to draw
a'tention to the work of the socUly
which had founded the hospital and to
Interest people In tha work to th ext-uit
of giving mom1).
Joe has, in fart, not only been largely
responsible for tha support ot the thlr.y
nlns other children who aro alway be
ing taken care of, but he Is also responsi
ble for the nw 250,OOO hospltil -vhlrn
Is to be erocttd In the near fut'ire.
Consequently It was no mora than tit
ting that there should be festivities in
honor of Joe'i departure. For Joa Is
cured, and can walk and ruit about like
tthr children, and now, In hi 7th year,
he Is to return to his family md begin
Ufa In the real world.
"Joe baa been the success cf our work."
explained Manager Townsend to a re
porter. "Hospital to cure tubercular
bone troubles arc common In Europe, tut
there has never been one her3 until this
experimental horfltl was fcundud four
year ago. It Is a well-known fact th.it
children who suffer from t iberculnr
troubles benefit by sea air, .u4 thla I

"When Joe first Jitnc there his smil

has come to us from all over the country
on account of It. It was Joe who Induced
Mr. Rockefeller to give us $110,000 snJ
ha raised $1(0,000 mors besides, so that
now wa have a fund of $260,000 to be

MR. MAGOON'S CART ROADS
Oa of the T wa Great Acfclavaoaeata
pa to YaaUee Iaterveatloa
la tabs.
In the four year between ISM and 1903
an American military government of Cuba
freed thla Island from the scourgs of fever
which had played havoc with Ita foreign
born population through about four hun
dred yeara. Tha herculean labor of clean
ing Cuba, accompanied through his sani
tary department, la the pro-eminent serv
ice the country remembers In connection
with the name of General Leonard Wood
military governor.
In the two and a half years which
lapsed between the "August picnic" of
190, which msde It necessary that the
United Btatea again assume control of
Cuba's affairs, and the termination of In
tervention In the Inauguration of President
Oomos, tha American provisional adminis
tration of th republlo rendered the Island
a commensurate service. I met a demand
for Improved means of transportation in
the province, as voiced In vain by the
producing classes of Cuba through full
two centuries.
Tha system of macadamised highway
planned and pushed far toward comple
tion by his department of public works 1
ths pre-eminent service to b recalled on
mention of the aamc of Judge Charles E
Magoon, provisional governor of Cuba.
Cubana call these highway "th cart
roada of Mr. Magoon," because formerly
what mad roads there wer In Cuba
were built for ox cart and wer there
for cart road, the nam being synony
mous with good roads, in which sense It
Is still employed. Ths building of these
roads has been of vast commercial bene
fit to th Island. Th World Today.
