Hest possible date. His firm already has
a considerable number of beef cattle
contracted for at this place, shipment
of which was stopped recently by the
financial furry. Financial matters now
having gained their regular channel, his
firm will resume their purchase of the
beef of Okanogan county, which is OF
greater value on the market than that
grown in most any other locality.
Publication in the News recently Of
the condition of cattle in the valley gen
orally, and the probable shortage of hay
in this section, no doubt fastened the
arrival of the buyer, packers desiring
to get in all the good beef possible as
well as to relieve the situation here in
feeding. Mr. Allison came quite well
posted as to the local situation The
News article was reprinted by the out
side papers.
1t is estimated there are between 500
and 600 head of prime beef cattle in the
valley, and it is probable Mr.. Allison
will get the lions share of this amount
Yesterday he went to the ranch of the
Methow Cattle Company, where his firm
has contracted for 200. While he will
get out just as soon as possible, he eX-
poets to be in this vicinity the rest of
this week, and will probably make his
getaway on Monday mornings stage
Taking out these cattle at this time will
put the valley ranchers and Stockmen
in tip-top condition as to feeding the re-
mainder of their focks for the rest of
the winter, and will be the means of dis
tributing upward of $4,000 to local
money circulation.

HOW THE MEAT PACKERS BEAR TIL E

and found that the consumers were
paying the highest prices in the United
States. A pound of beefsteak cost the
man who lived in Seattle, Tacoma or
Spokane, several cents more than it
cost the man living in Omaha, Mime
apolis or Chicago.
From this it appeared that the farm
err in this part of the country should
be getting a proportionately high
price for beef on the hoof, otherwise
there was no apparent reason for the
high prices to the consumer.
The Ranch investigated into this
subject and found that the farmer was
getting such a price for his beef that
there was actually no profit in the
business under present conditions.

classes of our citizenship. But COM
ing, as it does at this time, when the
earning power of the wage earners
has been reduced, when the profits for
the small business man have been
largely curtailed, and when every one
is making concessions in order that all
may pull through together and leave
our prosperity unimpaired, it appears
as an absurdly illogical feature of the
present situation.
The Ranch has had occasion during
past months to investigate this matter
Even when our prosperity was at the
full tide, four or five months ago, there
were features which attracted our at
tention as being totally unwarranted,
which we decided to get at the bot
tom of. The most important one OF
these was the adversely which the live
stock interests of the Northwest seem
ed to be suffering. Every other branch
of farming was prospecting. The horti-
culturist was receiving unheard OF
prices for his apples and other fruits.
The dairy farmer was prospecting and
waxing rich from the profits of his
business. The wheat farmer was get
ting dollar bushel for his grain in
spite of the tremendous production of
the Inland Empire. Only the live stock
farmer, among all these, was in the
clutches of hard times, and losing
money at business which should have
been extremely profitable.
What was the reason for this? The
Ranch looked into the prices of meat
in the great Northwestern markets,
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1908-02-01

We published letters from various sub
scribers and readers citing specific
instances in which they had offered
choice beef to the meat packers and
had been able to realize only a few
cents pound, less than it had cost to
feed and fatten the animal. And it
did not matter what packer the beef
was offered to, the price that Was quot
ed him was CORRESPONDENCE low. We
looked up the prices that the much
maligned "meat trust" of the Middle
West was paying for beef in those
markets, and found that the price was
several cents pound higher than the
Northwestern packers were offering.
At the same time beef in the cities
where the meat trust" was marketing
it's produce was several cents less to
consumers than in the cities of the
Pacific Northwest.
The Ranch further determined that
the packers of the Pacific Northwest,
in order to obtain the amount OF raw
beef that they need, have been in the
custom of going into the Montana and
California markets and there compel
ing with the Eastern packers and pay
ing good prices. In fact, the packers
as much as acknowledged that they
did this. In other words, the live stock
produced in the Pacific Northwest is
insufficient to supply the markets
through these packing houses, but,
nevertheless, so anxious are these
packers to hold the price, that they
pay Northwestern growers down to

~ITIZENS of Seattle, Tacoma and
other cities will recall that with
in the last week or two the re-
tail butchers have advanced the price
of beef to consumers, thereby increas-
ing the cost of living to the majority
of the city and great portion of the
country population of the State of
Washington. This advance in the cost
of living comes in the face of untoward
business conditions, when many men
are out of employment and wages have
suffered a general reduction.
At any other time such an advance
in the cost of meat might not be so
noticeable, although it must be ad-
mitted that this staple food has be-
come almost prohibitive to the poorer

YOUNGEST CANDIDATE
John T. G. Crawford of Florida AS
pires For Position of Delegate
to National Convention.
Special to the Herald

Special to the Herald.
Pensacola, Fla, June 9.-Now that
it is definitely settled that the entire
Florida delegation to the Denver con-
vention will be for William J. Bryan
for the presidential nomination, it is
interesting to note the fact that in
this district John T. G. Crawford,
who, although leading his nearest
competitor by nice plurality, will
have to enter a second primary to de-
eide the matter, is probably the
youngest candidate who ever aspired
to national delegates position.
Mr.. Crawford, who has barely at
tanned his legal majority, was cam
paign manager for Governor Napo-
leon B. Broward in the recent spec
tacular primary race for United
States senator. 1t will be necessary
to hold a second primary to decide
this contest also, and Mr. Crawford
will again manage the governors
campaign. Both as campaign man.
ager and as a candidate in his own
behalf he has established something
of a precedent as to extreme youthful
ness.
Mr.. Crawford belongs to a family
which for years has been prominent
in public life in this state His grand
father was for many years secretary
of state of Florida, and his father, H.
Clay Crawford, is now holding that
portfolio. His brother, w. B. Craw-
ford, is proprietor of the Evening
News of this city and also a man of
prominence in political affairs.

We don't simply say Hyomei will
cure catarrh, but we say that Bratton

to cure catarrh, or money back. They
do more-they guarantee it to cure
asthma, bronchitis, hay fever, coughs
and colds. A complete Hyomei out

and extra bottles, if you afterwards
need one, will cost but so cents. Hyo-

The late John VandercooK, presi-
| dent of the United Press, in an ar
| ticle on Hughes, said:
Palestine daily herald. [volume] (Palestine, Tex.) 1902-1949, 1908-06-09

the most popular man in the state
and assert freely that few men ever
were as popular with the people at
large. But, they usually add, he does
not take advantage of his opportu,
nifty.
The late John VandercooK, presi.
dent of the United Press, in an ar.
ticle on Hughes, said:
Some think Hughes at heart a
Wall street lawyer-some say that
he is moral prig. The bulk of his
really earnest popular support comes
from the upstate ''hayseed districts.
We're he ever made president, he
probably would pursue the course he
has as governor, that is, he would
never take up a thing until he under
stood it thoroughly, and then pushed
it through with calm insistent pa
tience, falling back always on the
same it's right argument when any
body wanted to change his mind"
Hughes first sprang into public no.
tice as counsel for the Legislative
committee in the gas investigation in
New York City in 1905. Then quickly
followed the life insurance investiga-
ton in which he won national fame
and which brought him the nomina-
ton for governor. Before these events
he had been deep thinking, hard
working lawyer, known more to law
yers than to laymen. Other attorneys
sought his advice on tangled points.
He had lectured on law in Cornell
and was looked upon
somewhat as a professor in practice
until he doomed up as man of ac-
ton.
One phase of Hughes character is
by his action on the
Hearst bill providing for recount of
the ballots cast in the Mcclellan
Hearst mayorality election in New
York, which Hearst claims he won,
but was counted out. Hearst had
