FREE HIDES AND CHEAP MEAT,

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: Beyond the argument for free hides there is
something else Meat is chief part OF the daily
diet. Cheap meat is a blessing TO all. The action
that will further cheap meat is the right Cheap
leather is only a small item compared with cheap
meat probably to hundred.
The importation OF hides leaves the meat in a
foreign land. The raising OF cattle home gives
the home market both meat and hides. Manifestly
the raising Of cattle at home should be encouraged
Cattle are not raised for their hides alone though
the hides might in countries pay for all the
cost Here in the United States they are a by
product Still. they important part In the
profit cattle raiser expects For many years cattle
raising has not been profitable In the Eastern States
and comparatively few raised The hy-products
consequent on handling cattle in large numbers
have helped greatly in transferring the industry
the West Now the high price for meat and the
low value of farms in the East have awakened the
thought that perhaps more cattle raising in
the East may become profitable. II likely then the
Dingley duty hides should be retained.
The great increase in the number of sheep-from
&c o0Oo0 in Clevelands days of free wool and ad-
versty to $1,000 600 in the Mckinley days of tariff
onNwooi and prosperity-should be enough to show
which course to favor when considering free hides.

CALL FOR PHARMACISTS
Retail Druggists Plan Conference
on Supervision.

The Retail Druggists Protective Association, it
was learned yesterday. plans to invite all the
retail pharmacists in the state TO general con-
ference mass meeting, to be held late in August
or early In September. to push the agitation for an
altered system OF pharmaceutical supervision. a
special attempt will be made TO bring the question
Of the status Of the present Board OF Pharmacy
into the courts for settlement.
The objection 20 the present system attacks both
the method by which the board is chosen and the
extent of its powers. The Protective Association
would have the board appointed by the Governor,
and not elected BY the incorporated pharmaceuti-
cal associations. at present 1t would also re-
strict the board the examination and licensing
of candidates. and would not allow it the police
power which it has at present.
This power includes the right to make raid
on drug store at cny time and take samples Of
drugs for inspection II the drugs not strictly
or the pharmacopoea standard the druggist is fined
s29 which in this district goes to the pharmaceu-
ucaI colleges Of New York and Brooklyn. As the
members Of the board often directly interested
in these institutions the retail druggists charge
thaf unjust decisions often made against them.
Inc campaign against the present law has been
Fought out for than a year. and was espe-
