will tomorrow issue the formal procla
nation calling for the election of dele.
gates 10 the convention.
Convention Opens October 8.
The enabling act provides that the
delegates shall convene at Santa Fe

which would make the opening of the
convention occur on October 3.
No official notification in writing has

time for registration and other formal
ties throughout the territory. The regu.
lar meeting date of the county commis'
sioncrs in the various counties is July

exempifled than by the opposition OF
Roosevelt and the Roosevelt policies
with Sherman and servility to the
powers which made and operate such
political automations as Sherman; as
between Cummins and Frank Jackson;
between Bristow and Cannon; between
Ballinger and Pinchot and Garfield;
between Wickersham and Web Byers.
The comparison is clear. Let it stand.

David had been our teacher in the mat

taught to pray? The man Of Galilee

thy name" and. Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be DONE on earth as it is in
heaven" 1t is significant that when
He was asked what were the two great
commandments he said that they were
love to God and love to men
"Hallowed be Thy name" The most
carping critic of the church must
admit that she has struggled bravely
to carry out the spirit of that petition.

has made in this direction when we

BUTCHERS FIGHT oLEo TAX.
Association in Convention ii

Masters Association in Convention in
Chicaso-Consress to Be Prodded.
Chicago, Aug. 16.-Efforts toward
getting bills passed by congress repeal
ing the import duty on cattle and the
10 cent tax law on oleomargarine Will
be inaugurated at the convention OF the
United Master Butchers Of America,
which opens this morning at 10 o'clock
in the Grand Pacific hotel. Four hun
dred and fifty delegates are expected
to attend the congress, representing a
membership all over the country of
$4,000 butchers.
While no regular program has been
arranged as to the order in which the
topics will be taken up at the meetings,
Secretary John HySchof1eld of st. Louis
yesterday briefly outlined the principal
issues which will be brought before the
convention.
1--WE want to get the duty taken off
of cattle, which amounts to 81 a head
for calves and about 25 per cent for
CATTLE" said Mr.. Schofield "and in
stead we want an export duty imposed
on all shipments. AS it now stands, all
the best meat goes to Europe, for the
best has to be taken for the longest
shipments. An export duty would stop
this and bring down the price of meat
to the consumer in this country We
will endeavor to have such a bill pre-
scented at the next session of congress.
1--WE will also discuss the extension
OF our independent fat melting plant
system whereby we melt our own fat
and thereby reap the so per cent profit
instead of the middle man. We already
have many of the plants in operation
all over the country, but we want to
extend the system and do away with
the middle man altogether.
1--WE will also attempt to have the
10 cent tax On oleomargarine removed.

and increase the beef supply and di-
minish the demand for mich cows.
margarine industry than in the dairy
business, and it is just ae healthful q
food, If not more so, than butter. The
so-called 'moonshiners' don't want the
tax removed, but we will make fight
for it,
The convention was opened socially
by a grand ball last night at the Grand
Pacific. This afternoon. following the
business session of the morning, a
special train on the South Side Elevat-
ed, furnished thru the courtesy OF tho
packers, will convey the butchers on a
sight seeing trip and tour of inspection
thru the packing houses of Armour q
Co, Swift & Co., Morris & Co., and
Libby, Mcneil & Libby. President Ed
ward F. OINeill of New York arrived
yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock In
time for the ball. The convention Will
adjourn Thursday after the annual
election of officers.

The T rec.


1t stands all day by the roadside there
With its broad boughs stretching
sweet;
It bends all night with a tender care
Ger shadows around its feet.
1t asks no gift for itself, but gives
Of itself TO the world the While
With its cool green leaves where the
soft breeze grieves
And a smile like an old mans smile.
1t rears It's head Ger the plain below
With majesty, not with PRIDE
And rs arms seem Tending from it
their woe
The shadows that round it glide.
Its bark grows rough and its limbs are
gnarled
But in sunshine still and rain
1t stands there sweet with the little
street
In a world SO loud and vain.
The tree and the bush and The bird
How patiently year by year
They send their shade and their ball
sans down.
And they smile and bring US cheer.
Their modest use in the world, an, me,

Than lust 20 be what they seem 10 De,
And to dwell in tenderness.
I often stop when pass along
by a roadside tree and say
I would that my boughs We're flied
with song,
And here by the main highway
My form could shelter and shield some
child
From tempest and cold and heat;
And that could give for the life live
Some service as good and sweet
