Meat Going Up.

10 the Editor Of the Evening star:
Sir-Again 1t is announced that
the price of meat is going up.
any one tell Why? Is there n
good reason? Has there been a
good reason for its steady rise for
the past few years? Must we on
tinue to .pay. pay, pay" without
protest, however high the prices
soar? Shall we continue to heap
ducats upon those who already
have more than enough? The whole
saler attempts to shift all blame
But if the cattle raiser is the bene-
nciary why is he going u OF the
business? If the retailer is gettlng
the. extra money why does he not
show signs of prosperity? And why
is it That's the wholesale maj is a
man of wealth, whose fortune is
steadily on the increase? Is IL
necessary thai the price of corn, the
gold question or other excuses enter
into the discussion when we reallze
the great and increasing wealth OF
the wholesale man? Is moi thus
enough to prove that the
will be squeezed as long as he con-
sents to be?
, We are encouraged the. there is
to be an investigation by Congress-
but, while the matter is going
through the decentralization office,
I would suggest to your
that they register a vow to abstain
from buying meat after the first
day of February until the prices
are reduced to reasonable figr-es.
It may be that in this way, n in
this way only, the consumer may
protect himself. Yours truly,
G.. l.. SHERWOOD.

we forbore to say anything be-
cause we hated to end the contro-

opinions at variance with our
statement of fact to realize there
is nothing personal in the attitude
we take. In order to verify our off

THE POLITICIAN AS
AN OEFICE-HOLDER

ministraton of a public office isn't quite logical, and it isn't
usually borne out by the facts. But it is a theory obstinately held
In some quarters, logic and facts to the contrary Notwithstanding.
Major Carl Lentz has been a political leader for many years, but
only of late has he held public Office. And that Office is no sine
cure, by any means. That he has been active and Industrious in
his duties and has shown good Judgment and excellent capacity
for discharging them cannot be gainsaid y.his bitterest enemies.
To prescribe a man in public Office because he is or has been active
in politics is to set the seal Of condemnation upon a man because
he does what any good citizen ought to do, namely, make public
affairs a part of the business of his life. When the condemnation
comes from those who are in the habit of neglecting their citizen
ship duties it becomes farcical. A man in public Office is to be
judged by his record in Office. If that record is good, shall he,
nevertheless, be condemned and cast out because he has been too
active in politics?

other cities. Bloomfield, Montclair
and Caldwell lines could all run
from Bank street; Central avenue
the same WAY as at present; the
Paterson cars from Broad and
Chestnut; Roseville same as at
present, half from Bank street and
half from Pennsylvania railroad.
This would relieve Market street
very much and help the -Four Cor

people do on the east side of the

In this way the Corners would be
relieved for the next four or 1--WE
years, when by that time they will
be obliged to either have an UNDER

This is bound to come, as Newark

A Law TO PUTA CHECK
ON TELEPHONE RATES

must meet the responsive approval of people generally in the State.
There is now a popular revolt against high prices. Turn where
they will, the people encounter extortion. Telephone rates were
high before the recent telephone combination. They are higher now,
and may mount even higher. Dividends cannot be fat enough to
feed the greed of the men who control a popular utility like the
telephone, and in the absence of any protective law have the public
at their mercy. The telephone has grown to be a general and in
dispensable necessity, and there is absolutely no check upon the
rapacity that fixes its rates. The Legislature can provide the
check. Let us see what mercy to the public will be given before
the legislative session adjourns

STATE AGAINST
THE Il S TRUST

against the fish trust, which in three years has doubled the price
of New Jersey fish in New Jersey retail markets. The combination
to Ak the prices of fish is unlawful under the Federal law, and the
attorney general could proceed against the trust, which is a New
Jersey corporation. Extortion in fish prices is as bad as extor-
ton IN meat prices. In turning from meat to fish the people escape
one form of robbery to be victims of the other. If possible, the
fish trust is the worse of the two. It'exploits the fisheries of the
State by wellknown destructive methods; it uses cold storage to
maintain excessive prices al times when fish is most abundant in
the sea, and destroys or sells for fertilizers all the excess of fish
the market cannot take at trust prices. The Legislature has
supinely permitted this plumber of the people and of the State to
go on year after year. Shall there be no relief? Will the present
Legislature be Indifferent, too?
