man is raised also. The missions must
be for both sexes. Thus applies equally
at home and abroad. No race can rise
as high as it should unless woman rises
with man.

produce excitement was when Represen-
tatiVe Tawney offered a resolution pro-
posing the list Of six men as named. I'm
mediateiy there was objection from an
insurgent from Iowa, to the restricted
nominations, and an informal nominating
ballot was proposed.
MIR. Tawney demurred and Represen-
tative Mccall of Massachusetts, told him
that in New England when a slate was
brought into a convention it was gen
orally considered not a Democratic way
OF doing things. He believed there should
be an open ballot. Representative Payne

tied the controversy by declaring, amid
applause, in favor of an informal ballot.

1t is conceded that much will depend

Brooklyn, Jan. 20, 1910.
Editor of the Tribune:
Sir: Again it is announced that
the price of meat is going up. Can
Anyone tell why? is there any good
reason? Has there been good rea-
son for it's steady rise for the past
few years? Must We continue to
*tpay, pay, pay" without protest how
ever high the prices soar? Shall we
continue to heap ducats upon those
who already have more than enough?
The wholesalers attempt to shift the
blame But If the cattle raisers are
the beneficiaries, why are they going
out of the business? If the retailers
are getting the extra money, why do
they not show signs of prosperity?
And why is it that the wholesale
men are men of wealth, whose for
tunes are steadily on the increase?
is it necessary that the price of corn,
the gold question or other excuses,
enter into the discussion, when we
realize the great and increasing
wealth of these men? Is that not
quite enough to prove that the con-
sumner will be squeezed as long as he
consents to be?
We are encouraged that there is to
be an investigation by congress. but
while the matter is going through the
decentralization office,' I would sug-
gest to your readers that they regis
ter VOW to abstain from buying meat
after the first day of. February, until
the prices are reduced to reasonable
figures. 1t may be that in this way,
and in this way only, the consumer
may protect himself.
Yours truly.
