1t is surprising the number of
newspapers that two years ago
were declaring that the Gamble
Crawford Vessey combine was the
embodiment of political purity
that today are assuring us thati is
a worse political machine than the
one that it succeeded. The anus
ing feature is that these same pa
pers now have new set of candi-
dates that they are supporting and
they are just as positive that they
are right this time as they were
two years ago. They never doubt
the infallibility OF their judgment.
and are never willing to credit any
one else with honesty who disagrees
with them.

The Huronite is disposed to

of Mr.. Branson, and as test asks
Mr.. Branson to state plainly wheth-

prefer to see man progressive

The man who is progressive fol-
lower is pretty apt TO make pret-

WILL INVESTIGATE
HIGH MEAT COSTS
Cattle Raisers of Texas Will

palladium Specially

SAN ANTONIO. Texas. Aug. 10
The meeting of the cattle growers Of
Texas and representatives of various
cities and other organizations at Fort
Worth, September IL and ID. for the
purpose of investigating the high cost
Of meats and the great discrepancy
that now exists between the price paid
for live stock on foot and the meat on
the block, is attracting nationwide at
tention. That there will be some
thing unusual doing at this meeting is
indicated by the interest manifest.
Discussing the meeting and what it
hopes to accomplish, Captain Charles
Schreiner, of kerrville, a prominent
sheep and cattle raiser, said:
we shall attempt to find out why
there is variance of 800 per cent be-
tween what the producer receives and
what the consumer pays. and will en-
deavor to take action to remedy this
condition: at least we will start a cru

the salvation of both consumer and
producer it must be arrived at short
ly. When the producer is selling his
cattle at a loss and the consumer is
paying an exhorbitant price for his
meat, the situation evidences an eco
nomic discrepancy that can not long
continue. The trouble lies with the
packer and retailer, and l am inclined
to believe that the latter is even more
to blame than the former. However,
1t is hard to fix the blame at the pres
ent time, but it stands to reason that
there is something radically wrong.
This year the producer is receiving 81
per hundred less than he received last
year, yet the price of meat has stead
lily advanced. So it appears there is
illegitimate profit somewhere be.
tween the producer and the consumer.
If profit was made last year when
higher prices were paid for cattle and
sheep, surely the profit is now excess

Just what course will be pursued at
the Fort Worth meeting is not known,
but that something will be done to
get at the facts in the case is evil
denced by the widespread interest in

Av|ATORS TO GIVE
BENEFIT EXHIBITION
Chicago Meet Extended One
Day to Raise Money
for Mrs. tombstone.
(National News Association

CHICAGO, Aug. 19.-Chicago's av-
iation meet will be extended for one
day-not by the promoters but by the
aviators themselves.
This was fully determined today.
The object is a benefit meet for Mrs
st. Croix tombstone, widow of the gal
liant aviator who was drowned when
his biplane fell into Lake Michigan
Tuesday.
The entire proceeds of the extra
day which is expected to amount to
about ST., 1000 are to be handed to Mrs.
tombstone as a mark of the esteem
the young birdmen held for her hus-
band.
Prediction was made today that
more records will be smashed before
the meet is over. Oscar Brindley yes
terday scared HIPS feet in the air,
breaking the altitude record set two
weeks ago by Captain Felix in France.
The weather today is perfect and
it was said that Brindley might at.
tempt today to beat his own record
and set the mark little higher One
of the remarkable things about the
performance is that Brindley has been
flying for only three months. He
learned 10 operate a machine in three
hours.
Tom Sopwith. the English aviator
has carried off $11,670 in prize money
so far. exceeding his nearest competi
tor, Lincoln Beachey, by more than
$4,000. Sopwith has made remarkable
flights as he uses either a monoplane
or biplane with equal facility.
Aviators today are enraged at the
promoters of the meet for a number OF
things. The continuance of the con
test after two men had been killed on
Tuesday started them. Then, on two
days, they were compelled to fly in
high winds, which were dangerous tC
life and limb. Talk of a strike, how
ever, was to be declared to be without
foundation.
