MEAT PRICES TO JUMP

Arthur B. Hayes, attorney for the
American Meat Packers Association.
yesterday filed with the Interstate Com
merce Commission a formal protest
against the proposed addition Of $4,000, ,0OC
to the nations meat bill in the form OF
advanced freight rates.
The protest is in the form Of a COM
plant alleging the rates proposed out
rageously high and beyond reason be-
cause they are additions to rates which
in a large section Of the country are al
ready much higher than they were prior
to May, 1910. The proposed rates. 1t Is
stated, will compel the live stock ana
packing house industries to pay 40 per
cent OF the S50.OoOoOO increase in the ma
TONS freight bill. while the total tonnage
furnished by these industries is less than
2 per cent OF the total on which it Is
proposed to impose higher rates.
Much Of the country's meat food sup
ply comes from the Missouri River Sec
ton. Rates on fresh and cured meats
from Missouri River points to Chicago
in the last four years will have been in
creased As per cent. That means, with
the addition now proposed, an increase
on fresh meats from Omaha TO New
York Of $40 per car, and on cured
meats of $3.50 per car.
Effects washington's Meat.
This increase also applies to shipments
to all points in New England, Philadei-
phia, Wilmington, Baltimore. Washing
ton, and all the smaller cities surround
ing them.
Products Of the live stock and pack
ing industries today pay higher freight
rates to the railroads, on an average
than do the products of agriculture,
mines or forests" said George Y. Nc
Carthy, secretary of the American Meat
Packers Association. The average profit
in the packing industry during recent
years has been cents on each dollar
of sales. It eminently is unfair to PEN
alize US with increased freight rates so
much out of proportion with increases
asked of other industries operating on
much wider margins OF profit
Since the filing Of these tariffs / have
received letters and kilograms from all
over the United States insisting that
every effort be used to obtain a suspen-
sion of the proposed increases until the
matter can be given a thorough hearing.
The live stock industry in particular has
suffered severely during the last few
months because OF the foot-and-mouth
disease and the burden OF an increase
in rates should not be placed upon the
live stock breeder and shipper at this
time"

To Press Subscribers

1t had always been the rule of
the publishers to require cash in
advance on all subscriptions and
to stop subscriptions at expiration
of time, but for several months
subscription credit plan has been
tried out. This has proven so un-
satisfactory that the cash in ad-
vance system will be adhered to

II. 5. will present the first play of
the year at the Holt opera house,
November 13.
In making this work a part of the
regular high school course, the facul-
ty hope to attain results well worth
while, for in no other way can the
student be initiated in appearing
before the public so easily; in no
other course can so much stress be
placed on the proper use of the voice,
on correct posture and carriage, and
on attaining ease Of manner.
The department has for its aim the
presentation, from time to time, not
only of comedies of the lighter sort,
but also standard pieces of dramatic
literature, including, within the course
of the year, one play of Shakespeare,
another of the time of Goldsmith and
Sheridan, besides two modern ones,
of which one may be a COMEDY and
the other a heavier play.
In presenting "My Uncle From In
dia," we offer a play which, on ac-
count of its humorous situations, is
very acceptable to the public, with
out making too great demands OH the
acting ability of the students. It's
types of character are strongly
marked-an irascible old uncle, a
promising nephew, presumptuous
tailor, diffident "bookworm," a pc
culiar spinster-lady, addicted to spir-
itualism-these and others make a
combination which affords both in
teress and amusement as each strug-
giles through the ENHANCEMENT of the
plot.
The High School hopes that the
public will give its usual hearty sup
port to this endeavor, because an un-
dertaking of this kind is really ar
arduous task, if not an ordeal, as
anyone can testify who has tried it.
The school has many uses for the
money thus gained. An athletic fund
of more or less elasticity is necessary
in almost all high schools. Besides
this, floor for the girls gymnasium
work, rehearsals, ETC., is very much
needed, not to mention pictures, an
other piano, stage scenery-aH of
which we should like to have, but for
which We hesitate to apply to the
school board, knowing well that great
demand has already been made upon
the funds at their disposal in provid-
ing the necessary buildings and equip
ment for the rapid increase of STU
dents. Aside from this, it is a good
experience for body of young peo-
pie TO earn an object of artistic en-
joyment-which is a luxury and not
necessity-by their own efforts.
The value of the business expert
ence gained in producing play can
not he overestimated-t contact
with the business men of the town,
the eXactness required in keeping ac-
count of the expenses fer the produc-
tion and receipts from The sale of
tickets, schemes for advertising, the
necessity of pleasing the public if you
want the public's money-these and
other important things may be learned
in connection with this activity.
We, as a school, wish to appeal to
the generosity of our patrons ir their
criticism Of our efforts. In the first
place, the students are young for this
