Suffrage.
The Republican party. reaffirming
its faith in government of the people,
by the people, for the people, as a
measure of justice to one-half the
adult people of this country, favors
the extension of the suffrage to wom-
en-, but recognizes the right of each
state to settle this question for itself.
Such are our principles, such are
our purposes and policies. We close
as we began. The times are danger
Gus and the future is fraught witI9
peril. The great issues of the day
have been confused by words and
phrases. The American spirit which
made the country and saved the
Union has been forgotten by those
charged with the responsibility of
power. We appeal to all Americans

Transportation.
Interstate and intrastate transpor-
tation have become so interviewer that
the attempt to apply two and often
several sets of laws to its regulation
has produced conflicts of authority,
embarrassment In operation and in
convenience and expense to the pub
lie.

Welcome, Whatever the Name

Enter the grayfsh as an important fac
tor In reducing the high cost OF living
Heretofore. il has been known as the dog
fish, and has had to take a lowly place IN
the scheme Of things, scorned because OF It's
name. Now, under new and more allur-
ing cognomen, it is 10 make bid for pop
ularity which no less an authority than
the Bureau Of Fisheries Of the Department
Of Commerce says is well deserved.
The grayfish, it seems, is no sea-scav-
enger, but a clean feeder. It eats fish,
crabs, shrimps, even lobsters-the fare OF
such sea aristocrats as the bluefish, cod
and haddock. 1t is so voracious that 1t has
been the pest Of fishermen, tearing their
nets in order to get at the fish impounded
therein, and stripping trawl lines of their
bait. But this very voraciousness, hereto
fore the plague Of fshermen's lives, will
render it easy Of capture. Excellent when
eaten fresh, the grayish is destined TO its
greatest usefulness when sailed, smoked
or canned, according TO the Bureau OF
Fisheries. 1t Is not low grade COM
modify, though low priced, for it is rich,
wholesome and generally excellent
Grayfsh hash, loaf, scallop, chop suey,
cmelet, salad and chowder, New England
style, may soon be familiar dishes on the
bill Of fare of the economical housekeeper,
If this estimabe sea pirate attains the
popularity to which the authorities deem
him entitled He is said to be a worthy
rival Of the succulent salmon or the tuna,
commonly called funny. For all of which,
and particularly for his low price in this
period of stress, his past should be for
given and his new career Of usefulness be
hailed with acclaim.

The Stand of Democratic Women
"a Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: There seems to be some misunder-
standing concerning the presence OF names
Of Democratic women on the COMMITTEES for
the luncheon to be given Saturday by the
Congressional Union for Woman Suffrage To
receive the report of the campaign against
the Democratic party In the suffrage states
This campaign was not partisan, bvt was
Organized to protest against the action, OF
non-action, of the Democratic Administration
last winter on the suffrage issue. The call
70 the women voters TO form a national
yoman's party, 70 effect the enfranchisemens
Of all women, went to Democrats and Repub-
licans alike, and both groups responded.
Prominent Democratic women like Mrs. Will
lam Kent campagned against Wilson with
marked effect. There is not the slightest
doubt If it had not been for this move on the
part of loyal suffragists 10 put their cause
above all else in the world that Wilson's ma
iority would have been considerably larger
in those Western States.
The Democratic women on the luncheon
committee are loyal Democrats, but they ara
loyal sufragists also, and they are glad 20
take this opportunity TO express publicly, as
did the women of the West in the last cam
pagn, their protest against the refusal Of the
Democratic Administration TO give justice 10

A JOLT FOR fasteners
Narowmindedness That Misunderstands
Other Sections of the Country

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: The letter signed sc. r. A." in this
mornings Tribune vilifying the western part
n this Union is calculated to create or IN
crease sectional hatred in this country. 1t is
a sort Of animal instinct in most men tha'
each lmagines the particular country or sec
tion which he honored with his birth is per-
feet. and all countries or sections not SO
bonored are inferior and bad. We can for
give an ignorant foreigner for this egotism'
but an American who Is SO ignorant OF his
native country as 70 say such things OF an
other part Of his own country than that IN
which he was born is beyond excuse.
Nearly every man In the West, Ike &C. r. A.
himself came from the East, or Is a descend
ant OF an fastener. A slight general dif-
ference lies In the fact that those who went
West had moro enterprise, ambition, daring
and courage than those who stayed at home
with mother.
Los Angeles, from which &c. R. A." writes,
probably has more people recently from the
Eas. than any other city in the West, and is
therefore more typical OF the East, II there
be any difference.
&c. r. A" seems TO base his wisdom about
the Westerner upon the fact that the West
gave Wilson a small majority. Wilson is not
a "Westerner'; besides, nearly half Of the
men In the East voted for Wilson, as did
most Of the men in the South. Upon the
other hand, Roosevelt was the choice Of the
majority Of the Westerners, In fact, is him
self very much Of Westerner. We never
heard Of his being considered "efeminate."
Probably the reason that many men in the
West voted for Wilson was to give the
bgoted Eastern politicians jolt. They got
it. They will get it again il Fasteners con-
tinue TO show such narrowmindedness as is
exhibited in the letter referred to.

Damages, Six Cents

a Jury in the Supreme Court has gwen
a verdict in the first libel suit TO come to
trial as the result Of Samuel Hopkins
Adams's articles in The Tribune. Where
this verdict leaves the plaintiff is mani
fest. He claimed that he was libelled when
it was written Of him that he dealt IN
fakes, frauds and swindles in a large
and commodious pitfall on Fifth Ave
nue." But his plea for $4,000 damages
was cut by jury of business men to the
contemptuous sum Of six cents.
Other publishers may well take courage
from this vindication of a newspapers
right TO expose deceptive and other vicious
methods in business. No one has seriously
questioned the value of the public service
rendered by The Tribune's work Of giving
pitiless publicity to little concerns and big
which abuse public confidence. Many men
have shaken their heads over the risks
that have been run; but this jury decision
must put courage into the hearts Of even
the most timorous A newspaper need
fear TO court hindrance if it honestly and
truthfully exposes bad trade practices.
Throughout the country the Associated
Advertising Clubs are eliminating the
lnavish and unprincipled dealer. Better
business bureaus and vigilance commit
tees are doing a work Of which New York
ers know all too little. The Tribune is
proud of its latest contribution to the
cause with which these and other business
men Of the finest and cleanest type arc in
creasingly becoming associated.
