now 3 cents and s cents, respectively.
The Tribune is •welcome at any price.
I*s distribution of news, editorial matter

party's behalf; a paper the editorial col

If a -challenger of this assertion arise f let
hitn "who challenges compare The Tribune
•with any other paper in New York, line for
line, column for column, on any day of the

JUDGES PRAISE TRIBUNE.
Predict Wider Field of Influence Be
cause of Reduced Price.
Three New Jersey judges now sitting in
Hudson County, and all of them readers ot
the paper since boyhood, prated The Trib
une yesterday for its reduction in; price to
one. ,-c,. t a copy and said that a largo
number of persons who hitherto had felt
unable to pay three cents a day for it
would now become permanent readers. The
ridges were. John A. Blair, Benjamin .1.
Vail and William H. Speer.
"I read The Tribune 365 days in the
year." Judge Vail paid, "and my father
read It before me. The cheaper price now
makes it possible for every one to purchase
a p:-per of the high standing of The Trib
un«». and its Influence will be greater than
ever."
Judge Blair paid he echoed Judge Vail's
sentiments, as he, too. had been a reader
slnece he was able to read, and his father
before him. •
Judge Spe-r .....j,; he agreed with all his
fellow Judges had said.
A DEMOCRATIC VIEW.
From the Nashville American.
Th<; New-York Tribune's reduction to on*
cent a copy should remind people that the
newspaper business, discriminated against
as it Is by protective tariff. Is the only
industry th.is affected which still has re
gard for the consumer's abilities.
NARROW COLUMNS— BROAD VIEWS.
From The Houston Post.
Th". New-York Tribune lias returned to
the narrow measure editorial columns, but
some very broad views may be expressed
in narrow columns If you put the right
kind of man in charge of the typewriter.

SIR E.MONSON DEAD
Career of the Well Known
English Diplomat.
London, Oct. 29.— sir Edmund John Mon-
BCn, formerly British Ambassador to
Franc?, died to-day.
Sir Edmund John Monson, scholar and
statesman, had been a prominent figure in
the British diplomatic service for nearly
forty years. It was he who in ISSt was
chosen by the American and Danfsn go*.
ernments to arbitrate the Butterfield claim,
an exceedingly difficult question, arising eat
o! tho detention by the authorities of the
inland of St. Thomas of two American ships
or, the ground that they carried contra
band of war for Venezuela. He decided
against the United States, but SO satisfied
was this government with the judgment of
Sir Edward that it Joined Denmark in pre
sent to him a service of silver plate.
Another striking Incident in his career
occurred while be was representing his gov
ernment in France at the time of the Fa
shoda affair. He delivered a speech before,
the English Chamber of Commerce In Faris
In which lie severely criticised the French
government. There was gr*at indignation
Ir. Taris as a result. His general conduct
of the affair, however, smoothed the diffi
culty, and p»ac« was maintained. So high
ly was he esteemed when he retired In 1901
that lie took with him the cross of tho
Legion of Honor.
Sir Edmund was born in 1534, third son of
the sixth Baron Monson, and was educated
at Eton and at Balliol College. Oxford.
Having been nominated as an attache .in
the diplomatic service In March. IS.VI. and
having passed the necessary examination
three months afterward, he was appointed
to the British Embassy In Paris and began
his diplomatic career. He was secretary
to the late T,ord Lyons, British Minister to
the United States, from IKS to 1563. In that
period he was sent by his chief to see how
the land lay In Cuba, where he was th«
guest of Marshal Serrano. On Ills return
he visited New Orleans, being entertained
by the Slidells, and was at the theatre
when the news arrived that the Confeder
ate flag had been hoisted on Fort Stimter.
Subsequently he saw much of President
Lincoln.
After serving as secretary and minister
in different capitals be was appointed En
voy Extraordinary and Minister MenU
potentiary to the King of Denmark in De
cember, JBS4. and to a similar capacity "with
the King of the Hellenes in 1888. He was
nppointed Envoy Extraordinary and Min
ister Plenipotentiary to the King of the
Belgians in 1892, and was promoted to be
Ambassador to the Austrian Court in July,
1593. In the same month he was sworn a
member of the Privy Council. Ho became
Ambassador to Frame In 1896, retiring
seven years asro.
Sir Edmund Monson was a man of great
personal charm, famous for his accom
plishments. His wife, whom he married m

MORALS IX SCHOOLS.
Talk by Dr. John M. Thomas
at Convocation^.
Albany. Oct. 29.— That the school or the
college is an instrument for the dally in
culcation of moral lessons was pointed out
by Dr. John M. Thomas, president of Mid
dlcbury College. Vermont, In an address
to-night before the University Convocation
of the State on "Moral Education in High
Schools and Colleges." Dr. Thomas said
in closing: . ,
As 'indicative of the spirit which should
animate our work and the temper which
should pervade ar institution of learning. I
hare ventured to compass the learner's
ideal in a series of propositions which I
have dared— l trust not irreverently— to
call "the student's Ten Commandments":
1. Thou shalt set tfie service of God and
man before thine heart as the end of all
thy work.
2. Thou shalt inquire of each study what
it has lor thee as a worker for the better
world, not relinquishing thy pursuit of it
until thou hast sained Its profit unto this
end.
3. Thou shalt love the truth, and only the
truth, and welcome ail truth gladly, wheth
er it bring thee or the world joy or suffer
ing, pleasure or hardship, ease or toll.
4. Thou shalt meet each task at the mo
ment assigned for it with a willing heart.
... Thou shalt work each day to the limit
of thy strength, consistently with the yet
harder work which shall be thy duty on
the morrow.
6. Thou shalt respect the rights and
pleasures of others, claiming no privilege
for thyself but the privilege of service,
and allowing thyself no joy which does
not increase the joy of thy fellow men.
7. Thou shalt love thy friends more than
thyself, thy college more than thy friends,
thy country more than thy college, and
God more than all else.
8. Thou shalt rejoice In the excellence of
others, and despise nil rewards saving the
gratitude of thytfellows and the approval
of God.
9. Thou shalt liv» by thy best, holding
thyself relentlessly to those ideals thou
dost most admire in other men.
10. Thou shalt make for thyself command
ments harder than another can make for
thoe. and each new day commandments
more rigorous than thine own laws of the
day before,
DR. RHECa SrEAKS.
Dr. Rush Rhoes, president of the Uni
versity of Rochester, spoke, on the topic
'Applied Science and Liberal Culture."
At the afternoon session Dr. Andrew S.
Draper, State Commissioner of Education,
addressed the convocation on "The Rela
tive Educational Standing of New York
State." He said:
Now York has reason enough for feeling
very weD over t!:r- peace aiul promise of
her educational situation, but that i* not
all. P'k~ has educational necci<j. she needs
better supervision vi' the country schools;
sin- needs more complete vita! statistics
and more Informing school statistics, and
she requires that the work and the inflii
race <■! the colleges and universities shall
be.ir much more strongly upon the organi
zation an.l the work of the middle and the
lowe r schools.

ENTER SUFFRAGISTS
SOW A REAL PARTY.
Mrs. Clarence Mnckay Chair
man of Carnegie Hall Meeting.
The theory of the woman suffragists- of
New York and the means they Intend to
use In making it an actuality were read out
to the world by Mr*. Clarence H. Mackay
from the platform of Carnegie Hall last
night and formally ratified by the First
"Woman Suffrage Convention of the City of
New York. The convention also elected
permanent officers, to continue Its existence
as an organized party.
It was the first great convention on
woman suffrage In America called and
managed throughout entirely by women, a
fact which the leaders did not leave un
noted. The delegates, chosen in open pri
maries of suffragist* voting by Assembly
districts, filled the floor of the hall. The
boxes made a brave showing, occupied by
patrons who had purchased then for the
benefit of the cause, and the galleries over
flowed with visitors who were as ready as
the delegates themselves to show their ap
preciation of the historic business which
was toward. . .
Mrs. Frederick Nathan brought the con
vention to order with three very chalrmanly
wraps of the gavel. In her opening speech
she permitted herself the quiet pleasantry
at mankind's political methods in which
other suffrage leaders have been known to
Indulge.
THE CXKIXDE3T Cl T
"Our political methods are above re
proach," she said. "We have copied men
proceedings only up to a certain point; we
have not thrown out any regularly elected
delegates to this convention nor have we
taken them by the throat and forced them
into line with our programme."
Mrs. John Winters Brannan then read her
report as chairman of the committee on
i:omlnattons, and the ticket as nh« present
ed It was elected forthwith. The officers
were Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt. permanent
president, and the following three borough
secretaries: Mr?. Priscilla P. Hackstaff for
Brooklyn. Mrs. Alice M. GttTord for Man
hattan and Mrs. .lean Penfleld for The
Bronx. Mrs. Nathan then presented Mr?.
Catt as permanent chairman.
The flare and muffled explosion of a dozen
flashlight bags hung: In the middle, of the
house, stopped the. applause with a shock
Just a* it was growing Into the dimensions
of a campaign demonstration. When th«
audience was quiet again Mrs. Catt took
the meeting in hand.
"We have been asked." she said, "what
we can gain by this convention. Well,
here are a thousand women who know what
Assembly district they live In. which they
never knew batata. That Is something.
We have held a real election. We have
elected delegates to fill every seat on this
floor. We must make converts of the
men. so that they will vote for our cause
when It comes before them we must con
vert the women, so they will convert the
men.
"I have been asked how soon we shall
have woman suffrage. ' It rests with you
whether we have it in three years or ten
or fifty. If the suffragists do one-quarter
of what those who are now really working
for us do. I promise that you will have the
ballot in your hands within four years."
MRS. MACKAY SPEAKS.
The chairman then introduced Mrs.
Mackay to read the platform for the con
vention.
"I hope the convention will adopt the
platform In Its entirety," Mrs. Mackay
said. "Many have asked me what It Is the
suffragists stand for. I am anxious that
the first full presentation of our cause in
definite form should come from New York
and from. this convention.
"The woman's suffrage Is a humanitarian
movement. . It Is Inspired by the desire la
help social and philanthropic reforms
through the mother's active participation
in the life of the state. We believe that
woman suffrage is not a fight for rights,
but the natural evolution of justice.
Therefore, we appeal to all men present to
join us in our work because of what their
mother?, or their wives, or their daughters
mean to them. .We appeal to all women
here to-night to join us because of their
loyalty to their womanhood."
HERE'S THE PLATFORM.
Mrs. Mackay then read the declaration,
the cardinal points of which are:
Men and women are born equally free
and independent members of the human
race, equally endowed with Intelligence and
ability, and equally entitled to the free
exercise* of their individual rights and lib
erty.
Self-government in the home and the
state Is the Inalienable right of every nor
mal adult, and the refusal of this right
to women has resulted In social, legal an l
economic injustice to them, an.l has also
intensified the existing economic disturb
ances throughout the world.
Governments which impose taxes and
laws upon their women citizens without
giving them the right of consent, or dis
sent, which is granted to men citizens, ex
ercise a tyranny inconsistent with just gov
ernment. "
The ballot is the only legal and perma
nent means of defending the rights to "lite,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness." pro
nounced inalienable by the American Decla
ration of Independence and accepted as in
alienable by all civilized nations.
Resolved, that w*>. women citizens ot
the city of New York, agree to join with
other women of our state and nation in an
appeal to Congress to submit to the legis
latures of the several states an amendment
to the federal Constitution which shall pro- j
hibit the abridgment of the right of any
citizen to vote on account of sex. and tnat |
we. appeal to the legislature of our state j
to submit to popular vote a constitutional
amendment which shall extend the fran
chise to women.
Resolved. Thar a deputation wait upon
the charter legislative committee of our
city and urge that the following sugges- .
tions he incorporated into Its recom- j
mendations to the Legislature:
That th*» charter be amended so as to re. [
quire that at least one-third of the mem- j
l«-r* of the Board of Education be women.
That th» charter be amended si> as to re- ;
quire that at least three of the members |
of the board of Believes and Allied Hos
pitals be women.
That th« charter be amended so as to re
quire that the compensation of teachers,
like the compensation of employes In the
municipal Civil Service, be determined In
accordance with the title and grade .if
position and not by the sex of the worker.
And further be it resolved. That nieaa- !
urc«t be taken to secure amendment of Un- :
civil Service law of the state to the effect .
that no citizen shall be excluded from any j
examination on account of sex. unless it •
car, satisfactorily bo shown that such ex- ;
elusion Is rendered necessary by the nature j
of the work to be done.
And filially, be It resolved. That a depu
tation wait upon the Mayor tc urge tho
appointment of women to at least three of
th*> nine vacancies to occur in the Hoard
of Education on January 1. 1910.
THEY DEBATE ON IT.
The burst of applause which followed the :
reading of the resolutions was not to be
quelled by the most energetic efforts of taw
chairman, and the handclapping kept up i
until it was plain that it was Intended M a
personal tribute to Mr*. Mackay. She
stepped to the front or the platform and
exclaimed Impulsively:
"You don't know ho-*' glad i am you ap- I
preciate our work so. You don't know j
what this means to me. I've never spoken •
here before, and— l'm frightened n*ar to
death."
More appia'i^e followed, and then a youn; j
woman rose from the floor to move that
the first and second resolutions ;••■ adopted j
as lie general platform of Hit- conA'entlon i
and that the resolution concerning the re- i
vision of the , ii- charter be made the !
working programme for local effort.
The ftrsi parties. of het* met na< ear- I
.... readily after a speech by Mr*. Man lot !
Stiinlon Blatch. The second part precipi
tated a long debate, mostly concerned witr»
amendments, which failed of adoption.
Mrs, {Catherine C. D'ack made a pl*a let
tlis clause recommending tn at women serve
on the Board of Education, and Dr. Jane
Bobbins followed her to the saem effect.
An amendment was proposed demand
ing a full one-third of the membership and
another calling for one-half.
Miss Grace Dodge ' spoke for equal : par
for teachers, and Hiss Helen Spencer,;
president of the Women -Telegraphers* Un
ion. seconded her. The resolutions were
finally adopted.
The convention then approved a liar. of
names which were suggested to' the\?iayor
as candidates for the places on the Board
of Education. The women nara^d 'wer«
