Governor JEFF Davis of Arkansas has
written to President Roosevelt, protest
ing against the reported consideration OF
Senator James X. Jones for a place on
the canal commission. In words more
forcible than polite Governor Davis calls
attention to the fact that Jones has been
repudiated by Arkansas democrats, who
turned down with a thud his application
for n reelection TO the senate, and insists
that their desire is to have Jones retired
to private life as soon as his present
term expires. 1t will Of course be a

AVERAGE CHICAGO PRICES.

1t will be noted that while the price
Of wheat this year is only slightly above
the price that prevailed six years ago,
it is more tina 80 per cent below the
price at which wheat sold four years
ago. Corn and oats have nearly trebled
in price within six years, while cattle
and hogs have fully doubled within that
period. Had 1t been possible for the
beef combine to control absolutely prices
Of live stock, it goes without saying that
it would not have paid 100 per cent
more for cattle, hogs and sheep In 1902
than was paid in 1896. 1t is as plain as
the nose on a mans face that the high
price Of the foodstuffs required In the
production Of meat has forced up the
price of live stock and is consequently
the chief factor In the rise of the price
of meat and the by-products of the pack
ing houses.
That the increase in the price of meat
and meat products may be out of pro-
portion to the ray material on the hoof
by reason Of a combination among the
buyers and packers nobody will attempt
to gainsay, but it must be patent to
everybody that the so-ealled beef trust
has not been able to suspend the laws
of supply and demand by compelling the
cattle raiser to sell at low water mark
prices, while the packers and butchers
are marketing their products at high
water mark.

followed threw the flames 80 feet high

flames into the crowd, setting their
clothes atire, and soon putting the en-

Hot milk is most nutritious bever-
age. A real luxury, the value of which
but few people know. Many who have
abundance of milk never think of us
ing it as a drink-or rather as an eat
able-for we should eat milk instead
of drinking it. That is, take it in
small sips Why? Because the casein
of milk when it comes in contact with
the acid of the gastric fluid, coagu-
lates and forms curd, and if swallowed
in large quantities at once, a large
curd is formed, which the stomach
handles with difficulty. The gastric
fluid can mingle much more readily
with the small curds that result from
slipping the milk. -London Health.
