It looks at this writing, as if the Cooper case will result in a mis- trial. It is no wonder. The case has been on trial nearly three months. Out of the tangled mass of millions of words addressed to them during about seventy-fve days, no twelve men would besex- pected to agree upon unanimous verdict. If Judge Lankford had had that case in the Faulkner cir cult court he would have tried it in three days. With all the facts fresh in their minds the jury would then more than likely have united upon decision.

So far as we know, the Log Cab- in Democrat has stood alone among the newspapers of the state in its opposition to the Gam bill. But we have offered our objections in the firm conviction that the pro- posed law would do immeasurable injury to the cause of prohibition. We favor prohibition, but we want to be sure that if we want to be sure that we we retain prohibi- tion at home, before we undertake to reform rest of the state. In short, if we must make a choice, we prefer to let the saloons re- main in Little Rock rather than to set up half dozen drug store sa- looms in Conway.

Refuses Executive Interference.

Little Rock, March Io.-The last hope of Charles Stinnett, a negro youth, to escape the gallows has vanished. Governor Dona- ghey refuses to interfere and the petition of many residents of Boone county for communication of the death penalty to life imprison- ment must go ungranted. Stin- nett was convicted of a criminal assault of which crime Miss Emma Lovett, an aged single woman was the victim.

EDITORIAL

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< GOOD WORK OF THE SUPREME COURT,
 The benefits of the occasional infusion of new blood into an old body has been strikingly demon strated in the Arkansas supreme court. Only few years ago this court was from twelve to twenty four months behind with it's work Unless a case was of unusual i'm portance a decision conld not be expected in less that a year from the submission of the case and often two years would elapse. It was condition gratifying perhaps to railroads and corporations which endeavor to wear out cases which they cannot win, but extremely detrimental to the interests of the great majority of litigants.
 With this state of affairs in the court, Judge Joseph M. Hill made the race for chief justice five years ago and was elected upon his pro- mise to clear the docket of the court. Following his election his associates apparently caught the spirit of his purpose and within two years his pledge was redeem ed.
 In making some changes ill the bench recently Governor Dona- ghey has been peculiarly fortunate in his selections, In view of it's tremendous importance, it was right that the great legal battle of the state against the railroads should be led by the lawyer at the head of his profession in Arkan- sas-the chief justice of the su- preme court. To fill this vacancy perhaps the most active of the associate justices was chosen as a fit successor to Judge Hill. And to take the place of Judge McCul- loch the governor, we believe, could have made no wiser or more eminently satisfactory selection than to take from the rank and file of the bar man in every manner fitted for place on the bench, Judge Sam Frauenthal.
 Under the reorganized court the good work is continuing. De- cisions are now rendered usually within one week after the submis- sion of the case. So tremendously is the court working together that a member seldom dissents from the opinion of the majority. There has been no criticism of its findings in the many important cases passed upon. So long as the court con- tinues its present activity, the peo- pie will do we'll to retain the judges who now constitute this tribunal.

PRICE FTXERS WARNED.
Ceutracts on Soap and Breakfast Food
Cancelled But Prices Are the same

Contracts on Soap and Breakfast Foed
CanceiIed-But Prices Are the Same.
Because Of advice given by United
OF selling methods has been begun this
week by a number Of manufacturing
grocer. including manufacturers OF
breakfast foods and OF soap. and similar
changes may follow in various other
lines Of trade. This advice was given
after a company OF wholesale grocers
had made a complaint against company
which manufactures brsa kfast foods.
The manufacturing company had been
selling ~ breakfast foods 20 wholesalers
under contract which specified the
minimu price at which sales were to be
made I'd retailers. and the lstter were in
turn hodnd by contract not to sell 10 the
public below aicertain price. When whole
ssler cut the prices he was fined $50 for
each sale. and repetition Of the offence
led TO q refusal OF further supplies by the
manufacturer.
After the complaint was made the
manufacturers held a conference with
Mr.. Wise and he advised that the oon-
tract was in restraint OF trade. The
company 10 now canceiiing all its con-
tracts with wholesalers. Other manufac-
COtuE8ule8 tne BfOCSfy trace
which have been carrying ON business
under similar contracts are not waiting
for complaints to be made but are can
ceiling their contracts Of the kind.
All the companies which are cancelling
the old contracts are also sending TO the
wholesalers and retailers letters contain
ing assurances that the change in the
selling methods will be 30 carried out as
TO prevent price cutting, which was the
principal object OF the contracts. Under
the new procedure manufacturers still
will refuse to sell to wholesalers who
TO do 90.
The wholesalers are expected TO main
tain prices just "a firmly as IL they were
under contract to do 90. The principal
difference seems to be that the conditions
are no longer expressed in written

fused by the breakfast food company are

claim that because they buy In lar re
quantities they arc entitled to advantage
over smailer jobbers. The manufActur-
ers OF grocery specialties say that II the
big buyer can cut prices he will eliminate
the small dealers and will destroy many
lines Of bnsiness built up by extensive
advertising of articles now sold at uniform
prices in the retail stores.
As minimum price contracts are In
