An Unreasonable Public.

When an excited public gets through
asking questions concerning the high
price of meat it may take time to learn
the true cause instead of wasting effort
looking for an answer where il is not
to be found, says Chicago Retailers
Journal.
This public might be told now that
the high price of meat follows naturally
in the wake Of the law Of supply and
demand, Meat is scarce. 1t has been
growing scarce for a number of years,
and it will be scarcer and higher a few
years hence than it is today. There
may be ups and downs in the market,
but the tendency will be toward a gem
eral higher level. There is no conspiracy
Of packers putting up prices beyond a
reasonable price. If the packers were
making the profits they are supposed to
make, the little fellow could build a
cheap slaughter house almost anywhere
in the cattle countries and get rich
supplying the home market. The pack
ers profits today come out Of the by.
products of the slaughter house and the
economy of management. The small
butcher is compelled to throw away
things that furnish the big packers their
small margin OF pront.
It is all matter Of cost on the hoof
Land is high, grain is high, hay is high,
farm help is high. All this is reflected
in the price Of meat on the hoof.
As for the retail butcher, he cannot
sell as much meat as he formerly did,
because the high price has lessened con-
sumption. People are eating less meat
and the retail butcher s business suffers
Yet the retail butcher comes in for
his share Of abuse from a public labor
ing under such strain Of excitement
that the true state Of affairs are not
appreciated.
The retail butcher has no remedy. He
must stand up under abuse and be salts.
fed with modest living as the product
of his hard labor.
But things will change. The public
will eventually see the light and pay
for what meat it uses without complain.

THE CONVENTION
 HAS ADJOURNED SELECT NEW COMMITTEE
R. F. MILWEE CHAIRMAN AND BRUCE T. BULLION SEC
 RETARY.

Little Rock, June 9-The state Democratic convention which met here this week closed yesterday afternoon after one of the most harmonious ses- sions ever held in this state. At no time was there any bitterness and throughout the sessions the best of feeling was manifest.
 With the selection of R. F. Mil wee of Monroe county and Bruce T. Bullion of Faulkner county, chairman and secretary for another term, the convention adjourned.
 The new committee is as follows First, F. R. Andrews; second, l.. C. Going; third, Sam Deener, fourth, J H. McIlroy; fifth, E. E. Mitchell; sixth, W. G. Hutton; seventh, H. B. Means; eighth, J H. Head; ninth, A. D. Dulaney; tenth, Garland Street; eleventh, Jack Barnhardt; twelfth W. J. Johnson; thirteenth, T. R. Vinson; fourteenth, Rastus Bratton fifteenth, K. P Allen; sixteenth, F. NJ. Hanley; seventeenth, A. J. Walls.
 Congressional Distrcts-First, L. Barton; second, Lehman Kay; third, Ben McFerrin, fourth, o. T. Wingo; fifth, G. o. Patterson; sixth, Edgar Brewster, and seventh, John H. Greene.
 The election of Milwee and Bullion was by exclamation, there being no opposition to their election from any source.
 The platform as outlined in these columns heretofore, was adopted. One feature which attracted considerable attention was the declaration against the removal of the state university from Fayetteville. Another was the favoring of the appointment of a state penitentiary board by the governor in order to remove this institution from politics.
 Still another is that which favors a direct tax for the maintenance of the state charitable institutions.
 The temperance matter was cover ed by section which sends the matter to the state legislature to take such action as it may deem necessary This was brought to the attention of the convention by a resolution by Col. George Thornburg, president of the Anti-Saloon League.
 The delegates left for their homes last night well pleased with the re- suit of the convention.
 Late yesterday afternoon an effort was made to reopen the CarlLee- Smith senatorial contest. CarlLee took the stage and declared that he was willing for the matter to go to Cross county to be fought out in an other primary. This suited Smith al so and the resolution to reopen the matter and settle it was withdrawn

Again in the eighth Paulet knocked another home-run and scored 2 runner, giving the visitors lead of one over Conway. However, in the ninth, Conway secured two runs, which won for the locals.
