WILL MEAT BE CHEAPER?

Many meat dealers in the state are
recorded. as saying that they have a
good deal of faith in the recent pre-
diction of one of the greatest Ameri,
can packers that the prices of meat
would be lower this winter, but they
are also credited with saying that
their faith would be stronger Should
the prediction be carried out in works
The fall of prices for both meat on
the hoof and meat in storage is re-
garded by many as a surprise, but
others say that the pediction will be
fulfilled.
The reason for ;Ais decline is said
to be that the market for the last
year has been overstocked. and that
the amounts of meat in storage are
SO large that even if the shippers
hold out their live stock, the lower
prices are sure to come. Shippers
who have been holding their live
stock while the prices were climbing.
hoping for a larger profit this win
ter, will be disappointed, and some
newspapers say that even if they fall
back in their old trick of holding
out, the market still will be we'll
stocked.
This, of course, is well received by
all consumers. Lower prices mean q
larger supply and more money with
which to buy. 1t is one form of
prosperity, so much better than when
prices grow and grow until a panic
heads them off. Shippers and live
stock producers, of course, are in
jured, because they have to sell
while the values are falling.
Some of this loss to the producers
is not begrudged by many. While
this sort of speculation has existed
SO long that is nearly justified, yet
the producers in the meat line have
been extraordinarily exorbitant of |
late. The decline in meat prices of |
live stock has begun already in some
parts of the country, much to the |
disgust and dismay, it is said, of the
producers. They had hoped and fig
ured that the high summer prices
would prevail this winter, and the
prediction and the partial fulfiIlmem
oil lower prices has put them to
loss.
Let us hope that the prediction will
be fulfilled.

One of the most deplorable features
OF Tuesdays elections so far as Mis-
souri, is concerned is the defeat of the
amendments to the state constitution.
It seems that in accordance with the
invariable policy of the American
voter when he wants thing. or vice
versa, the electorate of Missouri was
so bent on defeating the prohibition
amendment that it went the whole
hog and voted against all the amend
ments, regardless OF their merits re-
spectively, in order to make sure of its
main purpose.
The average American citizen, as
rule. is distrustful of things written
anyhow; he is never sure that some
cunning hand has not concealed a Sen
egambian in the woodpile, and he
knows that the one sure way out is to.
vote against whatever he does not
thoroughly comprehend. For instance
the adoption Of the amendment provid.
ing a permanent endowment for the
state university was not only some
thing to be desired by every intelli-
gent and public-spirited citizen, but it's
features were SO patent
tnat under ordinary circumstances it
would have been overwhelmingly in
dorsed. Yet, like many other good
things. its was damned by the COM
pany it kept and went down in over

GUARD AGAINST
HOLIDAY FIRES

There Is an old saying that an
ounce of prevention is worth pound
of cure. Caution Is especially adyis-
able at this season OF the year in
guarding against holiday fires. This
is the time of all times when serious
conilagTations are apt to occur in
shops and stores.
According to annual custom as the
Christmas season is at hand, the city
fire department Is advising the large
stores, where special combustible
lines are displayed, to be very careful
TO guard against fires Fire Chief
Canfield gives the following advice to
business men of Ogden;
I'VE are taking the liberty at this
time of the year to call your atten-
tion TO the fact that the installation
of electric wires and lights in the vi
cinity of inflammable decorations as
eXemplified III show windows. dis
plays and other decorative features,
has been the cause OF innumcrable
fires of more or less serious conse-
quenCeS
These fires almost invariably arise
from the practice Of allowing en-
ployes not conversant with the cleo
trio hazard TO install wires and appa-
ratus in show windows, or the placing
OF inflammable material In contact
with lamp sockets and conductors.
The entrustIng Of important work
OF this nature TO those who are not
familiar with the necessary safe
guards to be employed Is liable TO re,
suit disastrously.
