MAKE MEAT BARONS EXPLAIN.

According to J. Ogden Armour, meat
government has carried on a most I'M
successful prosecution as one of the
heads of the Beef Trust, there is some
chance for a slight fall in meat prices
before the year ends. He declares that
if the country produces bountiful crops
of wheat, corn and oats this year there
will be an abundant supply of cattle
and prices should come down. If on the
other hand, the grain crops run short
the cattle supply will follow suit and
prices will remain as they are or go
even higher. All this is not very COM
fOrting to man who knows he is pay
ing nearly two prices for every pound
of meat he buys.
The chances now are that the crops
will be at least fairly good and possibly
abundant, but the people are convinced
that the beef barons will not allow any
thing to interfere with their determine
tionato keep up prices. They cannot
make the people believe that there is
any shortage in the cattle supply, I'M
less it be of their own making. Mr.
Armour himself by his own words adds
strength to his conviction when he says:
The meat export business from the
United: to Europe is dead. South
America is furnishing the meat that
Europe consumes. The United States
cannot compete to advantage with the
country south of the Equator Cattle
conditions there are as they were in the
West twenty-five years ago. Cattle
can be raised cheaper, and, as ship
transportation costs but little, if any,
more than from the United States,
they can be marketed at m CHI cheap
er price. AS a cattle producer South
America is rapidly outdistancihg- the
United States. The broad plains of
the former country are undeveloped.
Especially in Argentina the facilities
are much better. The class of cattle is
not as.good, but the meat is good, and
that is what Europe wants.
If these be facts, if Europe wants nc
more meat from the United States, it
stands to reason there should be a
greaterisupply for home consumption.
The government should compel the
beef barons to explain this and force
them to discontinue the highway rob.
berry that they have practiced on the
public for over year past.

WOMEN AND NEWSPAPERS.

Did YOU ever watch a woman read a
newspaper? If not, try it today. OBJ
sarvati0n will show that to womankind
the news Of the retail stores as seen in
the advertising makes an intimate per
sonal appeal because it is closely re
lated to home interests. Women look
with avidity to see who is cutting
prices, who has the most fetching
styles, who has some novel offering.
They weigh every word the merchant
has to say to them.
Retail advertising is to the home
keeper what the crop news is to the
farmer, what the wholesale market
reports are to the grocer. Women
naturally feel this alert interest in the
advertising because it is full of in
formation essential to their efforts to
make family incomes accomplish the
largest results. Merchants who fail to
cooperate with this effort by an ade-
quate public statement of prices and
values, are simply ignored in the appor-
tionment of domestic expense.
When a politicians name is rarely
seen in the newspapers, the voters as
sumo that he is out of the game. When
a merchants name rarely appears in
the advertising, the women assume he
is lost in the shuttle No business en-
terprise can afford to ignore the women.

MORE DlSGRACEFUL THAN THE
PRIZE FIGHT.

If there is anything which ought to
make the American people feel more
ashamed than that brutal prize fight
like that of Monday with all it's disgust
ing and demoralizing surroundings
could have been held in this country, it
is the hideous outbreak of race hatred
that followed because a negro won
When the white man and the negro
agreed to fight racial lines were elimi-
mated. The negro fought fairly and
won fairly. He whipped Jeffries be-
cause he was the better man. He
struck no blows below the belt. He
carried himself decently in his hour of
victory. Yet, because he showed more
strength and skill and courage than his
antagonist, when the news of the fight
was received white men hunted and
beat and killed negroes as if they were
wild beasts.
Dispatches tell US that in a dozen
cities riots were imminent. In New
York unoffending black men were
dragged from cars and brutally as
saulted. Men and bows formed them
selves into mobs to chase them. The
shame of it is unspeakable. II violated
every instinct of decency and humanity.
1t disregarded every law of sportsman
ship. 1t put a stigma on the whole
country. When a white man fights a
negro and loses, at least the lower race
might be shown that their superiors
know how TO accent defeat.

WHAT IT MEANS.

The recent election in South Car
DINA has attracted a great deal of
attention, and been the subject of
much comment everywhere. The re-
suit does not mean that the way has
been opened for the revival of bar
rooms. The local option that was an
issue there means county option as
between prohibition and county dis
pensaries The first primary nomi-
mated a majority of members of the
legislature favorable to local option,
and the second primary cinched the
verdict by the nomination of the can
didate for governor who advocated
that plan for the control of the
liquor business. Under the local
option scheme dry counties will con-
tinue dry as long as they please,
while wet counties may have their
wetness under restrictions.
