SIOUX CITY NOT AFFECTED.
Time For Appeal in Saloon Petition
Ruling Has Expired.

Sioux City, Nov. 25-Sioux City sa-
loon interests are not worried over the
decision Of the supreme court, which
Saturday resulted in the closing OF all
saloons in Des Moines. Contrary to
press dispatches emana1ing from the
capital city, they aver that the ruling
OF the high court in reversing the de-
cision of the district court was not
based or the Fort Dccge case, in which
1t had been decided that petition OF
consent was legal if based on the vote
Of a city election.
Local liquor dealers, however, rest
their confidence on entirely different
foundation. They point out that the
date for appealing from the action Of
the board Of supervisors in granting
requires that appeals Of this character
must be filed within thirty days of the
action Of the supervisors. This was
done in the cases at Des Moines and
at Fort Dodge. in which decisions have
just been rendered
Officials Of the Woodbury. County
Anti-Saloon League realized that this
time limit has expired, and it is not
likely that any action will be started
against the Sioux City petition in the
district court. John F. Joseph, attor-
ney for the league, said that he had not
learned of the different phases of the
Des Moines case, and it. under the
supreme court ruling. anything can be
done here. the league will take ad-
vantage Of it

Nc Relief in Sight For Beef Eaters,
TChicaeo Drovers' Journal.l

Consumers OF beef, at least those
who always demand the choice portion,
are not likely to get any relief from
high prices By reason Of importation OF
cattle from Argentina or other coun-
tries. according to Joseph p. Mcguire
sales manager for Armour & Co.. at
Kansas City. Mr.. Mcguire gave his
views Of the question before a meeting
Of hotel men at Excelsior Springs, Mo.
Mcguire contends the liking of the
American. particularly the cafe diner.
for prime steaks, thin bacon and other
choice parts, create demand for these
with which the demand for other parts
does not keep pace. The result, ne
states, is that the consumer of the
choice bits must pay for the loss upon
the other parts, which must be dis
posed of by the packer at disadvan-
tage or actual loss. Government In
spection, too, while necessary, cuts
down the packers average profit per
carcass enormously. Mr.. Mcguire also
believes that the prosperity OF the
stock raiser is pretty good indica ton
that the packer isn't getting all the
profits out of beef.
The packers have the only just
cause Of complaint" said Mr.. Mcguire.
They have Millions and millions OF
dollars invested in lands. and buildings.
and equipment, the capacity thereof
representing those years when the
largest number Of animals could be had
for slaughter. And now, seeing there
is a big shrinkage. what does 1t sug-
gest to your mind? Vacant buildings
and rusting machinery, and fixed ex-

country for every man, woman and
child in 1910, while now there are only
about 100000 for CUR 90.000000 in
habitants. a shrinkage of about go per
cent. but, as I observed before. we
have got a better grade of beef now
and the average weight per head is
greater.
Rest assured that the packers Will
do all they can to keep up splendid
and generous meat supply at most
reasonable cost, but it doesn't look as
tho importations were going to prove
cure, as beef from Argentina, after
being en- route forty-three days, sold in
New York City for higher average
price than we get for that distribution
in local territory. OF course, II the price
doesn't fall, the packers will be criti-
cized by the consumer, and II 1t should
drop too low the farmer will shout
anathema."
