Beef is Beef.
A bunch of twenty-five steers sold in
the South Omahn market yesterday for
$9.20 per 100 pounds. Is it any wonder
that when you step into a meat market

the weight of your silver dollar lor tho
same weight of beef. This especially
true when tho North Platte dealers aro
shipping in tho greater part of their
beef from Omaha because they cannot
secure fat cattle in this section.

Convention Opens at Noon.
The republican national convention
at Chicago was announced to open at
noon today, but whether the opposing
forces, which have reached tho nghing
stage, permitted the convention
to open and proceed with its
business has not nt this time been
learned. Speaking yesterday for the
Roosevelt forces, Governor Hndloy, of
Missouri, who was chosen floor leader
for the Colonel, declared that no con
tested delegate seated by act of repub
lican national committee should set in
the convention. This attempted action
will of course, precipitate a bitter
fight.
