THIRD EDITION
OUR ANNIVERSARY.
The "Heraidp Close to Its Twenty nth
Mile stone,

The "Herald" Close to Its Twenty nth
Mile stone,
Twenty-four years ago to-day the einitial
number of the HERALD was issued in the
building now occupied by DR.. J. S.
KisJler, on North Jardin street. Prior to
the launching of the enterprise no paper
had been published in the town. 1t was
the pioneer publication in the place.
There was a demand for such paper and
the project found favor with the public,
yet it was not established without hard
labor and great patience and persever-
ance. Perhaps no better statement of
the purposes and policy of the HERALD
can be given than the editorial remarks
of the founders in their first issue-"Our
object being to publish a family paper
devoted especially to local interests"
Almost at the outset the HERALD ac
quired appreciable influence. For years
It continued to WELD an influence that
spoke eloquently of its management and
its progress up to the present time is well
known to our readers and contemporaries
To paraphrase from the past: We com
mence another volume of the HERALD in
the greatest good humor with every one
and trust we may uever-in the future
do aught to mar the cordiaility which sc
greatly distinguishes our patrons.

ALONE HIGHER
STEADY TONE AT III OPENING, BUT
TRADING WAS NOT HEAVY.
Scarcely Any Activity i'm Chicago
Corn, Oats and PrOvi-
sions All Being Depressed.

CHICAGO, Oct. 13.-Wheat was very dull
to-day, keeping within &c range. Aided by
better ~clearances and steady cables the
market was steady. December closing sc
higher. May corn closed &c lower, May oats
1sc lower and provisions lower all round.
The wheat market opened with a slightly
improved tone, but with very little in
creased activity. The ~clearances for the
week were heavier than the daily clear
ances from the Atlantic ports had seemed
TO indicate. Another reason for returning
confidence was found in the steady feeling
reported from England and the continent,
and the growing necessity which Eastern
millers appear to be experiencing of COM
ing to Western commercial wheat entire
pots for red winter wheat. Some little
strength impaired to the market by a pri-
vate cablegram from Antwerp reporting an
unfavorable outlook for the Argentine crop,
was lost, owing to the apparent Indifference
to such news Of the market from which 1t
emanated.
Corn was easier, except for a few min
utes in the early part of the session. BUSH
ness was Of moderate volume. The demand
for lots for shipment was conspicuous by
it's absence and 1870 carloads, m as
Fridays receipts, were considered also a
beariSh item.
In oats, Carrington-Hanna bought quite
freely, but the general disposition was to
sell.
Provisions were weak because hog re-
ceipts were heavy and the expectation that
next weeks run would number 80, 600. Clos
ing prices were the lowest of the day and
zoe lower than at the close yesterday. Lard
is .12i2c and ribs .l5c lower.
