Mainly for the guidance Of organ
lied and unorganized labor we quote
from the Labor News, Of Quincy,
the following article on William j.
Bryan rs the friend Of labor. The
article is not dogmatic. 1t gives
sound reasons for its advice. and
bears the impress Of genuine earnest
ness. Here it is:
1.-THE Labor News is for W. j.
Bryan for president OF the United
States, not because he is q democrat
or populist, or because he is not q
republican, but because he is young.
Intelligent. aggressive, fearless and
honest. He is one Of the people. and
no part OF the plutocracy that threat
ems the disruption Of the nation.
His talents and opportunities would
have enabled him to become wealthy
and power in corporations which
Cypress TIE people. But his heart is
right; it has always prompted him
to champion the downtrodden, and
he has ever followed its dictates.
lie believes in government. Of the
people. by the people. not in the rule
Of the masses by the money classes.
He is in every way fitted to fill the
high office for which he has been
nominated, and il he 10 elected We
believe he will make the best presi-
don't the country has had since Lin
coin. Ii is more than n duty, it is 8
pleasure to assist in electing such a
man, and from now until election
day the Labor News will do its level
best to convince workingmen tina,
they ought to vote for W. ]. Bryan
for president.
aside from the ethics Of the mat
ter. there arc practical reasons why
men who work for wages should sup
port Bryan. FRS: among them i,
the fact tina; he has always been the
friend Of the workingmsn. He be.
licvos in the toiler's golden rule tina,
'ths laborer is worthy Of his hire;
and he has sacrificed his time. talent.
and his opportunities for persona

OrnE Quincy Herald says: "The

the Soldiers Home. The national
government pays the state s25 a

last quarter the per capita for main

CHICAGO CHANGE.

Chicago H., Oct 30.-There was no cause for dissatisfaction to the bears in the action of wheat today Although the opening was lower the tone even then was firm, and 1t took but moment to recover the loss, and holders had clear sailing from that time until the close. Sharp reactions took place, but they are the result of realizing and not by any means due to a wavering in the bull sentiment. The trade was not broad, but 1t was effective in placing values on higher plane. The last five minutes of the session were very active, prices rising about 12c from a reaction of 1c. December wheat opened from 711s to 7113c, advanced to 73Rc, closing at 727s@73c, 11sc higher than yester- day. Cash wheat was 1l11ac higher
 Corn did not depart from it's usual slow course, dropping lower when wheat was easy and advancing cautiously at the stronger periods The business was void of interest. May corn opened from 2SA to 2Sc, advanced to 2S5sc, closing at 2S12c, AQ5sc higher than yesterday. Cash corn was AQ 1ac higher.
 The provision pit was without the sem blance of life or activity during most of the session. At best, the business was light and the theory that nothing important will take place until after election generally observed. January pork closed Dc higher than yester- day, January lard 2lsc lower, January ribs 5q7lac higher.

COTTON LETTER.

New York Oct SO.-(special.) .)-Disappoint- ing Liverpool advices and big port receipts depressed prices in the forenoon. January, after opening at S.01 declined to 7.96, but the market would not stay down. There were more buyers than sellers and January soon reacted to the opening prices. When the .n- terior receipts came in they showed sharp falling off as compared with last week, and prices showed further improvement, clos ing firm at S.06 for January.
 The market has very healthy look this evening, and tho chances are that barring a fresh deluge of receipts prices will be higher.

GENERAL COTTON MARKETS.
SUNS COTTON REVIEW.

New York, Oct. 30.-The Suns cotton re- view says: Spot cotton here was unchanged. Liverpool were unchanged on the spots. Futures there opened at partial advance steady at net decline of 2 to 21b points. The exports from the ports approximated 10000 bales. The port receipts were 60 2So bales, including ''various." The total in- terior receipts for the week were 176,76i bales. Futures here declined to points, but recovered this and closed firm at a net bales
 The speculation today was a small local affair, and at the close prices showed no im- portant changes as compared with last nights figures. The Liverpool news was disappointing and at the opening prices de- clined slightly. But the interior movement for the week showed a material falling off at most points, while the interior stocks also showed a decrease and on small local demand prices rallied and advanced slightly, closing at the top figures of the day.
