The New Journalism

The new journalism is in trouble all
around. Two or three of its professors
are in Jail, or on the way there, for send
ing indecent matter through the mails.
Several of it's most conspicuous exam
pies have been excluded from public IL
braries as unfit for general reading.
These papers have always been exclud-
ed from the houses of refined and, cul-
tured men. 1t is fact of common knowl-
edge that the New Workers one meets
in decent society know no more OF the
Journal than they do of Little
Egypt" and that Californians travelling
with credentials that admit them to the
company of gentlemen make haste to
declare that they neither subscribe for
nor read the Examiner" This senti-
ment is spreading so fast that many
persons who see nothing Objectionable
in these papers themselves are begin
ming to drop them out of Difference to the
Judgment Of their betters-for business
reasons, II for no higher motive.
Public sentiment moves even more
slowly than federal law, but the very
acceleration of the law proves that pub
lie opinion is awaking from its lethargy.
This will not only arouse the federal
courts to more vigorous action, but 1t
will act directly upon the newspapers
themselves, through limiting their sub
scription and advertising patronage. In
the long run, the only way to suppress
indecency is to starve 1t out The two

THE HUNTINGTON CLIQUE
Expect to Repeat Their Performance
This Year

The San Francisco Examiner, in dis
cussing the affairs of the Southern Pa
cific railway and the visit of c. p. Hunt
ington, says: Arrangements for the
annual meeting are to be completed this
week, and as far as can be ascertained
the old board of directors, consisting of
c. p. Huntington, j. C. Stubs, N. L.
Smith, C. F. Crocker, w. H. Crocker, T.
H. Hubbard. T. E. Stillman, Charles G.
Lathrop and Russell ]. Wilson, will be
reelected.
The place mad3 vacant by the death
of A. L. Tubbs will be filled by the Sc
lection of some San Francisco merchant.
The scheme of having some local mer-
chant as the eleventh directoS is based
on the supposition that it will assist in
popularizing the monopoly. In other
words, Uncle" is goir- to try to curry
favor with the merchants once again.
Tubbs' successor has not yet been Sc
lected from the half dozen names now
under consideration.
1t goes without saying that Hunting
ton wants to be reelected president, and
that he will have his desire granted II.
F. Huntington, T. z. Stillman, 7. H..
Hubbard, J. c. Stubbs, N. T. Smith and
C. F. Crocker will vote for him. Those
who are we'll informed in regard to the
situation will have nothing to say about
w. H. Crocker's vote. He refused last
year to vote, and in that way negatively
opposed the New York magnate. Mrs.
Stanford's two directors, Charles G..
Lathrop and Russell j. Wilson, voted
last year for General T. H. Hubbard
under her instructions The Hunting
ton clique expect that they will repeat
their performance this year. The new
director to succeed Tubbs will, of course,
vote with the Huntingtons.

MARKET REVIEW.
Late Reports direct from the Chi
cago Board of Trade.

Chicago, Nov. both the grain
and stock markets are in most
healthy condition, and at the begin
ming of the winter months the farmer
finds himself in a better position thasl
he has occupied for years.
Primarily his prosperity comes
from the high prices that have OBJ
tanned for farm products during the
last two months. In that time wheat
has sold above dollar bushel, and
has been below 80 cents for day or
SO only, the price at present being
about &c. This excellent price is
caused solely by the actual demand
in other countries for our principal
cereal, and this feature of the situa-
ton has been an agreeable surprise
to those who feared that the quick
rise in the price of wheat from Csc to
ST. would be ephemeral, that the
European demand was mere temper
airy affair, and that the shortage here
and elsewhere had been overestimated.

cally the first to point out the true

eign connections are so extensive
that information came to it from every
European country concerning the
shortage. The reports sent out
months ago predicting a continued
wheat demand from abroad have been
verified, and today wheat is selling
close to a dollar a bushel, solely on
its intrinsic value. That it will con-
tinue on a generously high plane for
months to come is not doubted by
those who are aware that the acreage
sown to winter wheat this year, is, by
reason of the drouth, very much less
than for several seasons past. Until
definite information that a good crop
of winter wheat is assured has come
there can be no valid reasons for any
material recession of the price.
Oats have commanded better prices
during the last week than for some
time, it being argued that the high
price of wheat will cause them to
come into more extensive use for food
than ever before. Corn is not being
marketed by farmers at present prices,
but such a visible supply it will be
hard for the market to raise just now.
Later on it can easily happen that
prices may seem too low.
