PRODUCE.

CHICAGO, July 1S.-Little specula-
tive interest was displayed in the Board
of Trade markets to-day outside of the
provision pit. Wheat declined 1sc,
corn NC, oats lost shade. Provisions
advanced 10015c, the latter on pork.
Wheat opened weak at 71@711sc for
September, which was ss@1ac under
yesterdays close. Fine weather every
where, lower cables and the receipts
of S02 cars at Minneapolis and Duluth
compared with 657 cars last week and 90
year ago, were the chief influences at
work in the market. With such enor-
nous receipts and the sluggish
for cash property the bulls could see
no encouragement for rally in the
immediate future and long wheat was
thrown on the market in great quanti-
ties. September touched 707sc imnedi-
ately after the opening. This was put
price and buying against those prlyl-
legeS absorbed the bulk Of offerings.
Shorts covered freely on the decline and
the market gradually rallied to 71ssc.
On the bulge the demand slackened
again and September reacted to lie.
Then the holders of puts made second
turn and this time it held until the
close, which was at liz @71ssc, net
loss of only &c. Primary receipts to-
day were 100000 bushels compared
with 1000 bushels the corresponding
day of last year. Local receipts were
142 cars, % of contract gIale.
Corn ruled weak on heavy liGuida-
ton. Leading local professionals who
have supported the market steadily for
the past three months gave up in de-
spair and threw their lines overheard.
Local receipts of % cars together with
extremely glowing accounts OF the new
crop, which was reported to be favored
with perfect weather throughout the
corn belt, combined to bring about the
downfall of the bulls. September open
ed s@Ac lower at 32%4 @327sc, sold
during the greater part of the session
at 3258 M32ac and closed at 3434c, a net
loss Of Nc.
Oats ruled dull. but remarkably
steady. There was little or no routine
news outside OF moderate cash demand.
Provisions showed remarkable
strength throughout in spite of the
weakness in the grain markets. Con-
tinued cash demand for both domestic
and export purposes stimulated outside
speculative buying. Added to this was
an advance of 10015c for hogs at the
yards. There was slight recession
early on profit taking, but packers
bought freely on the decline and caused
a rally which was still in progress at
the close. September pork closed at
$3.50, net gain of 15c; September ribs
and September lard gained Zoe each,
closing at $5271a and $5.5712 respec-
lively.
Estimated receipts tomorrow: Wheat
So cars; corn, $50 cars; oats, 165 cars;
hogs, $4,000 head.

METAL.

NEW YORK, July 1S.-Metals-The
feature of the day in metals was easily
a sharp reaction in tin, primarily due
to a change in the tenor Of news from
western markets and abroad. With
the unfavorable reports came a re-
lapse in demand for consumers. Spelt-
er also took an easier turn. Copper
on the other hand held strong at full
rates. At the close the Metal Elk
change called pig iron warrants nom
inal at $13 rs; lake copper firm at

That's Correct.

The effort of a.y newspaper to
build up town is practically null
lifted unless it is backed up by the
business men. A stranger turns
from the news columns of It paper
to the advertising pages and if he
fails to find there the business
cards of the merchants and pro-
fessional firms, he comes to the
conclusion that the town is a dead
head town and no good. No town
ever grew without the active aid of
the newspaper. Nor can papers
grow and build up their localities
without the active assistance of the
town. Business men should real
ize this and remember in giving
support to the newspapers they
are not only building up their own
business, but helping to support
that which is steadily working for
the benefit of the whole communi.

THE FAIR.

We are very glad to see that the
Horticultural and Agricultural
fair proposition is taking a deep
and firm hold on the minds OF our
business men and ranchers and we
hope there will be no letup in the
matter until the fondest expecta-
tons of our whole people is con-
sumated. Our merchants seem to
take hold of it with vim and say
they will do all in their power to
make it a success. They would
like to donate hundreds Of dollars
in the way OF premiums, but a.
they are struggling along the same
as the farmers, it cannot be eXpec-
ed of them, however, they say they
will donate literally. And as an
evidence of the truth Of their as
sertions, it is only necessary to ask:
"How many of our merchants have
got rich in the past ten years.
Not one! On the other hand, nc
less than twenty failures have oc-
Cured in that length of time. The
farmers, many of them, also went
down in the great wreck, but as
they are all business men and
ranchers-possibly seeing better
days, they can well afford to get
together and hold three or four
days fair. Lets all pull together
and make it success from start to
finish.

THE insinuation that the Popu.

THE insinuation that the Popu-
list press that was and is seeking a
union of all the reform forces,
should not get too fast, that they
should not use too strong language
if they really want union, comes
with very poor grace from a Demo-
cratic press. We have failed to
see in any of our Democratic ex-
changes anything that so lar could
be construed to mean that the
Democratic party wants union
of any kind. They are eternally
talking about the Peoples party
being dead; that it was mush-
room growth and had filled is
mission on earth, and wind up
by telling what the Democratic
party intends doing. If some Of
our Democratic editors would talk
through their papers as they talk
on the streets, the people would
know where to find them, but as it
is, no one can can tell anything
about them. The DAWN is as
anxious as any paper to see the
right thing done and all parties
get justice, but it will not stand by
and see the old time workers in
the reform ranks kicked and cuffed
about numerically and shamefully
abused without entering a protest.
If the Democratic press would de-
vote more space in trying to unity
all the reform forces on a just and
equitable basis under one name
into new party, instead Of eter-
nally bowling and whooping it up
for the Democratic party alone, it
would be rendering the country a
better service.
