1t will be pleasing to those who are
not overly in lore with politics aud who
take but little or no pleasure in cam-
paigns to know that the chosen leaders
Of the two great parties, Mckinley and
Bryan, are personally above reproach
and are men Of unblemished characters.
There can therefore be nothing person
al in the campaign.
For once the occupation Of the calum-
uiator, vilifier and OF the abusive
tongue is gone. II one of either party
should attempt the old and vicious
methods Of abuse the public may be
forewarned 70 consider the source and
ascribe evil to him who evil writes and
speaks.
Some by nature delight to be mean
they prefer to draw with charcoal rath-
or than chalk-they love night rather
than day but in this year OF national
election they can hope to gain nothing
by attacking the good name and charac-
ter OF the great leaders. Blackened
and mud stained will be the hands of
him who may try it.

The University Troubles.

The State University troubles will
prove serious matter for the institu-
tion. The public should be given a
clear insight into them. AS matters
now stand it is not known whether the
dispatches given out by the regents are
to be believed or whether those report
ed by President Blanton be true. II
the statement OF the regents be true it
was right for them to remove the presi-
dent, and, on the other hand, II DR..
Blanton's reports be true the eeeuts
should be removed. The public should
have the facts.
The Governor cannot afford to let the
matter drag along. Parents will soon
be considering the institution 10 which
they will place their children in Sep
TENDER, and If these troubles be not
cleared up it is plain they will not
select our university. An institution
to be popular must be above suspicion.
TO keep down suspicion the facts must
be given to the public.
Already the damage to follow the up-
explained difficulties are being felt.
We understand the summer school for
teachers has been abandoned and if this
be true it will be great loss to the
profession. A quick investigation and
report Of facts may save the university
from serious damage during the next
scholastic term. Heroic treatment is
needed. II heads are to fall let them
fall but save the institution.

While in Johannesburg l saw a

turned from South Africa 1T was a
share certificate In one of the richest
gold mines OF the Eand. In the early
days an Englishman who worked ia
one OF the first mines opened took
his pay partly In cash, but chiefly ia

many years the mine yielded little,
and the company was unable 10 pay

marketable pieces OF paper. and left
the place for another part OF the coun-

share certificates, with some odds and
ends OF prints from papers sent to
them, IN papering the walls OF their
cabin, and they remained there as a
grim reminder OF the hollowness OF
mans expectations Things got
worse, and the miner and hts wife
were near starvation. when one day

hunted up the cabin and made an
Offer for the wallpaper The price he
mentioned vas so large as to excite
the miners curiosity, and on investi-
cation he found that he was large

NEW YORK, Nov. 9.-R. g. Dun &
Companys Weekly Review of Trade
tomorrow will say:
Iron markets are in an encouraging
condition. No violent speculation is
threatened, but in numerous instances
better demand has caused small ad-
vances. The most notable change thus
far is in pig iron, which is eagerly
sought at all markets. Large con-
tracts are being placed at % to so
cents above the bottom point recently
quoted. In partially manufactured
forms, such as bars, plates and beams,
Improvement is definite, while large
building operations will keep structu-
lal material moving freely More
ships are planned, and bridges require
quantities of material. Railroads are
buying most products freely. Orders
Tor export are numerous, and foreign
makers have been compelled to reduce
Tor steel rails.
Failures for the week were POI in
the United States against 157 last
year, and Is in Canada against % last
year.

Mining Stocks
PRODUCE.

CHICAGO, November 9.-Wheat was
fairly active and firm to-day under the
influence of a good shipping demand
and diminishing domestic receipts, De-
cember closing 3s01ac over yesterday.
Corn closed A@3sc higher and oats
1sc higher. Provisions showed little
change at the close.
Wheat formed a somewhat irregular
market early, steady Liverpool cables
and reports declaring damage claims
for Argentine had been exaggerated,
causing fluctuations both ways. De-
cember opened unchanged at 1873 to
73Ac and shortly afterward touched
73$s@3c. A drop to 1875 was follow
ed by a recovery and the gain in price
was gradually increased as the session
progressed. The falling off in receipts
helped, but the chief support came
from the shipping demand. Shorts
covered freely the last hour. Deem
Der advanced to 73A@Bc and closed
3s@1ac over yesterday at 1874. Cash
sales here were $4,000 bushels. New
York reported forty loads taken for
export. Seaboard clearanees in wheat
and flour were equal to 100000 bushels.
Primary receipts aggregated $4,000
bushels compared with 95S,000 last
year. Minneapolis and Duluth report
ed 473 cars against 491 last week and
500 year ago. Local receipts were rs
cars, none of contract grade.
Corn was fairly active. The mar
ket opened easier on the favorable and
liberal Argentine shipments, but later
on the receipts, 226 cars, small coun-
try offerings, an improved cash de-
mand and sympathy with wheat caused
a rally. December sold between 35h
@Ac and $3.50 and closed A0asc up
at $3.50. Contract corn is scarce and
there is believed to be a strong bull
interest at work
Oats were quiet but shared in the
prosperity of the other grain markets.
Trade showed a slight improvement
over recent days. December sold be-
tween 21b@221sc and closed &c high
er at &c.
Receipts were 1903 cars.
Speculative business in provisions
was the smallest of any day this month
and the tendency of prices was down
ward. The market opened firm on a
lighter run Of hogs than had been ex-
pected, but turned easy on a slack de-
mand. January pork sold between
s11 20 and $11 221s and closed 2kc
lower at 81 221a; January lard be-
tween S. 671a and Sc 65@6 671a. clos
ing a shade higher at Sc 65@6 671a and
January ribs between S. 9505 971h and
S. 50 with the close unchanged at SIS 95.
Estimated receipts tomorrow:
Wheat 145 cars; corn 325 cars. oats
50 cars; hogs $4,000 head.
