wasn't particular what people called

Mr. Bryan with which he is not in hearty

audience staid with him. His address
vas frequently punctuated with applause,
Chairman Norton Montgomery. who
presided, wittily presented Captain
Nichols as Democrat who was voting
for Andrew Jackson yet. Captain
Nichols proved to be trump card. His
speech was uniqu. and pointed and
scathing attack on Republican policies,
including the tariff. He held up to scorn
the western farmer who shouts for pro-
lection to the eastern manufacturer and
votes the Republican ticket. Many of
Captain Nichols sentences were happily
turned epigrams.
Captain L. P. McGwire was not on the
program, but member proposed song
from him and he responded 50 that the
hall rang with applause and the captain
was compelled to acknowledge an en-

Every business man, cattle man
and farmer should use printed
stationery. Nicely printed letter
heads are good advertisement
of your business, besides they
show that you are conversant with
up-to date business principles.
Your return card on your envel-
opes insures the prompt return
of your letters to you should they
fail to reach the person to whom
they are addressed. The cost of
printed stationery is compara-
lively small, when the advantage
is considered. We are prepared

upon short notice. Let us have

Most people show peculiar
characteristic at an auction sale.
At such sale they will pay more
for an article than they would
have to pay for the same article
in a retail store. And this, too,
when the article is second hand.
A good example of this propen-
sity in people was shown at the
John Adams sale last week. Ev-
erything sold at high price. es-
pecially set of harness which
brought $500. The same har-
ness can be bought new for $1,000
The only explanation Of this is
in the exceptional ability of +. D.
Hamilton as an auctioneer. 1t is
said that good auctioneer can
make man bid against himself
and it is quite possible that Mr.
Hamilton accomplished this feat
at the Adams sale.

The Foreign Mission Question.


To those of us who believe that
the large sums Of money, which
are yearly collected by the num-
erous churches throughout the
country, and which are expended
IN sending missionaries to for
eign countries for the purpose of
teaching the inhabitants a relig-
ious belief they do not want,
might be more proftably spent in
teaching the home citizens some
of the fundamental theories of
correct living, the following in
tervlew with the Chinese minister
at Washington may be of interest
as al argument in favor of our
position. Mr.. WI said:
''No doubt they feel that they
are acting from high motives, and
in the case of medical missionar,
les and those who give themselves
to the work of translations they
may be doing some good. but it
seems to me they would find
more productive field if they
would go to barbarous nations.
who, seeing that these mission
aries had something which they
had not, would gladly receive
their teachings and become con-
verts to their faith. But we have
a civilization of our own. For
5000 years our religion has sat
istied us. 1t teaches us that man
is good and that his natural course
is along the path of virtue, striv-
ing against evil influences. He
advances in purity until virtue
becomes habit. The object Of a
ruler in China is to keep in state
of sympathy with this idea, to
furnish an example to his people,
and to promote to places of honor
men Of virtuous lives, and by the
adherence to law and order cult
vate the nature which is a heav-
en-sent gift to every man. l
think that our system has a good
deal to say for itself. At least
thus far it has answered WE'LL"

HESITATION IN
 STOCK MARKET There Were a Few Sporadic
 Cases of Strength. THE GAINS SOON WIPED OUT The Character of the Market Has Not Changed from Its Strictly Pro- fessional Lines-Prices Rais-
 ed Another Notch
THE GAINS SOON WIPED OUT

New York, July 21.-There were few spasmotic cases of strength in the stock market today, but none of the gains held at the highest and some of them were more than wiped out In the railroad list South ern Pacific and St. Paul were the only stock to make any special show Of strength. Among the specialities Leather, the New York Fractions and Tennessee Coal were the features. Sugar was lifted two points at the opening but 1t was very obviously for the purpose of affecting a market upon which to realize profits. The stock closed three points below the high level and dom mated the whole market. As the London Exchange was not in session today ana had adjourned yesterday before the receipt at Washington of MT. Conger'S message, the effect of that news upon the Enghsh market is still somewhat problemat1cal.
 Prices of stocks have been raised another notch as a result of the week s trading But the character of the market has not materially changed from it's strictly pro- fessional lines Operations by speculative pools have had some temporary effect In moving prices of special stocks or individ- ual causes have effected others. There has been some slight sympathetic responses Tn tho general list But this has been mani fested in maintaining prices at any new level and the persistent tendency mas been to return to a fixed level. To obtain an adequate idea of the extreme lethargy of the market it is necessary to go back three or four weeks. In many stocks present prices vary only a fraction from those at the end of June. Some of them have been higher and some have been lower in the meantime, but it is obvious that the mar ket is near to condition of stable equilib- rum. The notable movements of the week have been mostly in the specialties and have been helped by the forced covering of short contracts.
 The bond market failed to show any pres sure of capital seeking investment. The funds disbursed on July 1 are apparently held in accessible form pending develop ment in the money market.
