and more than half of it is paid
out in salaries and wages. No
other city in the world can equal
this showing. In other American
municipalities the expenditures are
large and the retnrns are not COM
lnensurate with the outgo; but
with the worst that the average
American city can do it cannot be-
ginto equa! the paee set by New
York.
In the meanwhile the average
taxpayer would like to get the
worth OF his money. At present
rates his. return is not over seven
ty-6ve cents on the dollar. The
other twenty-five cents represents
all sorts of things. including the
sudden accessions of local bosses to
great wealth.

Costs Millions in Both Countries

Great Britain has certain election
laws which restrict The candidate
and make him account for all his
expenditures; these were made
necessary by tine frightfnl eorrnp-
ton into which the suffrage OF
England had descended. but If any
sone ,imagiHes that they have cor
rectpd all the evils he is very much
mistaken.
The present writer was in Eng
land during the last general cleo
tion in that country and be went
into the local details of the cleo
ton machiaefy. He found that in
the small matters of politics. in the
getting of votes through influence,
anoney and other means, the Eng
1ish politician was several miles
ahead Of anything that have ~
America. I'm fact, some of the
candidates had beem nursing" their
constituencies for all the seven
wears since the former general cleo
fion in that country. There is 40
doubt that,ouf politicians do bride
and buy, but they do it on the mo-
ment. They do not generally have
to purchase years of seryitnde in
order to get the suffrage of "a day
In England the nursing" system
keeps the distribution OF wealth in
progress for years,
The writer put the following
question 10 the editor of one of the
leading newspapers of London:
How much do yon estimate this
election will cost the candidates
for Parliament9"
He made some. calculations on a
pad. and then replied; !,
"Curious, isn't it,. that it had
never struck me beforeP Why, |
find "a total here of two million
pounds"
Ten million dollars for less than
four weeks politics in an area that
could be safely placed in one. Of
our States makes 81 AMERICAN feel
rather spsii.
We'll. at any rate, we have bet
ter laws than you have, even 1t we
do spend the money"
Of course. in this country we
spend more than ten millions on a
Presidential election. When We
consider all the local expenses and
all the running of campaigns and
candidates the total must amount
to several times ten millions, but
we must remember that it spreads
over the finest empire in the world
and leads to the election OF the
greatest executive on earth.

BULLISH TONE of THE GOVERN
MENT CROP REPORT WAS PRIN-
CIPALLY RESPONSIBLE
GAIN WAS BUT A SHADE
Strength of the Market, However.
Was All That the Bull Element
Could Desire-COrn Fol-
lowed Wheat.

CHICAGO, April 11.-Wheat went up
today on the bullish government report
and the cold weather, and then went
down again under selling pressure from
longs, closing barely steady, May a shade
over yesterday. May corn closed 4s@i4c
lower, and May oats unchanged. May
| and May ribbs 15Ql712c depressed, owing
to liquidation and lower hogs.
The wheat market opened strong and
active under the influence of the gov
ernment report putting the condition at
S2.1 per cent, considerably lower than had
been expected, and the cold weather in
day at 6IA AG617sc. Shorts covered, and
an advance to 6S1sc was quickly accom-
plished. The crowd, however, was against
the market. Long stuff came out, and
the price was forced down slowly to
| 81 1sc. The close was barely, steady, May
"a shade over yesterday at 6714 @67Ssc, Ca
bles were not encouraging, and many on
the floor held that the .cold weather
would have little if any effect.
The cash demand was poor. Atlantic
| port elearanceS in wheat and -four were
| equal to $4,000 bu. Primary receipts were
| $4,000 bu, compared with $4,000 bu last
year Minneapolis and Duluth reported
80 cars, against 374 last week, and 588
a year ago. Receipts here were 81 cars,
none of contract grades
| The story of wheat might be written
| of corn. The opening was strong and
active, and the bulge met liquidation and
a poor cash demand. The wheat strength
l SiiAu Tic UdO Weather Al SeCIlOnS OF the
| corn-growing belt were the factors-early.
| May opened $sQ12c up at 40141401bc ad-
! vanced to 1850 40Mc, and then, under
| the selling pressure reacted to 39s4c,
| at which the market closed in a weak
| condition 1s0Ac under yesterday. The
! liquidation of May caused the spread be-
! tween that option and May to widen to
| 1sc. Receipts here were 80 cars Pri-
mary receipts were large, as were also
| clearanceS
Provisions were active but depressed,
| despite a good outside demand Hogs
were weaker and receipts were liberal
Liquidation by influential longs was
kept up during the entire session, and
| did much to lower prices. May pork sold
| from $1S to $12.6712, closing 456I4715c un-
der yesterday at $12671&; May lard from
| $6.971s to 6S712 and closed 121s6015c de-
pressed at $6.85q6S712, and May ribs from
| $l.l0gl1 1l12 to $6.95, with the close 15@l71sc
| lower at 81.
Oats advanced early in sympathy with
other grains. May reacted under the
| common impulse but July held steady
on reports Of late seeding and poor
crop outlook. May ranged from 25c to
| 412c, and closed unchanged at 245sc; july
| sold from 24S4c to 24$sc and closed &c
