1.-THE Democratic platform is fiji
only for dishonest party" said Mr.
Bryan. Well, it fits doesn't it?
The Republicans declared for tht
gold standard from conviction. The
Democrats omitted the money plank
from fear.
Voters would pay more attention Il
Democratic promises for the future
If they were not SO closely linked on
the lips with apologies for the past.
The Democratic candidate for the
vice presidency was a railroad mar
for many years. The voters will tell
him where to get off in November.
Western Democrats assert that they
are not satisfied with the political
character Of their vice presidential
nominee His financial character,
however Is all right.
Phe Democrats who allowed Judge
Parker to write their money plank
should be fair and allow Millionaire
Davis 10 revise their trust plank tn

Particular attention is being calledtu
the fact that Judge Parker passes the

There are more heroes In peacs than
In war. The Kansas man for example
who sees his crops wlthered by hot
Scorching winds one season, destroyed
by ball the next, and drowned by flood
the third, but who still comes w
smiling, splits On his hands and with.
out grunt tries it again, Is a hero.
For him there is no inspiration OF
cleaning bayonets and martial music
there are In his case no distribution OF
medals as rewards for bravery and
there Is little even OF the sOlace Of
companiOnShip. He just struggles on
against the OverpOwering forces Of
nature: whistles In The face Of repeat
ed calamitles and without complaint
or repining engages again in what
seems to be an almost hopeless contest
That man Is as much a hero AZ the
man who charges battery Or stands
the shock Ut Onrushins squadruns. -

Caldwell & Wards Grain Letter.

By Bartlett, Frazier & Darlington.
Chicago March 21.-Wheat was weak
most Of the session with no support from
spectators or from the routine news.
Those long in anticipation Of crop scare
disposed their holdings on the general
precipitation over the entire winter wheat
area Gables were disappointment
Northwestern receipts were large and
there was some talk of the Minneapolis
mills closing Thursday. There was only
a small amount of cash business report
ed before the close. Liverpool closed
at Adasc lower.
Corn-Relative to wheat was firm. The
trade was small and nervous. The fear
of May manipulation keeps the shorts in
an anxious frame of mind. Today's fiuc-
tuations were more the result of pit con-
ditions than any change in the cash sit
uation. There was some buying because
of bad weather throughout the belt and
the prospects of smaller receipts. The
cash market was steady and demand con-
tinues light. Liverpool was 1sc up.
Provisions-There was continuation Of
the commission house liquidation In pro-
visions. which has been so noticeable for
the last week. The easier hog market at
the yards and the rather liberal receipts
Of hogs at all points were bearish fac
tors The packers and shorts took the
forced sales. Shipments Of meats and
lard were larger than a year ago.

Caldwell q Wards Cotton Letter.


BY H & B. Beer.
New Orleans March 2t.-As Liverpool
was much more favorable than expected,
our market opened 81 TO 40 points on old
crop months and 2 to II points higher on
the new. Shortly after fresh buying oe.
casioned an advance Of 2 to 4 points but
subsequently the freer interior and llber-
al estimated receipts for tomorrow at
New Orleans, Galveston and Houston oe-
casioned a decline of % to SO from the
top. The good demand for hedged cotton
caused an advance of % to q points from
the bottom the close making the net gain
"a to So points on old crop options, where
as the new closed from ! point higher to
points lower. The port receipts for
the three days aggregate 1900 against
$4,000 last year. The FIVE leading interior
towns during the same time received H.
600 against 1900 last year. The semi
weekly receipts at the thirteen leading
interior towns are estimated to be 1900
against $4,000 last year. The movement
on the whole continues fairly liberal, but
it is claimed that large sales Of hedged
spot cotton have been made to spinners
on the break, indicating that they are
willing TO take hold around IA cents. Cot
ton on the spot cannot be sold. because
holders Of the hedged article are in a
position to sell considerably under factors
prices. The market has reacted about
140 points since the break on Friday and
II Is questionable whether spinners will
follow the advance. If values should re-
main steady exporters believe the de-
mand will continue. The danger, how
ever, Is in rushing up deliveries too quick
~ and checking the disposition shown to
buy spots Liverpool though is bulish
and cables from there attribute the sharp
advance to heavy buying by the continent
and Egypt. The action of Liverpool re-
eeipts. and the demand for spots will
regulate the future course of the market

cothran g. Co.'S Cotton Lett,


By C. w. Lee & Co.
New York, March A-Developments
have been 30 bewildering OF late that
hardly any one knows just how they
stand or Just what to do About every
one on the exchange has lost money. All
are In a position to lose more unless the
suspended firm pays dollar for dollar. We
trust this will be true-that the oblga-
lions will oil be settled and that the firm
will be able to resume business. The blow
to the bull cause is, of course, severe and
from now on cotton will go up II the crop
is as small as Ii is believed, and will not
If 1t proves larger. Speculation may not
be as much a factor for some weeks.
There are no indications that cotton is
not worth IA cents. 1t sold in Liverpool
at 1914 cents for spot today. This does
not look as though cotton was a drug
on the market. New York is selling at a
point that will prevent more cotton COM
ing here. The local stocks may prove very
attractive. While the turmoil resulting
from the failure makes the course of
prices irregular. the outlook should be one
Of promise. On sharp advance as this
there is likely to be a setback and I'M
certainty for time until the market gets
its second wind. Then we believe in higher
prices. The unforeseen liquidation mem
toned a week ago has taken place, and
carried values lower than they should
have gone. There is nothing In the situa-
ton to lead any one to change on the
value of cotton. We would wait for
setback, and would rather buy than SELL
