Nobody's Business.

IChicago Live Stock World.1
AS long as the matter Of getting dis
tribution of cattle receipts during the
week is left on the present basis there
is little hope of improvement. What IL
everybody's business is nobodys bus
ness.
Cattle statesmen and cattle shippers
say to themselves that if the matter IS
agitated that other people will attend
to bringing about the desired reform
and they can go right along getting
stock to market when it may happen to
be most convenient for them or whel.
they think the demand will be best. In
case other people are sending their
stock for other days of the week.
Doesn't it look as il there ought tc
be some way devised to prevent the ir.
Irregularities such as the market of the
past week has shown?
Receipts during the past seven days
We're:
Wednesday, April 20. ........... .1a,21o
Thursday. April 81. 7.45a
Friday. April %. I,sVs
Saturday. April 49,. 20e
Monday. April %. ,62s
Tuesday. April 2S, 3,1oS
Wednesday, April 81. 900
Now, emitting Saturday, which il,
recognized as holiday in the cattle
trade, the daily average run was only
about $4,000 head and could not be
considered at all heavy. Such unequal
distribution, however, makes it hard
for buyers, sellers. stock yards COM
pany and, hardest OF all, for shippers
who have to pay the cost.
The main thing that causes the troI-
bic in these uneven runs is the lack OF
regard for other people, the determine
ton to sneak in and get ahead Of some-
body, and willingness to let the 9TH
err fellow do whatever bag holding or
reforming that is needed to be done.
The smart. selfish ones suffer as
much as any, but there is not much
satisfaction to anybody in that
The Live Stock Exchange ought to
be able. with the cooperation OF the
stock yards and the press. to find the
cause and apply a remedy.

USELESS GAME LAWS.
ROCKFORD Register.l


AS 1t looks to us. all attempts at
legislation to secure the preservation
of the wild game Of this country will
come to naught. The people generally
do not respect the game law. This fact
coupled with the advent OF modern fire.
arms, the changed conditions under
which wild things have to live and the
almost insane desire to kin all types OF
wild things on sight, makes the early
extinction of nearly all kinds of game,
both flesh and fowl. absolutely certain.
The buffalo. the deer, the wild turkey.
the wild pigeon, the ruffed grouse and
the prairie chicken are practically all
gone, while the wild fowl-geese, ducks
and swan-are so harassed by the
bombardment 1000 miles long which
they have to endure both spring and
fall that their fight is diverted to the
far west or made at such heights from
the earth that they are beyond sight
and hearing. The game hog, the mar
ket hunter and the pump gun have
about completed the tragedy.

THE DAVIS NOTIFICATION.

The committee appointed to notify
ex-senator Davis of his nomination as
vice president performed tina pleasing
duty Yesterday. Elsewhere in this is
sue we give the speech Of notification
by Hon. John Sharp Williams, chair
man of the committee, and the reply
of Mr.. Davis.
Mr.. Williams speech was quite a
long one and very different from those
usually made on such occasions. 1t is
entirely too lengthy for a full review
in our limited space, but the text
should be carefully read through for
it is a caustic arraignment of the re-
publican party in Mr.. Williams char
acteristic and inimitable style. He
entities it "A Brief Historical DISGUISE
ton upon Some of the Blunders of our
Ancestors as Viewed fro mthe Stand
point of the Wisdom Of Republican
Statesmen who have Embraced the
strenuous Life" and he goes on to pay
his respects to that party and to crit
icise It's measures in a style one, famil-
lar with his oratorical powers, would
expect from the heading adopted.
He first takes up the discriminating
against the red mantle image OF
in cherry-on account of his race
and color and previous condition"
He then takes UP our great blunder
in taking up arms against King
George and his forces when the latter
were actuated, as they themselves
confessed, only by the kindest designs
of benevolent assimilating' to them
selves our resources and our oppor-
tunities'' a principle which we so
frankly recognize in the Philippines
He says we have, coming down to
the present day, made the amende
honorable for the strenuosity of that
Boston tea party of the Eighteenth
The semi-weekly messenger. [volume] (Wilmington, N.C.) 1897-1908, 1904-08-19

century by our governmental strenn-
osity at ~Indianola, Miss.
Another blunder, he says, was thai
we ought to have encouraged inter
state trade by stopping 1t as much as
possible by Interstate protective
tariff, as we W encouraged inter-
national trade by the same means
He exclaims: What an enormously
rich country the little state Of Rhode
Island would have been now but for
the influx of the cotton raised by the
pauper labor of South Carolina and
Georgia, slave b for a long time
and. therefore, worse than pauper
labor"
In the same strain Of sarcasm and
ridicule he takes up the republican
partyts tenets or the labor question
and it's foreign policy.
He comes in strong IN the former
and present ideas of what are the
duties OF the president and the rela-
tions between him and the congress-,
the departments OF government and
the people
These are only some of the points
touched upon by Mr.. Williams.
Ex-senator Davis in his speech of
acceptance makes reference TO the
fact chat for the first time since the
war between the states a man from
that section south of Mason n Dix
on-s line has been placed upon a pa
ton ticket, and he declares this to be
significant of a closer and truer BROTH
erhood among the people of the en-
tire cctIniry.
On the financial question he stands
square on the plank which Judge
Parker added to the platform by his
telegram TO Mr.. Sheehan.
He points out that the dire forebod-
ings Of the republicans made four
years ago as to what evils, especially
to labor and the manufacturing in
dustries, would come upon the coun-
try should the democratic ticket be
successful, have in many instances
been fulfilled, though there was no
change in the national administration.
He contrasts the conditions of labor
and the industries at the beginning of
the present administration with those
of the present time, showing how the
change has been for the worse.
He shows from comparison of the
state of the national treasury in the
first year of this administration with
it's present condition what extrava-
gance and mismanagement of the pub
lie finances have done. He points out
the inconsistent attitude of the repub-
lican party or the honey question.
He pays a high tribute to Judge
Parker and declares that with such a
leader and a party again united, as
the action of the st. Louis V
ton showed ours to be, there is uc-
cess awaiting US at the close Of this
campaign.
