sTockERs WILL GO HIGHER.
Kansas City Market Finds Dealers
Holding Back Their Cattle.

Kansas City, Mo-, October A.
1t appears as tho stockers and feeders
prices have reached as low point
as they will go the present season.
There are two reasons at least for this
belief, one that demand is about equal
to the supply, and the other is that
a good many producers have decided
not to market their stuff if prices de-
cline further. Should any considerable
number stick to this resolution, the
supply, will, of course, be cut down to
point below the demand. resulting III
an advance in price. There was very
little change last week, however Best
demand has been for heavy fleshy de-
horned feeders of good breeding, and
this class were steady thruout the week
at $3.50 to $500 or little better if very
choice. very good set of horned
feeders including Westerns We're secur-
ed at 1925 to s3.65. Good to choice stock
steers also held up in price, and sold
at $40 to $3.S5, but the large mass Of
medium to common stockers and

sold 10 to 90 cents lower, anywhere
from $2.25 to 1925.

This showing is interesting in that
it corroborates government and other
reports on the corp crop in the states
mentioned for this year. The in
crease in "other states" is attributed
to increased demand from Indiana and
Ohio. 1t will be noted that the total
buying has been less this year, indi-
eating a successful season for those
who are feeding.

MINER LOSES PATIENCE.

When the Miner ceases long enough
in it's endless task of inventing new
diatribes against the republicans of
the state and nation to give a word
of counsel to it's own party and be-
seemingly raise it's voice to the
Hearsts, organs, Clevelands, Parkers
and some more to stop their riots of
intestinal warfare on the party, it
must be admitted that things are
looking decidedly squally for that
side of the house. While pretending
to believe that the differences exist
ing between those estimable demo-
Gratis and the factions they represent
are not irreconcilable, it plainly man
ifests a tendency to view with alarm"
rather than point with pride" their
antics and reads them a motherly
lecture on the folly, not to say down.
right ~wickedness of their actions and
the peril in which it has a tendency
to place the whole caboodle of them.
Like many others who intend to
speak only words of kindly advice
and correction, the Miner allows it's
righteous indignation to rise to such
a pitch that it shows unmistakable
signs of anger in addressing itself to
those whom it seeks to reprove. It
calls them "would-be leaders, and rec
ommends to the delegates when they
assemble at st. Louis to ignore the
entire crowd of them and bring to
the front men and measures of a more
wholesome, more influential and a
more powerful character" II after
reading this the rebellious mob still
insists in carrying on it's unholy quar-
rels every last one of them should be.

be to raise a revenue for the collection
OF the tax, as well as the ascertain
ment of the number of livestock in
the United States on July l of each
year.
AS explained in the dispatches Mr..
Brooks does not seem to be as anxious
to see a law for an enumeration OF
domestic animals as for one creating
a special tax on the owners thereof
and for the devisement of a fund am
pie for the collection of that tax. Why
it should be necessary to levy a special
tax for taking a census of the livestock
of the country any more than for the
enumeration of the human animals
does not appear exactly clear. 1t is
true that the amount for each animal
is comparatively small, but that does
not make the measure any the less
Objectionable so far as relates to it's
