B. Cummins today indited a rather scath-
ing reply to the open letter addressed to
him by Secretary Of the Treasury Leslie

in full is as follows:
Mr.. Secretary: I have the honor to ac-

speech recently delivered In Des Moines is
reported as saying that the explanation Of
the refusal of the senate to consider the
French treaty Is that II gives everything TO
France and nothing to the United States l
must do him the Justice to believe that he
committed grave offense against the pro-
prieties OF debate"

Australian Experiments.

beyond Europe, " says Charles E
Russell in the Foreword, in the
November Everybody's, to his new
series, "Soldiers of the Common
Good,' ''the old struggle has brought
forth in Australia a new form of
government, a constitution Of ad.
Y !nced philosophy, . system by which
aggrandizement is curbed, the weak
are protected agains. the strong, and,
while no private enterprise Is restrained
there a be nc huge combinations to
prey Spon the public and absorb the
vitality of capital. Starting later than
the rest of us, proftlng by so much
human experience, and being worked
out by what we are pleased to call the
ablest thinkers and foremost minds,
this constitution has BEEN declared to
be the most nearly perfect that ever
has been devised, the ripe fruit Of
modern thought and observation.
Under it a hod-carrier has become a
chief magistrate, and the people have
seemed to secure the largest possible
measure of self-governLIent. l sm to
tell how it was worked in practice,
aud how it has succeeded as a piece OF
government machinery, and how IT
has failed to solve the problem, Of the

View Of the Live Stock Markets at
South Omaha, c. A. Mallory, Mgr.

South Omaha, July 13. - Nothing
new or startling has occurred in the
cattle branch of the business this
week. With normal receipts alf
around and good demand for alT
grades of fat cattle, the trade ruled
fairly active and prices have been we'll
sustained.
Present prices for strictly fat cattle
are not high compared with the cost
of production or when compared with
former years, but there seems to be
enough cattle to go around and gen
eral desire to market them.
Range cattle will be a little later
than usual, owing to the late rains
but we look for free movement from
all sections and lower prices than the
present ones on most grades. We still
advise shipping native cattle fast as
ready, especially butchers stock, and
anything that will compete with range
cattle. Stockers and feeders are SELL
ing at about steady prices, while fat
butchers stock is selling better in
proportion than any other grades.
Write to us regarding any branch
of the live stock business or any of
the markets and we will give you the
latest and best we have
Hogs.-The packers have fought the
market hard and succeeded in hold
ing it down here, pretty well, but the

proved and prices have reached the
best of the year. All who have re-

are in special correspondence with us.

the markets, and as we give our per-

the markets, are prepared to furnish
reliable information and do good work.
The bulk of the hogs here are now
selling at $5.35@5.40, while the bulk in
Chicago are going at $5.45d555. Top
hogs command a better premium in
| Chicago while the other grades at
times do better at the western mar
kets.
