Cattle in Kansas City Touched Top
Price This Season
Stock Yards, Kansas City, No, July.
24--Prices on the various classes of
cattle were given a pretty thorough
test today. as some extra good quality
was shown in finished beef steers,
three loads at $3.50, yearlinEs and
heifers mixed at $3.50, and a drove Of
dehOrned ShOrthOrn panhandle feed
ers. 1910 pounds. wintered in Kan
sas, at $40. Yet in spite Of these
high prices which were the top paid
to date this season, the general mar
ket is called weak to 10 lower to-
day. It shows that the demand for a
choice class Of cattle is increasing
rather faster than production, al
though great strides toward perfecting
! their herds have been made BY the
cattle raiserS Of the southwest Of late
years However, the surplus Of low
grade. nOndeScript cattle continues
the big bulk Of complaints heard from
sellers. Last week was a good week,
but this week only the best cattle
have sold up to expectations; grass
cattle generally are 3 to Is cents be-
low close Of last week Run today is
5000 head, Kansas grazed steers
selling from $500 to S5-15, heifers
1926 to S4-25, cows $3.50 to S3.75,
dry lot cattle around $1-OO per cwt.
above these figures NealS are IS to
50 cents lower than last week, account
OF a big supply this week. and con-
gested veal and mutton markets east
best ones $4.15 to $3.50. Packers
have taken about all the grass steers.
50 far, q few heavy feeders to the
country at $500 to S4-75, and some
low grade stock cattle at $2-5O to
S3.25, stock heifers strong, S225 to
$500 Supply Of branded stock and
feeding cattle will be heavier after
this week
Hog prices are fuctuating. with a
downward tendency last week, but the
market seems to be gaining strength
this week. top today $50, highest in
ten DAYS, bulk $3.50 to 1855. Weights
around 80 pounds sell at the top, &C
count OF a good shipping demand for
that kind It looks like the packers
could not put the price down per-
manently, as they cannot keep from
competing for the rather limited sup
ply. $4,000 today, and markets are
causing producers to take more pains
with their hogs than heretofore, more
dipping tanks are in use, in effort 10
prevent disease. and all labor in this
direction IS wei repaid
Buyers have taken so TO IS cents

pretty high Supply IS fairly good,

CHAMP CLARK ON ELECTION
PROSPECTS.


Champ Clark, the brilliant Missouri
Congressman, after a three weeks lee
ture campaign in western and south
ern states, gives his view OF the poll
tfca.I outlook. and is in part as follows:
The chances are greatly in favor OF
our eIecting the next house That
viii insure BTyan's election in 1905
The democratic tide is rising every
where from Massachusetts, TO Iowa
and the republicans are quaTreling
and fighting each other in Kilkenny
cat fashion in almost every state in
the union, while the democrats are
getting together This means victory
ali along the line The republicans
are as badly split upon the tariff ques-
ton now as the democrats were on
the money question in 1895. Our do
nestle troubles are ending; theirs are
-dst beginning"
He remarked that republican SEN
atOrs and congressman since getting
home to their constituencies, have
been putting their ears TO the ground
and find that the people everywhere
are demanding tariff revision and
consequently, all at once, they talk
tariff revision
But il should not be forgotten that
this congress could have revised the
tariff, but failed to do so. 1t must be
revised by the friends, so they say;
but Congressman Mccall Of MasSs.-
chusetts. a republican tariff revision
one day prOpounded in the house this
far reaching question: II a congress,
republican by almost twO-thirds ma
jOrities in both houses, cannot afford
to revise the tariff, when can they AZ
ford to do So
He points out the impOssibility Of
the republicans revising the tariff
The truth is that, so far as the re-
publicans are concerned, Mr.. Speaker
: Cannon is the house. Like Alexander
Selkirk, he is monarch Of all he sur
veys and he is one Of the most ram
pant stand patters in the land. When
Uncle Joe, like Simon Of old, says,
Thumbs up it's thumbs up, AMI
when he says. Thumbs down. it's
thumbs down and Brother Ellis
thumbs go up and down with the rest
The only way to get tariff revision is
to beat Uncle Joe for speaker, and the
only way to beat him is to elect a
demo cratic house, which is about to
be done. Personally Uncle Joe * a
1ne man, but on the tariff he is rank
stand patter."
His view OF the situation in Okla
bona and Kansas, is as follows:
The history OF the last session Of
congress touching statehood ought 10
make Oklahoma democratic for all
time to come. Ny observations cause
ne 10 believe that it will and also that
we will redeem Missouri and elect
Colonel William A. Harris and the
whole democratic ticket in Kansas,
which will be a grand thing for the
Sunf1Ower state. served with him in
the house and he is a man who can
be relied on and who will do to tie

his summer home, Cedarhurst, at
Lawrence, Long Island, at 4:3O o'clock

peacefully that only the doctor was
able to detect the last heart beat

Will be taken to the beautiful mauso-
leum in lakewood cemetery at Troy,

ago by Mr. Sage at a cost Of $50 600.
His death was in reality a surprise
to his friends Three weeks ago ne

would recover. Saturday he began
to sink rapidly. He was cheerful as
long as he was conscious.

Twelve years ago in Australia

The Stanberry, No.. Owl pub
fishes the following from the Iowa
City Republican: A representative
of one of the largest mail order
houses in Chicago recently gave
his experience to a meeting of
newspaper men. He said that the
mail order business depends en-
tirely upon advertising. He made
one remark that merchants shoul !
heed. He says they took the local
papers and directed their special
efforts to communities where the
merchants are not up-to- date ad-
vertisers. If he found that any
line of business is any town or city
was not we'll advertised, as for in
stance. furniture, he said that they
flooded that territory with their
literature and always with satistac-
tory results. He said he believed it
true that country merchants could
greatly cripple the mail order
houses if they would advertise
freely and in the right manner. He
said that every advertisement
should describe ninutely the ar
ticles to be sold and quote the
prices. He thought as general
proposition that advertising that
does not quote prices is thrown
away or largely SO. Here IS food
for thought by merchants who feel
the effect of the mail order houses.
