CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET
Active Selling Of Wheat by Pit
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Weak

CHICAGO, Feb. 1O.-During the early
part of the session the wheat market
was inclined to be weak and there was
considerable selling by pit traders. An
early dispatch from Liverpool quoted the
market there, as being, off as@1ad because
of rain in the drought-stricken portion
of India. Another depressing influence
was the absence of extreme cold weather
in the winter wheat belt of the United
States, reports from that section showing
that temperatures were comparatively
high. Trading during the first half of
the session was of small volume because
of poor demand. but later offerings were
readily taken by shorts and commission
houses. The high point of the day was
85sjc for May and the market closed
firm, unchanged at S51ac.
The feature of trading in corn was SELL
ing by a prominent commission house,
but the volume of general business was
small May closed 1S@Ac lower at 44%@D
44Bc.
The oats market held steady all day.
but trading was lifeless. May closed
unchanged at 30hd30Ac.
Provisions were weak because of selling
induced by continued large receipts of
live hogs, At the close May pork was
down Pee, lard was off 2hc and ribs
were 10Q12Hc lower.

AN EXPENSIVE SPEECH.

Representative McCleary has issued
as a special number of the COMPRESSION
al Record a thirty-six page stand pat
tariff speech. which ostensibly was de-
livered last June but was really with
held from publication until President
Roosevelt could make up his mind
whether he wanted to stand pat or not.
AS soon as the presidents mind was
known, this speech was printed and IS
to be distributed by the million as a
campaign document. SO far the matter
is simple but there is another phase
Of it.
Every newspaper in the country is
confronted with the possibility that
congress will attempt to raise the post
age rate ON second class publications,
which have hitherto paid the cent
pound rate. The change is being agitat-
ed because the postoffice department
shows a deficit of something like $2O.-
ment charge the deficit is due to the
low rate on certain classes of matter
which. they aver. are carried at a loss
Figuring this one speech of McClea-
rvs as a basis. It is not hard TO see
where most, if not all. of the postal de-
felt comes in. Instead OF paying for
the transmission Of this campaign mat
ter. it is franked as a public document
and sent out at the public expense It
was not delivered i'm the regular course
as n public speech, it was intended
solely as a campaign document, and yet
the cost of distributing II is assessed to
the people and charged up TO the post
Office department. Doubtless there have
been some such cases with Democratic
members. though there is no record of
quite such a wholesale job OF deadhead
campaign distribution before this.
The point is that the franking bust
ness has come to be a public burden
and scandal, where it was intended only
as benefit to the members constituents
and used legitimately is proper and
right. Like the leave to print" by
which members insert in the Congress
sional Record speeches they never de-
livered, the ranking system is a bunco
game and ought to be reformed before
the discussion to raise postage rates
goes any further.

lure invites and tolerates war, so long
as nations cultivate the martial spirit
at the expense of the moralities. and so
long as frail human nature preserves
the relics OF the spirit which governed
in the stone age. combat between indi-
viduals and nations may be expected to
continue.
AS I'm most cases OF disease, the prize
fighting mania is furnishing its own
cure gradually, just as the burden Of
heavy ornaments is furnishing an an
tidote for the martial spirit IN nations.
The crookedness of prizefighters and
the gamblers who furnish the motive
power for fights is gradually but GER
tainly putting an end TO any perverse
sentiment that encouraged them. The
Gans-Nelson fight gave no evidence
of the decadence of the game, but it
comes pretty near ending Nevadas in

way toward discrediting the remnants
of support 10 be found in a few sport

TWO NAVAL DISASTERS.

With the Atlantic feet giving a pa
rade for the president on one side Of
the continent and two vessels. an army
transport and cruiser, both ashore in
Pacific waters, public attention to naval
affairs is by way of being stirred con-
siderably
The transport went ashore on reef
of one Of the Hawaiian islands which is
known 10 all Pacific navigators; the
cruiser grounded in waters which ought
TO be familiar TO every naval officer.
and yet both disasters. so far as unof-
fetal reports show, are quite ordinary
and to be expected. In the case of the
transport. the commanding officer at
tributes his accident TO unexpected
strong currents which threw the vessel
out OF her course and upset his calcu-
lations. but men familiar with the con-
ditions say he was attempting 10 reach
Honolulu and was not content to wait
for daylight. as the commercial steam
ers invariably do in order to escape just
such dangers as awaited him oisas-
trously.
The lesson Of the affair. as a layman
sees IT, is old as the hills. The navigat-
or who risks his command TO make

Gleanings and Comment.

THE SPEECH of Chancellor
Buchtel, Republican candidate for
governor at the ratification the
other evening as printed is in
many ways a masterpiece. DR..
Buchtel showed that the most
potent man in this country, The
odore Roosevelt. achieved what
he has by working within the
party even though tempted in
1884 to work where chances Of
success were more alluring.
Then he defended the right, yes
the duty, of the minister in poll
tics and within a party. He said,
the only reason we have any
immortality in our political life is
because SO many good people are
criminally Indifferent to the well
fare of the state" He outlined
our mission as a people--to teach
men self-government; to make
the largest possible liberty for
the individual and the family.
This is great commission. 1t
is not easy. 1t is unpeakably
difficult because government is
not tho natural condition of So
ciety, but government is the
struggle of society, the perpetu-
al toll of it as against the anar-
chy of ignorance and wickedness.
Government is society on the de-
fensive." The two duties before
Colorado, he said, are to maintain
the ground gained over political
corruption in the last few years
and to make betterments and
reformations wherever they are
necessary. The sincere manner
in which the Republican party
has undertaken reforms and car
ried them through successfully
is the best possible guarantee
that its pledges for the future
are made in sincerity.
