ment, was al. the navy department to-
day seeking information as to the
complaints and answering them as
fast as they we're presented. He es.
serted that the complaints originate
largely through the efforts of a rival
who failed to get the contract for
supplying the meat. Only on a few
occasions had the meat which he fur
nished been rejected by the author

these it was where he furnished froz.

it in that form, but they refused il
and another supply was sent. He said
that behind him was one of the large
meat concerns of the country, and
he had the run of their refrigeratinp
plant and could select such meats as
he desired. The concern, like him.

BLAME THE FARMERS.
Millers Say Husbandmen Were Care,
less in Stacking Their Wheat.

Special to the World.
Guthrie, Okla, August 1.-THE
farmers of Oklahoma are being GEN.
sured severely by the millers of the
territory because they did not stack
the big wheat crop that has been cut
this season, instead of letting it re-
main in the shock, where is has been
completely ruined by the recent heavy
and continued rains. "While an i'm
mense amount of wheat is bound to
be damaged by these rains causing a
big loss to the farmers of Oklahoma,
yet they have no one to blame but
themselves" said a Guthrie miller
in discussing the situation.
"The farmers had plenty of time
10 stack the wheat and it was purely
matter of shiftlessness that they did
not. The worst of it is that many of
them do not seems to care what be-
comes of the wheat. | hailed farm
er yesterday and asked him how soon
he would begin to haul in his wheat
He answered that he had none to haul
for the reason that when the thresh-
ing machine arrived at his place,
the sparks from the engine ignited his
wheat crop, excepting one stack.
1t didn't seem to worry him bit,
the only thing he complained Of be-
ing the fact that he had to get out
and work and help save the one
stack from destruction. Most Of them
take the same attitude regarding the
wheat that has been ruined by the
rain.
"We are receiving very little good
milling wheat, and the fact that SO
much Of the crop is being ruined, will
be harder even on the millers than the
farmers. | was told by Wichita
miller recently who had investigated
the situation, that 10 per cent of the
Kansas wheat crop had been rendered
worthless for milling and l do not
think the conditions are as bad as in
Oklahoma. The whest that has been
left exposed to the rains has become
tough and is worth little more than
half as much as that which has been
well cared for. We have only been

TWO RECORDS COMPARED.

Assuming with perhaps insufficient warrant, that Pre-
sident Roosevelt and Colonel Bryan will be the oppos-
ing candidates in 1905 correspondent asks the Post to
state which of the WILL in its opinion, have the ad
vantage in the matter of military records. Our corre-
spondent evidently leans toward Colonel Bryan, for he
reminds us that Colonel Bryan went into the full
colonel, while Colonel Roosevelt held only the rank OF
lieutenant colonel Of the Rough Riders the colonel be-
ing Colonel Leonard Wood, although the command Of
the regiment devoved upon Lieutenant Colonel Roose-
velt This difference in rank correspondent thinks
gives Colonel Bryan the advantage, despite the fact that
Colonel Roosevelt the front with half of his reg
ment dsmounted, and participated in engagement,
the record of which, written by himself shows that his
participancy without serious to the
enemy
If there were no better basis for correspondent
decision in favor of Colonel Bryan, than that which he
presents, could not agree with him. As Colonel Bry

Colonel Roosevelt with half of the Rough Riders was
climbing a hill along a road that led to the enemy S
lines, would say that in the matter of military records
the latter had very decided advantage But that is not
the whole story; indeed il is but small fraction of the
expedition of our little war with Spain, the expedition
that brought the carnage in the Philippines and loaded
this republic with the burden of sovereignty, under

alone" Unattended by any member of his staff, but
arrayed in full uniform, with the insignia of his rank

military prestige but as leader of the democratic party
