After some discussion the report on

opted BY the convention but the report
for the Denver delegation was held in
allegiance when each side will debate
the question for two hours this after

clusion that the report will cot be
adopted In its entirety and that the
Speer people must leave the conven-

PACKERS TAKING
LITTLE INTEREST
SOUTH OMAHA MARKET NOT LlV-
ENED BY ACTIVE BIDDING OF
THIS CLASS OF BUYERS.
Supply of Hay-Fed Cattle Quite Moder-
ate and Nearly All Offerings Fit
Only for Stocker or Feeder Pur-
poses-Nickel a Pound Would Re-
quire Pretty Good Stuff.

South Omaha, Mob, June CLAY,
Robinson & Co., the commission mer-
chants of this city, advise as follows as
to the present condition of the cattle
market here:
The supply of hay-fed cattle has been
quite moderate at this point the past
week; in fact, mostly everything of
this nature has been only fit for stock
er or feeding purposes, and a small per
cent has been what would be termed
feeders.
Packers Not Much Interested.
The beef trade has not been in very
good shape, and packers at this time
are undressing bidders for all
classes. They are buying a pretty fair
class of corn-fed steers at present at
$3.50 to SAYS, and to bring a nickel a
pound steers have to be pretty well
finished.
Fair Demand for Suckers.
There is a very fair demand for
stockers, and good to choice kinds in
this class are selling at $40 to s4.65;
fair to good 81 to s4.40. There is not
a very brisk demand for feeding steers,
owing to the dullness to the beef trade,
and good classes are selling at s4.25
to $3.50; fair to good, $500 to s4.25.
Cows and Heifers.
Butcher stock has not changed ma
terially during the past two or three
weeks, and good dry-lot COWS and heif-
ers are selling at 81 to s4.65; fair to
good, 1926 to $500, no hay-fed kinds
being included in the receipts.

stretches of level bottoms are per-

lands that ought to be raising wheat,

lands could be made worth $50 per acre.
They are altogether too valuable for
grazing. Instead of supporting less

Lack of DeXelopment.

Observing people who ride over
the Cheyenne and Northern railroad,
at this season of the year, are certain
to make adverse comment upon the
agricultural development in the valley
OF the Chugwater. The land is fertile,
there is plenty of water for the irriga'

good profit. Occasional fields of al
falfa dot the valley as proof of this
and the Wheatland flats give all the
evidence desired.

Casper heard of the announcement
of Mr.. James E. Cosgriff's candidacy

a ripple on her political sea. In fact,
Casper appears to be in a most indif-
ferent frame of mind. The entire pop
ulation is DO busy making money to
permit the boiling of the political pot
to disturb their dreams of wealth.
Those well posted are of the opinion
that when the time comes there will
be no contest, and that Governor
Brooks will have his county without
opposition. They say that is the log

governorship should go farther north.
What effect such arguments will have
