NEW YORK. July 17,-Speculative

lthe novelty of advancing prices OF
stocks and the maintenance OF the ad-
Vance with such persistency as was
lshown yesterday There was a marked
Hack of speculative initiative manifest
las a consequence in today's dealings
land the market was almost idle for
llarge part of the time, with prices
drifting llstlessly and with no we'll
defined course.
The number OF shares dealt in was
somewhat In excess Of the total Of last
Tuesday, which made the low record
for the present year, but the character
| of the trading otherwise was much
| the same. There was as distinct an
absence of pressure to liquidate as
was the case yesterday, but the effect
seemed less encouraging upon the
buying than was evident, Professional
board room traders openly expressed
skepticism of the stability Of the high
er level, on the ground that covering
of shorts was wholly responsible for
the rise and the reduction of the short
interest lessened the potential support
of the market at every step OF the ad-
vance.
1t was only with the most extreme
caution that purchases were made at
the higher level established at the
opening, and these gains were mostly
lost In the subsequent uncertain fluc-
tuations News was little regarded,
but there was some response TO re-
vived rumors regarding various stocks.
The dying out of demand on the ad-
Svance allowed prices to slip back, and,

CURRANTS HAVE ADVANCED
BOTH BY QUART AND CRATE
Fine Moapa Peaches Are to Be
Had and the Supply Is
Plentiful.

A carload OF potatoes arrived on the
local market Tuesday from California.
The wholesale price OF potatoes was
S2.25 per hundredwcight. Local ship
ments OF Moapa cantaloupes were re-
ceived during the day. Prices re-
mained the same.
Currants advanced in price to 10c
a box straight and S1.40 a crate retail.
The cause of this advance was that
there was a larger demand than there
was supply, 1t is anticipated that
the price will be reduced in few days,
Receipts from the farmers will decide
this. Cherries are now beginning to
get scarce. Prices Tuesday were: Ia
BILE cherries, 10c a pound straight; pie
cherries, four pounds for Csc. Fine
Moapa peaches were to be had and the
supply was plentiful. The retail prices
were 75c a basket and 15c a pound.
A splendid supply Of all kinds Of
vegetables was on hand. Summer
squash sold for 10c each and tomatoes
for 16c pound straight. No other
prices were changed during the day.
A good supply Of fish was In market.
The only variety reported TO be scarce
was bass. Poultry, which had been
very scarce for the preceding several
days, came into market Tuesday in bet
ter shape.

Der OF the principal countries Of
the world, will appear in the Sum

Bryan has already visited Hawai-,
Japan, Corea, China and the Phil.
ippines, and will include in his
itinerary India, Palestine, Egypt,
the various countries of Europe,
and Australia and New Zealand.
He knows what the American peo-
Pile want TO know, and he knows,
too, how 10 observe closely and
how TO describe what he sees.
Therefore, his letters will have q
human interest, a literary and news
value far greater than similar mes

the fate Of China, The mighty
changes stirring IN India, the re-

cause of Zionism, the crisis con-
fronting the kussian Empire and
the modernlzlng Of Egypt are some
of the topics that will be treated

Our Democratic friends are, Of
course, eatitled to their political
convictions, aud we do not con-
denim or denounce them for their
adherence to them if they believe
they are right. If they can win
the election in this county as Dem
ocrats, relying upon the correct
ness Of their political belief, we
would be the last to decry the re-
salt. 1t is only through such a
course that local politics can be
restored upon plane where they
will command tho respect of mon
OF all parties. The wild scramble
for office here, to get them by Sc
caring votes enough by any means,
legitimate or questionable, is why
many of our Democratic friends
have held politics here in disgust,
and has even brought repeated
protests from the party organ oa
the Democracy in this county.
What We have said along this line
in the past has angered NO one but
those who possibly would proRt
through the corruption of the vot'
ers Of the county. The straight
forward Democrat has our respect
as much as the honest Republican,
and they are the only ones to
whom We have taken our appeal to
put the corruptionist out Of basi
ness by keeping him out of Office.

for the highest type of civic vir-
tue; Stone with, his record Of trust

Carter County to 60 Republican.

A press dispatch from Grandin,
Carter county, last Thursday says:
Congressman NJ. +. Rhodes ad-
dressed the largest political gather
ing that has ever been held in
Grandia for years here last night.
People came from adjoining coun.
ties. Mr.. Rhodes held his audi.
ence for two hours. His address
was confined chiefly to the tariff
and Republican prosperity. He
successfully refuted the argument
made by his Democratic opponent
here few days ago, in which he
declared the people are NO better
of uuder the present tariff law
tasaa they we're under Wilson-Gor-
naa free trade and Grover Cleve.
land. Democrats who heard Mr..
Rhodes expressed themselves rs
being we'll pleased. Democrats
are also we'll satisfied with present
conditions. The laboring people
are more generally employed end
better paid than ever before in the
history of Carter county. The
Missouri lumber and mining CON-
pany, the largest saw-mill plant in
the state, employs 600 men at
Grandin. These men will largely
vote the Republican,; ticket this
year, as they have learned from
experience the difference between
Democratic hard times aud Repmb-
lican prosperity. The Kepubli-
cans of Carter county have Il
strong ticket in the field ssd are
making vigorous campaign.
Carter county will give 9epubi-
can majority this election.

l'he Republicans of this county
have the best and cleanest ticket
this year ever presented to the
voters of Washington county,
fact conceded by all fair-misded
Democrats. 1t has been alleged
in the past by our Democratic
friends that it WAS the weakness of
tho Republican candidates that
caused the defeat Of SO many OF
them, and not that the Democrats
had resorted to improper influences
to cause tho Republican voters to
desert their nominees. If this
we're true, there is no such excuse
this year. The Republican ticket
should make a clan sweep of it this
fall if principles and men mean
anything.
