WEATHER, WET AND
DRY, BOOSTS WHEAT
Too Much Moisture i'm the
Southwest; Not Enough in
the Northwest.

CHICAGO. June 26.-Excessiye rains in
the Southwest and lack OF moisture in
the Northwest had a strengthening effect
today on the local wheat market. At the
close wheat for September delivery was
up i6ac. Corn was up Im1c. Oats

MAY DUKE CHERRIES
ATTRACT LADIES
Finest Line of Home Fruit Yet
Handled on Market
Row.
SHIPMENT EXHAUSTED
BEFORE STALLS CLOSE
Strawberries, Love Apples, New
Potatoes, Tomatoes, Fea-
lures of Wednesday.

what was considered to be the finest
lot OF cherries handled by the rner-
chants on Market Row this year ar
rived Wednesday from Centervilie They
are known as the May Duke" variety,
md n seems that they have hitherto
won the approval OF the housewife. for
they were In demand yesterday. and
when the stalls closed for the day. The
May Duke Is an exceptionally delicious
cherry with qualities which make II
particularly desirable for canning But
what made the Centerville lot excel
anything that has heretofore appeared
on the local market was the fact that
they were tho first, crop. gathered from
nne new orchard. They sold at Is
cents pound.
Strawberries we're not as plentiful
Wednesday as on the preceding day. but
prices remain practically unchanged. Tho
quantity OF strictly local goods on the
market was Insignificant but the usual
consisnments arrived from Utah county.
strawberries are selling at 10 and Is
cents a box: Pineapples arc more abun-
dant than they have been heretofore and
prices are lower. They sold yesterday
at 10 and 20 cents each. The second
Wednesday forenoon They are selling
at TWO sounds for 25 cents.
The wholesale price OF tomatoes was
enough to bring about any reduction
In the retail price. The retail mer-
chants assert that they made the last
reduction before conditions warranted
the procedure and that In all probabil-
ity the love apples" will not become
much cheaper for many weeks. They
arc selling at 10 cents a pound but
it is probable that they will retail at two
pounds for 20 cents in the near future.
New potatoes nre now selling regularly
at cents poundl The supply and
prices OF other vegetables remain un-
changed. There was no change In CON
ditions on the FISH market yesterday, ex-
ccpt for the fact that the stock was
heavier than on Monday and Tuesday

principles. In doing this you cannot
vote as an American but will have
to act in accordance with legitimate

proceeding further, what excuse will

it is folly to support the candidate for

the Tribune on the hip in the matter

ordinance was simply Tribune graft
of $I44 An amended ordinance will
have to be passed and the publication
will have to be made again. In fact
several ordinances may be passed be-
fore it is satisfactory to both sides
and if each one were published pre-
maturely it would be drain on the
city treasurer by which the Tribune
would benefit. 1t would be steal
pure and simple.
The democratic members of the
city council are making a very poor
showing by not demanding the pub
LEGATION of the report of the special
auditors who were employed to make
out a statement of the city's financial
condition. The report was completed
months ago, but it made so bad a
showing for the American" admins
tration that they have suppressed it.
1t seems to us that it would not only
be good politics, but good moral; for
the minority of the council to
demand and clamor until the
administration would be forced to
give it out. There is a niger some
where in the wood pile. We strongly
suspect that the report tells about as
badly against the Morris adminiStra
ton as it does against the "Ameri-
can" The Morris administration we
all know was not ny and means an
ideal one either in the matter of f.
nance of anything else.
