sHEEP-Receipts OF sheep this morning
were very small and the quality sener-
ally poor. II was a case of a good deal OF
trash and rot much else. At the same
time there was a good demand for any
thing that would do to kill and the feel
ing was hat good fat sheep or lambs
would sell quite a little higher. There were
A.O0, and a little bunch OF natives, part
yeaIlings, sold up 10 A.6, with native
lambs at A.b. There were NO good west
ern lambs to make a test OF the market.
Anything In the way Of feeders That was
at all desirable met with qulte ready sale
at good, steady prices. A feature Of the
market during the last few days has been
the large number OF old, thiR ewes, the
kind that are generally described in the
ton are always hard to move and Il has
kept statesmen busy to keep them from
accommodating. OI1 ewes OF that descrip-
ton are selling all the way from 800 per
hundred up 10 s. .25. In fact. quite a COED
many sold at and right around Sl.S5. ana

A Misuuotation.

From an obviously inspired Wash
ington dispatch to the Tribune:
On October IA the president an
swered, stating that he had heard that
Mr.. Hartman did not think it wise
to come, and continued:
IF you think there is nothing spe-
cial I should be informed about, or no
matter in which l could give aid, of
course, give up the visit for the time
being, and then a few weeks hence,
before I write my message, l shall
get you to come down to discuss GER
tain government matters not connect
ed with the campaign"
Tut! tut! Keep the record straight.
This is what the president wrote:
IF you think there is any danger of
your visit to me causing trouble, or If
you think there is nothing special"
etc.
What could have been Anybody's
purpose in cutting off the first part
of that sentence, and conveying a
false impression by beginning the e c
ond 'sif" with a capital ~" Wisdom
cannot. be s~upplanted by cunning
while memories continue to be green.

Tune Kermit Whlstled.

MI. w. w. Miller. a well-known law.
yer, tells an anecdote Of Kermit Roose-
ve1t, the presidents son.
II was acting as steward" says Mr..
Miller, "in some gymkhana races at
Oyster Bay a few weeks ago, and one
Of the events was a race in which the
contestants had ia ride a given dis
lance to a certain spot where an equal
number Of young ladies stood with
pencil, paper and envelope. Each
rider had to dismount here and whis-
tie a tune, the lady writing its name
down on the paper. She then had to
seal it up in the envelope and hand
1t to the rider, who remounted and
finished the race, delivering the en-
velope to the judges stand. The first
n In with q correct answer won the
event.
las steward, I was deputizod before
the ace to write down the name of
the tune each entrant would whistle.
What are you going to whistler"
asked young Kermit.
I'm going to whistle Everybody
Works but Father" said the presi-
dents son.

Tariff %Iniuuity.

American railroads are complaining
all the time that they cannot lay
hands on money enough to provide
double tracks even where they are
necessary to cope with the growing
traffic. Yet a reduction of eight dol.
lars a ton in the price of steel rails
would enable the double tracking OF
more than rs per cent. o road for
exactly the same cost.
Why should the tariff favor the for
eign railroad at the expense of the
American railroad?
Once upon a time prOtectionists
successfully Haunted the bogy of Euro.
pean cheap labor, and pleaded the
high tariff as a necessity to maintain
a high wage and a decent standard OF
living for the American skilled arti-
san. But this bogy vanishes when we
consider that every employee of the
highly-protected United States Steel
Company earns for the stockholders
an amount every year equal to hi
wage.
