KR|GH1 FOR TAFT 5 JOB
Announced From Washington
That Roosevelt Has Picked
on a Democrat
WRIGHT is OF THE TAFT TYPE
Ba and Brainy and Worker-sue-
ceeded Taft as Governor in the Phil
;ppnes Was Protese of Mekin-
lev. Who First Appointed Him to
Office.

/ lspecial Washington Correspondence
Washington, June lit Will take d
big man to fill Secretary Taft's place
as head of the war department Presl-
dent Roosevelt realizes this better than
anyone else can and he believes that ne
made no mistake when he picked Gen
ersl Luke r. Wright of Tennessee, for
the place.
General Wright is a democrat and
this fact has led to much comment
on the political phases of his selection
for the important post of secretary or
war. Entirely apart from politics,
however. there are strong reasons tor
the selection of General Wright, and
there can be no doubt he Is admirably
fitted to step into the shoes Mr.. Taft
will vacate.
1t is not always understood that the
war department has grown into, per-
haps, the greatest Of the executive de-
partments. Since the era of expansion,
the responsibilities on the secretary or
war have been tremendous. He is not
merely the head of the war department
proper, that is, of the military branch
of the administration He is the re-
sponsible secretary of insular affairs.
The vexing questions of the Philippines
are his to settle. He has to watch over
the perplexing problems arising from
intervention in Cuba. The conduct OF
the canal zone and of canal affairs
generally imposes on his shoulders
burdensome responsibilities. Far-reach-
ing problems come before him by rea-
son of the fact the war department en-
gineers are entrusted with the carrying
out OF the river and harbor work.
Has Splendid Qualifications.
An ordinary man would break down
in few weeks under such responsible
ties and the best answer that the
friends of Secretary Taft can make to
his critics is to point to the way In
which he has borne the huge burdens
of his office.
Now, General Wright is expected to
take up the burden that Secretary
Taft has carried long and successfully
1t is a reasonable expectation, If Cen
eral Wright lives up to his past record.
that he will make an excellent secre-
tary of war.
General Wright's homo is in Mem
phis and he is native of Tennessee
He was born in 1S47. His father
Archibold Wright, was chief justice OF
Tennessee His wife is daughter OF
Admiral Raphael Semmes, of the con-
federate navy, whose record of eX-
ploits in wiping northern commerce
from the ocean is familiar. General
Wright served thru the civil war as a
confederate He was in the artillery
and his record was an honorable one.
He was for eight years attorney gen
eral of his state. 1t was as attorney
general that he gained the title of
General" He did not rise to that
rank in the service of the confederate
army, as is apparent from the fact
he was but eighteen years old when the
war ended. He studied law and has
risen to the rank of Tennessee's leading;
lawyer He gained prominence in 1873

Appointee of Mckinley.
President Mckinley appointed Cen
eral Wright a member Of the Philip
pine commission March 16, 1900. Inn
portant duties devolved upon him. In
cidental to the sickness of Governor
created Oct. 30, 1901, and General
Wright was appointed to fill 1t. The
subjects of legislation assigned to him
as member of the Philippine COM
mission We're internal improvements,
franchises, militia, police and the GRIM
ina code. He was also assigned to
give attention to the civil code in con-
nection with Governor Taft and Com
missioner lde. Each commissioner was
expected to conduct Investigations into
the subjects assigned him. The most
important bills that were prepared by
General Wright and enacted by the
Philippine commission were the penal
code, the bill for the organization of
the constabulary to replace the army in
many small garrisons. the bill for the
I'll pIiC PoilSC uoASS u
Manila and the bill for the improve
ment of Manila harbor.
General Wright was nominated for
civil governor of the Philippines, Jan.
4, 1904. He served as governor until
March 81, 1906, when he was sent to
Japan as ambassador. He served for
a number of months in that capacity
and then at his own instance returned
to private life.
Another Taft.
In the successor to Secretary Taft,
the war department will have head
much like the present secretary of
war. General Wright and his family
have always held a high position So
cially. He is fine lawyer and a
great worker. He has the same ca
pacity for the dispatch of business
that distinguishes Secretary Taft. He
is an American to his finger tips. He
is not politician. Some folks say
ne is as poor politician as Taft. That
he is not always polite in his speech
may be judged from a remark he
made short time ago in speech in
Memphis when the turbulence drew
from him the observation that the
riot and rowdyism made him think
he was attending republican con-
vention' He was then slated GER
tainly for secretary of war. but as US
ual he forgot about politics and spoke
his sentiments.

Cattle Receipts Liberal and De-
mand Slow, Resulting in
Lower Prices
EARLY DECLINE IN HOGS TODAY
Prices Five Lower On Slow Market at
the Start, But Loss Resained on
Later Development of streneth-Re-
eeipts Heavy-sheep Trading Light
and Prices Lower.

Chicago, June -Cattle-Liberal re-
ceipts and slow demand brought about
a 1O@15 cent decline in prices.
In the last ten days killers have been
getting little surplus of beef. Grass
fed stock has come in goodly numbers,
and in putting into their coolers more
beef than can be readily disposed of it
would appear that the killers are get
ting into shape to put prices down.
Any rush of corn-b belt feeders to unload
the medium short-fed steers and
grassy lots within the next week, say
the traders, is likely to effect a rather
serious drop in the prices. Cautious
operating is advised. The trade can
do nicely with moderate runs, but not
SO with any very liberal overflow.
Hogs.
Receipts were heavy and there was
an early decline Of cents, on slow
market. Later some strength devel-
oped, and the early loss was regained.
Big runs here and outside have nat
urally had their effect in causing some
instability OF prices in certain direc-
TONS Despite the fact that the Kan
running the receipts have been unfail-
ing and whether this is purely due to
a determination of farmers to market
their stuff or whether, with Kansas
City going, it would mean greater re-
ceipts, is a matter purely for guessing.
An adverse factor of late has been the,
lack of shipping demand A widening
of the price spread is talked of and
a dollar between corn and grass fed
is predicted for the early future.
Sheep.
Sheep We're weak, and l0@15 cents
lower; trade was light.
There has been a profuse showing of
natives, the fist heavy supply from
that quarter this season, and made up
mainly of ewes and spring lambs So
many ewes showing up hits the mar
1et for fat sheep. which have been
scarce recently and selling out of line
with everything else on the list. The
run of ewes locks like liquidation of
stock, meaning that lambs
and dams will go to the butcher to-
yether this year. 1t was a foregone
conclusion that such thing would
happen after the boom of last sum-
ner.
Wool lambs on the fed order are,
hardly quotable now, supply of that
stuff having been we'll cleaned up.
Spring lambs are in good demand.
There is the same broad demand for
shorn lambs to make out and finish.
It is attributed mainly to scarcity and
high prices of feeding cattle.
