The reaction that was In progress
in the last hour on Saturday In the
stock market, developed into a mater
ial decline after the opening this
morning. with the speculative opera
tons all through the first hour gov
erned almost entirely by the unfav-
orable tone OF the London cables. Ar
bitIage brokers were sellers from the
beginning OF business until late IN
the forenoon. supplying most OF the de-
mands on downward movement and
inducing at the same time liquidation
OF long stock by some OF the bullish
room traders, while those committed
to the bear side became more ag-
gressive and offered stocks al con-
tinual concessions in prices.
At one time. shortly after the open
ing. there was sharp fractional adj

soon withdrawn and the rally was
followed by a downward movement
in nearly all active issues on which
extreme losses. ranging from one TO

movement was started. Missouri Pa

The following statement from one
of the most widely known and pro-
gressive farmers of the state shows
the sentiment of most farmers who
have given careful thought to the
proposed constitutional amendment
authorizing the state to give aid in
highway building This amendment
is one which vitality concerns not
only the farmers but the prosperity
of the state as a whole and every
man should resolve that, whatever
else he votes for IN November, he
will put a cross in the square marked
yes after this amendment State
aid Is bringing ABOUT a great I'M
provement in the roads of other pro
gressive states and Wisconsin should
not be behind
Il believe that the highway taxes
in Wisconsin in many cases are well
expended. but in other districts al
most or entirely wasted" says
George McKerrow, superintendent of
farm Institutes. After carefully
considering the system and methods
OF road building in the state and the
use made of our roads under the
changing conditions of travel, have
come to the conclusion that for my
self am a believer in state aid for
our highways, principally because in
this way alone a large volume of
property that now does not assist in
building country roads will be
brought in to carry its share of the
burden. The owners of this proper
ty in many cases are the users of the
automobiles that are now wearing out
our roads faster than any other class
of vehicles AS a farmer shall
vote fo&-@he constitutional amend
ment this fall, principally upon the
above mentioned ground that all tax
payers may alike do their share Of
maintaining the highways of the
