WELLMAN'S NIGGER IN THE
 WOOD PILE.

Notwithstanding the experience of Walter Weilman as a fake Arctic ex- plorer. and notwithstanding his unrelia- bility as newspaper correspondent who less than two months ago was disavowed in the editorial columns of the Chicago Record Herald which em- ploys him. he continues to be the chief of staff Oe the administrations cam paign literature bureau.
 II is presumably the theory that Wellman may be able to appeal to re- publican voters of a certain calibre and who might not be moved by ordinarily sensible statements of facts.
 WeIlman has recently discovered a Standard oil plot against the admins traitor. The Los Angeles Times, usu- ally conservative, prints column of fl which after alL amounts to nothing more than Wellmans bare statement of it's existence. followed by an array of reasons, why the story might not be unrea sonable.
 The Standard oil. according to We'll man, is financing the Taft opposition in the southern states. It was the Standard oil which paid for the Flori- da obstacle which Wellman calls the trump convention" in opposition to the regular" administration convention. The status of each of those bodies has been settled bv WelIman in his free and easy way. thus relieving the na- tional committee and the national con vention ot what looked at first like more or less of problem. Wellman says all this has been determined afer investigation" He has gone further and has determined the regularity" of the Taft delegates and the irregu- larity of the anti-administration dele gates from other states where he sup poses contests will be instituted. Of course. since these contests have not yet arisen, it has been impossible for Mr Wellman to bestow upon them that painstaking and impartial inVestiga- ton by which he settles age-old and world wide problems of all sorts.
 Wellman's bare statement of the Standard oil machinatiOns in the south would be much more interesting and command more attention if it were garnished with a fact here and there. or even with a circumstantiality. But there are none. Not name is men, toned in the whole story except that of the Standard oil. Not even a hint is given as to a single source of his information regarding this remarkable plot The whole thing is as indefinite as were the plans of Wellman for reaching the North Pole while he was sending out cheerful assurances from Tromsoe a year ago that they could net possibly miscarry.

TOO MUCH WAR TALK

As Mr. Holiday of Indiana told the are getting tired of militarism or mil itarist talk. The subject has been run into the ground at a time when We have more serious things to think oi than possible foreign war Some of the takers appear to be appealing t0 a wildly patriotic impulse rather than or readers.
 ''In case of war with a great na- tion. Japan for instance, hail mil lioa troops would not be sufficient properly to garrison the Pacific coast north and south" said Brigadier Gen eral Frederick D. Grant to the so- ciety of the Cincinnati, while those descendants of revolutionary officers were celebrating the memory of the Father of his Country, one of the most distinguished Fabians in all history. General Grant believes that I've could not get along with less than a million troops there He is too good a soldier tO proclaim seriously that it is neces- sary for this country to picket the Pacific coast with a million men as q measure of preparedness for only a vaguely possible assault Apparently he wanted to stir the soldier spirit of his audience with a yellow sensa- ton. At all events, the condition prec- dent that he assumes for his declara- tion is practically untenable It not only pOstulates the wiping out Of the navy, but it fails to take into account the effectiveness of the tactics which made General Washington a great commander and actually accomplished the success of the American revolu- lion.
 In event of war with Japan, for ia- stance" it might be an economical and expeditions plan of campaign to per-

init the enemy to land a force on the Pacific coast and go as far as it pleased" It would be interesting to conjecture how far such an army would get before being destroyed and driven back to its ships. Sooner or later an army in being" such as Washington managed adroitly from Long Island to Yorktown, would over whelm theinvader, if the invaders re- sources were not even earlier exhaust ed so that its forces quit of their own account-as did Napoleon when six hundred thousand men marched into Russia and sixty thousand managed to struggle out alive. It will be recalled that General Howe captured Philadel- phia. only to have it later revealed to his military instinct that Philadelphia had captured him. They will never see their homes again" was Kuropat- kins boast when the Japanese landed on the Russian preserves. The boast was not made good. But with only a small bit of the territory of Manchuria in the possession of the Japanese peace was made-and the Japanese military authorities were mighty glad to have the fight called off at that stage.

Chicago, July 24.-Cattle were
steady; demand tame. Receipts were
not heavy and were made up Of scat
tering lots of steers and butcher stuff.
Prices are 1O@35 cents over last weeks
close.
Buyers were Indifferent and
the general market was dull and
slow. 1t is evident that the outlet
for beef is not reliable, tho better
weather is reported on the Atlantic
coast. Packers are disappointed with
the poor outlet for all meat products
and are not inclined to stock up their
coolers far in advance. The market
is sensitive to sudden changes, espe-
ciaily on the down side.
Hogs.
Hogs were strong to a shade high
err. Shipping grades are in best de-
mand.
Provision demand has been pretty
fair lately and with provisions strong
the market has had an incentive to a
healthier tone. The poor grassy stuff
continues to come in abundantly and
is not wanted.
Sheep

activity displayed.
The heaviness Of supplies has been
factor in keeping the market this week
at low level. Many buyers returned
to the country earlier than usual this
week owing to the little encourage
ment they found Feeders have not
been in as great demand late this week.
which is but natural. Western lambs
continue to sell at a premium over
natives as they have a superior dress
