reasons why they should support Mr.

10 the first place, Mr.. Stockton

sources in early life, he has passed
rough all stages of a laboring m N g

that they know they cannot enjoy if
John stockton is elected governor.
He has been criticised, Mr. Editor,
for opposing the railroads in their
efforts to dictate the politics of the
State when as has been pointed out.
he has owned stock in a National
Bank and few other corporations
OF course such an argument is made
to catch the vote OF the fool or those
who do not think, for NO sane man
opposes a corporation as such, when
it stays within the legitimate sphere
Of its business. Certainly John
Stockton has made no such conten-
tion, but he does contend that the
government shonld be run by the
people and for the people and not
by the corporations and for the
corporations.
It is said that be was an indepen
dent. IT'S true he was elected to the
legislature a few years ago by one
faction Of the Democratic party in
Daval county, but be was admitted
and was recognized as leader in all
party caucuses aad conferences at

inpeach his democracy.
His political enemies have attempt

 The wheat market opened easy and be- came weaker as trading progress, the close being at almost the lowest point of the day. Additional back rust reports were received from the west, but many advices were also received claiming the new crop is now too far advanced to be seriously injured by the blight These denials of damages were chiefly respon- sble for the heaviness of the market, al- though unresponsve cables. a slacken- ing in export business and a decline at Minneapolis helped to depress prices.

The receipts of currency from the interior have risen again this week sufficiently to more than offset other counter movements.

SHARP UPTURN
 IN STOCK MARKET
Trading Is Dull Most of the Session But Later Is Active
COULD STOCKS STRONGER
Offerings of Stocks Are Very Light and This Aids the Cause of the Bulls, Whose Buying Brings
 a Substantial Advance.

New York. July 31-Today's desultory speculation centered in the copper stocks and in shares of companies in allied ln- dustrials. The effect on the general list was distinct, but moderate except Tor the late bulge in Reading. The feature of the market was the scarcity of stocks offering, so that the advances were made on comparatively light dealings. rms was true even of the copper stocks, ln which the dealings were most actlVe. The price of the metal was marked up agaln at the metal exchange and the price or warrants in London rose again. At the sa1.ei time general adviceS concerning the condition in the trade were of marked improvement, with reduction of stocks in growing demand from consumers There were rumors in circulation of the formation of speculative pools to oper- ate some of the most prominent copper stocks The movement was widespread, affecting Amalgamated Copper and abroad Rio Tinto, the principal producing company. Minor copper stocks moved in sympathy both on the stock exchange and in the outside market. American Smelting and National Lead showed their usual close sympathy with the movement of this group of securities.
 The interest shown in the rest of the
 
 in the pauses of the buying of the cop pers. The Gould stocks were first to move outside the coppers. The announce ment that provision had been made to meet the s. GOO, 900 obligation on Wheeling and Lake Erie notes maturing tomorrow gave some strength to the group all though the impression remained strong that the principal benefits from this set tlement will accrue to other properties No authentic information was forthcom- ing of the terms which had induced bank ing relief for the situation, but it was supposed that the Hartman interests were insured some advantage for their properties in the operation of the Gould lines The extreme reticence of all the parties to the transaction left room for some doubts of the accuracy of the re- ports in circulation, and this accounted partly for the dullness and hesitation of the trading.
 The improvement in condition of the cotton crop during July reported by the agricultural department was favorable factor, but it had been so closely pre- dicted in preceding private estimates that little influence was left in the actual publication. The departure from Wall street of E. H. Hartman caused an impression that an impelling force in much of the recent activity was to be withdrawn. The developments regarding the efforts of the railroads to secure an enhancement of their compensation for carrying freight were not considered of hopeful augury for the success of that effort. Reports of the special attention being given by the Attorney General to complaints from shippers of intended in- creases were taken to show a likelihood of active opposition by the administra-

 The market opened steady at !. changed prices to an advance of points, the gain being on August, which was influenced by scattered covering and reports that Wall street bu!ls would stop August notices. Later months were held back by a favtrab' e interpretation. of the weather map and shortly after the opening the market eased off a few points. but qaickiy advanced on bull support of the near positions and covering.
 After the government report was issued October contracts sold al 9.42 3 and December at 9.22c, or 4 to 6points net higher, but later the new cror eased off under realization as the govern ment report seemed to be attracting no aggressive support, while August sold up to 10c on reports that there was still a considerable short interest in that position and that the bulls had taken up everything tendered, tn ! amount being estimated at about 13. .000 bales.
