Stockton and Feeders.

demand for stockers and feeders
has not been good this week, for coun-
try buyers have been Indifferent, feel
ing that prices were beyond their
reach. Most prospective buyers are
content to remain inactive until more
light cattle are available and are
cheaper. The general impression is
that $3.50 feeders are too lofty for an
investment with any hope of getting
out even. Most buyers from the coun-
try kick against paying more than 50
for feeders and the result is that buy
ers are not able to get many, for the
killers are willing to give more for
slaughter. Demand has been so light
during the week that even in the face
of exceptionally small receipts the
market has been extremely dull, with
sales largely 10@15 cents lower. and
some steers showing 25 cents decline.
Lately 1t has been hard to sell feeding
cattle unless very choice and even the
stockers have failed to meet with the
usual demand. Local buyers have been
Indifferent for they We're afraid that
they could not get rid of what they
bought. II the market gets several
points lower the probabilities are that
the demand from the country will be
revived. Receipts We're remarkably
small this week. but apparently heavy
enough to suit the requirements of the
market. A few choice feeders sold
early in the week at 1925 $3.50, with
the good class of stockers at $4,000
400, and most of the fair to medium
stockers at s425@450. and common
down to $3.50.

up the eighth. At the sound the broom

For that call was from Hobo king
of the Alkali Steer Garden, which ex-
tended over few billion acres of al

and badlands, interspersed thickly
with magazine writer's. But where, all

started off on leisurely trot, not

Suddenly he stopped and woofed.
Hobo was a swell woofer. He could

CHRISTIAN PEACE

pie which theoretically, at least,
n inspires Christianity, a motto of
the Christian Endeavor convention at
Pasadena is peace and Harmony" +"
national and international. Most of the
ills from which modern civilization is
suffering are produced by inharmon-
ious conditions resulting from a re-
fusal OF society to accept literally
the fundamental teachings of Chris
tianity.
Part of the excellent address of
Mayor Farley of Pasadena dealt with
this.
He said: 1--WE hope in time, through
the good Offices of your society and
others, to do away with all war and its
terrible consequences. We have on our
pension rolls 951, ,6S7 pensioners, and
have paid out for-pensions since the
War of the Rebellion 1864, 663, 665. And
the money consideration is small in
comparison with the suffering and
hardships that have been brought to
thousands of our people, and especially
many of our old soldiers. The suffer-
ings they endured no money considera-
tions can ever pay for, and we hope
through the GRAND PEACE ARMY,
which you represent, we can in time
do away with wars, and that your in
fiuence will be felt by all nations in
the upbuilding of civilization"
This. then, is the principal mission of
the Christian Endeavor, to bring to
the world the PERPETUAL PEACE
OF TRUE CHRISTIANITY. 1t is in
deed a noble and right Christian
Endeavor, we'll worthy of the earnest
sympathy and enthusiastic support of
"all sorts and conditions of men, who
call themselves Christians.

TURKEY

II ETAILS of the massacres at Adana
make it certain the government
- should call Turkey to account and
should do its calling in a way that
means business. The manner in which
our national government at critical
times deals with governments like those
of China and Turkey is a constant in
centive to mischief on the part of these
irresponsible powers.
If wanton murders of American citi-
zens be committed in Germany, France,
Italy or Britain how long would it take
our government to call Germany,
France, Italy or Britain to account?
But because Americans have been muir
dered and American property destroyed
under the Turkish flag the government
may or MAY NOT demand reparation
at the bloody hands of the Turkish
authorities, who, it is stated, We're
warned the Americans were in i'm
minent danger, were asked to provide
protection and failed to provide pro-
lection.
No matter who is or is not the sultan
of Turkey. the fact remains the PEO-
PIE of Turkey should be taught that
to fire a hostile shot at the American
flag, especially when hoisted over a
Christian mission, or a hospital, is
equivalent to a declaration Of war.
Turkey is a great deal more of a
nuisance to civilization than was the
Spanish occupation that kept Cuba i'll
an uproar; until the destruction Of the
Maine, and not humanitarian interest
in the well being of the Cubans, caused
the United States to make war on
Spain. 1t is terrible to think there is
even ONE place left in the world where

MR.. FOLK FOR PRESIDENT

TN OUR news columns today are re-
ported resolutions recently adopt
II ed by the Democratic league IA
voring Ex-Governor Joseph W. Folk as
the Democratic standard bearer in the.
next presidential election.
The action of the league at this
early date may, by some persons, be
regarded as premature; and yet again,
it may turn out that it is prophetic.
There can be no denial of the fact
that Mr. Folks character includes a
good many of the qualities which the
American people are going to look for
in their next president; nor can there
be any questioning the fact that his
record represents a good deal of the
sort of achievement which the Amer
lean people are going to demand in
the record of their next president.
1t was with unfeigned regret that
majority of the people of the United
States saw themselves deprived of the
opportunity of returning to the White
House man of Mr.. Roosevelt's char
acter for honesty, integrity and
SlT6uStu OF pulpOSt anu VI MS tOSoA u
as a real reformer.
From the action of Mr.. Taft with
reference to tariff reform-or, rather,
from his non-action in that matter
it begins to look as though the people
of the United States are going to have
an additional lesson from the present
administration in the desirability of
having as their chief executive man
possessing the Roosevelt and Folk
characters and records.
1t is pretty safe TO say that should
Taft. during the remainder of his term
apply to the great questions which will
confront him the do nothing policy"
that he has so far applied to the
pledges of tariff reform made by his
party during the last election; and
further, should Mr. Taft be nominated
to succeed himself-the majority of
the voters of the United States will
be on the lookout for a man as presi-
dent who is as far from the Taft char
acter and record and as close to the
Roosevelt character and record as they
can get.
Under such conditions, a man of Mr..
Folks known character and with his
established record will be demanded
by the Democratic party as its candi-
date. and Mr.. Folk should stand every
chance of being that man.
