Kansas City Stock Yards, Jan H. l9io
Cattle receipts last week showed
some enlargement from previous week
but were still small enough TO permit
statesmen to enforce an advance or III
to 20 cents for the week on nearly
everything, after numerous nuctua'
lions. Tuesday was low day of the
week followed by stronger markets
including Thursday, but with some
weakness at the close of the week
The supply today is 1900 head'
somewhat heavier than was expected,
although there is strong disposition
known TO exist amonI fee !ers TO get
rid of short fed holdings. Sentiment
Is general that higher prices will raIe
later In the season, bas on the
heavy marketing of short fed ca Tie
lately, and on the way hogs and
sheep are soaring, and feeders feel
that they began to feed too early In

TAXES, DEBT, DISHONOR
GUTHRIE'S ANSWER: KILL THE BILL

Lie whatever the only provision being
that after the plans are adopted and
the contracts made they shall be rati-
fled by the legislature. One little sec
tion of the law, tackled on as an af-
ter thought, evidently, provides that
the state treasury shall 10 some time
in the future De reimbursed for the
sC00,0 under the laws to bc enact.
ed ty some future legislature. AS
the previous sections OF the bill ar-
thorize the commissioners to gpend
all of the 100000 and every dollar re-
ceived from the sale of any land, the
only way to reimburse the state treas.
ury In the future would be ior the
legislature to add on few more dol
lars OF taxes.

scheme Just as they have saddled
