Provisions Scored Gains.
Provisions scored good gains all
along the line. John Cudahy was an
aggressive buyer, and offerings were
scanty at all times. The monthly
statement of the provision registrar
was looked upon as exceedingly
bullish. Two months of the season
OF ordinary heavy accumulation have
PASSED. and stocks have made only
trifling gain. Current receipts OF
hogs at all the western packing CEN
tiers are running far short of a year
ago; there is a shortage in the pack
ing since November / of 2,345,O00
hogs.
The buying by the cudahy brok-
ers has brought conservative people
to the belief that the Cudahy inter-
ests is out for control OF the job
bing trade during the coming sum-
mer. The purchases made recently
cover the entire list.
There was little improvement In

No Exporting During Week.


There was practically no export
business in wheat during the week.
and the indications are that this
country will be entirely ignored by
European importers fora long time
to come. Importing countries have
larger supplies than year ago. but
they are by no means burdensome.
and current weekly worlds ship
ments are really less than the esti-
mated weekly requirements OF the
importing nations. The big Russian
crop is the apparently neverending
resources to fall back upon. The I'M
porting countries are, therefore. in
far easier shape than they were at
this time last year.
Heavy shipping from Argentina is
beginning and Australia is Offering
more wheat to Europe at lower
prices. Shipments from the South
American republic for the week
were 2,6OS.000 bushels. and at the
same time the Argentine ports show
ed an increase In stocks OF 3.442, 900
bushels.
The let loss for May wheat for
the week was cents, July was *
cents lower and September declined

Corn Displayed Strength.

Corn displayed the same uniform
strength throughout the week de-
spite the much larger movement to
market. The western corn bulls
were beginning TO come into the
market again to reinstate the prop
erty that was marketed in the vicln-
ity of 20 cents around the middle of
last month. At the low point of the
week May was of Az Gems from the
top point from which the market
turned downward after the western
ers began to take their profits.
Some of the big corn houses here
began to advise their customers to
get back into the market again, be-
lieving that the present big run Of
receipts was largely due to clean-ups
on the railroads and that the decline
would check farmers sales. In fact,
there has been positive adyices to
this effect both from Nebraska and
from many points IN Illinois. The
bulls who have scored such hand
some profits on the previous ad-
vance believed that the proper time
to buy corn was when the heavy mar
ketings were on. They believed that
they would not have nearly as good
opportunity to secure low-priced
property after the receipts began to
fall off. in addition to buying by
some of the westerners, there was
also some buying by the east. Glenn
ent-Curtis, who handled a big trade
for Eastern and Southern cotton
traders during the previous bull cam
paign, were again taking hold CT
corn.
May corn declined Y cent for the
week. July and September were
each u cent lower.

Big Operator In Limelight.

1t is the popular impression in the
wheat trade that A. ]. Lichstern be-
gan putting out line of short
wheat late in the week, and is out
for a long and vigorous campaign on
the bear side. Brokers that usually
act for him were busy sellers. and
there was no indication that they
were doing any buying. Lichstern IS
given to making large ventures in
the wheat market. and has taken
some very handsome profits. as well
as some considerable losses in the
course of his career. Previous to the
Inauguration OF the Gates deal In
1904 he cleaned up over 100000
on the long side OF the market. and
very nearly duplicated his experience
on the short side when the Gates
deal went to pieces the following
spring. A good part OF his profits
on the short side were made on a
big line which remained out all

making a vigorous raid on the mar
ket. II primary receipts continue
large enough TO wipe out this the
premiums at outside markets and
turn the movement of wheat toward
Chicago, the bears are likely TO go
after the wheat market hammer and
tongs, regardless OF the Soneentra-
ton OF the local holdings.

HOW CAN THEY BE SUCH
HYPOCRITES?

Isn't it funny how Republicans,
who, few years ago were pro-
claiming the innocence OF Caleb
Powers from the housetops and
pretending to the people that they
were better friends to Caleb Pow
ers than either Hunter, or John
-. White. and for that reason.
should be elected to office, can
now say that Powers may be
guilty; 1t is a lot of fellows that
have no principle that are doing
it. Office is what they are after ;
ii 1t takes running upon some
body's popularity, when they are
in Jail. they are there with the
goods and if it takes running
on the platform that someone is
guilty, they are with the goods.
They will run on any sort Of
platform ii they think it will land
them in office
There was no other idea enter
tanned by the Republicans OF the
District, than that, they would
send Powers to Congress when
he was liberated. Now, if we
do not send him to Congress, our
past acts will stand out against
us, and disprove in very strong
terms, what we have heretofore
stood for. We heretofore pro-
claimed the innocence OF Caleb
Powers. If we fail to now stand
by what we have heretofore
preached. it will brand us as a set
OF hypocrites.
There is no question. but what
Leslie County will indorse Mr..
Powers. Our citizens mean to
stand by the things they have
been preacheing for the last ten
years. We were for Powers,
when he was in Jail; proclaimed
his innocence; and we are for
him now. If the eRpublican par
ty fails to send Powers to Con-
gress it will make a sad mistake
and one to be regretted.

EDWARDS HAS TO GO OUT
OF THE DISTRICT AND

DORSED.

d. c. Edwards is making a
great effort to convince us
(whom he must look upon as a
woefully ignorant constituency,
OF the great things he has done
for us people in his District, by
having outsiders write in and tell
us about it.
We wonder if he could not get
"a good letter of recommendation
from the Standard Oil Company,
or the Sugar Trusts, or the Shoe
Combine, or, in fact, from almost
any of the great Trusts and Com
bines of the country, which have
so procured votes and run legis-
lation, as to make the cost of liv-
ing an alarming and dangerous
problem? Edwards has never in
PRODUCED a bill, or passed a meas
ure, to protect the people of his
District from the oppression of
the money power He possibly
will be able to get good letter
of recommendation, too, from the

he ever introduced a bill, or

Men of the Mountains, this will

POWERS DEFEAT WOULD
RUIN THE REPUBLICAN
PARTY.

Ills rumored that the Demo
Gratis of the state are going to raise
a campaign fund of many thOus-
and dollars to assist the Edwards
machine in defeating the Hon.
Caleb Powers for Congress, but
we have too much faith in the in
tegrity OF the Republicans of the
Eleventh District to believe that
they can be bought and sold like
50 many sheep or cattle. We be-
leve, however, that the Democrat
&c leaders are anxious TO secure
the defeat OF Powers for the NOR
al or immoral effect it will have on
the next state campaign. If they
can defeat Powers, they will say
to the people of the state that his
own people have condemned him !;
that they expressed their belief
in his guilt, and if his own people
who know him best believe him
to be guilty that he certainly must
be. They will say that a Repub-
lican Governor has pardoned a
man who has been pronounced
guilty OF conspiracy to murder, by
his own people and his own party,
and they will make that an issue.
1t will be thrown in the faces of
the Republicans that they are a
party of assassination, that when
fighting Democrats they winked
at assassination, but when fighting
among themselves they acknowl-
edged the guilt of those whom
they defended. The Republican
party is on trial. 1t remains to
be seen whether they will stand by
their past record or not. If Pow
ers should,b by any accident, be de-
feated, the Goebel trouble would
be opened up. The Republicans
would be handicapped in the fight
They would go before the people
as a self-convicted party, as a par
ty that said one thing when fight
ing among themselves, and anoth-
er when fighting Democrats. The
nomination of Powers will forever
eliminate the Goebel affair from
politics in Kentucky. Nominate
Powers and drive the Democrats
from their strongest position.
Nominate Powers and demon
strate to the world that we are an
honest party believing what we
say and saying what we believe
Will the Republicans nominate
him? Yes the indications are that
they will nominate him by a
sweeping majority. The news
from every part of the district in
dicates that he is far in the lead |
and that he is growing in strength
every day. The alliance of the
Goebel Democrats with the Ed
wards machine has aroused the
loyal Republicans as they were
never aroused before, and they are
determined to bury the Edwards
Coebel Machine SO deep that it
will never be resurrected.-Somer-
