SHOULD NOT BE STAMPEDED.
Straightway following election the
big packers have announced that there
is going to be a gradual decline In live
stock prices Since the wish In this
case is father to the suggestion, be-
cause II will enable them to buy heav-
ily on a declining market and thus en-
large their profits-and they seem
abundantly able to carry out their
wishes-it is fair to assume that the
decline In prices will follow. Yet the
less the feeders Of the country are
stampeded by the announcement and
the less they yield to a very natural
impulse TO rush their stuff TO a de-
moralized market the more money they
will save in the end and the less will
the packers profit by the coup which
they have sprung. There can be de-
cline Of S1.5O per hundredweight from
present prices (S6 to 50 and yet be
left a very satisfactory profit in feed
ing corn worth 80 to 40 cents per
bushel. The man who is so fixed that
he can do so would far better hold his
hogs and steers. especially II they are
unfinished. and sell them few weeks
later, when there is reason to believe
that the market VIII have steadied
from the present furry. There are
Just as many hungry mouths 10 feed
now as before election. and there is
every reason TO believe that the legiti-
mate demands for meat products win
be Just as strong as they have been
during the past two years.

shows that salt water agreed with It.

totally different proposition.
For a week longer pursued my in

was a remark made by an old Irish

habited a little shack and eked out a

Of course 1t was only an old wom-

expressed chimed so exactly with my
own private belief that was more
confirmed therein than ever. That
night I resolved on a bold move and
rather desperate one--to arrest Mark
Henniker on suspicion and thus per-
haps terrify him into confession.
Next morning swore out warrant
before the local squire and went with
the Pisgah constable to serve it. We
found our man in the barn and clapped
