Turn Eyes on Politicians.

Turn Eyes on Politicians.
For the time being political discussions
are likely to be subordinated to study
and speculation of business conditions In
the light of trust reimbursement along the
lines now laid down and defined, To
what extent the politicians will sub
scribe and lend themselves to the new
conditions Is. of course, a matter of great
interest to Wall street and light upon
that question will be eagerly sought.
Naturally. there viii be opposition to
the administration program as revealed
this week and it may assume formidable
proportion. 1t would be strange, indeed,
if this did not prove to be the case and
herein lies possible uncertainty and ha-
basement The elections in themselves
We're to some extent rcassuring. They

country lave not been thrown off their

The industrial situation has undergone
some Improvement of late. Experienced
observers who have Travelled through tne
so1th and middle west agree that while
there are as yet no indications of busi-
ness boom there is enough going on to
keep a great majority of the people oc-
cupied. Manufacturers very generally re-
port that they are getting orders in suf-

week are quite likely to hasten action in
that field.

Way Clear for Business.

The overshadowing feeling in Wall
street at the present moment is that there
is nothing now in the way of a speedy
reimbursement of big business to meet the
conditions imposed under the new order
Of things. Any disposition on the part of
generals and captains of finance and in
dustry to impede this result will be
frowned upon. 1t viii not be popular for
the steel trust or any other trust to con
tinue In a contumacious frame of mind
1t would appear that we have entered
upon an era of sanity and Cancellation
an age of reason in its broadcast and best
interpretation. For the moment the stock
market affords the best medium for the
expression Of this feeling. The real eff
feet goes deeper and extends more broad
~ than this Wall street stage: it is from
beneath and beyond that the great inn
pulse will originate.
There Is danger that the exuberance
displayed Immediately following the judi
cial approval of the tobacco plan may be
followed by sharp and painful reaction
The first to get into action were fright
ened bears, who rushed In Ell masse to
cover their outstanding short contracts.
The fury of their buying sent stocks up
3 or points In an hour or two and made
market for immense lines of socks
that had been awaiting distribution on
favorable terms Large quantities Of Sc
curties had been bought two weeks ago
to stem the then pending decentralization.
1t is only natural that the experienced
financiers who had come to the rescue Of
the situation at that time should avail
themselves of the chance 10 bank profits
OF to Is points In that short period,
and this was done In a wholesale way.
1t then became a question as to whether
the outside public had realized the full
| significance of the changed conditions in
sentiment sufficiently to jump in and take
| the place of the Wal street combinations.
| Uncertainty on that point led the profess
sionals to play for reaction. To a very
considerable extent the short interest
which was frightened out during the early
boom was replaced by a powerful contin-
gent trained to look upon all sudden mar
ket buiges as providentially provided
"hard spots to sell on" In this position
| the heavyweight bears had the good will
| Of the conservatives. If there is anything
the banking interests detest 1t is unrea-
sonable market flurries either UP or down
They are always willing to give friendly
| assistance to market Improvement, but
not to wild and woolly speculation. The
entire influence OF the powerful banking
| combinations In Wall street win be
against a violent u2tu.n in the market.

Market Correspondent

A correspondent of the Chase
County Leader at Cottonwood Falls
drops into rhyme as follows:
A health to the girl that can dance
like a dream,
And the girl that can pound a
piano:
A health to the girl that writes verse
by the ream,
Or toys with high G in soprano:
To the girl that can talk, and the
girl that does not,
To the saint and the sweet little
sinner
But here's to the cleverest girl of the
lot,
The girl that can cook a good

Must Pay For Papers

Taking a paper out of the post
office makes the recipient liable for
the bill. o. ID. Austin, a Butler,
Mo-, publisher, sent his paper
to Charles Burge. The latter paid
for it twice and then refused to pay
again. He said he ordered it STOP
ped. But the court of appeals holds
that mere acceptance of the paper
created liability. 1t adds:
The preparation and publication of
a newspaper involes much metal and
physical labor as well as an outlay of
money. One who accepts the paper
by continuously taking it from the
post office receives a benefit and
pleasure arising from such labor and
as fully as if he had appropriated any
other product of another's labor, and
by such act he must be held liable
for the subscription price.

Paste it in Your Hat

When there is a ball game out of
town, central is consulted as to the
outcome: when high waters are on,
central is kept busy answering num-
er questions; when kid around
town stubs its toe central is supposed
to know which toe. There are a
thousand and one things expected
of the girls at the board and they are
glad to serve you providing you show
them little consideration If any
one has a gronch on central gets her
share of it. She will serve you bet
ter if you speak kindly to her and
not growl at her. She has others to
serve as well as you who are just as
anxious. Show your bright side to
the girls at central and they will be
able TO give you better service

Kansas City Market Report

Kansas City Stock Yards, August
%, 1911.
Yesterdays heavy cattle supply
was not followed up with season
able run to-day, only the moderate
run of IA, 900 head coming in to-day,
including 1900 calves. to Is lower,
dealers united in saying good things
about the demand, which was broad,
and hungry enough to clean up the
good run. Steady prices prevail to-
day, and it don't look like anything
was going to happen this week now
to help buyers get into control of the
situation. Eight dollars is an estab-
lished figure now in the trading, this
price paid to-day for two loads of
Missouri cattle. Yearlings and heif-
ers brought s7.9O to-day, and not
notable sale yesterday was some win
tered steers off the grass at $3.50,
others at 500. These sales are evil
dence enough that prices on the best
cattle are in no danger Of suffering a
break. Short fed steers range from
Sc. 25 to $3.50. grass steers in native
divisions S4.60 to S6.65 for bulk of
sell at $500 to S4. Is fed cows up to
S5.25, bulls $500 to S4.25, veals up to
1925. A good run of quarantines
arrived yesterday, market a little
lower on most of the stuff, but still
better than last week. Bulk of the
quarantines sell at 81. 25 to S5. .25, one
five car drove of wintered Usage
steers yesterday at $500, 1149 lbs.
Five cars of these steers sold in St.
Louis same day at the same price.
Run Of quarantineS is small today
market steady. Recent rains have
reassured country buyers, and stock
ers and feeders are firm this week,
feeders at $3.50 to S5.S5, stockers
S3. so to S5.25. Packers continue the
bluff in the hog market, ana by stay
ing out of the competition with Ship
pers in the early market, they manage
to keep prices from advancing. Run
to-day is IL, 900 head, market steady
at the start, but the close was low
er, top S7.65, bulk, of sales S7.35 to
s7.55. A good many pigs under 100
lbs. are coming, which sell at "a. IS to
St. 90.
Sheep are holding up nearly steady
this week, lambs off 15 to 80 cents,
including a slight loss to-day. A lib
eral run of western stuff came in yes
terday, but run is smaller to-day,
5000 head. Country kinds are selling
stronger than anything else, feeding
wethers around $3.50 and lambs $500
Top fat lambs today brought S6.65,
wethers worth S3.40 to $3.50, ewes
1925 to s3.75. A big run at all the
markets from the Northwest is in
sight, which obscures hope of any
better prices in the near future.

Give Everybody a Square Deal

There seems to be some controversy
about the way and manner in which
the liabilities of the city are hand
led, or in other words, the way city
warrants are treated. The complaint
is that unjust and undue discrim-
ination is being used, that the coun-
Gil or its representatives are using all
the personal spite, malice and vicious
methods to try and spite some one by
discriminating paying warrants and
refusing to pay others.
We have no personal grievance in
the matter, but have heard some
very uncomplimentary remarks made
as to the mode and manner the city
council has of treating its finances
and credit. Some of the best supply
houses have expressed themselves as
not willing to do any more business
with the city. Commercial agencies
are making inquiry as to what the
real situation is, and one very re-
sponsible firm have given the council
the name of THAT Jim Crow Coun-
cil.''
We can only add that we are sorry
that the credit of the city has and is
getting into bad repute, all unnec-
essary, all done to work out some
petty spite or personal grievance.
The old council had made all the nee
essary arrangements to take care of
the city warrants and it's up to the
new council to do likewise.

Did Not Paw

Not a hundred miles from here is a
little town that is reported to be
steadily growing. 1t has good little
paper that is everlastingly on the
boost for its town, though its adver-
tising patronage is small. This week
we met a man from that town. He
said he was merchant there. He
said business was very dull, and he
was gloomy regarding its future.
The mail order houses sent great
many dollars worth of goods to the
town every week. He thought the
paper did not roast the mail order
houses enough. No, he did not ad-
vertise in the paper. 1t did not pay.
Anyway, he got good advertising in
circulation, as the wholesale houses
sent out circulars every once in a
while to list of names he furnished.
Didn't cost him anything but the list
of names. Yet, this man, who gives
no support to his home paper, uses
mail order advertising to exploit his
business, feels he has a genuine
grievance against the home paper be-
cause it does not lambast the mail
order business enough to suit him.
He evidently feels that advertising,
like salvation, should be free.-To-
