Senator Percy is taking advantage of
the fact that while the House of Con-
gress is acting on measures for which
the special session of Congress was
called, and the Senate is organizing its
committees, to do some campaigning in
Mississippi. He is showing to the peo-
pie that the Legislature made no mis-
take when it elected him as the sue
cessor of the lamented McLaurin. His
speeches are the speeches of states

PERTINENT QUESTIONS.

Major Vardaman closed his panegyric
of Senator Percy in his now famous
Commonwealth editorial by saying: ITO
such men as Mr.. Percy We must look
for the future goodness and greatness
of the republic. He is capable OF doing
great deal for his country, if only
his powers are properly employed" HIS
words have proven prophetic; the peo-
pie of Mississippi are doing the very
thing Vardaman admonished them to
do-to "look to such men as Mr.. Percy
for the future goodness and greatness
of the republic His powers are and
have been properly employed He has
made the best record during his brief
incumbency of the senatorship of any
man since the establishment of the re-
public in the same period of time. And
he is doing the state valuable service in
exposing and unmasking one Of the
baldest political mountebanks and char
latans of the age-the hero OF the con-
tingent and other trust funds. Yes, the
people s.are looking to Mr.. Percy for
the future goodness and greatness Of
the repahlic." He has been tried and
found true aud capable--an ideal statas-
man in the broadcast sense of the word.

Now, Mr.. Vardalnan, you did stay

SENATOR PERCY'S COMMITTEE
ASSIGNMENTS.

In the reorganization of the United
States Senate for tile special session OF
Congress, Senator Leroy Percy, of Mis-
sissippi, has been assigned to NUM-
Der Of most important committee places,
and to committees for which his abil-
tiles especially fit him. He is mem-
Der of the committees on Agriculture
and Forestry, Commerce, immigration,
Indian Depredations, Interoceanic Ca
mails, Joint Committee on the Revision
Of the laws and on the Expenditures of
the State Department. Being person
ally interested in agriculture and repre-
senting an agricultural people, Senator
Percy devoted much time to securing
the proper recognition by Congress Of
the needs of the agriculturists of the
South at the last session of Congress,
and hence his appointment on the agri-
cultural committee is q proper one, and
will place Senator Percy in a position
where he can be of even greater service
than heretofore to the farmers Of his
State and of the South generally. Be-
ing successful business man, his ap-
pointment on the Committee on Com
merce, and that of Interoceanic Canals,
is special recognition of his busi-
ness ability, while being placed on the
Committee on the Revision of the Laws
is a recognition of his great legal abil-
ity as well as his integrity and careful
attention to details.
The committee positions accorded Sem
ator Percy are great compliment to
him after years service in Congress,
and while he accomplished much dur
ing the last session of Congress, he will
be in position to accomplish even more
in the future. From any standpoint OF
real usefulness to the people OF the
State of Mississippi, it would certainly
appear to reasonable mind that Sem
ator Percy should be elected as his own
successor. And certainly the people
want the man in the Senate that can.
accomplish most for their interests.
The Tupelo journal. (Tupelo, Miss.) 1876-1924, 1911-05-05

Senator Percy's speaking tour of the
State during the past few weeks has
proven one continual ovation. Great
owds have greeted him wherever he
as spoken, and the enthusiasm shown
cln but mean that the people recognize
his worth and will endorse him at the
polls in the August primaries.

The WHEAT SITUATION.

| Here Is the way the wheat situation
looks to the editor OF The Minneapo-
| lis Tribune.
+ The wheat market is influenced
entirely by commercial conditions
Speculation is at the lowest ebb In
years for either the long or the short
accounts. Price changes have been
moderate. suggesting that the balance
between supply and demand is quite
closely adjusted.
The movement from the farms to
the terminal markets has been on a
fairly liberal scale but hedging in the
pit against those purchases has been
onset by millers buying the futures TO
meet the requirements of -four sales
Commercial activity to supply the do
nestle fiouF trade has been more pro-
nounced this month than any time
since the first OF the year, and while
orders have not been booked much be-
yond nearby needs, the indications
point to q broadening consumptive
market.
Unsettled weather has interfered
with a free movement Of wheat in the
northwest SO that receipts will be
much larger as soon as the opportunity
is offered to thresh and market under
normal conditions. Clearing skies
naturally, have led to anticipation Of
increased receipts and an easier ten
dency has been noted in quotations
the last week The poor quality of
the spring wheat makes 1t Imperative
TO keep the grain coming forward so
that the movement will be maintain
ca az the maximum. Under these
conditions the tendency OF prices will
depend upon the ability Of the con-
sumptive end Of the commercial mar
ket to absorb the increased offerings
The free movement of spring wheat
and the outcome of the Canadian
elections this week have increased
bearish sentiment and has, IL any,
thing encouraged short selling. The
collapse Of prices abroad as a result
OF better ofieial crop reports and the
financial strain growing out of the
Morocco complications have contrib
uted their share Of the bearishness
yet the domestic markets have dis
played considerable flrmness.
These features could not have bAen
resisted so well had the market not
been dominated by commercial con-
ditieuE
