KANSAS CITY STOCK
MARKET.
o o o o 0 o'c.O 90 o o o o o
Rickart, Correspondent.

Kansas City Stock Yards, Jan. q
Cattle supplies last week were less
than requirements, and the market
took on good edge, together with an
advance of about quarter all around.
There was good action on everything,
and the moderate run of 5000 head
here today is smaller than was ex-
pected, in view of the encouragement
offered last week. Yesterday was
stormy all over the west, condition
against heavy loading in the country
and the run today is probably less
than it might have been had the wealth
| er remained good All the markets
have light runs, and the market here
| is strong to 15 higher. The cold snap
puts ginger into the demand, and un-
LESS there is a bigger run later in the
week than it looks like today, further
gains in price may be recorded The
feeling in the country is better than
any time before in the last two months
and it is believed that most of the late
gains, and whatever may be made now
will stick for a little while, anyway.
Best steers sold at $500, but there
were several lots at that price, and
bulk of the steers sold at $500 to $6.25.
Prime offerings would go up around
$3.50. Cows sell at $3.50 to $50 to
day, best heifers up to $500, veals at
$500 to $3.50, bulls s4OO to $500,
stockers s4.20 to $54o, feeders $4.75
to $555.
Hog markets have been running
along pretty even for week or two,
violent changes having disappeared al
most entirely lately, and the market
is on a more reliable basis. Strength
has dominated the situation for week
or more, advance last week about 10
cents, and the market higher today.
Run today is 5000 head, about one
thousand more than the early esti-
mate. The late market was the best
today, medium weight hogs up TO
T92h. heavies up to $3.50. lights
$7S5, bulk of sales at $3.50 and up
wards.
Supply of sheep and lambs last week
was light, 10000 head, and prices show
no net change for the week. Run is
5000 head today, market shade lower
on lambs. steady on sheep, Top lambs
today sold at $625, yearlings worth up
to $3.50 for light weights, wethers at
$4.O0 to $4.S5, ewes today at $3.50 to
I$40O. Total receipts last year were
one million eight hundred thousand
head here. gain of two hundred thou
sand head over 1909, the biggest prev.
ious year. Half a million head went
back to the country during the year as
stock and feeding stuff, also record
in that trade.

ARKANSAS IN THE LEAD.

The governor of Arkansas will sug-
gest to the legislature that the gov
ernor be given the power to revoke the
commission of any sheriff in whose
county occurs a lynching or where ex-
Iecution of any kind occurs at the
hands of a mob.
The Arkansas legislature has resist
ed a somewhat similar law for ten
years-ameasure recommended by the
bar association of the state providing
that when a prisoner, once in the
hands of the sheriff, is lynched. that
officer should ispo facto, lose his affice
land that he should be made ineligible
to reelection to the Office in Arkan-
sas. ~
1t is believed that the present sug-
gestion to leave the matter to the dis
erection of the governor may be ac-
cepted as compromise and that the
Legislature may adopt It as the first
stringent measure In a campaign to
eliminate mob law,
1t is a matter worth noting all over
this eouRtryFtbAt Arkansas is going to
set the other states an example in the
matter of abolishing lynehings and
that for ten years it has been thinking
out a practicable way of doing it,

1t is said President Taft has at last
tumbled to the belief that Oklahoma )
case is hopeless, and that it is nothing
more nor less than a southern state
whose republicanism is based solely on
the distribution of federal patronage
and where the loayes and the fishes
are not forthcoming there is nothing
doing. But Taft has always. had a
poor opinion of Oklahoma. 1t was he
who declared the Oklahoma constitu-
tion geological garden of cranks,
whatever that vague expression might
mean.

These people have not responded to
the call of civilization as they should
and as it was hoped they would. The
Cherokees in the hills are not as pros
porous as they should be and the cold
winter weather finds them poorer than
ever. Most of them still own their
land but are getting little from it.
