CHICAGO. June 12.-Excited buying Of
oats today ran up the price Of that
cereal and largely controlled the action
of other grain. The offerings Of oats
were unusually small at the outset. To
such an extent was this the case that
shorts became alarmed, and in an effort
to cover developed a general furry which
took the market to q higher level in
double quick time. Opening figures were
u of to Nc up. July started at BIN to
3S3s. an advance OF Y to n. and rose to
SSA.
Cool weather and rains, together with
bearish cables, made wheat weak at
first. but the bulge in the oats market
turned sentiment somewhat the other
way. The fact. too. that world ship
ments proved less than expected furnish
ed a little help to the bulls. Initial
prices were u lower to y up. July
opened at ssh to SSH. the same change
from Saturday night as the market taken
on the whole. A rally to 1874 followed.
Corn was swayed chiefly through SYM
patty with oats. Trade, however did
not reach heavy total. July started n
off to Y up At b4x to IS, and climbed to
55A.
Provisions eased q tPfne with hobs but
received good support, apparently from
packers. First sales were q shade to 5
lower, with September delivery 14.921h
for pork, $50 for lard and BIS for ribs.

WHAT WILL THE COURT DO?


When the United states supreme
court passes upon the constitutional
its of the oregon system the country
viii find cut whether the court STANDS
for a government Of the people, by
the people for the people" or for
government by political bosses and
their machines in behalf of the privi-
legged interests they serve.
Law is not an exact science and
whether or not the oregon system is
constitutional is purely a matter Of
construction. The court may take
narrow and technical view Of the mat
tei and rule that the initiative and
referendum conflict with the form Of
government prescribed by the consti-
tuition
But the public welfare plainly calls
for a liberal construction and for the
endorsement Of the oregon system. Di-
rect legislation furnishes almost the
only effective remedy for government
al ills that have prevailed during re-
cent years In Oregon the enactment
os the initiative and referendum
marked the beginning Of truer popu-
lar government. Quickly upon the
heels Of the initiative and referendum
came the direct primary law, with its
provision for the direct election Of
senators, the corrupt practices act
and the other measures Of a similar
nature.
None Of Oregon's reformative meas
ures would have been possible with
otu the Initiative and referendum. An
Old time legislature would have
laughed with scorn II asked TO pass
direct primary law or a corrupt prac-
tices act. The old time boss-chosen
legislators looked with disdain on the
plan for popular election Of senators.
They preferred to elect senators in
the old tima,way-by secret wire pull
ing and corruption. They preferred
the plan under which needed votes IN
2 senatorial contest were purchased at
So much cash per vote with whiskey
and hot air thrown in.
Of the efficiency Of direct leglsla-
ton there can be no doubt. Nor
should it worry a Judge 10 construe

Thus Tar the big railroad strike ha,
ryc produced serious results. But the
situation becomes more ominous each
day. The union sentiment seems
strong among the workmen and the
trainmen are plainly disposed to aid
the striking shopmen. Unless a set

Inevitable that a general strike will
be on and general strike of the en-

COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK. August 23.-The cotton
market opened steady at an advance OF i
point on August, but from l to points
lower on later positions. under scattering
liquidation or local pressure inspired by
lower cables. less favorable reports of the
English labor situation and talk OF better
weather in the southwest. There seemed
TO be q little demand from August shorts.
and while only a few hundred bales were
wanted. the price sold up to a net advance
Of 6 points during- the early trading IN
the absence of offerings, while later
months fiuctuated irregularly within
or points of last nights closing prices.
General business was qua ct during the
entire morning. but the strength Of Au-
gust seemed to exert some sympathetic
influence on later deliveries. and while
there was no change IN general news. the
new crop worked up TO a net advance of
1a2 points late in the forenoon on cover
ing of shorts and little buying by Iiv-
erpool.
Old crop bulls were credited with selling
of August around II. 80, or about IL points
net higher. supplying the demand from
scattering shorts. and the market at mid
day was quiet, with the general list about
1 to 10 points net higher. The western
belt forecast was considered favorable,
but a good many private deterioration re-
ports based on recent dry hot weather
In todays forecast seemed to be reach
ing the market and causing continued
nervousness as TO the showing of the Sep
tenber bureau. Spot, nominal.
