OFFERINGS LIGHT;
FAIR Blu YINC
RUMORS Of HOT WINDS IN KAN
SAS A BULLlSH EFFECT
~
ON MARKET.

Chicago, May 22.--Assertions that
the wheat crop in Nebraska in NebraS-
ka was going back and and rumors or
hot winds in Kansas had bullish Ell
feet here today. Firm cables and small
receipts counted too, in favor Of an up
turn. Offerings were light with fair
buying generally Of q commission house
character. The opening was a shade
to NC higher. July started at $1.0S$ to
$1.0S " GLOSS, gain of q sixteenth
to Nc and assembled to $1.O9es.
Statements that dust storms were in
progress in oklahoma and that plough
ing under Of wheat had been resumed
in Missouri frightened tie market yet
more. The close was strong with July
2A@2ssc net higher at $l.lO3s.
Serious reports OF corn failing to
terminate gave strength to the market
for that cereal. Better weather however
tended to make some traders take A
hesitating attitude at the outset. July
opened unchanged to Nc higher at IAN
to 74A and advanced to 1914 to 751ac.
Small receipts and slowness of plant
ing and big sales of cash corn added to
the f1rmness. The close was strong at
TIC for July, gain Of 2Ac net.
Oats followed the lead of other grain.
There was good general demand
de spite the gradual hardening Of the
market. July started unchanged to Nc
up at ASH to 40 and rose to 4SHc.
Falling off in receipts Of hogs west
resulted in a steady tone for provis-
ions. Shorts were purchasing on q
moderate scale. Initial sales rnaged
from 2k@5c lower to INC advance
with Sept. options $1s.52h to 1856 for
pork, s10S71a to $1,000 for lard and
$1O.37h for ribs.

To the Republican Voters OF Wapello
County:
Senator John T. Clarkson of Mon
roe county introduced in the senate at
the last session of the general assem-
bly, bill known as the Clarkson min.
ing bill which was revision OF the
mining laws Of the state. 1t was one of
the longest bills passed by the legis-
lature consisting of f1fty-two sections
and covering fifteen pages Of the ses,
sion laws.
1t was one of the most important
because it affected on one side the
working conditions Of the $4,000 min
ers of Iowa and on the other side the
immense investments of the mine
owners and operators. -
After passing the senate, this bill
came over to the house and was re.
ferred to the committee on mines and
mining. At hearing before this COM
mittee it was referred to a special
committee Of four of which l was
chairman.
! AS chairman OF the special commit.
tee I arranged for an extended hear.
ing on the bill and invited the repre-
sentatives of the Mine Operators as.

or of the BILL the state mine inspector
and VIM. Rodgers, president OF dis
trict 10 U. NJ. w. A. to be present
and assist in working over tho bill.
It was taken up section by section
and agreements were reached on many
points.
!. Where the interested parties were
unable to agree, each side stated their
views, stenographic notes were takeo
and the disputed points were adjusto0
later by the special committee.
After the work Of this special com.
mittee was completed the bill was

submit below a letter received
from Sen. Clarkson, author Of the bill.
Frank Shane
Senate Chamber, April II, 1911.
My Dear Mr.. Shane:
| wish to express to you my appre-
citation of your valuable service rem
dered the miners Of Iowa in your i'm
partial efforts for and In behalf Of SEN
ate file No. 2s2 commonly known as
the mining bill which had the honor
and pleasure of introducing In the sen.
ate. The care with which you investi.
gated the merits OF the measure while
pending before and considered by the
house committee on mines and mining
and your able presentation thereof
when placed upon Anal passage Will
certa' ly entitle you to favorable con
sideration by the employer and EN-.
ployes gagged in the mining industry,
Of this state. I beg to say that you
will never regret having expended
time and energy on the bill which will
now become the law OF this state
when signed by the governor, as
firmly believe 1t will be the means OF
conserving life and limb of those en-
LACED in the hazardous employment
of mining coal. This bill could not
have become law Of this state but
fer tn, untiring efforts OF yourself and
others IN the house when assailed by
those who doubtless believed the
measure as mischeivous but whom !
am satisfied will be convinced they
were in error when the law becomes
operative and In force few months
The measure Is reasonable exercise
of the police power Of the state to
prevent Injury to employees In the
mines, and it Is with pleasure that l
take the opportunity to thank you for
the interest taken when the bill was
in need of friends to assure its pas
sage.
H"' Very truly yours.
John T. Clarkson.

grocers say that the prices are lower
at the present time than they have

grocer of Ottumwa quotes the large

err at 1926 This makes the price, If
the fruit is bought by the crate, about
eight cents for the small ones and
eleven cents for the larger kind.
Some new potatoes appeared on the
