associations, so far as it is possible
to accomplish this end by the ac-
tion of a national convention. But
the struggle Of privilege for privilege
is unending and omnipresent. That
struggle is as subtle as it is deter
mined. The struggle will not close
when Wilson is elected. We may
be sure that every effort he may
make as president to carry out the
progressive policies will meet with
stubborn resistance from the posses
sors and apostles of privilege. With
out loyal support from the progress
ives of the country Wilson's war
upon unjust privilege must be futile.
The progressives cause can succeed
only If 1t has loyal support from
the progressives. It can fail ouly
If the progressives fail in their
duty of giving to Wilson their full
support.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features of the Days Dealings in All
the Leading Stocks.

New York. Jan. lS.-In its apathy and
narrownesS the stock market of today
duplicated those of the preceding DAYS of
the week. Traders said the market was
waiting for something to happen. Moth
ing did happen and the leading stocks
stood still most of the day. Five min
utes before the session ended the bears
attacked the list concentrating on the
three market leaders. Union Pacific fell
To a point below Yesterdays close, but
Reading and United states Steel held
within small fractions of their preVfous
prices. The general market showed the
effect of the movement. but losses We're
small and the range OF prices at The
close showed only Insignificant changes
in most instances.
Some of the specialties broke away
from the remainder of the list and made
good gains. Those issues whose strength
and activity have made them the feat
ures of the week continued TO climb. This
was particularly true OF tobacco securi-
ties. American Tobacco pfd., American
Snuff pfd. and the Loriilard and Lis-
gett and Myers stocks rose one 10 two
points. Interest i'll the coalers Vas not
sustained on the same scale as earlier in
the week. although Central Railroad OF
New jersey rose four points TO 43o. Il new
high record. National Biscuit also reach
ed new record of li9 "a, 4 rise of 81.
The continued strength of the special
ties and dullness Of tie usual leaders led
TO increased interest in the less active
stocks Some issues which are seldom
traded I'm made pronounced gains. Among
them was New York. Chicago ST.
LOUIS =nu pfu.f NIitft Sdiliel dftti
Omaha. whose rise was q! New York
Central developed pronounced strength
and advanced more than a point The
local traction shares We're weak.
No one attempted to predict when the
markets dullness would end. Traders
took the view that with Presidential
campaign at hand and tariff legislation
under way. there We're strong influences
against any period OF sustained activity
for some time To come. Some disap-
pointment is expressed. moreover, at bus
mess conditions Although it is agreed
that there has been considerable i'm
provement i'm the steel trade which is
usually regarded as the barometer by
which the country's business may be
gagged. the Improvement has been less
rapid than was hoped for But sentiment
i'm the street can hardly be described as
pessimistic. 1t is rather suggestive of
a waiting attitude with some tamperng
of the feeling of optimism which devel-
oped toward the close of last year.
Interest in bonds was undated and
the bond market again had more than
usual proportion of the business transact
ed on the Stock Exchange. The market
was irregular. Realizing affected some
