Bulk of the fat cattle supply this
fweek has reached Chicago Missouri
river markets have been light and no
lgluts are visible down east. Pittsburgh
and Lancaster are no longer filled with
Virginia cattle and only handful Of
Canadians have reached Buffalo. Chi
cagO had 80 cars Of cattle on the Lam
caster market Monday and they sold
well. A month back Ontario was ex-
GLIDING Chicago cattle at Lancaster.
Some Argentina beef Is reaching New
York, but last weeks imports have not
been repeated. Whenever "a steamer
direct from the River Plate reaches
New York that market will be full Of
Argentina beef, but as most OF 1t is in
the hands Of the big packers. they can
| be depended on to avoid decentralization,
which would be adverse to their own
interests. Every pound of imported stuff
displaces just SO much native beef,
however.
Judging from the move of cattle Of
late it is apparent that Chicago is the
center for fat beef. Receipts in the
east and at river points are falling off
and from the prices offered at Kansas
City today it is evident that packers
there are not overloaded with prime
beef. Kansas City overbid Chicago, the
price for prime fed steers there being
SS25@10, against $3.50 the top at Chi
cago. Other grades in proportion are
not far behind Chicago.
Eastward the demand for cattle is
showing strength such as had not been
had for weeks past, and this is a good
omen for a fairly satisfactory steer
trade ahead. Packers are carrying no
heavy beef stocks In the coolers and in
recent days a freer general movement
has been had.
A lot of people who own half finished
steers are DESTROYS of icashing them.
They have short corn stocks and are
loath to pay the high cash corn market
figures for new feed. Tendency is to
cash the steers on every hard spot in
the market and this weeks firmness in
values may result in an over grown
I'm Of short-feds at market early next
week. In this event recession of at least
part of the bloom the trade is now
wearing will be a logical turn in af
fairs.
Only a few Canadian cattle have
shown up at Buffalo this week and they
were mostly on the stocker order.
Canadian markets have gone to a parity
with American prices and buyers who
went to Montreal this week were I'M
able to get what they wanted. Toronto

ton. What sympathy can these mani
acs, for that is the only term appli-
cable to them, except from that great
body of Englishmen SO famous for
their sense of justice and common
sense? Naturally they regard them
with aversion. The militants appar-
emily are unable to profit by the ex-
ample of the women of the United
States, who have made more progress
in ten years than the militants will
make in a hundred, if they do not
change their tactics.
Sooner or later militant suffragettes

who will refuse to be intimidated, a
man who will treat them with no more
sympathy than the deserve. And when

Active Holiday Trade

Yesterdays bracing atmosphere had
fine effect on all branches of busi-
ness. 1t was especially stimulating
to the shopping trade. The warm
weather of the past two weeks had a
tendency to depress retail conditions.
1t caused decided lull in the coal
trade. But now the weather is ideal
for this time of the year. The volume
of business will be larger this week
than it had been in the whole month of
November.
While there has been a recession in
industrial operations in all parts of
the country, the payrolls of the Bir-
mingham district have kept up fairly
well. Christmas money will be in
plentiful circulation, and as the far
mers are notably prosperous this year
owing to the high price of cotton,
out-of-t town shoppers should be more
in evidence within the next two weeks
than ever before during holiday time.
The merchants have laid in large
stocks, and if this seasonable weather
continues they will not carry many
articles over to next spring.

Matters Calling for Reform

With his customary good sense Sec
rotary Houston of the United States
department of agriculture has recon-
mended to President Wilson the dis
continuance of a practice that has
long been abused. The Secretary
thinks that the custom of the free
distribution of seed should be abol-
ished and The Age Herald indorses
his recommendation.
The privilege of congressman to
mail to his constituents packages of
garden seeds has long been used for
political purposes. Secretary Houston
thinks that the department should do
more constructive work than the in
discriminate distribution of seed at
the beck and call of every politician
anxious to influence the 'fellows"
back home by the subtle influence of
something for nothing"
This matter has been almost but
not quite so badly abused by members
Of Congress as the franking privilege.
The telegraph frank has been taken
from congressman, the seed frank is
in jeopardy and the mailing frank
should be curbed.
1t is the tendency of some con-
gressmen, it seems, to take advantage
of the postoffice department. In 1912,
presidential election year, it was
claimed by the Postmaster General
that the huge deficit was caused by
the transportation of millions of
pounds of political matter sent free
under a congressman's signature.
Such things unquestionably call for
reform. The use of the frank should
be restricted to official business. 1t
has not been long since Alabama saw
the distribution of diatribe against
the majority leader of the House of
Representatives sent free of charge
by virtue of the fact that its author
was a member of Congress.

United state. Army Pay

81 have heard that Colonel Gaillard4

died recently, left no estate for his

that case and grant a pension to Mrs.
Gaillard, but there should be law

The English Suffragettes

Emmaline Pankhurst has again sue
ceeded in opening the gates of an
English gaol by means of hunger
strike. Seemingly the termagant suf-
fragettes have the British authorities
overawed, for the depredations of the
arson squad at Liverpool and Man.
chester Saturday were quickly fol-
lowed by the release of Mrs. Pank-
hurst.
Such methods are not the proper
ones to pursue to curb the lawless
spirit rampant among the female
fanatics of the lawless "votes for
women" army. In the interests OF
safety and law Mrs. Pankhurst should
have been made to serve out her SEN
tence. But it appears that militants
