Mornino Grain Letter.

Chicago. Jan. 5.-Weekly forecast is
for an increase in winter weather
more snow likely. Newspaper reviews
are more friendly to wheat. but be-
lieve the question of free wheat from
Canada Will restrict advance. Rec
ord-Her:ild says vast amount of wheat
has zen exported by northern Russia
which fails to show up in the Russian
export totals. Some OF these north
ern Ru STA exports, however, must
occur every year Primary receipts of
wheat last week were smallest since
July last. Wheat visible may decrease
and can hardly increase seriously.
Primary receipts and shipments of
corn last week were about the same as
last year when the visible increased
about 100000. Chicago received 2,900.-
600 corn last week and shipped 1900
Corn gossip takes a bear form. There
is endless talk C the giant Argentine
corn crop and the big cut in corn feed
ing due to the mild winter. The east
continues to defer its heavy corn pur-
chases and believes this is one of the
seasons when a slow buying attitude
will win out. More hedging of long
corn during bulges seems certain. Best
help fer bulls that can arrive will be
near let-up in country shipments. Oats
gossip is bearish. May oats fail to
hold their advances and the enormous
short interest in May oats remains
unchanged. Provision news indicates
presence of present price levels all

FOREIGN NEWS

London, Eng1and.-The liberal party
which recently celebrated the eighth
anniversary of its return to power
now has the honor OF leading the af.
fairs of the British empire for a long.
er consecutive period than any party
for nearly hundred years. Premier
Asquith has been in Office for
over five and a half years and in
April next, if his government survives,
he will approach the record of Lord
Salisbury, whose second term of Of
fee lasted just seven years.
In his recent tour in Lancashire Mr.
Asquith referred TO his long term and
the stormy times that his government
has weathered. Certainly it has been
an almost continuous fight. Finding
early in his career that the house of
! lords would not pass any of the legis-
/ lation that his followers had set their
hearts on, Mr.. Asquith, with courage
which even his political opponents
credit as strong, undertook to clip
the wings of the upper chamber by re-
strictinS its power of veto. That ac-
complished, he set about passing the
home rule and Welsh disestabfish-
ment bills, which next session are to
come up for the third time, and no
matter what the attitude of the house
of lords is, viii become law. The
government will then press to get the
bill. to put an end to plural voting

then go to the country for an endorse.
ment of what it has done and a man.
date to carry licensing, educational
and land reform.
The liberals, therefore, have as
much ahead of them as they have ac-
complished in their eight years of OF
fee.
When the party came into power in
1906 Mr.. Balfour, then prime minister,
found that bye-election after bye-elec-
ton was going against him and he de-
cided to resign. He chose this course
instead of dissolving the house of
commons. because he believed that it
would be either impossible for the lib !
erals to form cabinet. on account of |
the split which had occurred over the |
South African war, or if one was |
formed il would be such as would |
weaken instead of strengthen the lib !
eral. party. He had been badly in /
formed. Six months before this a I
meeting of liberal leaders had been /
held at which all differences were sunk
and the composition of Sir Henry
mpbell-Bannerman's cabinet prac-
tically decided upon. When Mr.. Bal
tours resignation was announced,
therefore. the liberal leader was able
TO inform the king that he could ac-
cept the task OF forming a ministry,
which he did forthwith. and the party
in the following January won an I'M
precedented victory at the polls.
Paying members OF parliament So
BOO a year, as has been done under
new law during the past year, has
been selected in many constituencies
as a point OF attack against the lib
eral government, which is responsible
Tor the act.
