WORKINGS OF THE DEMOCRATIC
 ADMINISTRATION MADE PUBLIC
DETAILS OF "INSDE" NATIONAL ARE SHOWN CLEARLY IN THE EXAMINERS WASHINGTON LET
 TER; WILSON IS FORCING ANTITRUST LEGISLATION THROUGH

WASHINGTON, D. C., June s. Special to the Yuma Daily Examiner by J. E. Jones)-The following notes will give the general public a fair idea of national affairs, political and otherwise, as seen by one on the in- side, the Yuma Daily Examiner spe- cial correspondent:
 Satisfy the Conscience of the Country
 The President and Congress are not of the same mind, for Congress would cut it's job short and adjourn. In the way of compromise the Senate com mittee on interstate commerce sug- gested to the president that it would pass the bill the administration has to create an interstate trade commits sion, and leave it to that commission to find out what kind of an additional is the purpose of the proposed new organization to look after every phase of the trust question. This would give | Congress a chance to adjourn, and adjournment is urged in order that the country may be given rest from Congress.
 But President Wilson dissents, and
 insists that the measures controlling he different phases of the trust ques- ton must be passed. In answer to | he statement that there is a great business depression in the country, the president admits that he is aware of the existence of such a condition, put that it is merely psychological
 The president adds that he believes he best thing for business would be | to complete now the administration s antitrust program, and thereby make clear to the country just what laws would regulate business in the com Ing years.
 President Wilson says nothing is
 nore dangerous to business than "un certainty" and declares that it has become evident through a long series of years that a policy such as the | Democratic party is now pursuing was | absolutely necessary to satisfy the l he conscience of the country and it's perceptions of the prevailing condi- 1itions of business; therefore, with this purpose firmly fixed now, as it 1 nas been since the beginning" of his | administration, President Wilson in sists that the "boys on Capitol Hill'' lave a plain man's-size job cut out or them, and he wants them to "do
 t now"
 The boys do not feel that way | lbout it; and, therefore, it remains o be seen whether they will become

After three months the members were back in Washington at their task; and the regular long session which drew itself out over 1912, held the members until August. The presiden- tioal campaign was on, and there was great anxiety on the part of members to bring the session to a close, but their efforts did not succeed. Con- gress again reconvened in December, and was given another breathing spell of month after March 4, 1913. On April 7, 1913, Congress began it's ses- sion, and with the exception of the Christmas holidays recess of three weeks, has been constantly in session. Within the last four years, Congress has been in session considerably more than three-fourths of the time. The present session is the longest on rec ord. Indications are that there will be no more short sessions of Congress, and that the members of the two houses of Congresses will have to cut their cloth to remain in Washington nearly all their time.

Furnishing Harvest Hands

In addition to it's other methods for helping run the business of the country, the government has become an employment agency, and the De- partment of Labor at Washington is helping to supply 85,000 men for the harvest fields of Oklahoma, Kansas and Missouri, where this work will be- gin June 15. Following this demand Uncle Sam will help to get laborers for Minnesota, the Dakotas and other states.
 Last year the secretary of the treas ury announced that he had $50,00O,00 to help move the crops, and this money was distributed for use in diff ferent sections of the country. The government expects to help in finan cing the crop movements again this season. Thus it appears that the Yankee government" is always find ing new ways to help the people of our country.

The Greatest Man in Washington

me STcdIcSt m an In WdSninAtON
 The national capital is the natural gathering place of the celebrities of the nation. Many people would infer that the president was the greatest man in the capital, but that is not the Washington viewpoint. Have you ever heard of Walter Johnson? We'll, he is it-and his name is always in the pink sheet, or sporting section.
 Walter is perhaps the greatest ball pitcher in the country, and it has been largely due to his successes that Washington has became stark mad over baseball. The whole town is now discussing the question as to wheth- CT there is to be Sunday games of baseball, thus bringing up an issue hat is nationwide, for while the ad- vocates of the Sunday game declare that it is in keeping with this pro gressive spirit of the times" that we are hearing so much about, the oppo- nents of the Sunday game say that the recognition of such a thing in the capital of the country would be unpar. donable from the viewpoint of all Christian decency.

Average Price of Farm Products
 The Department of Agriculture breaks the good news that the average prices paid for hogs and sheep are trifle lower this year than last. This is offset by the fact that there has been a slight advance in the farm price for beef catle. However, as eff fecting the high cost of living, it is interesting to note that the price of potatoes, paid to the farmer, May 1, 1914, averaged more than seventy-one
 cents a bushel which is more than twenty-three per cent higher than the average price of the year before.
 Apparently, farmers are obtaining on an average less for their butter this year than last, and slightly more for eggs and chickens The average price paid to the farmer for butter on May 1, 1914, was 23.8 cents per pound, which was three and two-tenths less a pound than the average price paid on May 1, 1913. The average farm price for eggs on May 1 was about seven cents a dozen higher than the year before. Chickens were seven cents pound higher in 1914 than in 1913.
 The contrast in prices in given sec tions of the country are so great that the figures giving the average price furnish but little idea as to what eff feet changes in prices have upon the general cost of living. For instance, butter in April sold for thirty-three cents pound on the farm in New England, and twenty-five cents in Georgia. On top of this comes the jobbers commission and retailers fix the prices as best they can according to the condition of local markets.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features of the Days Dealing in All

New York, May 27.-Mexico was of
more effect on the stock market today.
Official advices were quite generally ac-
cepted as tending in the direction of
settlement of that unhappy situation,
and private cables received by bankers
with influential foreign connections serv-
ed to strengthen that conviction.
The local list followed London's lead,
that market recording a majority of SUBJ

early movement was one of steadily ad-
vancing prices, Canadian Pacific show

mated Copper were more than ordinarily
active at gains OF a point or thereapoutS

reports of a resumption of dividends,

Dealings in the first two hours were
far in excess of the preceding day s
whole session, but fell away materially
in the afternoon, when business lapsed
into its former stagnant condition ana
prices showed a disposition to recede
from their best.
Steel trace authorities were quoted as
expecting increased business in the last
half of the year, but were doubtful as TO
any improvement in prices Relative
backwardness of coppers was ascribed to
further shading of metal quotations.
