There is practically no wheat market
for the reason that growers are not
making any offerings. If they were the
market would be weak. Indications Of
an unusually big crop are already hav'
ing bearing on the market, and it
looks as though the summit Of prices
had been reached Kansas alone, it is
estimated, will produce 150,000,000 bu-
shells of wheat this year, and the reports
from most of the wheat sections are
very flattering, Europeon reports are
to the effect that the crop will be above
the average. There is practically moth
ing doing in hops. Eggs are steady at
Is to 10 cents. Poultry is in good dc
mand with the suppl rather light, The
vegetable market is well supplied, the
supply coming largel$ from California,
though cauliflower and pie plant from

TWO PER CENT NEEDED
SECRETARY OF STATE oLCoTT
GIVES MANY FACTS REGARDING
PETITIONS OF CANDIDATES.

Secretary Olcott in response to an in.
quiry as to filing of petitions this morn.
ing gave out the following;
" Answering your favor Of the 10Th
inst. will say all candidates petitions.
as required by the primary law, must
contain not less than 2 per cent of the
party vote cast for members of CON
gress at the preceding general election
and represent signers residing in one
tenth of the precincts in each Of at least
seven counties,
at is not required that the repre-.
sentative vote in each of the precincts
shall be 2 per cent of the vote cast
therein; in fact but one signer from
each Of the required number Of pre-
cincts in each Of the seven counties is
sufficient for representing purposes,
but the total number of signers to the
petition must be not less than 9 per
cent Of the party vote, This balance
may be secured from precincts in any
of the counties Of the state
"It might be added that as we view
the law, its purpose appears to be that
candidates s petition shall show that
his nomination is desired by members
Of his party who reside in different sec.
tions of the political district, and that
after this requirement is met the bal
ance of the required number Of sigma.
lures may be obtained where it is most
convenient. 1t must, however, be
borne in mind always that a candi.
date $ petition must be signed by reg.
stered members Of his party in a nun.
Der equal to per cent Of the vote, ex'
