Evening Grain Letter,

Chicago. June 16.-Wheat: After
steady opening on reports of rain
southwest which caused shorts to COW
er, the market eased of closing about
7-8c lower for the July. Hedging sales
were again the weakening factor. The
greater part of the new wheat offer
ings have come from Nebraska, Illi-
nois and Kansas with fair mount from
Iowa. Oklahoma offerings somewhat
smaller. Statistical news bullish, but
ignored by the trade. 1t still looks as
if wheat will sell a great deal lower.
Corn-In the face of heavy realizing
sales of past two days the market has
shown considerable strength closing
unchanged on September while July Is

July and September corn on all soft
spots.
Oats-Have been easier with other
grains while trade has been extremely
light. We advise purchase September
at these prices.

What the Illinois Politicians Think

Raymond Robins. chairman Prosrcs-
sive State central committee Of Illinois
During the last few weeks | have
been in almost fifty counties in this
State and everywhere ! have met with
Progressive sentiment that has simply
astonished me. The result in this State
at the last Presidential election, of
course, showed that there were thou
sands upon thousands of Progressive
voters in Illinois, but just following
that election / left the country and was
gone a year, so that had no first hand
information with respect to how sub
stantlal the Progressive party move
ment was.
My plan Is to visit every one OF the
l02 counties in the State OF Illinois and
II find the sentiment in the counties
yet to be visited the same as those in
the counties where / have already had
an opportunity to sound Progressive
sentiment there IL no room for doubt
that proposition to amalgamate with
tho Republican party would be more
overwhelmingly defeated in this state
than was the Republican party in 1912.
Tho Progressives Of Illinois have
made UP their minds that there Is no
hope that either the Republican or the
Democratic party will give them real
progressive legislation. The Progress
slves OF this State are interested in leg
islation and not in Jobs. They want to
see expressed In statute law the prin.
cipies that they fought for In 1912 and

Republican and Progressive parties
practically agree. Most of these State
questions have been championed by
other parties than the Progressive. In
fact. Gov. Deneen and a Republican
General Assembly, several years ago,

Illinois in 1912
Tho Progressive party made big
showing in the Presidential election
because Of dissatisfaction with Re
publican party methods and because II
was believed that Mr.. Roosevelt could
be elected President. The rules re-
sponsible for the Objectionable methods
have been changed by the Republican
National Committee.

Fortunately, real progress,ves are not

sivc.
Tho sentiment that I ind among the
rank and file of the Progressive party

quont trips ! have taken recently into
other States. In all this middle Western
country there is no thought on the part
OF the members OF the Progressive party
to amalgamatc with any one. least of all
with the Republican party.
We believe that within a reasonably
short space Of time the Progressive
party Will be one OF the two great ma or
political parties in this country We
are confident that the Republican party
Is now almost n memory and that within
very short time II will have ceased
altogether to exist as a party. when
the final breakup comes thousands Of
progressive voters, who have remained
in the Republican party from reasons
OF sentiment and attachment to the old
party name, and In the hope that their
party might redeem itself and become
really progressive, will come to the con-
clus!on that their hopes after all have
been vain ones and will join with the
thousands who have already preceded
them into the Progressive party to make
that party one Of tho greatest In the

united action may by the success OF
those causes secure the onward and up
ward progress OF the nation.
Three Reasons Against Fusion.
Matthew Hale. chairman of the Pro-
gressive party in Massachusctts-I am
opposed to any amalgamatlon with the
Republican party for three reasons. In
the first place. such an alliance would
not accomplish it's only real purpose-
getting the oiiCes-since ma jority Of
Progresslves would vote the Democratic
ticket rather than join the Republicans.
In the second place, such an alliance
could not lie made without compromis-
ing our principles and without betray-
Ing those Democrats who have Joined
The Progressive party. In the third
place. such an alliance would stop all
chances OF splitting the solid South and
creating two great nation wide parties.
since the best brains OF the South will
never leave the Democratic party to join
a party allied to the Republican party.
Progressive Principles.
Joseph Walker. former Speaker Of the
Massachusetts House-The Republican
party in the state and IN the nation is
still dominated by leaders who hold in
contempt Progressive principles and
policies. \ victory FOR the Republican
party under these leaders would be a
victory for reaction and would he so
heralded throughout the country. Moth
ing could he more disastrous to the
whole Progressive movement.
II the majority of Republicans believe
in Progressive principles and policies
let them frankly adopt them in their
platform and let them accept in all sin
certify true Progressive leadership Then
and not till then can there he amalga-

The Progressive party Is the express
sion and the organization OF the great

which stands for new nationalsn. for
certain fundamental principles OF gov
eminent and for definite political, In
and social reforms. II seeks
victory not merely that II may dis

School interests to which Wash

to contribute, in addition to labora-

Among these social. athletic and

Fairgrounds.

d Commencement ices for flowers
ana music.
Glass pms for seniors.
This list does not exhaust the var
ious school interests and enterprises.
For their support contributions are
asked of pupils in all the high
schools. In addition. various nigh
schools have special features.
Il was explained by PRINCIPALS of
high schools that none o. the con-
tributionS are compulsory. But tho
pupils feel 1t imperative TO take
some part in school activities, or
they find themselves under u self
confessed stigma Of poverty, it is
asserted
Expenses Are Numerous.
Each of the high schools has its
school paper. The subscription for
the paper usually is fifty or seventy
five cents. The baseball. football,
and track interests are supported by
membership fees in the athletic as
sociations of the various schools.
These yearly dues, including admis-
Sion to the games, range from 81
to 81. In case pupils do not join
the association they must pay reg
ular entrance fees at the high
schoo! games.
OF course pupils taking part in
athletic activities must purchase
special suits and shoes, but COM
