sas and good roads was the chief
theme for discussion before the Kan
sas Good Roads association in its fif-
teenth annual convention which began
a two day session here today. Rep

and a demonstration of road Building
metho Is.
In his opening address today, O.
M White, president of the assoc:a-
ton, pointed out the need of the state
for more and better roads He urged
network of roads throughout Kan
sas, taking as his topic: THE State,
the Roads and Their Needs
Methods of raising money for roads
county cooperation in road building
legislative plans looking toward road
building, the value of improved high
ways to the farmer in his marketing
and in his intellectual growth were
among the subjects on the program.

Governor Did Not Know 1T Gov
cred Preparedness Brick.
Hastens to DenOunce Policy Of
National Administration.
FINDS HIMSELF OUT or Line
Republican Leaders Promise to
Give Aid to Wilson.
GalIinger Speaks for His Col
leagues in the Senate.

Governor Capper and his anti-pre-
paredness followers went to bed We'd
nesday night with the deep rooted
knowledge that they were a long,
long way from home, so far as the
national Republican party was con-
cerned. Endorsement of the presi-
dents general policies by Senator Gal
linger on behalf of the Republican
senators. left the Kansas governor
several miles from the camp of his
party and in danger of further embar-
raSSment when the national policies
are outlined in 1916.
The situation in Kansas is viewed
by politicians as one in which Cover
nor Capper showed undue zeal in be-
coming a leader. When the president S
general policy for preparedness was
announced, the Kansas governor walk
ed right out and took a good free
swinging kick at the entire program.
1t was concluded that since the presi-
dent is a Democrat that any policy
which a Democrat might advocate de-
served the condemnation of the Re-
pubHcans. So the governor walked
without waiting to hear it's details
outHned-and told the public that it
was bad thing.
Waited for Developments.
While Governor Capper was telling
the state and nation just how bitterly
he opposed any increase in the army
or navy, other Kansas politicians were
sitting quietly on the sidelines When
Senator Curtis went to Washington, he
declined to say a word about the pres
ident's plan. Other members of the
Kansas delegation did the same thing.
Senator Curtis indicated that the Re
publicans would talk it over. That
was all. Then reports came to Kansas
that the Republican national leaders
would not only support a reasonable
program for preparedness, but would
endorse the policy in the national
platform next year.
All of which may mean much en-
barrassment to the Kansas governor
His speech against national defense
has been printed and sent broadcast.
He was against anything the national
administration favored. Now he must
sit back and watch the Republican
members of the national congress Of
fer their assistance in framing the
program under the stipulation that the
military bill will not be drawn in eau
Gus Maybe later he must subscribe to
the provisions of a Republican nation
al platform endorsing at least a rea-
sonably strong system of national de-
lenses. All of which may leave the
governor in an attitude with his party
similar to that which followed his In
dependence speech endorsing the Pro-
greSSiVe party.

TODAY'S MARKET REPORT.

; Chicago, Dec. 9-WHEAT-Heavy specu-
lative selling broke prices in the wheat
pit today after early advance. The
initial strength was in sympathy with
higher quotations at Liverpool where an
improved demand was said to be notice
able. A fresh decline in bids for export
wheat at the Gulf of Mexico, however, act
ed handicap on the bulls. Opening
prices here which ranged from Ac to nc
higher. with December at $1161s to $1-163s
and May at S1171& to $1.173s, were fol-
lowed by drop to well below yesterday 8
finish.
Increased pressure from rural holders
and the slowness of eastern demand OPP
erated later against any material upturn.
The close unsettled at SO ac to 121
sc net decline.
CORN-Corn swayed with wheat. The
buying was of scattered sort. whereas
the selling was concentrated. After OPEN
ing 1sc off to &c up the markt underwent
moderate general sag.
Increasing stocks in the Northwest ex-
erted an additional bearish influence and
so also did assertions that Kansas reserves
were now moving freely. Announcement or
large export clearances, mostly domestic,
tended later to bring about rallies. Besides
France was said to be after wheat ON
the other hand late estimates regarding
the yield of Australia and Argentina We're
bearish The close was nervous, 1ac to ~
May at $1.163s.
OATS-Oats took the same course as
other grain. Trade was light.
PROVISIONS-Higher prizes hogs
visions, Liberal offerings by stock yard
interests, and by packers brokers caused
a subsequent down turn. The fact that
hog receipts throughout the west were
a great deal more plntiful than on the
corresponding day a year ago, counted
somewhat, enforcing decline.
