PRINCIPALS OF PsorEcr1oN

- Britain has compelled Germany
Ito supply her own needs and has pre-
vented her from spending money
abroad. Now British Statesmen are
beginning to question the wisdom Of
that policy. and argue that It would

mitted to spend money abroad. thus
depicting her m0netary resources.
So far - the relative interests Of

cerned, the discussion IL Of no conse-
Quence to M, but It serves to empha-
size the soundness Of the principle Of
protection.
Shutting out foreign goods and
keeping money At home to pay for

prosperity. A protective wall accom-
plishes that end, whether the wall be
established by war or BY . protective

PooR BUSINESS

- .
Il ONE dine ago. when 1t was an
- nounced that Charles Schwab
was about 70 nll orders for subma-
rines and boats for the allies In this
country. such pressure was brought
to bear ON him BY the administration
and the peacs propagandists that Mr..
schwab decided to change his plans.
We now learn that the Electric
Boat company. in which Schwab 10
interested. has contracted to build
$50 high-powered gasoline launches
at $4,000 each. and these boats are
to be constructed In Halifax.
Thus . contract calling for $22,-
100000 u to be nlled outside the
United States. and NO part thereof
will 60 to American labor.
Moreover. had this contract been
carried out in the United States we
would soon have the manchinery and
the capacity to turn out submarines
and submarine antagonists-the pur-
pose for which these launches are to
be used-greater than that of any
other country In the world.
This IL another illustration of the
Administrations short-Eightedness.

Der Z, 1915. With the yards well
cleared last week, run of $4,000 cat
tie yesterday would have been ham
died at steady to strong prices, ex-
cept for heavy supply at Chicago.
This prevented any improvement on
beef steers, which sold weak to Is
lower, but other classes of cattle sold
strong in spite of lower reports from
Chicago. Today the run here is $1,000
head and trade is more active on all
kinds. prices steady to strong Christ
mas beeves are lacking so far, except
one load of near prime steers yester-
day, which sold at 50. rs, 1884 lbs av-
erage. Short fed steers sold up to
$40 today, and some choice yearlings
brought 80. %. Plain short fed steers
weighing 1900 to 1850 lbs are selling
at 500 to $3.50, and common beef
steers weighing 1900 to 1850 lbs are
selling at 800 to $3.50, and common
beef steers sell as low as Sc. So But
cher cattle have been selling steady
to strong for week, best heavy cows
at S5.75 to Sc. IS, and choice heifers up
to $500, common cows 1915 to 81 SO,
bulls higher this week, mostly at
$500 to $3.50, veal calves $3.50 to 50 90.
Demand for stockers and feeders is
strong, and prices are slightly higher,
especially on stock cows and heifers
A big string of Panhandle stock
steers, 1856 lbs average, sold yester-
day at S7.O5, good ones bring Sc. IS to
M al ero %
steers 1926 to 1915, stock
cows 81. so to $3.50, stock heifers S. so
to $3.50 Clean up shipments from
the panhandle ranges and from Color
ado are coming, although consign-
ments of fed cattle from the Pan
country will come all winter,
off the grass from there
this season being more than so below
normal because of plenty of feed for
winter handling.
Hog receipts today are 10000 head,
following the same number received
yesterday. The market dropped Is
to 25 yesterday, and it looked lower
at the start today, but there was
quick change for the better, and the
close was to 10 higher, top 1857 IL
bulk of sales 1918 to $3.50. Packers
led in the buying, and their change
of front was due to rise of 60 cents
in pork today, which more than re-
paired the loss of yesterday on that
commodity Latest statements of
product on hand are bullish, and in
dictate material is going into consump-
tive channels as fast as it can be
made. Money is cheap and packers
evidently find hogs good property at
present prices.
Sheep and lambs sold strong today,
top lambs 1886, yearlings $50, re-
ceipts 300 head. Advance shipments
of pea fed lambs are arriving from the
Monte Vistadistrict, and sold at So. 20
