BULLlTT FOR CONGRESS.

Gentlemen of the Ninth dis
trlct Democracy, how does the
proposition strike on? To VA is
seems the sensible thing to do.
For years, Captain Joshua f.
Bullitt has lived among us and
demonstrated HIS manhood and
his merits. His record ia as
clean as the untroiden snow.
4on recall the fight he has
made for the purity of the bal.
lot. You recognize his unsur.
pnssed ability. Az speaker he
can hold the banner OF his par
ty above the heads Of anyone
the opposition can put into the
field.
Captain Bullitt stands un-
equivocoily for the rights of all
for the rights of the farmer,
of the miller, of the merchant,
OF the mechanic, of the miner,
OF the manufacturer, of the
mother in her home, of the
child i'll the school. He knows
the law in the statute books
and the law that should tie
there.
Just now, Captain Bullitt ia
leading a company of splendid
Southwest Virginia soldiers to
the border Of Mexico. He did
not plead the limitation of age
but like a brave aud patriotic
citizen, responded promptly to
his country's call.
If the war is an actually,
which seems certain when this
is written, Captain Bullitt viii
be in Mexico during the con
grossionnl campaign, defending
his country's homes and up
holding it's honor. This fact
viii send a thrill through the
district that viii mean his
triumphant election.

 KANSAS CITY STOCK YARDS, April 3.-As predicted at the close of last week, repair work was started to- day on the break of 25 to 50 cents on cattle effective then. Receipts here were 9,000 head. which was a sub stantial reduction from last Monday and offerings at the five leading West ern markets were l4O00 less today than week ago. This was enough to reverse the bearish situation, and advances were 10 to Is cents on all classes. Veal calves were an excep- tion and sold 50 lower. No choice steers were here today, and the top of Sol0 does not represent the full strength of the market Middle class natives sold at SS.40 to SS.S0, and the restricted supply of Western fed steers. possibly 25 cars, sold at SS.e5 to SS.S5, weights mostly under l,O0 pounds. The supply today had a rather small proportion of beef steers, but contained fair number of cows and butcher grades, which sold strong to Is higher. best COWS and bulls worth up to SS. yearling heifers S9.50. Stocker and feeder receipts were lib eral and prices were 10 to Is cents above the close of last week, but not quite as high as on last Monday. Choice heavy feeders sold at SS.50, and stock steers ranged from S7-25 to SS25. A feature sale was breeding heifer calves at S9.75. Action of the general cattle market today confirms the opinion that the situation is well grounded. and that the available sup ply for the next 90 or 60 days can be handled at firm prices.
 Hogs started out Is to 20 higher this morning. and improved through the session. selling g to 30 higher at the best time, receipts 7,000 head. Top price was So70, bulk of sales S9.35 to So.65. light hogs up to S9.6O. The sharp advance today only lacked 10 cents of eliminating the entire break of last week, and suggests that said break was forced. and not a true in dication of legitimate market condi- tions Rather liberal receipts of hogs are expected at the markets during April, although the supply at the five markets dropped off 26.O0O head today as compared with a week ago. and the bullish situation ilas doubtless caused many gilts to be put in the brood SOW class.
 Lambs and sheep sold slowly to- day and prices are Is to 25 lower, the market about 50 cents under a week ago. receipts 5000 head. Killers have given buyers positive orders to reduce mutton cost, based on depressed out let. On the other hand, available supply for the next month or six weeks is known to be light. and re- turn to stronger prices may be ex- pected.
