Presidential Primaries

The enemies Of the primary system of nomination are
now having their little hour of exutaton They're makng
the most of the startling contrast between the exciting pr
contests which preceded the national conventions
1912 and the general avoidance this year of Instructions e
prssons OF preference or other commitments by the
which would prevent the national delegates from acng ON
their own best Judgment Because the voters have chosen
this to forego the full of their power under the
primary SYSTEM critics of the system boasting that the
country tired of it and ready to return repenantv
the old order Of party government from the top We do
not believe that such boasting is justified.

promptly collared and dragged to lit
tie table behind which sat an officer
with lots of pen and ink and paper.
ENERGETIC COMPETITION.
The different companies grabbed re-
cruits like politicians grab voters in a
city election. When a prospective re-
cruit appeared at a companys doorway
he wasn't coaxed or persuaded He was
very promptly jerked inside the room
and told in clear tones to make up his
mind in a great big hurry-that he
was in the>fight room and that it would
never do to join any other company
that it was the only company in the
entire regiment and if he didn't believe
il he could ask that busy man behind
the desk.
AS soon as they passed the physical
examination the recruits hurried to the
qUartermaster's department where they
were supplied with uniforms. There
were uniforms in profusion-campaign
hats, shoes, leather puttees, belts. There
were uniforms for long men and uni
forms for short men, fat men, tall men.
And as the recruits enlisted and
donned their olive drab shirts they be-
gan to chatter about the swell jobs
they'd tossed up to enter the service
of Uncle Sam. Here was a ribbon clerk
in a dry goods house, and here was a
plumbers assistant, and here was
linotype operator, a milkman, book
keeper, a druggist, a carpenter, soda
jerker.
There were but few turned down. A
Zig, raw-boned fellow from Fairburn
was rejected Monday night because of
the size of his family. This man told
the recruiting officer that he had nine
children and that all of them were too
young to work,
A man VINO had been making SO a. day
as a painter hung around the armory
all day Monday only to be turned down
when examined physically. steady
stream poured into the doctors office
throughout the afternoon and night. At
o'clock Monday night the line was
fifteen deep.
The canteen did great business be-
cause OF the agitation. Sergeant H.
Snort declared that he sold more drinks
and cigarettes Monday night than he
had in months. He heard more gossip,
too. He said that everybody who was
talking really wanted to go to Mexico.
An eighteen-year-old boy. who had OBJ
tanned the consent of his guardian to
enlist, was refused by Captain Weaver
Monday night because the recruit had
little sister who wasn't willing to be
left behind. The boy had bravely walked
into the presence of Captain Weaver and
told him that he wanted to enlist, but
little ten-year-old girl chung to his
sleeve. oh mister. please don't let
bu'ther join the army" she begged. He
lives with me and our mothers dead
and l don't want to be by myself.
Please, mister, 1 don't want bu'ther to
go off"
Captain Weaver advised the youth to
think it over, and the enlistment was
postponed.
Captain S. P. Cronheim. of the quar-
termaster's department, says that he's
badly in need of recruits for his de-
partment. IT want them to enlist Tues
day." said Captain Cronheim Monday
night. i've got places for two cor
porals detailed as wagon master. They
will receive $50 a month. 1 also need
one cook and two saddlers. two horse
shoers. one blacksmith and twenty-one

YOUKER TO TAKE
STAND IN TRIAL OF 0RPET
State Claims Engagement of
Couple Furnished Motive for
Killing Lambert Girl
nv Associated Press.N

wAUKEGAN, Ill, June 21.-Miss &C.
leste Youker, an instructor In the De-
Kalb, Ill. normal school. announced as
the final witness for the state against
Will H. Orpet, charged with the murder
of Marion Lambert, was expected to
furnish a link in the chain of circum-
stantial evidence States Attorney Dady
is attempting to forge around the for
mer University of Wisconsin student
when the trial was resumed today.
In is believed that she will testify
that she and Orpet were engaged to be
married at the time of the death OF
Marion Lambert, his former sweetheart.
This engagement if it really existed,
is said to be regarded by the states
attorney as establishing a motive for
the crime which il is alleged was COM
mitteed by Orpet.
With Miss Youkers testimony before
the jury the prosecution will rest Its
case Attorneys for the defendant II
is announced, viii ask the court 10 take
the case from the jury, failing in which

Judge Donnelly was still unprepared
TO-DAY TO rule on the competence or IN
counDetence as evidence or the Garner
letters Of Orpet to Marion Lambert.
Judge DonneIly said the letters were so
prejudicisl 90 Orpet, as plainly indlcat-
ing seduction, that il would be danger
Gus 10 submit them TO the jury.
Argument on this point and the ad-
instability of other evidence threat
ened to make il impossible for the pros
ecutiOn to conclude today.
Everett Friganza, reporter, who had
various interviews with Orpet, was re-
called.
"Orpet told me that he met Marion in
Helms woods TO tell her their friend
ship had ceased-that he was through"
declared the witness. "He said they
walked together. She stopped and he
walked on. When he looked back she
had fallen in the snow"
Friganza asked Orpet if he were en-
gagged to Celestial YOuker
HE said they were practically en-
gagged" said the witness. He asked
me not 20 drag her name into the case.
He admitted that his relations with
Marion were Illicit. He said it was a

Friganza said he found il difficult to-
reach Orpet afterward. and had himself
arrested and thrown into jail with the
accused on February 20.

Il asked Orpet If he had disposed of
the bottle which contained the potassium
cyanide. He said. no.

SOLDIERS TRADING
SURPLUS TRINKETS
FOR 'UNCLE'S' CASH
Watches, Cuff Links and Even
Palm Beach Suits "Soaked"
for Coin of the Realm Which
Carries Easier

Possibly it's a longing for Mexican
tamales or a Carranza cocktail after a
hard hike, or maybe It's a desire for
70 the folks, but very likely it's Just
a plain old-time lack of lucre that is
sending the boys of the Fifth to their
uncles with everything pawnable.
Uncle Sam gives them food, clothing
and lots. of other things, but this
doesn't seem enough. The invasion of
Mexico cannot be accomplished without
little pewter. No self-respecting mill
tiaman would think of going down with
out a kodak to catch a snapshot of the
capture of Villa or a bull fight or a
picture CO himself standing by a cactus.
But these boys who buy are in the
minority or maybe they have been with
the majority just before making the
purchase.
Watches go first and fastest. Evil
IDENTIFY time is not important to Uncle
Sans boys. Stick pins and cuff buttons
are now useless luXuries, to say nothing
of other personal adornments-so they
so.
One of the khaki boys-he was
sergeant, with a sorrowing face and
tagging step-passed under the sign of
the three balls and approached the I'M
Gle. He had a watch, a good watch, and
he needed a pair of field glasses. Pass
ing over a somewhat lengthy period OF
low rating and general pickering, the
sergeant passed out with the pair of
binoculars swung over his shoulders.
The uncle grinned a greedy grin and
registered the exchange. Other militia
men pushed in and out buying and pawn
ing, mostly pawning. One was looking
for a bugle and another wanted to get
rid of a palm beach suit and pair of
black shoes.
A private was trying to pawn a set
of dress studs when he was rudely
pushed aside and the sergeant who had
pawned the watch almost jumped over
the counter.
Gimme that watch just minute,
wantacher? I'll let you have it right
back" he was pleading with the broker.
II just want one more look at it, that's
all"
Il don't like this, but here hurry up
with that watch" and the broker handed
iC over
Feverishly the sergeant opened the
back, slipped something from it, handed
the watch back over the counter and
was out on Decatur street like a flash.
He had come back for THE Girl He
Left Behind Him."

GENERAL TONE OF
 BUSINESS STEADY
Many Producers Have Sold Up to First Quarter of
 1917 and Welcome Lull

New York. May 26.-Dun's review to morrow will say:
 Continuing remarkably prosperous, business has gained in wholesome char acteristics through the recent cessa- tion of price advances in certain com modities. Sustainment of consumptive demand in unprecedented volume with costs rising rapidly has been an eco- homie phenomenon for months past, but that ultimately a point would be reached at which buying would slacken was obvious. Evidences of abatement are by no means general and nothing indicates diminished purchasing power, yet in branches where forward require ments are already largely provided for some hesitation with shrinkage in new orders is natural. Such symptoms be- come more apparent in steel and iron, though foreign contracts remain note worthy and a few materials and prod ucts are yielding, with premiums for prompt shipments less frequent. This does not imply that the great basic ln- dustry has receded from it's exception ally strong position most producers are covered far ahead, in some ln- stances into the first quarter of 19lI and view the lull in domestic business with equnimity if not with indiffer- ence Manufacturers in other impor- tant lines are similarly situated.

COTTON PRICES
 l. REACHLOW GROUND
Favorable Weather Reports and Increased Acreage
 Cause Decline

New York. May 2s.-The cotton market was less active today and fluctuations were
 irregular An early decline carried July contracts off to 12.7lc, or into new low
 ground for the season, but rallies tol-
 lowed, with that position selling up to
 F ,S5c and closing at 12.7ec. The general list closed steady at a net decline or 1
 point on June, but generally unchanged
 to points higher.
 The market opened steady at an ad-
 vance of points to a decline of 1 point,
 and quickly eased off under renewal of liquidation and scattering pressure, inspired by the favorable average of weather and crop accounts. July liquida- tion was particularly in evidence and the difference between that month and Oc- tob CT widened out to about 10 points, with the general list selling some 3 to IS points net lower during the first few minutes. There was a good demand around 12.7Sc for October and F. 93c for December however, and prices rallied later on covering and a renewal of scat tering bull support. October sold up to 12 .95c and December to 13. 10c during the
 middle of the afternoon, with active
 months generally showing net advances of from to IA points.
 The failure of the good weather to bring in greater volume of selling orders seemed to be a disappointment to recent local sellers, and the tone showed a con- siderable improvement during the early afternoon, but closing prices were 9 to 10 points off from the best, under real izing. Yesterdays rumors of private acreage and conditions figures were con- firmed, showing an increase of 12.7 per cent in acreage and placed the condition at SO.6 per cent compared with the off cial 10-year average of 79.S per cent This probably was factor on the early de- cline in connection with the favorable showing of the weather map, and there
 was some scattered southern selling here
 during the day.
 Liverpool buying helped to ab sorb the
 early offerings and the market again met moderate demand from trade sources on
 the decline below 12. soc for October. The
 presence of this buying doubtless prompt
 ed the tendency to cover short contra cts
 for over the weekend, while some of the
 local buying on the rally was accom-
 panied by talk of strengthened tech
 nical position after the heavy liquidation
 of the past few days.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1916-05-27
Ayerv's Letter

Further liquidation of the July option was the feature of the day in the cotton market.
 There was some evidence that some of the July's sold were being transferred into August.
 The market looks to me to be liquidated. And it would not be surprising if good sized short interest had accumulated The prevailing weather over almost all of the belt is ideal for cotton and as such is bearish as regards the new crop.
 The weekend statistics were bullish. showing II S06, 600 bales as having gone into consumption and an intoslght of, only Il ,6l6,00O. Showing that rapid inroads are being made into the available supply.
 No doubt some of the present pressure
 is an effort in the direction of trying to depress spot prices or if this does not succeed to at least hold present prices
