Chicago. Aug. 6.-Altho wheat prices
today made new high records for 1916,
the upturns were not well maintained.
Buyers displayed more caution than
has recently been the case and there
was a manifest greater disposition to-
ward week end sales to realize profits.
The fresh advance today was caused
chiefly by assertions that all wheat for
fifty miles north of Regina, Sask.. was
more or less infected with black rust.
Opening prices, which ranged from q
to cents higher, with September at
1854 to 1856, and December at 1S9 TO
1894. were followed by reactionss
which carried the nlarke. well under
yesterdays finish.
Later the market rallied owing to
signs Of buying on the part of export
ersIt was said 100000 barrels OF flour
had been sold to Great Britain. The
close was unsettled. AGas TO p net

cen5er at 1855 @1.3S55.
Corn.
Dry hot weather turnout most of the
Prices eased off somewhat, tho, when
wheat turned weak. After opening 3
TO cents higher, the market steadied
at moderate setback from initial top
figures.
g Crop damage reports from the south
west led afterwards TO another up
ward swing in prices. The close was
strong at rs to cents net advance.
Oats.
Oats were governed by the action OF
pther grain. There was no pressure

Provisions hardened because Of
Gghtness Of offerings. Buying, how
ever. was only OF a scattered sort.

LETTERS FROM THE
PEOPLE
Algiers. La, Sept. 5, 1916.

Algiers. La, Sept 5, 1916.
The Algiers Herald, City:
Gentlemen-Some days ago a presi.
dent of one of our big railroads. made
statement that the eight-hour de-
mand OF the railroad men was arro-
CANT, excessive and ruthless. A few
days later wnen the strike was called
of, he made the following statement:
L am sorry the strike has been called
OF and also sorry that the question
had not gone TO a critical test" If
one OF the employees made such a
statement he could easily be excused
on account of his ignorance, but when
a man of his standing, who has gone
through all the colleges of this coun.
try, makes a statement as above, he is
not only affected with arrogance, ruth.
lessness, and eXcessiveness, but is in
my estimation tainted with insanity,
for a railroad president to be sorry
that the whole nation was not thrown
into an almost civil war is a proof to
the American public that he has not
the interest of the nation at heart, but
is only looking at the question from
the dollars and cents side of it. I
would suggest that lunacy commits
sion be appointed to examine this
presidents mind and if he is found in
sane we will excuse him for the state
ment, but will request that lunacy
commission to remove him from the
public on the grounds that he is a dan
gerous man to be allowed at large.
This statement is made for the benefit
Of the public, in this locality that
might have time to read it.
Veery truly yours,

Hughes and Roosevelt

Charles Evans Hughes, having first
resigned as an associate justice of the
United States supreme court, accepted
promptly the Republican nomination
for the presidency in a letter that
strangely anticipated the condition
under which Theodore Roosevelt inti-
mated he might be moved to withdraw
his tentative declination of the Pro-
gressive nomination for the same Of
flee. Read in the light of the Hughes
acceptance. the Roosevelt declination,
If made absolute, as we believe the
country hopes, in the interest of con-
cord, 1t shall be, cannot lack for rea-
son and full justification. THE attf-
tude of the candidate OF the Republi-
can party toward the vital questions of

welt at the time his letter was dis
patched to the waiting convention in
the Chicago Auditorium, as a matter
of fact was already being set forth
with such clearness and earnestness
and vigor as must have later chal-
lenged the admiration of the hesitat-
ing man on Sycamore Hill. It would
be difficult to discover wherein the
citizen. just self -divested of judicial
robes and released by the President
from the rigor of judicial etiquette,
failed to express and with all the full
ness and firmness the occasion called
for, concurrence with the highest
ideals in politics and craftsmanship.

and as member of the highest judi
cial tribunal in the republic. it must
be assumed we think meets the most
eXacting requirements of the Progress
sive party. The platform upon which
he has decided to stand is one adopted
almost in duplicate by the Progressive
party. The letter in which he has ac-
cepted the Republican nomination, in
addition to repetition of sentiments
that have become familiar to the Am
erican people through the utterances
OF woodrow Wilson, as well as
through the utterances of Theodore
Roosevelt, contains in addition what
amounts to a pledge that no "brave
words" from his pen or tongue shall
be stripped of their force by indecis-
ion"; that If elected and supported in
his policies he will stand for IAN Amer
icanism that knows no Interior pur-
pose; for a patriotism that is single
and complete" and that will not for
an instant tolerate any division of al
legiance." He could not reasonably be
asked by the Progressives or by Col
onel Roosevelt to go farther than he
does in meeting their views as to pre-
paredness.
The Republican nominee, in writing
closely to the text of the Republican
platform, could scarcely have penned
his declarations with greater regard
for the doctrines held and enunciated
by the Progressives and their leader.
