double or triple the votes his party

on the Interpretation OF this bill and
by double assault ON President
Wilson and Republican Candidate
Hughes. as friends OF Wall-st. and
proteges OF the moneyed CLASSES.
The clause in the Highlander
lain bill to which Benson objects
gives the president the right to
call on the reserve forces In case
OF need. Technically. It is claimed
the reserve force" includes all

Veal calves are selling higher than
was ever before known, sl4 per cwt
having been frequently paid during
the past week in both Buffalo ana
Pittsburgh.
One OF the most variable price
lists in the American live stock
market is afforded b. the business
OF the sheep yards. Lambs went up
all over the country early last week,
but the gain did not hold and con-
ditions are about as they were at
the beginning OF the current month.
Western lamb feeders. who put
lambs on full feed early. are begin
ming 10 send them forward only half
done because OF the high cost OF
corn. These immature lambs will
continue TO como and will act IA a
modifying feature in the autumn
market for killers and feeders as
well. Mature sheep are notably
scarce and prices are unseasonably
high in this branch OF the trade.
Good fat yearlings have sold recent
ly in Chicago as high as $3.50. A
band OF Dakota feeding yearlings
brought $500 last week. Aged Mon
tana ewes, but with fun mouths,
bring IS per cwt.. two-year and
threeyear-olds 80 10 s9.25. and sort
cd yearllngs go at $1,000. with pien-
ty OF takers. Every state east OF
the Mississippi river Is In the mar
ket for breeding stock OF all kinds.
That the market for live hogs is
trembling In tho balance these days
cannot be successfully denied. and
the owner OF fat hogs will show good
judgment by converting them into
cash right speedily. The recent
high spot" OF sl1.s0 In Chicago Is
the highest price since the war OF
the rebellion. and II Is safe 10 pre-
dict that II will not again be
equaled for several years TO come.
Market statistics show that the an
nual American output OF hogs Is in
creasing rapidly and inasmuch as
present high prices are due 10 alb
normal conditions. the world over.
the inference that hogs will sell
lower before long, would seem TO be
the logical one. A glance at mar
ket reports from leading trade points
shows that already packers are dis
eliminating against heavy hogs, sim
ply because they know that they
