 APPEAL TO PEOPLE

MESA, Nov. In this mornings issue of The Republican. Mesa mer- chants are making a frank appeal for the trade Of their home people, or rath- CT the Southside correspondent, is voic- ing What> he believes is the opinion of all loyal citizens in the matter of pat ronizing the home merchants. The merchants are setting forth their claims to the home trade and thus in auguTatirg a campaign which will be carried CT tn Iough the month of No vember There is no question but that for a town of it's size Mesa has a most extraordinary showing of large busi- ness houses and splendid stocks of goods. In every line the opportunities for selections as to individual need or taste, are only equaled by the just and fair prices uniformally asked by the Mesa business houses. One thing too, may well be stated viz, that in the main, the people of Mesa and the vii cinity are both loyal to and proud of their home town. Proud of it's stores, its homes, it's schools its churches, and above alI the splendid character of the citizenship of the Southside which makes all these other things possible. Mesa merchants are with one accord thankful for the patronage of their friends and are making an honest and energetic bid for the business justly Ee ongin9 to the Gate City.

CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAfO. Oct. 31-Material de- clines took place today in corn, largely as a result of weakness in the New York stock market and owing to the weather conditions adapted to husk- ing and the movement of new grain. The close was steady, 5sc to 1c net lower, with December $1.17% and May S1.13 to s113B Oats lost a shade to B@Ac. The finish in provisions ranged from 35 cents off to a rise of 25 cents
 Throughout the day selling pressure and lack of support tended to bring down corn. Liquidation of stocks ap- peared to~be more generally taken than heretofore as a signal for un- loading. Reports that an unusually large amount of new corn was turn ing out to be of unsatisfactory grade were variously construed
 Oats were easy with corn. Country offerings proved light
 Advanced prices of hogs made pro- visions average higher. The jump in the hog market appeared to be related to federal assurances of proper re- muneration to the producer"
