SIOUX CITY LIVE STOCK MARKET

Sioux City, Dec. Cattle market
showed a weak undertone in all
branches. Supplies were liberal for
a Friday and with dealers holdings
large for this time of the week the
stocker and feeder branch was very
dull with prices lower, while outlet
afforded killers was rated as just
weak. Run was posted at 1900, as
against 2,668 a week ago and 1866
the corresponding day a year ago.
Strain of heavy receipts together
with bearish wires from outside cen
tiers influenced the local situation on
hogs and a break of about a dime
was quoted on the bulk of sales.
Top for the day was $17.55, with the
bulk of sales from s17.25 @17.50.
Receipts of sheep and lambs were
light and prices unchanged from the
previous market day.

Government Official Is Predicting a Social UpheavaI if Prices
 Not Checked.
FOODSTUFF IN STORAGE
SpecuIators Are Holding Out for Exorbitant Prices; Traitors
 Fate Awaits.

WASHINGTON. May 19.-Predic- tions of a social upheaval in the United States unless the rising price of food was checked was made here this morning by George w. Ander- son, special assistant to Attorney General Gregory, who has made an investigation of food costs in many of the larger cities of the Atlantic coast and middle west states Mir. Anderson made this statement while appearing before the House Agricul- tural committee.
 Vast quantities of food stuffs are now in storage" said MT. Anderson, those holding the stuff demanding high prices. have found that ar ticles of food purchase at nominal prices are now demanding, in. some instances, a price hundred per cent. higher than was paid. There is absolutely no reason for this rob bery. Speculation should be made a traitors fate. Trouble will result unless the government takes hand exercising firm punishment to all who are engaged in the nefarious prac- tice."

SuIzer's Leadership Is Acknowledged and Organization
 in Favor.
GOVERNORSHlP AGREED
Position of The Empire Approved with Unanimous Voice by Democratic
 Press of Alaska.

That the Democratic newspapers of Alaska, including most of those
 which supported Charles A. Sulzer in the campaign last year, recog- nize the leadership of Delegate Sul-
 ger, and approve of the course of the Democratic organization and The Empire is clearly indicated ill dispatches received by this paper to- day from the Fairbanks Citizen, Fairbanks News-Miner and Valdez Prospector. all daily newspapers, and the Anchorage Democrat and Idia- rod Pioneer, weekly newspapers. That the Nenana News and Ruby Record-Citizen agrees with the posi- tion of the other newspapers is the information that thas been received at Juneau. The Empires Query.
 l4e t:spae e5ligs s0ill the newspa-
 pers mentioned were in reply to a statement and query sent out by The Empire yesterday. The Elm pirye's telegram was addressed to all of the newspapers above mentioned except the Nenana News. It was as follows:
 "The Empire takes the posi- tion that the Democratic rank
 and file of Alaska have chosen
 Delegate Sulzer as the party
 leader until the next primary, and the choice has been ap h% hG nf hn Territory. If the party is to be useful. if the party is to be anything else than a mob quar- reling over offices, it will fol- low the leadership of Sulzer. Any attempt to go over his
 head now is to give aid and comfort to enemy and consti- tutes party treachery. Delegate Sulzer's leadership is emphasized by the circum- stance that it is approved by the overwhelmingly elected Democratic Territorial Central | Committee, majority of the Democratic Divisional commit tees, and the Democratic press of the Territory It is further emphasized by the circumstance that it offers the only way to get that concert of action in | Alaska and Washington that is l essential to good government and Alaskan progress. ! Therefore The Empire favors Jennings for Governor, who is ] not candidate, but would support any competent man 1 who would work with SulZer
 for program approved by Alas l kan voters.
