Chicago, Sept. 26-The upward
swinging of the hog market continued
today owing to the meagerness of the
supplies here and at other centers.
While the Chicago run Tuesday was
larger than a week ago, the total at
eleven markets at $4,000 head was
1000 smaller and $4,000 less than a
year ago, while $4,000 less than two
years ago. Total for the first two days
of the week at 100000 head figures
1000 less than week ago, $4,000 less
than a year ago and $4,000 less than
two years ago.
Despite the fact that hog receipts
at eleven markets will pass the nine

the same as two years ago.

SO believing, was bound to feel that
the natural lines Of race, blood ana
kinship could not be the determining
lines for ones attitude and alignment,
but that each man, whatever his origin.
had to decide according to his tudgS
ment and conscience on which side was
the right and on which was the wrong
and take his stand accordingly, what
ever the wrench and anguish Of the de-
cision. And thus I took my stand three
years ago.
"But whatever ones views and feel
ings, whatever the country. Of ones
birth or kin, only one course was left
for all those claiming the privilege OF
American citizenship when by action
Of the president and congress the cause
and the. fight Of the allies was formally
made our cause and our fight.
THE duty OF loyal allegiance and
faithful service to his country, even
unto death, rests, of course, upon every
American. That duty may almost be
said to rest with an even more solemn
and compelling obligation upon Amer
leans Of foreign origin than upon ma
tive Americans.
"woe to the foreign born American
who considers his American citizenship
merely as convenient garment to be
worn in fair weather but to be ex-
changed for another one in time OF
storm and stress!
What We're Fighting For.
ITO defend the very foundations OF
liberty and humanity, the very ground
work Of fair dealing between nations,
the very basis of peaceable living to-
gether among the peoples Of the earth
against the fierce and brutal onslaught
Of ruthless. lawless, faith1ess might:
to spend the lives and the fortunes OF
this generation so that our descendants
may be freed from the dreadful ca
lamity Of war and the fear OF war, 80
that the energies and millions and bill
lions Of treasure now devoted to plans
and instruments Of destruction. may be
given henceforth to- fruitful works OF
peace and progress and to the better
ment of the conditions Of the people
that Is the highest cause for which any
people ever unsheathed its sword.

Chicago, Sept. 26.-Corn-The corn
market was irregular within a COM
paratively narrow range. Bulls were
disappointed because the date for even
discussion of maximum prices has
been set two weeks hence. The weather
forecast was regarded as bullish, but
buying was not aggressive, and the
market showed no marked strength.
The government weekly weather and
crop report was favorable. The cash
demand for old corn is slow, prices to-
day averaging about 2 cents lower.
Oats-Liquidation in the September
delivery narrowed the difference be-
tween the current delivery and Deem
Der Stocks in store are increasing,
and it is highly probable that deliver
les in September contracts Will be
larger the last few days of this month.
Country holders are undoubtedly over
stocked with oats, and until the corn
crop is seriously hurt soon the vol
ume., of receipts is likely to increase
very materially.

Chicago, Sept. 26,-Profit taking by
bulls who had anticipated unfavorable
weather developments weakened the
corn market today. Temporary removal
of uncertainty about possible changes
in the existing maximum price regula-
tlons tended also to favor the bears.
Besides, the government weekly crop
report gave no special encouragement
for buyers. Opening quotations, which
ranged from q to q and q cent low
er at 1.21 to 1919 for December and
1.1S1a to 1.1Sa4 for May, were followed
by a material further decline.
Some speculative purchasing led af
terward to a reaction, but was checked
by authoritative unofficial advices that
the crop as whole was progressing
we'll to maturity, and that a good por-
ton already was out of danger from
frost The close was unsettled, Is
cent to l Is cents net lower at s1.21 for
December and Sis for May.
Oats.
Adjustment of expiring contracts in
the current month had. depressing
effect on the oats market. Heaviness
resulted, too. from the downturn in
corn.
Provisions.
Fresh advances in the value of hogs
lifted provisions. Pork especially, WAS
