National Prohibition

When the house of representatives has adopted the national prohibition resolution it will ultimately adopt it, congress will have fully washed its hands of a subject which for years has greatly nterfered with general legislation and which has contributed very largely the delay in the consideration of the food bill With the adoption of this resolution the subject of prohibition to the states there be for further activities at Washington. The prohibtonists and the liquor people scatter the battle grounds in fortyeight states Now, if congress would dispose of the equal suffrage question in the manner it would clear Wash Ington of lot of propagandsts.
 We believe that thirty-two of the states, and that would be enough, would ratify prohibition constitu- tionaI amendment Perhaps they would not do now fact do think they would, but taking into account the rapid spread of prohibition sentiment believe that within the next six years, the period within which the amendment would have be acted upon, the sentiment would become prev alent in than thirty-two states
 There are many currents in stream of prohi- bition. Though they all flow in the general di rection and make up the flood they sometimes cross another There different impulses. First have the prohibitonists who such for moral sons They may be counted upon to support prohibi tion any time and in any form. Then have other class who for economic favorable to prohibition principle but have voted against local option and statewide prohibition on the ground that isolated prohibition is ineffective. This argu- ment not without force few years ago, but is less applicable with the federal legislation which protects dry states dry districts. But this class might be counted upon to support national prohibition.
 We have, though, another class of voters who have supported prohibition and local option. but who really prohibtonsts who do not practice temperance. In the south where beginning some thirty years ago. prohibition has made great head way, of the leaders had other object in view than keep liquor out of the reach of ignorant negroes and vicious low caste whites That could be pretty well accomplished by local prohibition without a great deal of inconvenience to those who could drink leave it alone" that is, those to whom in their opinion strong drink could be used and not abused Whether all prohibitionists of this class would support national prohibition, which means complete and total abstinence, is doubtful
 We have statewide prohibition in twenty three and believe that these states coud be counted upon for ratification In at least dozen others there is such strong prohibition sentiment that large dry and in others, such Cal iforna and Missouri prohibition is always imminent.

The Butte lynchinq

The lynehing of Little, the l. W. W. agitator at Butte is wrapped up in mystery The lynching does appear have been incident the indus trial trouble which has stirred Butte for some time. Nor does it appear to have been the work of any ganizaton of citizens formed counteract the oper ations of agitators. At the most the identity of the lynchers is only suspected.

FINANCES AND MARKETS
fRepubIican A. p. Leased Wire1

NEW YORK, Aug. 2.-(Wall Street. Adverse weather conditions again accounted in large degree for todays limited stock dealings, but the mar ket's undertone was one of steady strength. save for few specialties, whose uncertain course resulted from specific reasons.
 Steels, coppers, feathers and oils comprised fully seventy per cent of the days operations, which, so far as they had any initiative, were directed against the shorts.
 United States Steel recorded a gross gain of E points at 125B and allied issues scored equal advances but for the most part these were shaded frac tionally by profit taking before the end. Teyas Company and Mexican Pe- troleum led the oils with advances Of 3R and ? points respectively.
 Industrial alcohol was most cratic of all specialties, rising and falling within a three point radius on rumors that the dividend soon to be declared might prove disappointing. Dividends totalling 32 per cent were declared af- ter the close of the market. Total sales amounted to 360,000 shares.
 Several favorable June reports of railroad earnings, the continued strength of rubles, another large trans fer of gold to Japan and the Bank of England statement disclosing a gold depreciation of slightly over s3,000, 900 made up the days conflicting news de- velopments. Bonds were irregular Liberty 3k's varied from $99.35 to S99.40. Total sales par value aggre- gated $1,975, 900.
 U. s. bonds old issues were un- changed on call

CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, Aug. 2.-Corn ran up in value today owing to disappointment over the sentiments of rains in the southwest and to increasing urgency Of industrial demand The market closed firm. < 2 cents higher at $1175s to $ll7% December and $115h May. Wheat finished strong, 13 up to S231 September. Oats gained Ike to 1Ac and provisions 20c to 42c
 Wheat prices fluctuated widely on a very limited trade Note was taken of the fact that primary receipts were less than a third of the total at the corre- spending time last year. By far the however, took place in the last few minutes of the session as result of a little short covering when the market was bare of offers
 Notwithstanding that the oats mar ket was easy during the first half of the day, advances finally took place in response to the strength of corn. Be- sldes, Liverpool advices were at hand that entente countries were making ilperal purchases of the new American crop.
 Provisions rose on account of a buiiish construction that some author lties placed on the monthly report of warehouse stocks here. Packers were said to have shared in the buying.
 Close Wheat: Sept. s2.31.
 Corn: Dec. s117%; May s1.15%.
 Oats: Sept. 601ac: Dec 60Ac.
 Pork: Sept s41.10
 Lard: Sept. $2152; Oct. $21.67.

STOCK LETTER By R. Allyn Lewis

Stocks were quiet bua held well throughout the session today. Leathei stocks were very strong alA- the whole market closed generally batter. Best analyssseof Steel statement considers it extremely bullish and there is no doubt a big short interest in this stock will have to cover at q higher figure when the market assumes a broader scope The same may be said of Cop pers which have been sold lately on account of la5or troubles and small output naturally.
 Railroad earnings are very spotty. St, Paul and Southern show up well. Bal ance badly. Southern By. earnings are remarkable. If the bonds of this com pany were selling at a price that would permit financing, the preferred stock would be paying dividend. Midvale on it's earnings is very high compared to Steel.
 Cotton was quiet today and fluctu- ated within 90 point range, closing without feature. It is a dull waiting market but crop prospects are not such as to cause any serious decline from tbiS level

Where the People
 May Have Hearing
WILL THE GERMAN PEOPLE FIGHT THE UNITED STATES?

To The Editor of The Republican:
 Although the United States are pre-
 pairing to help the allies to defeat
 Germany yet, we cannot believe that
 Germany will war on the United States
 What nation on earth has ever done for the world as did Uncle Sam? What country on the Globe has as
 ringing a name as has America? America has indeed deserved consid =
 eration and respect for it's glorious humanitarian deeds, which cannot but be deeply impressed into every mans soul, be he Christian or Pagan. ortho- dox or atheist, American broad prin- | ciples did not discriminate, has treat | ed every nation like brothers and sis | terS
 What if India were struck with i Famine, Jamaica with earthquake, 1 China with the Boxer plague What would have become of the Poles and Belgians in this war? Who
 extended a helping hand if not liberal 1 Uncle Sam?
 The millions of Jewish subjects ir
 Russia that have suffered in this | bloody war would have perished like
 sheep from hunger and exposude, were l
 of the ocean, but nothing to wonder 1 for it was America. America is helping the allies not 1 because she has a greater love for
 one nation than she has for another, | for if Germany were in a predicament
 where would the kaiser and it's people
 look for sympathy if not to their own | brethern in America? 1 And what does America demand | from Germany?
 To cease the slaughter and stop
 the destruction of humanity. To quit shedding the lives of his own as well
 as of other peoples. i With the bones of the youth has | fertiliZed the ground. l "The shreiks on the ocean re-echoed | all around.''
 Can America sit idly by and keep quiet? If it could. it would not have been the United States of America. NATHAN DIAMOND

The Subject of Loyalty

We have received number of marked papers containing articles telling of the harshness of the police in dealing with rioters socialists engaged in demonstrations against the conscrpton We have received letters on the subject
 We have word of defense illegal brutal police methods They reprehensble and de- structve of liberty. But it would be pleasant prise to have of socialist friends send strong letter protesting against unpariotc not positively reasonable utterances and actions of of the socialist agitators. We should welcome from this condemnation of the outrageous infringe ment of law well liberty of the trouble breed ing anarchistc organization
 These correspondents greatly disturbed over the arbitrary actions of the police of Boston,. Why did not they show similar interest in the gross in vasion of the rights of men and women involved in the disturbances in Arizona Montana?
 The only safeguard of liberty is the law. The who strike at organized society for the purpose of tearing down the enemies of democracy and the assaiants of our liberties. They be regarded in other light. They would substitute their own pet theories which in most instances are simply the trap of other men, the orderly conduct of government under law
 No thinking will deny that there is need for governmental changes and many of us will live to see of the sociaistic principles become the law of the land That movement is now in progress. But the essential thing for that is the develop ment of laws along proper lines. The destruction of law and order preached by of the agitators would make that progress impossible and in the end break down government.
 If those who send these letters and papers are truly patriotic and interested in the of human liberty they will throw all their strength the gov ernment and aid in every way possible the promotion of the war, which is being waged against autocracy and in support of the principles of democracy. They will assist in the battle for humanity raging thousand miles of battle front They will have less say about the abuses of the agators and rally to the side of those who protecting liberties.
