revolutionize all the processes ot our economic life. We shall not attempt to do so. There are days of deep excitement and of extravagant speech but with us these are things or the surface. Everyone who IS III real touch with the silent masses or our great people knows that the ola strong tlpre and self control are still there, firm against violence or any distempered acton that would throw their affairs into confusion. l am serenely confident that they will readily find themselves. no matter what the circumstances, and that they will address themselves to the tasks of peace with the same devotion and the same stalwart preference for what is right that they displayed to the admiration of the whole world in the midst of war.
 Labor's Duty.
 And 1 enter another confident hope. I have spoken today chiefly of measures of imperative regulation and legal compulslon, of prosecutions and the sharp convictions of seltlsh processes, and these no doubt are necessary. But there are other forces that we may count on besides those resident in the department of justice. We have fully awakened to what has been going on and to the influences, many of them very sel- fish and sinister that have been put ting high prices and imposing an ln- tolerabIe burden on the mass of our people. To have brought it all into the open will accomplish the greater part of the result we seek. appeal with entire confidence to our pro- ducers, to our middlemen and to our merchants to deal fairly with the
 people. It is their opportunity to show that they comprehend, that they
 intend to act justly, and that they
 have the public interest sincerely at
 heart. And l have no doubt that hcusekeepers all over the country and everyone who buys the things he daily stands in need of will present. " exercise a greater vigilance, a more thoughtful economy, more dis eliminating care as to the market in which he buys or the merchant with whom he trades than he has hitherto exercised.
 q believe, too, that the more ex- treme leaders of organized labor will presently yield to sober second thought, and like the great mass of
 their assistants, think and act like true Americans. They will see that strikes undertaken at this critical time are certain to make matters worse, not better-worse for them and for every body else. The worse thing, the most fatal thing that can
 be done is to stop or interrupt pro-
 duction or to interfere with the dis trjbution of goods by the railways and the shipping of the country. Everyone Concerned.

DECIDED STRENGTH
 IS SHOWN BY CORN
Attention of Traders Gen. ters on Fact There Is No
 Contract Stock On Hand
By Associated Press


 Chicago. March 4.-With the visible sup ply reduced to amount nearly withou- parallel at this time of the year and with rough weather threatening a fur ther cut in receipts, the corn market to- day gave evidence of, decided strength. The close was unsettled but % to Sc net higher with May s1.29 to sl.29N and July H.244 to SIPS. Oats gained hc to ssc. In provisions the outcome was unchanged to 22c rown.
 Attention of corn traders centered largely on the fact that there was vir- tually no contract stock on hand here and but little prospect of any accumula- tion between now and the end of May. as conditions were far from favorable for a free movement from the country. In addition, sharp bulge in the hog mar ket tended to emphasize bullish senti- ment and to make traders appear indif ferent to the harbor workers strike was depressing factor. Toward the last. however. profit taking sales led to some- thing of setback.
 Free buying on the part of elevators interests helped to put firmness into the oats market. Rural offerings were small. Assertions that 800 cars of packing house products were strike e-bound in New York more than wiped out advances in provisions. The temporary gains were | due to strength of corn and hogs.

TWO ABLE MEN TO
 HANDLE CAMPAIGNS
Ry HOLLAND

New York; March 4.-(SpeciaD With Win S. Hays directing the repub- lican national campaign next year and Homer S. Cummings in like manner guiding the democratic party so far
 as political management is concerned, the campaign itself, outside of the is sues. is certain to be very interesting.
 Both the republican chairman, MT,
 Hays, and the newly chosen demo-
 cratic chairman. MT. Cummings, are cy
 birth western men. MT Hays is son
 of Indiana and has always retained
 close association with the place of his birth. Mir Cummings native town is Chicago and he received there the edu- cation which prepared him for Yale, After he was graduated at Yale uni. versity he made choice of Stamford, Conn.,, as his nome so that 30 years
 residence in the east constitute him an eastern man and the associations which have been his experience in the east cause him to be as typical of the east ern politician and the eastern citizen as any who was born and reared here. Both are in the prime of life. MT
 Cummings is nearly 10 years the se- nior of MT. Hays. He is in his fiftieth year. Mir. Hays will be 40 at his next birthday. Both were.- early in their professional careers as lawyers, in clined towards poiitics and each oi

The Growth of Grammar

From the Christian Herald.
 In the days of Chaucer there were undoubtedly differences among writers which made their grammar and spelling seem singular to us; yet crude though they were, the art of literary composition was well advanced. That, however, was not the greatest age; it came in tho Eliza bethan period; and while the literary peculiarities of Shakespeare's style were strongly defined. it could not bs said in any sense that they revealed lack of knowledge in either grammar or spelling, the standards of that day being suited to the culture of the time And a great advance has been made over the days of Chaucer. Tn the days of' Addison, Johnson, Swift, Congreve and Goldsmith, we find & great ad- vance with more unity in both gram mar and spelling. The authorized version of the Bible in tho line of literary workmanship noted the great est advance of all, and reached a point which has not been surpassed If, in deed, equalled. There was a certain latitude in spelling, 1t Is true to which we today look back with interested cu- rlosity; but even that was not the re- suit of ignorance, but rather of cus- tom, which allowed the latitude. and it was in no sense literary disfigure- ment.

them soon made It clear that he pos sessed unusual qualifications for po- litical management, the perfectlng ot organizations the control of the eau GUS and the management of pontl- clans.
 Mir Cummings may have one quail fication which another son Of Connec- ticut, the late Governor Marshall Jew ell. who was in 1880 chairman Of the republican committee, possessed.
 If Mir. Hays also has this gift ne also subordinates it, believing that modern political tendencies and the finer moral view that should actuate political life tend to relegate to the rear the qualities which Marshall Jew ell possessed in an unusual degree, and also Mark Hanna when he was char" man of the republican national com" mittee in 1880, not because he pos sessed unusual ability for political management, but chiefly because of his extraordinary gift for persuading men to yield much larger sums for c~m- paigE purposes than they expected to subscribe before Governor Jewell call cd upon them. His plausibility, his de- lightfully insinuating manner and a sort of hypnotizing influence he seem ed to- exert in some cases, brought forth large subscriptions from men who wondered after the subscription was made and they had time to think 1t over how they had been persuaded to give sums vastly in excess Of what thev had nropoSed giving.

JEWELL AS A MONEY RAISER

The late Senator Dorsey, who was secretary of the republican national committee when Governor Jewell was chairman, said year or two after the election of Garfield that but for the funds Jewell was able to raise General Hancock instead of General Garfield would have been elected President Mark Hanna was a wonderful money raiser, but his method was more like that of man who commands a person to stand and deliver. Mir Cummings, if is believed. does know how to raiso large subscription funds and also how wisely and honorably to use them.
 On the other hand. MT. Hays is per suaded that the day for large contr!- buttons to campaign funds has passed and that no more money should be ask ed from the members of his party than is essential for honorable campaign purposes He has said to friends in In American campaign methods, espec- tally the national campaigns. in the past has been the disposition to raise enormous amounts of money only small part of which was needed. He was reminded by a friend that when Governor Morgan of New York was chairman of the republican national committee which was in charge of Abraham Lincoln's first campaign for the presidency, he asked for and re- ceived only about $150.000 After the campaign was over several thousand dollars of this fund remained un-
