"AGIN" MIR. POST

The American Legion executive committee took up the secret report of the committee which investigated Louis F. Post, assistant secretary of labor, on the day after the national convention had adjourned at Cleve- land, and approved the demand in the report for the dismissal of MT. Post It was probably mistake not to bring this report before the convention, or before the executive committee prior to the convention, as it was the old and not the new executive com mittee which created the secret in vestigation commission.
 Whatever the reasons for leaving the action about MT. Post until after the convention, the result is an unfortunate opportunity, which news papers in New York promptly seized upon, to allege that the whole thing was a political scheme, and the Le- zion is left without much chance to

KANSAS CITY WEEKLY :. LIVE STOCK LETTER :.
+%**++**++++*+*i <

With cattle receipts here about 1000 less than a week ago, and prospects that receipts next week will be light, owing to the national election, trade ruled active at strong to 25 cents higher prices. Fat cattle were in light supply and there was a good de- mand for stock and feeding grades. Hog prices were l5 to 25 cents lower and the lowest since early February, 1917. Sheep and lambs sold readily at strong prices.
 Today's Receipts.
 Receipts today were 22,00 cattle, 5000 hogs, and 5000 sheep, compared with 29,OOO cattle, 1000 hogs and 5000 sheep a week ago and $500 cattle, 9250 hogs and 1850 sheep year ago.
 Beef Cattle.
 Killers were fairly anxious for all classes of fat cattle at strong to p cents higher prices. The market showed the first activity in several weeks past. The improved condition here was more noticeable as Chicago quoted dull and lower market. Some short fed steers sold at $1275 to $13.25 and better steers brought S14 to $l5. Nothing choice to prime was offered. Most of the common light weight grass steers sold at $500 to S9.00 and the better grassers brought $9.50 to $12.75. Killers had to meet feeder competition on the good quality 1050 to HOO pound steers. Cows and heifers were quoted strong to 25 cents higher, and veal calves were steady.
 StOckers and Feeders.
 The per cent of stockers and feed CTS in proportion to total receipts of cattle was liberal, but there was an active demand and prices ruled stronger. Receipts from the Pan- handle and southwest were liberal and quality was good. Eastern feeders are increasing their orders. Last week, 31 ,000 thin cattle were shipped back to country points.
 Hogs.
 Though receipts were moderate, the decline in hogs continued and prices reached new low level for the year and to the lowest position since early February, 1917. Today's decline was 15 to 9 cents, top price, $13.1O and bulk of sales S12.5O to $13.OO. Pigs sold up to S13.25. Other markets re- ported sharp declines. Chicago scratched S13.25 early, but later none sold above $500. Here at the de- cline packers bought freely.
 Sheep and Lambs.
 Light receipts brought stronger prices for lambs. Sheep were fully steady. Best lambs sold at $12.O0 to S12.35, and ewes $500 to $5.60. Feed ing lambs brought $11.00 to $12.00. Those who are counting on buying western lambs will have to make pur- chases in the next two weeks as the run will be over by the middle of No- vember.
 Horses and Mules.
 Trade in the horse and mule division continued dull. Today's receipts were light, but there was small demand.

answer. The fact is that while the Post report was made and handled throughout in rather secretive man ner, with no newspaper except The Stars and Stripes ever printing .ny- thing about it prior to the conven- ton, nevertheless the report was writ ten by members of MT. Posts own political party.
 The substance of the matter is that the Legion is in favor of deportations of radicals and lots of them. MT. Post is against deportations so far as his legal authority permits him to be. Hence the Leg ,n is against Mir. Post. It is doubtful |. at the Legion's secret committee acted in the most prudent manner, or knows all the law in the case, and that the affair was best handled by keeping it away from the annual convention, but the result would probably have been the same anyhow.-Stars and Stripes.

WON'T DISMISS BRIBERY CASE AGAINST PROMINENT MEN
ss-Avst-sxs xsssAssssA sA

The S10,0O0 bribery case against Elmer Coker, prominent land attor- ney of Florence; s. T. Mccall, we'll known horse racing man of Douglas, and Jim Murphy, former deputy sher- iii of Maricopa county, is before the superior court. They we've bound over by Justice Chas. D. Wheeler, of the East Precinct court, follow ing the waiving of preliminary hearing. This is .he case wherein Edward O'Brien Mann, a homestead CT and dry farmer/of Cochise county, charges conspiracy and kidnapping on the part of the defendants to pre- vent him from filing referendum pe- titions against the famous land grab bill by the supreme court, and the ad- ministration of wnica by the present state land commissioners has furnish ed the main issue of the state cam- paign.
 Mann says that Coker, Mccall and Murphy offered him S10,000 if he would refrain from filing several hun dred names on referendum petition which if effective would have post poned the operation on the law.
 Failing in their attempts at brib- cry, he says, Coker and Mccall, with the assistance of tayidriver, kid naped him late at night on the last day of filing the petitions and would have succeeded in their foul purpose, but for the fact that he jumped from the machine. The automobile con- tinued on without him, he said, and he was left on the pavement injured and alone.
