the producers, who will be the. chief
sufferers, to take action as a final
recourse in obtaining an adequate car
supply. ~
This note of warning was sounded
today by F. B. Wells of Minneapolis.
chairman Of the general grain com
nlittee of the United tates who re-
turned from Chicago this morning
from a conference of dealers in grain
and grain products from all sections
of the country. He spoke. today at
the annual convention o the Tri-

primary results, MI. Wells said. First,
the grain producer is likely to receive
ly handle the. crops will have two
less for his crop, for the buyer, un-
able to judge when he can ship the
grain, will have to require a much
larger margin as a protection against
the hazards of poor transportation.
In the second place, the checked grain
flow will prevent a liquidation, of the
crop and will deprive farmers OF
credit for the financing of fall farm
operations, he said.

BRYAN FAyORs MEREDITH?

II Is said that Mr.. Bryan favors
Ed Meredith Of Iowa for the demo-
cratic nomination for president. Bry-
an thinks him the best Of the lot.
Well, why not and why isn't he?
He is a constructive person who has
been able to create and run a big
business Of his own TO advantage Of
himself and his stockholders. He Is
the kind of man who can and does
make a business pay and who still
gets along with his help. AS an or
ganizer he seems to be able to pick
men who are capable Of running
their departments and make deci-
sIons without running to the foot of
the throne before taking any sort Of
action. That suggests that he would
pick a good cabinet and department
heads and that the country would be
benefited by their wisdom and abil-
ity. Meredith Is type of success
full business man who knows some
thing more than his own business
and Is able to see beyond his own
walls. Compared with the other
leading democrat candidates Mere
dlth is out and away the biggest and
best.
OF course, he couldn't be elected.
The chances are that no democrat
could be elected whatever his quail
fcations and the facts are that no
democrat should be elected. The rec
ord is against IL. No man is actual
ly bigger than his party under rep
resentative government. In the end
party must be and is responsible and
the democrat party must hold the
sack OF responsibility for Wilson and
his administration. That Is a hand
leap that Meredith or any other
couldn't carry to a winning campaign
for tho presidency.
But Bryan Is showing much better
judgment in picking Meredith than
he showed at Baltimore. Moreover.
Meredith could afford the honor OF
carrying the standard tho in lostng
fight. in return for the distinction OF
the nomination, and the chances are
that he would poll a bigger vote than
Palmer or McAdeo.
