THE FORUM

Editor OF the Palladium
My attention was called to an ar
ticle in your Thursday evening issue
anent the local political situation in
which it was said that it was i'm
probable" that the women of the city
would support me at the primary Aug.
% as a candidate for mayor.
The sources of information of your
reporter, who wrote the article, are
sufficiently evident, so much so that
would not take the trouble to con-
trovert this statement, whose purpose
is manifest, had l not been urged to
do so by a number of the women who
will support me at the polls.
The woman vote is a more or less
unknown quantity. but, as a political
writer on the newspaper of this city
for the past Is years, l fancy J have
fair enough knowledge of the local
situation to say that the majority OF
the women of the city will vote fol
me.
Each candidate will have his WON
an supporters and l am not unaware
of the fact that there are women who
are working actively against me.
know why they are doing so and WHIT
they are But this bothers me not il
the least since it would not be human
to expect anything else. But when {
reporter uses this latter course
of information to make a blanke
statement to the effect that the won
en- of the city will not vote for me,
take issue and do so at the behest o
a large number of women voters whit
will do so.

The Farm and The Farmer
BY William r. Sanborn

pared with the war period. Grain
and live stock prices have been cut
In two, or more so. hence the demand
for money is equally cut
And this is also true of cotton
While strenuous efforts have been
made to finance farmers whose high
priced cotton has been carried over
on falling market, and which now
represents serious losses, that load
has also been pretty we'll adjusted
through the action OF congress and
the reserve banks, and through ar
rangements made to market abroad at
current prices.
Richmond Banks Very Helpful
No complaint as to the action of
our own city banks not doing their
full share to relieve the pressure has
reached this desk. And not only is
this true of Richmond banks but of
our country banks, to the extent of
their ability to take care of their Gus.
toners. We are not denying that pro-
ducers have had a hard season. but
that is not the fault of the bankers,
but was caused by conditions over
which the country, or even the world
has no control.
The latest report of the federal re
serve board is to the effect that two
| flfths of the whole worlds estimated
stock of gold is now in our treasures
| and our gold receipts in July totaled
S60,0O0,000. We have, in fact, i'm
ported S100,000,000 more gold SO fal
this year than the worlds total pro
duction in 1920.

CHICAGO HOG MARKET
RECEIVERS SATURDAY
FROM FRIDAY BREAK
By WILLIAM r. SANBO RN.

The men who had heavy hogs on
the Chicago market on Friday. met
with considerable disappointment. In

vancing markets, slight recessions
were in order, and were expected
After the breaks of Wednesday and
Thursday one might look FOR at least

hogs came in freely, making the
supply greater than the demand, espe-

Dollar Drop Is Seen.
Sad to relate, some heavy packing
hogs at Chicago actually sold 81 lower
than at the high time Thursday, a
few loads selling down to S8.25, at
the close of the day.
The top on lights at $10.95 was IS
cents under Thursdays top of s11.30.
The preponderance of heavy hogs made
the days average price $3.50, so cents
off from the previous day and the low

Fifteen thousand hogs were left in

MYSTERIOUS CULT
 AROUSES JAPANESE
Arrest of Three Priests Brings It
 Into Prominence

Tokio, April ?, CDelayed).-The presided over the mysterious Japa- nese cult known as Omotoyko, found- ed by ans elderly woman named Deg uchi. has again brought into public notice this religion which aroused interest throughout the empire be- cause it is regarded as a strange mix ture Of extreme chauvinism and rev. olutionary radfcalism.
 Many extraordinary reports have recently been circulated concerning the mysterious influence of the cult. For instance, some people attributed the recent curious murder of a veal thy Osaka business man while he was travelling in a train from Tokio to that city, as an act of vengeance of Omotokyo.
 Many wealthy people who became interested in the cult are alleged to have been forced to make large con- tributions, and 1t is even charged that some people who obtained intimate knowledge of the secrets of the re- hgion mysteriously disappeared. Some who went to Ayabe, a small village in the province of Tamba, Kyoto pre- lecture, where is located the head quarters of the religion, for the pur- pose of detecting the real nature and scope of the cult have failed to re- turn and are entirely unaccounted for.
 The charge upon which the three priests were recently arrested is un- known and the Japanese newspapers have been forbidden to publish any news concerning the arrest A girl of II, Naohi Deguchi, the daughter of the founder is supposed to be the presiding priestess of the temple and it is declared that other priests have explained the disappearance of their leaders by telling the Omotokyo wor- shippers that they have been hidden by some unseen deity in accordance
