Considering that Mr. Cannon has been elected

the national legislature longer than any other man
in the history Of the republic is it not fair to infer
that he has been extraordinary satisfactory pub

politics. And this is worth reflectng upon and
at all times. Representative Cannon is a stalwart
republican. In the estimation of good many he
is that condemned thing called "reaetonary" But
his reactionarysm is nothing more than the wise

Supplying other people with copper kettles and
copper coils these prohibition days may not be an
offense but like sneezing at the wrong time. it may
get into trouble occasion.
Perhaps DR.. Sena will explain how it happened
to be copper kettle instead of a bass drum

Mr.. Rosenwald still sits at the rat-hoe as presi-
dent of the Insane Asylum Board. Or should we say
the bung-hoe?
He is very important part of the institutions
staff. Before he began measuring the whiskey in
his own warehouse, only six gallons out of barrel
reached the medical store of that institution
Under his careful measurement twenty gallons out
of barrel arrived safely in stock. We opne that
that is some material difference. After sufficient
practice by Mr. Rosenwald. it may all arrive safely
There is no especial reason for pessmism.
Besides, Mr., RosenwaId is an expert in buying
and selling tractors The institution may need to
buy another one some time. Mr.. Sec. Romero, who
is on the ground frequently and knows the details
probably fears that the institution could not buy
another secondhand tractor for the low price OF
s14Oo, when new price is $3.50. unless Mr. Ros-
enwald is on hand to engineer the DEAL The gov
ernor is right perhaps in taking Secs. judgment
and in not removing Mr.. Rosenwad.
Probably our judgment is bad in concluding that
he should be removed for "the good of the service
We say 'probably"-or at least. perhaps.

THE DEMOCRATS.

The democratic state central COMMITTEES is to
meet in a couple of days to select new state chair
man. We wonder If some ignorant, uncouth and
dsloyal "boss" will arise at the first suggestion of
a name and say His selection will start factional
fight" precedent, not a week old, can be found
for such a course.
We hope that the democratic committee is COM
ing together in good faith for earnest discussion
of what can be done for the good of the state. If
that is DONE it will prove to be for the good Of the
party.
1t should not be forgotten that the present
unrest in the state is not partisan unrest. 1t is
a moral rebellion against the conditions which
have retarded development Of New Mexico.
For the democrats to capitalize the present un-
rest they must regard the issue this fall moral
issue and so set their house in order that their
party will commend itself to the moral of
the people of the state
The signs of the times point out in unmistakable
fashion the route the democrats must take to
victory
No mistake should be made.

"UNCLE JOE" AND POLITICS.

Representative Joseph Burney Cannon of I'LL
nois is one OF the best loved men in public life
in America. There will be sincere regret, without
as well as within the republican party, that he has
determined his present term shall be his last in
congress. Yet but few years ago no figure in
American politics more roundly denounced as
a menace to our institutions. "Cannonism" was
term Of political opprobrium. "Uncle Joe" Cannon
was regarded by all In political disagreement from
him the arch-enemy of popular government
That was because as speaker of the house of rep
resentatives, he exerted a power over legislation
that to degree "czarlile" in the phrase of the
period
How inapt the conception became apparent
at the Showdown" The speaker welded power
entrusted to him by the votes OF the majority of
his fellow members and he stripped of 1t when
sufficient number became convinced that It was
wise SO to deprive him. He had been regarded
ogresh before his elevation to the speakership and
since his retirement from that office his ovable
human qualities have been commonly recognized.

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE,

Chicago. Feb. 20.-Big advances
in wheat prices today failed to en-
counter aggressive opposition,
Scarcity OF offerings emphasized
talk of possible world shortage OF
breadstuff supplies. and let the
market ascend as much as &C.
going far above any quotations
current heretofore this season. The
close was strong at the topmost
point reached, 4 to Il c-net higher,
with May $t.46A to $1.46B and
JuIv $127% to $1.277s. Corn
gained "A to Il and oats u TO q G;
In provisions, the outcome varied
from SC decline to lie advance.
Rising prices in the wheat mar
ket were accompanied by reports
that Germany had bought 3,Ooo,-
600 to 100000 bushels of Argen-
tine and Canadian wheat and that
English interests had taken 500,-
900 bushels of Canadian. Mean
while. Holland was said to be after
United States wheat at CUR or
Mexico ports and Japan buying on
the Pacific coast. Advices were az
hand also telling of continued
drought conditions In Kansas ana
Oklahoma, threatening to curtain
further the early supplies from the
1922 domestic crop. in addition 70
recent reductions Of about 100, o0o,-
600 bushels in the estimated sur
plus Of Canada. Australia and Ar
gentina as compared with previous
generally accepted figures.
AT no time during today's SEES
sion were setbacks in wheat prices
more than of an ordinary profit
taking character. The May de-
livery here showed more strength
than the July. and was particularly
affected by an advance in the LiV-
erpooI market. Another reason for
the apparent special buoyancy. OF
the May delivery was gossip that
a leading elevator interest was ac-
curing all available cash wheat
here.
Corn as we'll as wheat broke the
present seasons high price record.
Announcement of an increase of g.
$4,000 bushels in the visible sup
ply of corn was offset by con-
tinued active demand from the
seaboard.
Oats were held down by liberal
receipts and rather free selling.
Provisions rose with hogs and
grain Besides. exports of lard
were considerably in excess of last
years figures.
Closing prices:
Wheat - Nay, $1.46E; July,
$127A.
Corn--May, 63kc; July, 65iar
Oats-May. 1880; July. 43c.
