 best in some time. Furthermore, the Kansas state weekly report was given a bull:sh construction as appearing to emphasize other adv!ces that the win ter outlook was dubious.
 Persistent selling by houses with eastern Connections developed on the price bulges in the wheat market, but had no lasting effect, final trades being at the topmogt figures which any month had reached today. One of the late strengthening factors was a re- port that Australian wheat supplies were less abundant than was expected, and that shipments from Australia to Europe were. being very much restrict cd as a result.
 Corn and oats were firmer in sym pathy with wheat. Exports of damage to the Argentine corn crop had an ad- ditional bullish influence and so too did improvement in domestic shipping in quiry, here. Ciosin gof spreads between lard and cottonseed. oil helped to lift provisions values which also were sided by the course of the hog market.

JOHNSON COUNTY
The Hon. Ind. Voter

The results of the election in
Montana, as we'll as throughout the
nation, are proof that the Independ-
ent voter is coming to his own. Par
ty worship and the idea of vote 'er
Straight from Constable up as the
peerless leader Of the Republican
party said in Buffalo, has been wiped
away. And it will be a long time
before a candidate on either ticket
will ever again stand up and insult
the intelligence of the people by
asking them to 'vote 'er straight"
Honesty in politics will be upheld,
because the people have practically
issued their mandate that no candi-
date can hide their record under a
party mantle and that the people de-
mand a man who will represent
them. and their interests regardless
Of the dictates of any boss or party.
The Independent voter has taken
the bit in his teeth and has won the
day.-Buffalo Voice.

UvNTA COUNTY
Not All Lost

In the surprising Democratic land
slide which occurred in last Tues
days election. a few Republicans
won out-as for instance the entire
state ticket-with the governorship
in doubt. Uinta county only elected
two candidates-which was truly q
great surprise to both parties. The
Republicans also elected Winter to
Congress. and the Democrats Ken
drick to tho senate-dividing honors.
But We should not sulk in our
tents OF cherish Ill feeling-as It Is
the will OF the people. by which we
must abide.
All we trust is that things work
out 10 the majority hope for-and
let rs all remember that behind the
clouds the sun still shines."-Evans-

PROFICIENCY

A city business man was very keen
on having proficient clerks in his
employ. Before a clerk could enter
his office he was required to pass a
written examination on his knowl-
edge of business.
At one examination one of the
questions was: WHO formed the
first company"
A certain bright youth was a lit
tie puzzled at this, but was not to be
floored. He wrote:
Noah successfully floated q COM
pany while the rest of the world was
in liquidation"
He passed.-London Answers.

ELECTION AFTERMATH
(Continued from Page 2)

The defeat of so many Of the leg
islative and county ticket in Sherid-
an county came as a big surprise to
the Republicans, while the majority
given Senator Kendrick over Mr..
Mondell, was equally surprising to
the Democrats.
However, it is the will OF the elect
or, and by 1t we must all stand. for
the better interests of Sheridan coun-
ty and the state, and the hope of all
will be that in a change OF admins
tration, that the good work may be
continued in retaining Sheridan
county as one Of the best counties in
the state.
The Republicans will prove them
selves as good losers as they have
been victors. Six years ago this fall
Senator Kendrick carried the legisla-
tive and county tickets for the
Democratic party largely with him in
and he had done 1t again this year.
-Four years ago, and two years
ago, the Republicans INT back
with a victorious county and legisla-
tive ticket, and being normally Re-
publican, 1t is not unreasonable to
believe that victory may follow an
other campaign.
To the victors belong the patron
age, and may their wisdom prove the
confidence the people of Sheridan
county has reposed in them. -
Sheridan Post.
A Splendid Example
The Sheridan Enterprise, Senator
Hendricks newspaper. paused from
its gleeful gloating over the fact that
a few Democrats had been elected in
Wyoming and elsewhere, to pay its
respects to the loyal and patriotic
voters who valued the franchise
enough to endure some personal loss
and discomfort in order to cast a bal
lot and also to the law-breaking
gentry which 1t seems infests every
community, saying in part that ut Is
interesting to know that n respect
ed Sheridan resident, a man 81 years
OF age, now employed out of town,
sacrificed three days pay and met
his own travelling expenses in order
to exercise his right to vote. This
splendid example of good citizenship
stands as a constrast to the position
OF the gamblers, who, contrary to
the laws of wyoming. were openly
betting in public places. Several of
these undesirable citizens appeared
in the city the day before election
and it is unnecessary to state whom
they supported.
I'VE hope that the election Of a
Democratic sheriff, prosecuting at
torney and county commissioners
will mean the end of these leeches on
society. and 1t will be the aim Of
The Enterprise to see that officials
of our party shall enforce the law.
L~awbreakers are a benefit to neither
party and we have tolerated them too
long"
