CHICAGO, Sept. 24.-Wheat market to-
day was dull and that is about all that
could be said about it. Prices covered only

UNION ST0CKYARDS, Chicago (Monday),
Sept. 24.-Heavy runs were again reported
in all branches of the live stock trade to-
day, and bids were lower from the start.
Of the estimated run of cattle. about $4,000
were westerns, and these gave medium
grade natives hard competition. Only
load or so of cattle arrived to packers dur
ing the day, while less than 1000 sheep
were billed that way. OF the reported
2724 cars Of live stock for the local yards
about $50 had not arrived at the opening
of the trade. Sellers had more than 5000
hogs held over from last week, and the
market was lower from the outset
Receipts were So 900 cattle, $4,000 hogs,
~, 600 sheep and 5000 calves.
Cattle trade was uneyenly lower. Some
medium and plain steers showed a decline
of more than twenty-five cents. Western
run went above the first estimate, and
this hurt the trade. Strictly prime heavy
native beef steers were quoted at $l2.5O@
1918. While some good yearlings went at
$40. 25@l0.75. The supply of native cows
and heiferS was light compared to the
whole rum and values were steady to %

COTTON

NEW YORK, Sept. 24.--F'irst cot
ton prices were seven points higher
to three points lower. but there was
buying on reports of unsettled
weather in the south and the steady
showing of the later Liverpool ca
bles, This sent the active months
about 10 to Is points net higher
during the early trading with Octo'
Der selling up to 29.4o and January
to 2S.49. Private Liverpool cables
reported a quiet market with re-
cent sellers rebuying because of un.
favorable crop reports from tho
southwest. Brokers with New Or
leans, Liverpool and domestic trade
connections were among the early
BUYERS here, but offerings increased
shortly after the call and there were
reactions of 20 to so points under
selling which appeared to come
partly from the south.
Runlors that cotton was to be
shipped here from the south for de-
have accounted for some of the scat
tered selling on the mid-morning de-
cline, which carried October off to
90. % and January to 2S.17, or about
20 point net lower. A private crop
report making the condition 500 was
without any apparent effect on the
market. Trading was quiet late IN
the forenoon, and the market at mid
day was or 10 points up from the
lowest on covering promoted by the
for unsettled weather, with
showers in the southwest.
There was continued scattered
liauidation which sent prices off to
1887 for October and 2815 for jan
uary of about % to % points net low
er during the early afternoon. Trad
ing was quiet at the decline, AMI
prices were a few points up from the

Once in while we see some useful, well nigh indispensable person called by Death while the world is cluttered with use less bits of wreckage that the the community would be better off with out. Why this should be so will never be revealed until the veil separating the finite from the infinite shall have been lifted, and His secrets revealed The average community could stand half dozen funerals year and be the better therefor. Looking at it from a community standpoint the un- dertaker is loafing on his job. The man who constantly criticises every act done for the betterment of the community; the merchant who yells buy at home" while he buys Outside; the citizens who spends his money with SQueers and Sawbuck, and crit icises his home council for not keep ing the city's streets and walks in better condition; these all could be quietly garnered by the grim reaper, and we would be better o1
 But the pest, like the poor, is al, ways with us, and always will be on hand to nullify the efforts of the sin cere and hardworking citizen. We can only tolerate him until we can move to some place where they abi deth not; which more than likely is the grave

VETS HAVE HOPES

The hope of the Vets in the presi- dential campaign aeXt year is Gov ernor Al Smith Of New York. The hope of the Drys Of lhe Bourbon camp is McAdoo. ,ll,e man who scram- bled the railways and wasted several billions of the peoples money making himself solid with the unionists of the country.
 Tom Taggart, Democratic boss and a liberal of liberals, told Governor Al Smith at Taggart's French Lick resort that there are not enough wet votes in the country to make any man president. But Al had come from a city where the appetite for strong drink is such that it consumes about 75,0O0 cases of beer and liquors daily and he did not believe the Indiana politician was in touch with public sentiment. He talked the matter over with former Chairman Norman Mack,
 
 that if he ran he could be nominated and elected, Harding, Ford or McAdoo to the contrary.
 McAdoo says little publicly, but his friends think he is more than willing to be a candidate and they hope he will be able if nominated, to make the people forget what a mess he made of government affairs, while he was helping his father-in-law run things a few years ago.
 Smiths packers believe there will be enough Wet Republicans leave the party to support him against Presi- dent Harding to carry doubtful states. They say the South will vote for a Wet Democrat rather than break off from the party, despite the fact that the South is decidedly dry and getting drier every year. But the alleged Solid South has been cracked a cou- pie of times and it is not so solid as in the days when the waving of the bloody shirt" decided elections.
 President Harding will have no op- position for the nomination unless something like an earthquake in poli- tics is experienced soon. He will not be supported by LaFollette, nor by a few other pseudo Republicans, but this kind of opposition only empha- sizes the fact that Republicans have long ceased to count upon these radi- calls and will be better pleased to have their support thrown elsewhere.

MIXING MOONSHINE IN SOAP SuDS FAILS TO SAVE
 SkAGIT COUNTY RESIDENT

MOUNT VERNON, July 24-Mixing moonshine in a tub of soapsuds failed to save F. J. Cope, of Skiyou, from con viction in court here yesterday. Cope drew an assessment of $10O and costs for violation of the liquor law.

The suds were so strong, the deputies admitted that the odor of the liquor was lost, but there remained the jar with the tell-tale smell and a few drops of homemade brew.
