Political DemagOgues.

Brigadier General Dawes an
nounces that in his candidacy for
the vice presidency, he is going af-
ter the political demagogue, and
that he will ask no quarter and
will give none.
Irrespective of politics, if he is
in any measure successful, he will
perform public service that can
scarcely be estimated.
The political demagogue is the
curse of the United States. The
man who will promise anything,
when he knows in his heart that
it is not for the best interests of
the country, merely for the selfish
purpose of maintaining himself in
office, is not worthy of public con-
fidence, and politics will continue
to be in disrepute among the
great mass of the people as long
as he has any voice.
The demagogue misleads and
prostitutes public opinion by di-
verting attention from vital mat
ters of government with appeals
to class hatreds. He is truly I'M
American and may his clan grow
less as people awaken to the fact
that he is an evil genius who will
tear down American institutions
and ideals, rather than build them
up, as he makes it appear he will.
Gen. Dawes says that political
demogoguery is a curse the world
over. The world has seen what
grasping, unprincipled political
leaders have done to Europe.
The same fate awaits the Unit
ed States unless the people who
put men in public office come to
a realization that everything a
candidate office says is not always
true.-Ex.

The Grange a Pioneer.

One of the most valuable phases
of Grange work in the country is
the leadership that has been pro-
vided in setting going other or
CARNATIONS outside itself, which
prove of service to the farmers
and the rural interests. Among
the latter are included livestock
shipping associations, organlza-
tions of fruit and poultry men,
the banding together of the potato
growers in Maine, the cranberry
raisers in Massachusetts,, the to-
bacco farmers in Ohio, the bean
growers in Michigan, and the
dairymen in many states, particu-
larly New York, Ohio, Pennsylvan-
la, and Michigan.
Most of these associations, as
we'll as a great number of COM
modify organizations, which buy
and sell on a large scale for the
farmer, have been organized in
Grange halls, as the result of
Grange call, and with the leaders
in the new movements almost in
variably trained by their Grange
experience.
Besides doing its own work
along legislative, educational, So
cial, and community service lines,
the Grange has rendered incalcul-
able benefit to the farmers in hun
dreds of localities by initiating
and promoting these outside agen-
cies and organizations, which have
put real money into the farmers
pockets and which could not have
been carried through had not the
Grange influence and energy been
behind them. Grange halls every
where are community centers for
the promotion of any project
which will be of local benefit.

The GubernatoriaI Situation.

The published announcement of
Merlin Hull of Black River Falls,
that he will not be candidate
for governor, and the withdrawal
of Andrew Kreutzer, of Wausau,
as a candidate for that office
leaves the field narrowed down to
three candidates just at present,
Governor Blaine, Lieut.. Gov. Com
ings, and A. R. Hirst.
Mr.. Hulls statement that he
will not be a candidate will be re-
ceived with regret on the part of
a large number of warm support
ers who had looked to him as the
most logical standard bearer in
Wlsconsin's chaotic situation. In
his announcement Mr.. Hull says
he does not feel he could consist
emily enter the campaign under
the handicap it would be necessary
for him to meet, even though he
has received the assurance of a
large number of people that his
candidacy would meet with a cor
dial reception.
MY conclusion not to be a can
didate," says Mr.. Hull, will in no
way lessen my interest in public
affairs. | shall continue to give
as much of my time and attention
as my limited means will permit
in the fight for honest politics
without which the fight for hon
est government is impossible. The
will of the people should be the
law of the land. The common
people are honest and some day
they will rise in their might and
discard the machine rule and pol
itical chicanery which have always
been the source of graft and cor
ruption and always will be"

FOREIGN BOMBS
WOOL REVIEW

BOSTON, Oct. 31.-The Commercial Bulletin tomorrow will say of the wool market:
 "The demand for wool has been of very fair proportion during the week and prices show a strengthening ten dency in this market, although actual quotations can hardly be advanced very much on most descriptions and where advances have been made, they have been offset in g. measure by the grant ing of January 1 dating. Some secured descriptions, however, are dearer. The clothing and manufacturing situation Is not greatly changed, except for a fur ther slight advance on goods.
 "In the west contracting has become more general with prices generally from 45 to 46 cents for the best wools in Wyp- ming and Montana and 42 and 43 cents in Utah, while 50 cents and better has been paid in Texas for 12 months wool. Up to 53 cents was paid for twelve months wools in San Angelo this week.
 "The foreign primary markets are slowly hardening. Yorkshire Is feeling more confident consequent upon the English election results.
 "Mohair is very steady. Prices in Texas touched 6S cents for straight hair and 80 cents for kid hair"

BOND VALUES MOVE HIGHER Trading Expands Under Vigorous Advance In

NEW YORK;. Oct. S1.-Bond prices moved upward today as trading expanQ- ed under the influence of Q vigorous advance in the, stock market. Son- tinued easy money stimulating specu'a- tive activity, which was reflected n higher quotations for low and medium priced railroad liens.
 Additional evidence that the conserva- tive victory in the British election had been favorably received in 1inanc1M ctr- cles was given by the advance in United Kingdom issues, which sold at the htgh- est levels of the year. Contrasting pr1ce movements marked trading in other foreign obligations. Brazil CemtrAl Railway 7s moved up 1A.

COTTON LOWER ON LIQUIDATION Market Closes Steady At Net Declines Of 43
 To B Points

NEW YORK, Oct. 3I.-The cotton market was lower today under week. end liquidation, prompted by larger prt- vate crop estimates and talk of fall ing off in the spot demand after the turn of the month. January sold down to 22.95c, or 53 points net lowerH The market closed steady at net declines of 43 to 53 points.
 The market opened barely steady at a decline oB.10 to 16 points because of rela- lively easy Liverpool cables. An early crop report estimating the condition at 55.7 and the indicated yield at 12,495,O 900 bales, compared with an indication Of 12, ,0SO, ,OO0 a month ago, seemed to at tract comparatively little attention Some southern hedge selling was re- ported, however, and while the trade was a moderate buyer there did not appear to be much support otherwise. As a result, prices eased off under real izing for over the weekend for election day and the selling became more active during mid-afternoon on reports that New Orleans firm estimated the crop at Ia, 100 ,0OO bales. Other factors included a bearish view of the weekend figures and report of a slackening spet demand in the suth, but trading was not general and the market was comparatively quiet on the decline, which carried December
  prices represented net losses Of about 50 to 53 points and reactions of 100 to 10S points from the high price of last Tues day. The close was only shade up from the lowest on covering.
 The crop figures from, New Orleans served to revive the talk of 13,000 ,000 bale crop possibility among some of the local traders, and while the two other private reports so far issued have been below 12,5O0 OO0 bales the larger figures evidently caused some uncertainty as to the probable showing of the govern ment report at the end of next week.
 Private cables reported a steady un- dertone in Liverpool on trade calling.

WHEAT SCORES
 LIVELY IPTURN
Advance Due To Buying By House With Eastern
 Connections

CHICAGO, Oct. 31.-Buying on the part of houses with eastern connections led to a lively upturn in wheat prices today after considerable weakness dur ing the early dealings. Closing quota tions on wheat were firm at the same as yesterdays finish to cent higher. December, $1.4N 01.41%, and May, $1.47% @1.47k, with corn ranging from % decline to 5sc gain, oats a shade to M@Ac off and provisions varying from 45c setback to rise of ZIG.
 Eastern interests were credited with bushels of wheat. The buying began at a time when the market was show ing the natural bearish effect of much lower quotations from Liverpool ana Argentine forecasts pointing to likeli- hood of beneficial rains. Price upturns which accompanied the increased buy ing were given further impetus as a result of day weather reports from west ern, southwestern and eastern sections of the domestic winter wheat belt. Some notice also was given of Russian ad- vices that government plans to export grain had been abandoned.
 Failure to maintain top prices in the wheat market, however, developed near the end of the board of trade session. OWueTS WHO dttcHuptcu to ACdh1o PLoA- it's found 1t difficult to unload. One reason that was given for this was a Berlin report which became current that some wheat was in danger of being sold at a sacrifice on account of tnsuf- ficient room for storage. On the other hand, a notable decrease of arrivals of domestic wheat southwest was apparent.
 Although favorable weather condt- tions brought about rather heavy sell ing of corn, the market proved quickly to wheat strength. Oats fol- lowed corn, but Jagged on the upturns. Weakness of hog values eased most de- liveries of provisions.

MUCH STRENGTH
 DEMONSTRATED
 BY STOCK MART
Speculative Leaders Quo ted At Highest Prices
 Since Early October

NEW YORK, Oct. 31.-Stock prices developed impressive strength in today's market, which shook off the restraint recently imposed by election uncertain ties. Net gains of 1 to points were scattered throughout the list, with prac- tically all the speculative leaders quoted at the highest prices since early Oc- tober.
 Although public participation was on . broadening scale, the large bulk of the trading continued in the hands of professional operators with short cov- ering playing an important part in the days transactions. Twenty-Five issues attained new peak prices for the year including American Smelting United States Cast Iron Pipe, May Department Stores, Sears, Roebuck, Montgomery Ward, United Drug, Commercial Sol- vents "A" and "B," Loose-Wiles Bis cult and Famous Players preferred.
 Spirited bidding developed for the standard industrials, in some of which . large short interest is supposed to exist. American Can, selling ex-divi- dend 1A, was lifted to 1359s, which rep resents net gain of nearly points on the day. Baldwin advanced 3S points to 121%. United States Steel common closed 1A higher at 1097s after selling slightly above that figure.
 While industrials and specialties were
 
 developed for some of the railroad shares. Southern railway, Atlantic Coast Line, Chesapeake and Ohio is- sues, Chicago and Northwestern, Mis- souri Pacific preferred, St. Louis South western, Wabash preferred and Western Pacific preferred closed at net gains of 1 to 2 points, while the Katy" issues, Colorado and Southern and Pittsburg and West Virginia preferred broke through their previous top prices of the year.
 Mail order and merchandising issues continued their uninterrupted advance, Associated Dry Goods common stand ing out with a net gain of 5h points at 128A. Sears, Roebuck showed a net gain of points at 123h. General Bak- ing scared points to 153. Other indi- vidual strong spots were General Elec- tric, Union Tank Car, United States In- dustrial Alcohol preferred and Virginia Railway and Power. all up to points.
 The only outstanding weak spot in the list was Mexican Seaboard Oil, which broke points to 20h on reports that some of the Mexican wells had run into salt water. Woolworth dropped about a point on profit taking.
 Call money held steady at per cent all day with plenty of funds available at that figure. The time money market was quiet with no change in rates. Com mercial paper was fairly active within a range of Sk to 3N per cent.
 Foreign exchanges maintained a firm tone, demand sterling ruling above $452 and French francs around 5A cents. Part of the recent demand for sterling is reported to be in anticipation of the upturn to London of British capital which migrated when the labor minis try took control.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 31.-The cotton market was reactionary today and trad ing was narrow during the greater part of the session, easing off gradually, on pre-election liquidation, evering up for over the holidays and selling in small way based on increasing crop news. The weakness became more decided in the afternoon on bearish weekend sta stitistics, rather liberal hedge selling and the uncovering of some stop loss orders on the scale down. The lowest levels of the day with December 59 points be- low the close of yesterday were reached in the late afternoon but the market experienced a slight rally in the last moment of trading, the near month closing 53 points net lower for the day.
 At the start Liverpool cables were lower than due and opening trades here were to 10 points below the previous close. Prices eased off further right after the opening on continued weak ness in Liverpool but prices gradually receded until December traded down to 23.07c, January to 2309c and March to 23.3Oc, or 26 to 30 points net lower. There was a slight rally of about 10 points a little before noon and the larger mill takings for the week Of 391.- GOO bales, than had been expected. The market turned decidedly easier in the afternoon, the decline helped by e crop of 13,100,000 bales issued by a local firm. At the, lowest December and January traded 53 to 59 points below the previous close. The close was a lit- tie above the lows, showing losses for the day of 4s to 53 points.
 The main features of the day were the tendency to increase crop views and the bearish weekly statistics, the into sight showing 717,053 bales and the vis- ible supply of American increasing 326.- S79 bales against an increase during the corresponding week last year of 173,142 balse. Exports for the day totalled 64,- a29 bales and for the wek 271, ,954.
 This market will be closed tomorrow, All Saints Day.
