STOCK MARKET HAS
 SERIOUS SETBACK
Prices Do Backaip and Sell
 Downward

New York, Jan. 12 R-The stock market displayed complete reversal of form today, selling down rather sharply during the morning, but turning upward again In the early afternoon. Early losses in the active issues ran from 1 to 3 points, but most of these were substantial ly reduced or wiped out in the afternoon rally.
 Easy credit conditions. reflected In the low renewal rate of 4 per cent for money, and the possibility of an early reduction in the New York federal reserve rediscount rate, furnished the basis for opera tions for the advance. Recent sell ing apparently had strengthened the technical position of the market and failed to disclose any inherent weak ness.
 Placing of the Woolworth stock on a $5 annual basis, following the recent declaration of stock divi- dend. was regarded as q bullish fac tor, both the "old" and new" stocks moving up over 2 points. The weekly steel trade reviews reported a small increase in orders, but steel and pig iron prices declined.
 Brokers continued to report a heavy investment demand. but 1t centered largely in the rails. Atchi- son was again the leader in that group, selling close to 16S, while Wheeling and Lake Erie preferred moved up 21a points to 51A, the highest price since 1925, Hud. son and Manhattan, common and preferred, touched 4S IA and S01s, respectively, the highest prices since they were listed in October, 1924.
 Heavy trading in Anaconda cop- per was one of the few features of the industrial list. Heavy liquida- ton of the motors was believed to have been inspired by the fear of further price cuts.

HAS LIGHTNIN' ROD UP

= 49, Ex-Gov Frank o. Lowden of Illinois is in 6
recerMive mood TO accept the nomination for Pres
>iIent on the Republican ticket in 1928.
A committee of the Iowa legislature met with
Mr. Lowden and he informed them that if there ap-
peared to be strong demand for his candidacy in
the eleven midwest states he would allow the use
of his name, although he preferred to remain pri
vate citizen
Mr. Lowien addressed the Minnesota editors
at Minneapolis in February, 1926, and this speech
was taken by the newspaper men as bid for the
Presidential nomination.
After returning from the Illinois interview, A
C. Gustafson, chief clerk of the Iowa House, gave
out the following statement:
"Former Governor Lowden expressed
his personal desire to continue in private
life and that he felt he might accomplish
more for the good of agriculture pri-
vate citizen. However, he said if it could
be shown his candidacy would tend to i'm
prove the status of agriculture and serve
to equaze it with other great issues, he
would forego his own desires, not only be-
cause agriculture is in dire need of relief,
but because continuation of the present
conditions of agriculture eventually will
spell ruin for all industries in the country.
"Mr. Lowden assured the committee
that if the movement requesting his candi-
dacy, which started in Iowa, would spread
into a sufficient number OF agricultural
states of the central west, he would give
such request his serious consideration"

LIKE TO BE STUNG

Apparently there is great proportion of
Americans who like to be "stung," judging
from the success that adj fake plans are meet
ing with, says the Bemidji Pioneer No coun-
try contributes as generously to "gold brick
and promotion schemes; few countries would
tolerate the sale of inferior merchandise
through the mails in the way that ties and
stockings are being peddled and by far the
most regretable is the willingness of the peo-
pie to experiment with their health by flock
ing to the shrine of every new cult and 'sm!"
The Mortified News comments on the chances
that are taken in that vicinity by the residents
who patronized a pair of fakirs travelling
throughout the country, when it says:
The Goodhue county grand jury re-
turned indictments last week against

Grated in that county several months ago

becomes necessary for the state to step in
and furnish protection.

WoMAN'S RIGHTS" PROTECTED

Jim Baker, Renville countys county attorney,
when the commissioners met in January suggested
that names of women citizens be left off the
Petit Jury panel for the spring term of the District
Court, giving his reason that there were several
nasty coming up for trial and that he did
not wish to enbarrass the womanhood of his county
by forcing them to do jury service these cases.
No sooner had the commissioners complied
with Mr.. Bakers request than the cry was raised
that the women of Renville county were being de-
prived of their rights" The matter was taken be-
fore the Judge of the District Court who ruled The
county commissioners were wrong in following the
county attorneys request The matter will be taken
District Court will be upheld, and the dear women
of Renville county will be permitted to sit next to
some strange man in the jury box and listen to
every detail of the filthy proceeding.
1t will likely be cold day in July before Jim
Baker will make another attempt to protect the
womanhood of his county.

Mildred, the little two-year-old
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. J. M.
Foss, living south of Winnebago
City, narrowly escaped death last
week Tuesday, as the result of
eating sample pills, which had
been received through the mail
that morning. Through the prompt
administration of an emetic the
child's life was saved. Legislation
against sending samples of pills
and patent medicines through the
mails is of more necessity than
many of the bills brought before
the law makers. Many of the pills
sent out are possibly harmless, but
we do know that small children are
very apt to eat them, believing
them to be candy, sometimes with
near fatal results as in this case.
