Corn lost fractionally just after
the opening, on large receipts and
continued fair weather over the belt.
During the morning, there was little
change from the opening figures
Toward mid-Session, however, rallies
followed forecasts of rain or snow
over the belt were released; reports
from the Argentine indicated stocks
Of corn there are almost exhauted;
and with prices here very near an
export basis. some corn was re-
ported taken for foreign interests
this morning.
Oats was little changed in a dull
and featureless market. Receipts to-
tailed 70 cars, and cash oats was &c
lower.
Provisions held around steady.

In the Stock Market
(Ss Thomson & NicKinnon)
IEW YORK. Jan. 23.=Let

NGW O-OIA, jail. AO.-LSO us
make certain OF the character of
the present stock market. From all
that TRANSFERRED last week detect
one significant thing. and that is
the buying power that is ever pres
cnt when conditions warrant. The
conditions that prevailed last week
were not such as to revive interest
and a demand for all stocks. We
nave no bull market in the general
understanding of that phrase, but
we nave a market that is favorable
for individual issues Of special merit
and, the merit is brought to the at
tention of the public, buyers are
ready and able to respond. But
these are the exceptions. The mar
ket as a whole, we believe is still
under the influence of a financial
change that is taking place and be-
Jieve will result in considerable ir-
regularity for some time. The best
things that we see in the maket for
this week are the stocks that were
most prominent last week, particu-
larry the steels and the motors.

C. 0. P. EDITOR
LAUDS JACKSON
IN LIFE SKETCH
Committee Backs Article in
Defense of Governors
Administration.

Charges resulting in the indict-
ment of Governor Ed Jackson are
blamed upon political enemies
who could not control his appoint
ments or otherwise dictate the pol
icies of his Office" in a laudatory
sketch of the Governors life and
administration handed the press to-
day by E. E. Neal Of NobleSville,
Indiana Republican Editorial AS
ISOLATION vice president.
What kind of man has right
to be Governor of State?" is the
caption of the eulogy, which, an ac-
companying letter explains, lis
vouched for by a committee of Re-
pu6licanS which appre ciates the
value of the press"
"The object OF the article is to
get before thinking people," says the
letter, "a few facts regarding the
intimate life of Governor Jackson
never before published"
ClteS FrlVate Lie
Setting out to prove the injustice
of accusations against the Governor,
the articles traces Jacksons private
and public life from boyhood to the
executive chair.
He loves boys" says the article,
"and has contributed largely to the
education of several dependent boys
and has adopted one in his own
family.
I'm speaking Of his methods of
handling the cases Of bays while cir
cult judge he stated that in but one
instance was he compelled to make a
boy serve his Plainfield sentence.
This was the case of a boy, who
was rapidly developing criminal
tendencies, and after buying the boy
horse and cart from his personal
finances, and getting him JOB haul
ing coal, the boy persisted in being
dishonest, he revoked his parole.
Defends Administration
"He regretted this necessity so
much that one day, when boarding
car for indianapolis, he learned
the boy was being taken to Plain
field on the same car. On account
of his sympathy for the boy, he Left
the car and took a later one for h.
own journey.
There are many men today VII
owe their useful citizenship to the
fact that Governor Jackson cid be-
lieve in boys, never 700 busy to
reach out a helping hand to them,
though it frequently cost him dear
ly in dollars and cents. He believed
the soul of boy was a priceless
gem worth saving"
Another anecdote is related to
prove Governor jackson has a high
sense of fairness"
Some months ago he was hunt
ing with party of friends in south
ern Indiana when, Intentionally or
otherwise, one of the party shot
hen, the property Of a nearby
farmer.
The next day, unknown to the
others, the Governor looked up the
owner of the fowl and paid for it,"
Jackson'S administration is re-
iewed and defended.
Neal has not divulged names of
other members Of the committee
sponsoring the publication.
