Union Stock Yards, South Omaha,
Nebraska. October 10, 1916.—The
week opened with a large run of cat
tle, some 597 cars, or about 15,000
head being reported in up to noon.
Strictly choice corn fed beeves
are quotable around $10.00@10.69, and
the fair to good, 1,050 to 1,300-pound
beeves are selling largely around
$S.75@9.50. Notwithstanding tha
sharp advance in cows and heifers
last weiek and the liberal offerings
Monday there was a vigorous demand
from all quarters and the market
ruled active and stronger all around
for she stock.
Quotations on cattle; Good to
choice beeves, $!0.00@10.60; fair to
good beeves, $8.75 @9.75; common to
fair beeves, $6.50@8.50; good to
choice heifers, S6.75@7.25; good to
choice cows, $6.40@7.00; fair to good
cows, $5.75@6.40; canners and cut
ters, $4.50@5.50; veal calves. $8.00@
11.00; bulls, $5.-5@6.75.
Real good hogs were comparatively
scarce on Monday's market, and as
shippers had orders for some loads of
that sort, the competition was very
keen on most of the desirable stuff
that was here, order buyers taking a
few loads on a strong to 5@10c higher
basis A top of $9.45 was paid for
one load, this price being the highest
for a week Bulk of the offerings
moved at a spread of $9.10@9.20, with
the top, as noted above, at $9.45.
Sheep and lamb receipts for Mon
day were very liberal, supplies
amounting to 137 cars or about 38,000
head. While the fast lamb trade was
a little slow in starting, it was a
sharply higher affair. Sellers went af
ter a big advance, and while packers
look their time about it they finally
gave in, paying prices that were 15@
25c higher than last week’s close. One
shipment of good lambs topped the
market at $10.25. Feeding lambs sold
about steady with last week’s close,
and some traders thought that if any
thing values were stronger, but there
was no quotable change. Feeding ewes
were sacrce, most of the offerings go
ing for breeders. _

SHIFTY WILSON ON
COLONEL S BODKIN
Elusive Balancer on String of
Words Pinned Down by Proof
That in Fifteen Public Ut
terances He Took Forty
One Different Positions
on Preparedness.
EACH STAND CONTRADICTED
FROM 1 TO 5 OF THE OTHERS
Democratic Candidate Said That Our
Army Was Ample and That We Did
Not Have Enough Troops to Patrol
the Border; That We were on the
Verge of a Maelstrom and That
There Was No Critical Situation;
That the National Guard Would
Not Do and Then That It Must Do.
In the fourteen months extending
from December 8th, 1014, to February
10th, 1910, there were fifteen mes
sages, letters and speeches of Presi
dent Wilson which 1 have read. In
these fifteen messages, letters and
speeches, during those fourteen
months. President Wilson took forty
one different positions about prepared
ness and the measures necessary to
secure it; aud each of these forty-one
positions contradicted from one to six
of the others. In many of his speeches
' the weasel words of one portion of
tile speech took all tile meaning out
of the words used in another portion
of that speech; and these latter words
themselves had a weasel significance
as regards yet other words. He ar
gued for preparedness, and against
preparedness. He stated that our
army was ample; and that we did
not have enough troops to patrol the
Mexican border in time of pence. He
! said the world was on tire, and that
| sparks were liable to drop anywhere
I and cause us to burst into flame; and
I lie also said that there was no iinme
j diate danger. He said that there was
; no sudden crisis; and then again that
! lie did not know what a single day
; would bring forth. He said that we
; were on the verge of a maelstrom:
i ;.nd then that there was no special
j or critical situation. He said the dan
j ger was constant and immediate; and
! also that we were not threatened from
j any quarter. He said that there was
I no fear among us; and also that we
I were in daily danger of seeing the
j vital interest and honor of the country
| menaced and the flag of the United
I 8rates stained with impunity. He
] eaid that we were in very critical
danger of being involved in the great
European struggle; and also that
there was no need to dicuss the
I question of defense, or to get uenciu
or excited about it. In one and the
same speech, he said that a sufficient
number of men would volunteer, and
that if they did not be would lie
jashamed of America; and he also said
'that he did not know, of any law
which laid upon them the duty of com
iing into the army, if it should be
necessary to call for volunteers. He
,said that we needed ,">00,000 volunteers,
and that if there was any legitimate
.criticism of this demand it was be
cause it was too small; and as soon
as Congressman Hay objected to the
plan, he promptly abandoned it. IF
said that the National Guard was not
the proper body upon which to rely;
and then not only changed his own
mind but forced his own Secretary of
War out of his cabinet, because this |
Secretary possessed less flexible con
victions and was unable instantly to
reverse himself when going at full
speed.—From the Speech of Colonel
Roosevelt at Battle Creek, Michigan,
in Behalf of Mr. Hughes.
WILSON DEEMED IT FUTILE
TO STAND FIRMLY.
President Wilson seeks to jus
tify himself on the ground that
it was “futile” and dangerous
to “stand firmly.” This is an
appeal that can with equal truth
be made by every soldier who
runs away in battle. He further
alleges his belief that the cause
he championed "has the sanc
tion of the judgment of society 1
in its favor.” I remember thir
ty-odd years ago in the Black
Hills a local vigilance commit
tee which was in doubt about
hanging a suspected wrongdoer.
While they were discussing the
matter, there appeared over the
neighboring divide a frowsy, el
derly horseman in a linen dus
ter, who promptly galloped to
wards them waving his arms
and shouting “Hang him! Hang
him!” The leader of the vigi
lantes at once asked the frowsy
stranger what he knew of the
facts, whereupon the stranger
answered: “I do not know any
thing about the fac’.l and I nev
er saw the man before; but
there’s eleven of you and only
one of him, and I believe in ma
jority rule!” This is merely a
picturesque paraphrase of what
Mr. Wilson calls action under
“the sanction of society.” It ex
emplifies the principle upon
which President Wilson has act
ed in those public matters, in
ternal and external, where he
was threatened with the use of
force.—From the Speech of Col
onel Roosevelt at Battle Creek.
Michigan, in Behalf of Mr.
Hughes.
There’s at least one satisfaction
in the European war. All sides are
victorious.
The fellow who thinks he knows
it all usually knows less than the one
who admits that he knows nothing.
Silence is golden, especially when
your alibi is not satisfactory to your
wife.

ell do 1 mind the story.” said
i Finnegan. “Balaam was a highbrow
1 that kunwed less than his Jackass. He
took an office to curse the people.
The Jackass saved them. 'Tis all in
Number Twinty-two. Och. hone! ’Tis
: • different these times. The Jackass
knew better till Balaam tamed him.
“ ‘Lave me riile ye.’ says Balaam, ‘an'
I’ll make ye the biggest Ass in the
world.’
“ ‘Great,’ says the Ass; ‘what d’ye
feed?’
“ ‘Pork,’ says Balaam.
“ ‘Me savior,’ says the Ass.
“So Balaam mounts. But soon the
lack balks.
“ ‘Phwat is It?’ says Balaam.
“‘Snakes,’ says the Ass; ‘Ut looks
like the jawbone uv me mother.’
“ ‘G’wan.’ says Balaam, hittin’ the
Ass a clip. ‘ 'tis me furren' policy,’
he says.
“ ‘Phwat’s ut for?’ axes the Ass.
“ ‘Ut deflnds the nashun,’ says Ba- j
laam.
*’ ‘How?’ says the Ass. -
“‘Faith;’ says Balaam, ‘ut takes a
bigger Ass than you to know that.
Lave it to Brine,’ says Balaam to the
Ass; an’ the Jack walks on medita
tin’.
“ ’Hee. haw,’ says the Ass, balkin'
an’ kickin’.
“‘What now?’ says Balaam.
“ ’Divil a Jackass ever seen the like,’
says the Ass. ‘Ut could be a frog,’
says he. “for ut stands up in front,
and sits down behind; an’ 'tis mos’ly
mouth.' says the Ass. ‘Ut has white
feathers,’ says the Jack, ‘wtd yaller
streaks, that changes.’ he says, ‘to
** cry Crooz Bed. or Niagary Blue, an’
now they’re Cnrrysall Yaller again.'
says he. ‘Hivins, have I been drink
in?' screams the Ass to Balaam.
“ ‘Saints be praised,’ says Balaam.
‘Me Watchful Waitin’ can still change
its mind.' he says. ‘G'wan, where
glory waits.’ he says. ‘G'wan. in the
service uv Mankind.’ says Balaam to
the Ass, touching him up. An' the
Ass shuffles ahead, wavin’ his ears in
admiration.
“ ‘Hee-haw! Hee-haw!’ says the
Jack, rearin' up wid his eyes bulgin'.
“ Thwat’s grippin' ye now?’ says
Balaam, impashunt like.
‘“I dunno,’ says the Ass. ‘Ut looks
like the Flyin’ Dutchman with a So
cialist Crew,’ he says.
"Tis me Ship Bill,’ says Balaam.
‘Side step to the right,' he says;
‘side step to the left,' says he. wel
tin' him. ‘Back tip,' says Balaam,
near wrenchin' off the Jack’s jaw.
’Now forward for the Merchant Ma
rine an' fifty millyun pork,’ says Ba
laam wid a shower uv blows; an’ the
Ass goes on thremblin’.
“ rV\ ah-hee! Wali-hee! Wah-hee!’
says the Jack, shyin’ so he near
threw his rider.
“ Til learn ye to shy at me Naval
Bill,’ says Balaam, lar-rupln’ the
baste so he cud scarce stand.
“‘Ye can't pass ut widout wearin’
Republican clothes,' says the Jack in
a coarse whisper.
“ ‘Ye Ass.’ says Balaam, ‘Don't ye
know that anny does is betther nor '
nakedness? G'wan,’ says Balaam, in
tones uv thunder. So the poor baste
lopes on, limpin’ wid pain.
“I’ve not time to tell ye all the ad
ventures they had. but they kep’ oi}
over rough roads, now an’ then cros-i
sin* a ditch on a wan term plank,
which made even Balaam unaisy, i
Iviry time the Jack kicked, he got)
short rations an’ a wallop. So when 1
the journey was near over, the poop '
haste was all in. and far too proud ta
fight. Any Jack-Ass can be that
when he's licked.
FINNEGAN’S PHILOSOPHY
BALAAM.
"an stormy nignt, tne Jack blooms
into a harmony like a Dimycrat Tariff
Hymn played on a gaspipe wid the
feet.
“ ‘Phwat ails ye now?' calls Balaam,
clubbin’ him wid both hands.
“ ‘Nivver did I pass the like,’ yells
the Ass, sweating and thremblin’. ‘Ut
says ut’s an eight hour law. Oh, phwat
is ut?’ screams the Ass to Balaam,
feebly waggin' his ears.
“ ‘I dinno phwat ut Is meself,’ says
Balaam, ‘but I know phwat ut’s got,’
Balaam says.
“ ‘Phwat?’ axes the poor Ass.
“ ’Five hundther thousand votes,*
says Balaam, wid a pious air. ‘G’wan,
ye big Ass, an’ donnt ye argue wid
an Idaylist,’ says Balaam to the Ass.
“ ‘We can't pass ut in the dark,’
pleads the Ass. ‘Lave us wait for
light.’ moans the Ass. weepin’.
“ ‘Nix,’ says Balaam. There’s a hot
time coinin’ an’ the votes’ll spile.
Do ye thurst for sixteen more years
In the wilderness? Giddap.' says he,
‘purgin' y’er heart,’ says Balaam, *iv
iviry thought that's selfish,’ says Ba
laam, ‘or personal,’ chants Balaam to
the poor Ass ticklin’ the Jack’s slats
wid a couplin’ pin.
“By this time the Ass was so wore
out wid his nrdyous labors, that he
knew no more than Balaam himself.
So, wid one despairin' cry, he dropped
his ears, as he an’ his master stumbled
forward into the dark.”
It Ail Depends.
“If Hughes wins an Oregon town wilt
get a new shingle mill employing fifty
men.” says the Olympia Recorder, “ac
cording to an announcement of the
individual who took an option on tim
bered land. If Wilson wins the option
will be allowed to lapse. That's the
way with a thousand and one enter
prises, all waiting to see which way
the wind Wows. The moment it Is
assured that Charles E. Hughes is
elected, just watch the wheels of in
dustry spin and listen to the hum of
business.”
