..viiiauu iR necessary. During last
xrcr? wa ' sprinkling of export
sales of wheat from Chicago nnd Omaha.
tit ? from 1,011,0 of thp other mar
kets in the countrj. but these were only
.ron ln. the bucket" when the lnrge
furpius held In this country Is taken'
mi) consiucrntlon.
Consider Minneapolis and Duliith.
There are 30.000,000 bushels of wheat at
those two points for which there is no
?ut at lllB Present. The owners of
this groin, however, aro old-time hand
lers of wheat and If they cannot secure
i""H in-ice ior u tney protiably will allow
rthe buyers to name the flKiires which
they are willing to pay. James Carru til
ers, who is one of the best known export
ers of Canada, says that the foreign ship
ment has been liberal during the last
ten days and he Is frlendlv to wheat for
this reason. He believes that the out
ward movement of wheat on export ac
count Hill be on a big scale with the
opening of navigation.
Another exporter In Canada says that
there Is but one course for the wheat
holders to pursue at the present, and
that Is to sell their grain, as they ennnot
carry It Into another crop without losses
to themselves.
Conditions in Argentine hne shown a
change, and the factor which hns added
to the strength of positions of wheat
bulls In' that country Is the extraordinary
power of growers In the Argentlno Re
public. It (s only a question of staying
power of exporters and Importer as to
tho price of Argentine wheat for a time.
An English authority says there Is very
little wheat of n good quality obtainable
from Russia, and nt the present priro the
available surplus hns already been ex
ported, and of tho remainder there Is no
doubt but that n good deal of It Is of In
ferior quality, which would never bo
used by millers. Cash wheat Vic to He
lower. There Is a little of the old4.com still
available In Argentina and on this ac
count, mora than anything else, tho mar
ket for tfcat grain Is hardening. With
the cleaning up of the old crop In the
southern hemisphere there will be u
chance of the United States disposing
some of Its largo surplus, which will at
least hold values firm.
Corn In tho United Btates Is cheap and
farmers are feeding their hogs to a
standstill with this creap corn and nre
getting handsome profits out of their
grain by sending It to murket ln the
shape of hogs. Cash corn was unchanged
to o higher.
Conditions surrounding the oats mar
ket point to the fact that holders of that
grain will be obliged to depend almost
wholly on tho domestic trade to absorb
the offerings from week to week. Ar
gentlno has a largo exportable surplus of
this grain nnd It is known that groweis
of that country show no disposition to
hold oats as they may show to hold the
wheat and corn for a certain price level.

FARMERS' MEATS LOADED
WITH TUBERCULOSIS BUGS
AMEB, m. .Feb. 24. (Spoclal.)-Inflnlte
millions of tuberculosis "hugs" nre
cooked In the fried chicken and Juloy
steak wbloh form tho main dish of
the farm Uhle. Attention to thlf. fact
has been called by the Ames veterinary
department of the pathology and bac
teriology. The department recently re
ceived a greaily enlarged beef heart from
a veterinarian for diagnosis. The ab
normal blood pump weighed thirty-saven
pounds and wan token from an animal
killed for food purposes by a fanner.
Microscopical examination showed a
highly tubercular condition. The tissues
of the organ were covered and filled with
white plague tuberculcs The furmer
probably ate the cow to whom the heart
belonged. Iowa chickens nnd pigeons,
examined at Ames, Indicated a large
consumptive percentage of pullets and
fries.

011 the republicans, whose names thev
have been using as an argument In fa
vor of the present administration It tl
generally admitted that the republicans.
as a rule, stood between the cltlxcns utitl
tho men who would spend public money
to further their own political and elfls!i
Interests. Because tho cltliens nnd tax
IMyers havo declared In favor of such
members of the administration, tho ganm
would make It npprar that It is unfair
to these men to have nil election this;
spring, although tho law calls for It.
No one Is taking any stock In the
bloat, for tho reason that tho membern
of the gang feel that Hare lll b an
elect Inn In the spring and are lining uu
and pulling wires for tho inside truck
at the primaries.
The freedom with which tho name of
A. H. Mm dock Is used In connection with
any office tho gang wants to control
arises from tho mistaken belief that Mur
dock can bo controlled simply becausej
he has acted as Hoctor's personal at
torney at different tlmos. A mouth ngo
Murdock made n public speech In which
ho called a spade a spado and tho gang
was quite careful not to use his nama
at the tlmo.

whose records have won applause from,
the voters, fcrls that It must depend,
upon alliances with everything that H
bad hi Hotith Omaha In order to get
back In the saddle. Mistake after mis
take has been made in tho hope pcopln
would forget. Public discussion on tho
streets, however, does not Indicate that
It has forgotten. The first thing Itoctor
did wos to tnku out the electric llght.1

money to maintain them. During tho
same tlmo there was enough money to
maintain a largo an agluacrlng forcn

all tho public Improvements under way.
The Polish people of the city have not
forgotten. It Is said, the fight they hart
to put up In order to save their mag
niflccnt church and school buildings
fiom tho encroaching limits of Industries
that would havo rendered their Instttu
tlons worthless.
The peoplo In tho west nnd southwest
sections of tho city claim they havo no
water protection whatsoever against fire.
Tho fathers nnd mothers residing In tho
southeast nnd southwest sections o tho
city asked Councilman Hortnett ami
Vana to have an ordinance passed against,
the slot mauhlnca. City Attorney Henry
C. Murphy nnd tho councllmen worked
together on an ordinance forbidding the.
slot machines. Hoctor would not sign
It and tho machines aro more numerous

Mlxliitr the War Paint.
With the departure of tha troops from
Fort Crook for tho south, comas uio
rumor that tho militant cltlfcns ot South
Omaha may organize p. company of rough
riders to be ready for a possible call to
arms, several uiacussca ma hibiki j-

seems safe to predict that audi an or

It was recalled in tho discussion yes-

loch, editor of tho Journal-StocKman,
was captain of tho traop. The war wan
ended before the company got to tno

splendid troop of rough riders could b
recruited In South Omaha.
Pipe Keeps on Ilnrnlntt.
Rather than release his hold upon
Peter Anderson, helplessly Intoxicated,
Saturday night, John Jackman, patrol
conductor, allowed his lighted pipe to
burn through his hip pocket to his body.
Anderson was picked up by Officer Joa
Potach ami Andrew McGulre In front ot
the city hall Saturday nlglit. Ho was
helplessly drunk and In danger ot being;
frozen to death. When the prisoner
was brought to the police station, McGulre
and Potach turned Anderson over to
Jackman. Jackman thrust his lighted
pipe Into his hip pocket In order to better
assist the drunken man. The fire fell
out of the pipe and Ignited the clothing
surrounding It. "I felt the burn," said
Jackman afterward, "but I had to. hold
onto the prisoner In order to keep hlin
from falling." Jackman may ask tho
city for a new uniform and his friends
may ask Carnegie to send him a hero
medal.
