The exporters were not in th market today to any extent, and th very heavy bulges In wheat tend to lessen th export demand, temporarily at least, find ths car shorlag is also a big factor In ths export situation. The high mark for the day was 91.02 on December and ii.se en tns Hay. wnu these articles closed at 91.93 and 11.94, respectively. s The. corn market was also very bullish, and, led by ths sharp rise In wheat, this market scored an aQvanc of 3o on th December article and lo on May. ' Tne traoe in oata was not very Heavy, and this market followed wheat and corn In the advance.'

LOFTY PROMISE, JAILURE Louisville, Ky., Oct. 19. Asserting that 'or three years there had been "no protection of our citizens abroad," Theodore Roosevelt in an address last night on behalf of Charles E. Hughes, republican nominee, assailed the course of-President Wilson in dealing with. Mexico, and his conduct of the country's foreign..vaffairs. "It combined lofty promise and complete failure in performance. It consisted of words-which were nulli fied by deeds'" he said in summing up his view of the president's course. Entering Kentucky in the forenoon, Coloriel Roosevelt delivered more than a dozen rear' platform addresses before reaching Louisville. ' Crossing the Ohio river at Cincinnati, his course took him almost to the' Ten nessee line. At Paris and Cynthiana hi told his audience he was glad to be. in Kentucky where, if it was neces sary, "the people were not too proud to fight." His largest auditnees were at Winchester and Richmond. On his arrival here Ihis evening he was met at the railroad station by a large crowd which escorted- him to Phoenix Hill part, about two miles away, where he spoke. Many per sons, unable to effect an entrance, were turned awsry. . Wilson's Omaha Utterance. Colonel Roosevelt referred to the president's Omaha speech in this fashion: - "President Wilson's speeches are models of adroit indirect suggestion and avoidance of downright state ment. But the other day at Omaha he seems to have committed himself to the statement that he was 'will ing to fight,' but was 'waiting ' for something worth fighting for,' for something which would 'put all the corpuscles of his blood into shouting shape.' It would be interesting to know exactly what outrage on Amer ican citizens, or on the right of hu manity anywhere, which would make him cross the line between being 'willing to fight'vand 'too proud to fight.' He certainly did not regard the treacherous murder of Boyd and Adair, and this United States, as "Something worth fighting for.' He did not even write a ndte about it. uThe murder of 1,394 men, women and cnuaren on me iusnani& am not pui all the corpuscles of his iblood-into Shouting shape.' His-corpuscles did not shout; they did not even whisper; apparently all they did was to sug gest to him tbat it was a happy oc casion for his classic remark about being 'too proud to fight.' I am tempted to think that Mr. Wilson did himself an injustice when he said that he was 'willing to fight' either for any great cause or on account of any wrong hereafter done to this country; and that the truth was expressed the other day by his eager eulogist, Sec retary Baker, when he said that tie was 'glad' that 'no one could inSult Mr. Wilson and make him go to war.' Unquestionably .General . Carranza, and probably . .. Herr , vori Tirpitz, heartilv agree with Secretary Baker and deep in his own heart I am, in clined to believe that Mr. wuson him self also agrees with him. "Keeping ill Out of War." v ' There was probably no American outside his own immediate following more anxious to see him succeed, and more disappointed when he failed, than I was.' I criticise, him onlyibe him 'only because my duty as an American citizen, oroud of his coun try and tealous of its honor, forces mi to stand against him. Apparently the chief claim advanced for Mr., Wil son how is that hi has 'kept us out of war.' Mr. Wilson himself said in ef- fecrMhe other day that if he was not elected we would nave war. let Mr. Wilson, through the democratic plat form, announces that the Mexicans have made war upon us, and have murdered our citizens.' Apparently Mr. Wilson does not mmd the Mexi cans being at war with us, as long as we are not at war with the Mexicans. AAnMan.:nn n ....... nn;n. iMr. vv iiauii s iuut.t,,iivii ui nai gain fully resembles that described by Mr. Stephen Leacock in his anecdote of how Mr.ySmith took Mr( Tonipkins Dy me coai couar irom peninu anu beean kicking him vigorously, 'and the fight continued in this manner for several minutes.' The' war out of which Mr. Wilson has not kept us with Mexico has been waged in, pre cisely this manner; and Mr. Wilson ! attitude has been precisely as digni fied as that of the mishandled hero of Leacock anecdote. And the great military nations of the world have treated Mr. Wilson, and through Mr. Wilson have treated Uncle Sam, in similar fashion. ' Made War on Hayti. - "Mowever, in one case' Mr. Wilson asserted himself. Hayti had not be haved towards us 100th part as badly as Mexico, nor one-tenth as badly as Germany; but Hayti had neither army nor. navy, Hayti did not even have arms and -ammunition, and therefore President Wilson was not too proud ot fight Hayti., Hehas taught the world that no Nation which is small enough to be helpless can insult us with impunity. Are you proud of the record, you Americans of Kentucky, you whose fathers were once not too proud to fight? Mr. Wilson has 'kept 4is out of war' forsooth! Why, on our eastern 'coast war now grins at us from just outside the three-mile limit, and on our southern border war has been waged on us within our own territory again and again by bands of armed invaders during the last three y?"-:. .'.... , .. , in his great oook on international law, Vattel defines war 'as the effort to assert rights by violence.' The Mexicans, during Mr. Wilson's term, have killed more Americans than the Spaniards killed in the Spanish war. We have now gathered on the Mexi can border, and have kept, there for three months, a far larger army than the combined armies that took" Cuba and -the Philippines from -the Spaniards and I throw in all the men on the American squadrons. There are down on the Mexican border at present more than ten times as many men as were in Mexico under Scott and Taylor combined in our war with Mexico. We have had all the blood-' shed and expense of war:- But we have not secured what follows a wise, righteous and manful war peace." i Lutheran Society EW.ts (iff dftrs UAVV WW W .- w - Ctir a-.f firr nf the Woman's Unma anrl Fnrtcrn "Missionary so ciety of the Lutheran church were elected Thursday at the convention in Library hall, South Side, as follows: President, Mrs. M. ja.
