NO MORE CHEAP WHEAT
Patten Says the Consumption
is Ahead of Production.
Chicago, April 10.—James A.
Fatten, the wheat king, yester¬
day sold to a country miller 5,
000 bushels of No. 2 red wheat
at $ 1.88 f. o. b. cars here, which
is the highest price of the year
yet recorded for this grade of
wheat.
The hull leader expressed him¬
self as decidedly bullish on July
wheat, believeing it will reach
even a higher level before the
next harvest than yet jecorded
for May contracts. He believes
all of the new crop months,which
are now at a great discount un¬
der cash wheat, will have a big
rise in values.
“We will see no more cheap
wheat in this country until there
is more extensive production 1 o
meet the growing consumption
demands,” continued Mw Pat
ten. “I see little chance for this
increase in production in this
country this year, because far
rners all over the Northwest de
clare there is more money in rais¬
ing oats and barley than putting
the land to wheat.”
IS IT WRIGHT?
Editor Murray News.
Will you give me space in The
News for a number of articles,
commencing, is it right?
My purpose to lower our high
tax ; increase a greater interest
for a development in any depart¬
ment of industry or education
that will result in good, financi¬
ally and morally. First, is it
right for our legislature, of both
houses, which should be inteli
gent, gentlemen, to hire Chap¬
lains to read a portion of God’s
word and offer a prayer, which
is right, to ask counsil to direct
their thoughts aud business for
the day. Our legislator ; can and
alternate in this service, Mur¬
ray county, most of the time for
many years, has sent men to
make our laws, who willingly
would have done their part.
Save this amount to educate poor
children. Shame to think of
g two men $ 8.00 per day,
for 15 minutes ...... which
ten or tune
the members can do. Fury all
the useless precedence. All our
courts of justice, from the su¬
preme to the circuit, shouid re¬
quire the Judges to read a short
biLie lesson and oiler ptayer or
cal! on some one who is assisting
in the transaction of the busi¬
ness. It is right to ask Divine
aid to punish the guilty and re¬
lease the innocent. But the ex¬
cuse for all the unnecessary ex¬
penses comes off of the county
and state. Make money right or
wrong. A man told his son, who
we will cal! Johnnie- Make
money son. Make if right,John¬
nie replied : “Suppose 1 ean not
make it right.” Father says:
“Make money.” Too much of
this idea in our sounty and state.
Make money by high tax to sup¬ do
port the many officers that we
not need. Make.inoney Johnnie,
difference, for it comes off of
the county and state, uur state
is made up of individual*. In¬
jure one and you injure all. Last¬
ly, 1 am no candidate for office,
nor ever expect to be.

sented to the Legislature.
Macon, Ga., April 12 .—Justice
J. Tom Rogers has named May
27 and 28 as the dates when the
convention of the justices of the
state will be held in Macon. A
large number of important mat¬
ters will be up for hearing. The

state.
There are more than 8,000 jus¬

as far as possible the local justi¬

have presented to the coining
session of the legislature such
measure or measures as will make
the operation of the justice courts
more modern and more conven¬
ient.
