tTIMES BUREAU AT STATE CAPITAL INDIAN APOLJS, Ind., July ?. Somewhat to the despair of a nurabfr ff Democratic leaders Thomas Taggart, the French Lick chieftian. is again being: trotted out by some "1 his faithful followers as timber for the senatorial contru of 192.. It teems that thesa Tasrgart Peraocrau ara not satisfied with having th.ir irair Acored in two i,revious battles for the senatcrship. They depreciate the defeat of start last year when he ran against Senator Janus E. Watson by pointing -o;t that ha was merely the victim of the landslide against the Wilson administration. By next year thesa Democrats hop that there ill he serious economic troubles of such a nature as to reflect upon the Republican national administration. Capitalization of such a condition by the, stump orators would put Taujrart acrces. they Je:laro. Other democratic state leaders, however, are maklnjf It no secret that ttv y are. opposed to Tag-art ever seeking 'he senatorshilp. liu van never music r winnintr etre-nprth. they say. na dJKonstra.to their argument by r.-cail-

Inj that Taugart failed to cut into the "Watson vote materially even though tha senator was embarrassed by soma trouble within his own party. In their discussions of the senatorship election It la very Interesting to note the. way In which the:?e Democrats dwell upon "business depression' and "unemployment." It seems that th hope of widespread dissatisfaction among' the people Is the only thics' which Is now stimulating1 any interest among: the. democratic statesmen. Th speculation of some months s go that former Oovernor Samuel M. Ralston wAt to ba chosen by the Democrats as their leader next year is now diservuntM. Krleds of Mr. Ral.ston declare ho need not h counted in the. Ta.ce. Therrf is a, great dal of talk, howfvr. .bout former Vice President Marshall beln called upon to enter the. lists. Marshall boosters lrslst "h would be the. best bet because he has Teen able to weather twelve years of public life without making- many enemies. They i also declare that ha Is held In high'

LIFE IN WILD NORTH SAFER THAN IN OUR CITIES INTERNATIONAL NEWS StRVICEj SEATTLE. l.ue in Alaska is as safe as a Federal Reserva bank compared to the hazardous crossing of streets in Seattle, according to the belief of Andrew M. Taylor, who came "outside" for the first time this spring since 1898. Talk about facing perils in the North! Why, I'd rather dri e a dos team across a glacier at 60 below

than take chances of crossing Third avenue at Union street." he said. "Andthe noise! You folks seem to think you've got to be hardy to live up North. But I'd give anything I've got to be out of here, where a person can hear himself talk." Taylor came out to meet John B. Durham, cf New Tork, president of the American Game Protective association, whom he will guide on a hunting and scientific expedition in Siberia. The party will go to Nome, then cross the Bering sea. They will return from Siberia the same way and take the last boat down to Seattle about October 1. Uurnham is In quest of a number of varieties of Siberian sheep nbt to be found on this continent, ana plana to bring back specimens of these animals.

Up to the present time assignments to the two departments have automatically been made as cases wer filed with even numbers going Into one department and odd numbers Into another. It Is said that some attorneys have held back cases of their clients for several days in order that the next number on the register might be favorable and the case he set before the "favorite" Judge. Attaches of the clerk's office have been kept busy answering telephone calls as to the next number on tha register. The conference of the judges and

clerk resulted In a change of system which will make it Impossible to foretell which Judge will preside when a case is called. Hereafter all cases as filed will be assigned by drawing numbers from a box. Using this- system it will not be possible to tell which department will have a case.

Beemcr, the county clerk. The conference, was made necessary because of the alleged arbitrary selection by certain attorneys of the Judges to hear their cases. The practice has grown to such large proportions that it has become distasteful to the Washoe county Judges, and has led to a revision of the system uced in assigning divorce cases after they were filed.

(National Crop Improvemtnt Service. SHOULD you ask any grain man why the price goes up, he would instantly say because today there w ere more buyers than sellers. Some farmers organizations argue that because there :s no more grain now than there was afur harvest, the law of supply and demand is not operative, but the price depends on so many things that the actual supply of grain is not always the main cause. Every time it rains in the winter or there is a heavy snow or there is a thaw which makes the roarfa mnv

the price of corn goes up because it may not be freely marketed, even though the total amount of grain is absolutely known. Then again, the news from the Argentine or Australia may be that there is a local crop failure or unusually good conditions of gram in that p3rt of the world, and that in turn will make the price fluctuate. Then agnin the rate of foreign ex

change will interrupt the flow of export business and that m turn hag bearing on the price. Again the condition of the grain itself may have a great bearing. If the grain is poor, the millers, the industrials, the feed manufacturers, the ex

porter wi!l not buy it unless at a great discount. As the seascn goes on the out!ook fcr the next crop has a great deal to do with the price. If green bug or Hessian fly or winter killing or drouth or too much rain makes the outlook for the winter wheat crop dubious, up goes the price on last year's wheat.

The more a man knows about world's conditions, the more opportunity there is for difference of opinion. That is why the prices fluctuate. It is seldom, a it often charged, that any grain handler can buy grain cheap after harvest and hold for a high price. Futures trading prevenU that very thing. It anticipates the price for months to come.
