Joe Simon has been turned dow,

Austin Rcscbrooks went to Port
land Tuesday to visit Hermann, the
great healer, that is holding forth
ut that place. Mr.. Rosebrooks will
seek TO have the healer restore his
eyesight, Of which he has been de
prived since early childhood. Our
sincere hopes are with Mr.. Rose
brooks, but we sadly fear that it is
only a craze that attracts the multi
tude.
We believe the county court made
mistake in not creating another
voting precinct on Salmon river, as
petiioued for. There are a number
of voters in that part of the county,
a large portion Of which are new
white settlers that have taken ND
claims there. To compel these set
tiers on Salmon river to cross over
to the Siletz and then so up that
river to Ross place to vote is inn
posing such a burden on them as
will practically disfrauchise them.
The court, very properly, did not
wish to create any expense that
could be avoided, but we believe
that this expense would have been
fully justified.

cation from L. Y. Wilson relative
to the item ii last weeks LEADER
concerning that gentleman and his

article is too long to give room III

however, as follows: That the sub.
scription of 5000 did not cali for the
coin of the realm but was to be
worked out by Mr.. Wilson and a
man he has as helper. Mr.. Wilson
thinks he is amply able to do S2oc
worth Of road work. He also IS.
sures us that he has suflicienta asset
to pay the subscription in cash had
it been a cash subscription. Ii
conclusion he assures lis that his

is general and we'll known, as
/ generally known as any other cit.

be said that Mr.. Wilson brands the
item as false, malicious and libelous
And SO it goes.

New York, April 2l.-The incipienf

ling on q fairly large scale, but on the
whole, proved superior to the liquida-
ton. The volume Of business was large
and was fairly well distributed with the
railroad stocks holding their own COM
paratiyely well in point OF activity. The
sharp upward movement in prices that
was in progress at the close of business
Yesterday was resumed at the outset
to-day, and on an increased volume of
dealing. Another encouraging factor
was further weakness in sterling ex-
change rates, including d reduction Of
half d cent in the posted figures by one

however, were fractional in most Lead

COTTON DECLINED 2Tos POINTS

New York, April 21.-The trading in
cotton was moderately active in the
morning and the fluctuations were
more frequent and little wider. At
the start the market was depressed
in consequence of continued unfavora-
bic Liverpool adviees. Prices declined
2(03 points throughout the list The
receipts of cotton at the South were
comparatively heavy, much more 50
than had been expected and their
bearish influence together with a pa
thetic cable kept the market weak for
a time, but it turned firm after the
first hour on the receipt of less fayora-
bic crop reports from the South. Shorts
in the late months got nervous and
covered, stimulated the market and
caused an advance of 205 points over
last nights prices. The improvement
was Northumberland, throughout the
afternoon session. The undertone was
better and although the demand was not
so urgent, as in the forenoon, there was
little pressure to sell in any direction.

The trading element was inclined to

application to the New Jersey court for

management from paying the recently
declared scrip dividend. The scrip ruled
at about 73, without much trading in
it. The stock declined 11s, but subse-

The closing was steady, with irregu-

New York, April 21. The advices
from Liverpool show a better demand
for the new crop deliveries, with the
result Of sending buying orders to this
market through arbitrage brokers
which haze absorbed the Southern
offerings Crop accounts continue
favorable, though a little rain in some
parts Of the Atlantic would be benefit
cial and hasten the germanition o. that
lately planted seed. Liverpool houses
have also been sellers Of the May de-
liveries. creating the fear that the
tenders upon that position due on FRI
day next would not be taken for ship
ment. In the main there is no change
in the features which have been pres
emit during the past three weeks,
namely. that the question of limited
supply is admitted by every one and
the unknown factor is the question Of
demand. TIT may be Of interest to
record the stock Of India cotton in
Bombay is 653, 0o0 bales against 10000
bales last year. Rumors were current
IN Liverpool to-day that circular
would be issued in a few days stating
that the acreage had been grossly ex-
aggerated.
liverpool has been a buyer Of Sep
TENDER and a seller Of May in this mar
ket to-day. This operation has caused
the advance here during the day.
