THE WHEAT TRADE.

The month of October was lively
one IN shipping circles. Twenty yes
sells cleared from Portland foreign
eighteen carrying 1,185,0O4 GENITAL:
wheat, and two of them carrying
55,045 barrels Of flour. The re.
ceipts of wheat continue quite heavy
but the exports are not up to exrec-
tation, on accounts of the slow arri-
val of ships to carry the grain away.
Exporters are complaining over this,
and unless vessels arrive with more
rapidlty, we can can look for a
heavy gain blockade here Offerin rs
during the week were quite heavy,
but exporters are not very anxious
to secure wheat at the present time,
having all they want on dock here.
During the past week, the tendency
of the wheat market has been tow
ards lower range of values, accom-
panied by check to the export de-
manl. With weak foreign advices
and pronounced downward move
ment at New York and Chicago, it
is not at all surprising that local
buyers have reduced bids and show
less inclination to operate. There is
some increase in offerings, and hold
ers who were quite independent
about selling fortnight ago are now
willing to talk business at the prices
Obtainable at that time, and are dis
appointed that they cannot market
holdings at late extremes, and can
not understand that, as the season
advances, better prices are not OBJ
tainable
Locally, very little business has
been transacted during the week.
Buyers have reduced their limits to
79c for Walla Walla club, 8 lc for
bluestem, SIC for Valley per bushel.
however, are not inclined to
sell at these quotations, claiming that
they are obliged to pay much higher
prices to the farmer to draw out sup
plies. Competition among interior
buyers was less active than during i
the previous week: = Commercial

Electric Bitters is medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gener-
ally needed when the languid, exhausted
feeling prevails, when the liver is torpid
and sluggish and the need of tonic and
and alternative is felt. A prompt use of
this medicine has often averted long and
perhaps fatal bilious fevers. No medi-
cine will act more surely counteracting

YELLOW JIM-JIMS.

Scott, of the Oregonian, has con-
templated the political horizon
through gold-rimmed glasses until
the whole eastern sky is to him, at
least deep and glorious yellow.
Everything is gold, and he is as crazi-
~ excited as a tenderfoot In the
Klondike with thousand dollars to
the pan. He eats, sleeps, dreams and
drivels gold. Like poor Caudle.
after a certain lecture delivered by
bis wife on the subject of umbrellas,
and who dreamed the sky was vast
blue cotton specimen of that article.
SO Scott sees nothing above, below or
around him but gold. The very air
is auriferous, and everywhere he sees
the magnified image of John H.
Mitchell, feeding upon and DESTROY
ing the golden glamour. Hobgob-
Inns pursue his thoughts, visions of
deVourlng tiends in the shape of free
silver advocates haunt his dreams.
and like Miss Kilmansegg, who slept
with her golden leg under her pillow,
he will wake son'e time on the other
shore only to find that his skull had
been cracked in this by the golden
calf which he worshipped.

him, on the ground that a, law passed
by the last legislature restricts adj

the supreme court sustains this view.
There is consequently nothing to do

The election of Judge Parker, the
Democratic candidate for chief judge
of the court of appeals of New York,
IS hardly partisan Victory. He has
had the support of the bar. The
Ulster county bar indorsed him by
resolution regardless of party; and
the Albany Law Journal expressed
its qualification at this unusual tribute
to Judge Parker "as Indicating a
rapidly-growing disposition toward
independence on the part of the bar
in recognizing the principle of non
partisanship in the selection of
judges. Judge Parker's election is
personal, not a party triumph. Dem
ocrats will be encouraged whenever
they put up the best men for non
political office.-Oregonian.

The last Michigan legislature
passed one bill which is so plainly
unconstitutional that the supreme
court contemptuously remarked that
no argument was needed to demon
strate the fact. Another law, which
betrayed quite as great a lack of

fortunately, cannot annul it on the

LEGISLATORS VISIT PUTNAM PARK.
 A portion of the Legislative committee, accompanied by some of their fellow members, visited the Park on Friday. As their coming was not heralded but few Bedding people were present, though quite number accompanied them down from Bethel. After viewing the grounds the company sat down to bountiful dinner provided by Landlord sCottrel at the Old Put Club House, to which all did bountiful justice. With coffee and cigars, speeches were in order. Senator Woodruff, the chairman of the committee, made some felicitous remarks and ex. pressed his wonder and delight at what he had seen for the first time. He gave assurance that he would do what he could to secure an appropriation. Com missioner Wortman told of what had been done during the year and of the needs of the future. He stated the park was growing in popularity having been visited by 30 900 people during the year s. B. Gorham being called on gave g description of the grounds as they ap. peared before any work had been done on them. He was the first man whc drove pair of cattle through what iE now the main road. It was accomplish ed with great difficulty on account of the bushes and rocks. The present com missioners have been very efficient, giving much of their time gratuitiously.

A GOOD THING.


 The citizens Of Stepney village are awakening to their opportunities in a substantial manner, for on last Satur- day they met and formed Village Improvement society, whose aim and object shall be to beautify the town. The officers selected for the society were President, B. Hawley; vice president Rev MT Warriner; secretary, Rev MI Braman; treasurer, Mrs NJ. B. Hawley directors, Mrs F. r. Braman, Mrs Carrie Elwell, G. W. Curtis and Edson Hayes. Already the society numbers some 25 names. The society will go right to work and the next meeting is to be held Saturday at 9 o'clock on the green, when plans and work will be discussed and put in operation. The ladies are to furnish nice dinner and this ought to be enough of card to get every man out on the green next Saturday. It is a grand thing, this village improvement idea, If it can be successfully carried -ou and no village would be without it il they only realized what material ad. vantage it is, to say nothing of the esthetic taste. This movement ought to receive general support in Stepney.

pearance, is mystery to us. sNo one factor counts for us much for veal or woe in the appearance of 8 lady, young or old, as the condition of her teeth. Given white, even, we'll cared for teeth and the smile of an otherwise plain woman is an attractive revelation. Her spirits are lighter, her nerves are stead fer, her blood is purer, her face is fairer, her health is better-if her teeth are in good condition. If you wish to hear some unanswerable logic in support of these statements call on the best dentists in all the region round about. The Boston Dental Co.,, APO Main street, are always on the alert to find and use all the newest and best ideas in dentistry. Because of the progressiveness they are always in the front ranks of successful dentists. They understand teeth. Everybody uses their teeth but Dr Warnes, president of the Boston Dental Co.,, says that the percentage of people who add abuse to use is phenomenally and alarmingly large. He says that every man, woman or child should have their teeth examined annually, whether they have work done or not. It is g duty they owe themselves and the future generations that will follow them, tc understand the condition of their teeth If, then, they neglect them, the re- sponsibiIity rests where it belongs. The Boston dentists will examine your teett and give you professional advice free o1 any charge. They believe that youl sense of duty to yourself would accom- plish the rest. Think this over.

MONROE.
CHURCH JOTTINGS.

The Monroe people had most profita ble day, last Sunday from the services of Rev J. H. James, Secretary of the Con necticut Temperance Union. In the morning, Mir James preached from the text "Ye are the salt of the earth," af- flrming the solmun truth of the Christ ian's individual responsibility to be an ant:-septic, that is preserving power in this world of moral putrefaction that is, of the rotting power of sin in all it's forms. To use all one's influence against alcohol in all it's forms, one important way of exerting the anti-septic power. Forcible and touching instances were re- lated of children who went down to drunkards' graves because of the bane ful influence of their parents who would have their alcoholic drink as cider, wine, beer, etc. MT James has that rather rare faculty of knowing how to talk to boys and girls. His talk to the Sunday school was bright and snappy and intensely interesting from beginning to end. A large audience filled the Con- gregational church in the evening to hear the lecture on 1.-The problem of the .age," illustrated by many stereopticon views. The lecture is an admirable one, showing eonvincingly that the liquor problem is the most important one before us. It touches the home, the church, the school, politics, society. It would be difficult to say where it's hurtful influence is not felt.
 The Lords Supper will be celebrated in the Congregational church, next Sun day morning. Owing to the indictment weather on May 2, the Communion was postponed.

 STRAW AND BUCKwHEAT, LIVE STOCK
 AND PRODUCE DEALER.
 The gentleman whose name is found at the head of this article is successor to Mitchell &5 Shreve, having purchased the business in March last and assumed entire control. MT Mitchell's place of business is located near the Erie depot. He is also enabled to make any deliveries via the Erie and Pennsylvania lines throughout all the eastern states. He has undoubtedly the honor of transact ing more business in the shipping of hay, straw and farm products of all kinds than all the rest of those en- gagged in the business do altogether. It is very dull month when he does not ship 600 to 800 tons of baled hay and straw with other farm products and live stock in proportion. MT Mitchell's business proves veritable boon to the surrounding farmers, as it furnishes a good substantial market at all times for their products, fact they are not slow in taking due advantage of. MT Nit chen has been a resident of Union City fer the past four years, during which period he has most thoroughly ingrati- ated himself into the good graces and will of all, both as a reliable and strict ly honorable dealer and solid, reliable citizen in all respects. He came from Bridgeport Conn, where he was en- gagged in the same business. The ship ments of the concern reach nearly every eastern state, the reputation of the goods handled being second to none, MT Mitchell has sub-shippers in all the best hay districts of the west and this enables him to give constant and prompt service to Erie, Pa, Weekly Journal.

CREAMERY JOTTINGs.

The largest quantity of milk ever brought to the creamery is now being received, and large quantities of milk and cream are being shipped daily. Every patron is pleased, and it is little short of a cooperative creamery on a successful scale, as the higher the prices received the more patrons get for the raw product. All are learning that fall and winter milk production pay best, as the cows must be wintered anyway, and may as we'll give milk when milk brings the most moLey.
 Checks of $40 to $70 for April milk, (paid for May 10@, were common, while one patron, Ezra Pierce of Pierce Hollow, had upwaTdsof SEQ. Itdoesn't cost any more to bring good load than to run with one can.

A UNION PRAISE SERVICE.
 There will be praise service in the Congregational church, Sunday evening, May 16, (not Tuesday as stated in last weeks BEE), beginning at o'clock. This will be a union service of the Con- gregational and St Paul's churches and the Highland Baptist church of White Hills. Learning that the Baptist friends have been making an heroic effort to be self-supporting this year and that they are still in arrears about $50 the Center choirs have kindly volunteered to give them the collection at this service. This is an especially generous act of our Episcopal brethren, because they are themselves in debt for about the same amount and are working hard to meet their own expenses. We hope our many friends and the public generally will come to the service prepared to make tbe collection such that both churches may be generously helped. E. Ross Hawley, organist of the Stratford Con- gregational church, will be present and will play part of the service. Judge Tomlinson of Shelton will be the princi- pal speaker.
