HOG MARKET STRONG
Light Supply and Quality
Hardly Fair.
TOPS UP TO 1888
Cattle Steady With Light
Supply.

The local hog market yesterday was
huotable as strong. There was not very
elaborate supply Of hogs or cattle for
Monday, but what was offered had no
trouble in selling, even at the low grade
Of quality of most Of it. There were five
cars weighed up and one mixed car Of
cattle and hogs yarded which viii cross
the scales this morning. The quality was
generally poor. There were no choice
hogs on sale and the line Of offerings
were of very ordinary tone of quality and
on a day Of heavier receipts would not
have caught very enthusiastic attention
from any buying source. As it was, the
receipts were so light and the demand
strong that everything went and at prices
always strong with Saturday. The Wdg-
on supply was light, as well as the car
stuff, but was disposed Of early and before
noon all hogs were cleaned up and buyers
waiting for fresh receipts. The tone OF
the market was upward and the feeling
Iuoyant and had any choice hogs appeared
there would have would have been
nickel added to the top price Of the day.

active to absorb a large line Of this class,
but in the absence Of this grade the hogs
which were on sale sold, and always TO
the best advantage Of the shipper. The
trading was desutOry and as fast as the
scattering lots came in they were prompt
" handled and later toward the close the
onlyl squirt Of the day occurred, and this
was simply in the weighing up of the later
received car stuff, most of which came
in late. Most OF the other western mar
kets also reported very good strength, but
for the quality Of hogs offered this mar
ket was more than up TO the average
all over It was light day. there being
so little sale stock in and the quality be-
ing of an uninteresting grade. The day
average weight shows up heavy enough,
but there were TOO many roughs and
coarse packers, and the better hogs were
out-classed by the run of skips and I'M
desirable grades. The tops were 2l2 cents
under Monday Of last week, and cents
higher than Saturday and Friday of last
week. The receipts were below last week,
Monday. There is an eager, active de-
mand for fat hogs and this class will re-
ceive good prices on this market, and the

llets. Today is expected to show up bet

REPRESENTATIVE SALES.
CATTLE.

The cattle trade yesterday, along with
the hog business, was light. There was
a very small line of single heads on the
market, and these were promptly sold.
There was one car Of mixed cattle ana
hogs which were yarded, and VIII go over
the scales this morning. Aside from this,
.,,ervthing in sight sold and sold well. The
demand for fat beef steers is good at this
point. and it will pay any shipper to send

latter do not fill the car. This has
proved a good investment on every occa-

ties and from all factions in the
country.
Strictly speaking it could hardly
be called a party though for the
time being it is necessary for us to
adopt the name and follow to some
degree the course of political
party.
The basic principles of the Union
Reform party is that the govern
ment should be conducted by the
people directly without interference
of parties, party conventions and
party platforms and party bosses.
The party seeks to obtain power
by the election of it's candidates,
simply that it may turn that power
over to the whole people to whom
it rightly belongs. When it shall
have accomplished this it will have
deprived itself, and all other pc
litical parties of power and will
therefore; with all other political
parties, go out of existence.

GOT ONE EYE OPEN.

If the immigration law is being
faithfully enforced and there is no
evidence to the contrary, and the
assertions of the federal officials that
it is, the coming into the country
by the hundreds of Japanese coolie
laborers is sufficient evidence that
the law should be amended.
Travellers over the various rail-
way lines in the coast states state
that a majority of the laborers seen
are japanese coolies. That they are
coming into the country by the
hundreds, the records of Tacoma
and other ports will show that too
many are coming is recognized by
all citizens who have the walfare
of the American workingman at
heart.-Tacoma Ledger.

Among the really notable theat-

will be the visit of Mr.. John
Griffith in "The Avenger"

House on the rs, inst. 1t is a
romatic drama of the most stirring
type, founded upon historical facts
and will be presented by Com
pany OF acknowledged ability.
The story which is one of intense
interest throughout, is taken from
events which occurred on the
Franch frontier of Spain early in
in the eighteenth century. There
amidst the wilds of the pyrennes
and at the Regents Court in Paris
the scene is laid. The characters,
which are faithfully drawn, are
those of the swash- buckling type,
whose ready swords are equal Y
swift to avenge a presumed insult
or defend woman's name.

A nation can not be made nol

When the Roetgen rays are

The noble courage and bravery

skill and effectiveness of our naval

which our civilization has been

tail. 1t is not difficult to reco gnize
the power of training everywhere
except in our public service, which
are still in political shackles. Ii
we want a thing we'll done, we
alw US hunt up men who know
how to do it; our navy and the
splendid victories it has achieved,
has taught us the value of skill,
but in the case of our army, this
lesson has been reversed. Why?
Because the war horse of politics
with his tinsel staff has lead to
death and disease the brave volun-
teers Of the republic. Whe n in
the dark days of 1868 the nation
cried out to Abreham Lincoln !
"Give us men of Gods own mould,
Fit to marshall his fellow men;
One whose frame is not bought

For the same reason we now ask:
sis there never a one in all land,
one on whose strength the cause
may lean? Are all tne common
ones SO grand, and all the titled
ones so mean +!
If things were as they should be
and titles and training go together
as would be the proper thing, it
would not be necessary to ask this
question, but even a blind man
can see how the matter is and has
been going ever since the beginning
Of the war.
Again, we very often hear it said
"The war with Spain has united
