BUTTER-The butter situation aside from its
steady movement is manifesting no excited con-
ditions Trade continues good from day to day
on all grades and while no accamulations are
seen along the street, each dealer manages to
get enough Of the different classes of stock to
supply his customers. Trade is better perhaps
on medium grades, in fact slightly weak feel
ing seems to be coming to the front fine
grades and unless some unforeseen conditions
present themselves, a decrease in price may be
looked for at least such is the opinion voiced
bv different dealers. good demand exists
from the local trade for immediate use but ship
ping trade is cut off by high prices.

EGGS-An active demand exists from different
sources. While higher prices are in order. they
are no doubt kept down by supplies OF storage
stock which are offered in competition. About
one half the amount of eggs are coming which
are needed for the trade and refrigerator stocks
are drawn somewhat extensively. The best
class of trade which hold out for fresh laid are
supplied with incoming stock. In nearly every
shipment the eggs are found to be in very
good condition, with only now and then case
which shows that it has been held too long.
Consumptive trade is good and what outside or
ders coming taken care OF by storage
stock.
Eggs put up for cold storage must be strlctly
arst-class and free from checks, cracks, small
dirty eggs. They should also be put up IN

EQUALIZATION BOARD.

The county board of equalization
met in the Office of Auditor Boyce last
Tuesday and organized by the election
of Major A. H. White, as chairman.
Major White becomes an ex-oficio
member of the state board.
The most interesting development of
the meeting was controversy over the
representation of Bullock Creek town
ship. 1t seems that DR.. ]. II. Saye,
who is a resident of Broad River town
ship, had been appointed member Of
the Bullock's Creek board, and the
other two members elected him chair
man, by virtue of which Office he be-
came the representative of Bullock's
Creek township on the county board.
Certain citizens of Bullock's Creek
township appeared at the meeting to
protest against this arrangement. They
began their attack with protest
against the action of the board in rails
ing certain returns. 1t was quickly
made to appear, however, that the
action of the .Bullock's Creek board
had been unanimous. The action of a
majority of the township board is
binding. There was no question as TO
the status of the other two members,
and, therefore, with or without DR..
Saye, the work of the board was en-
tirely regular. Then came up the
main issue as to whether Bullock g
Creek township could be legally rep
resented by a citizen whose place of
residence was in Broad River township.
The board of equalization declined to
attempt to decide the question, on the
ground that it had no power to do so.
1t had the work of the Bullock's Creek
board before it. That work was legal
in that it had been sanctioned by two
members, the status of whom could
not be questioned. There was nothing
in the law to show that the members
of the board had to be residents of the
townships they represented. Besides
this, DR.. Saye was regular appointee
of the governor, and there was no
other power with authority to name
his successor. So, under these condi-
tions, it was only possible to leave

AT THE OPERA HOUSE.

There has been a plethora of shows
in Yorkville this season, especially
within the past few weeks. Some
have been very good, some indifferent
and some poor, or in more expressive,
term, "rotten."
The Murray-Hartt company, which
played an engagement of three nights
beginning last Monday, was one OF the
best that has yet been in the opera
house. 1t is not as large as many OF
the other companies; but is composed
of thorough-going professionals who
seem to know their business, and who
are possessed of unquestioned talent.
But from financial standpoint, even
this last named company was not suc'
cessful. Its receipts were sufficient to
pay expenses but not great deal
more. The audience Monday night
was a fairly large one, and the play
was excellent. There was still bet
ter audience Tuesday night and still
better play. Quite number of ladies
were out Wednesday night; but other
wise the house was discouragingly
small and the effect was noticeable on
the players. They did their best, of
course; but the play did not 60 off
nearly so satisfactorily as the night
before.
The company made a splendid i'm
preston upon the play-goers of York
vile, and also upon number of peo-
pie whom they met socially. If it
should ever come back here again, it
will, no doubt, be welcomed with
crowded houses.
