BOSTON PRODUCE MARKET.

FROM NeuneSday'S HOStOn journal.
A 1rmer tone has been developed in the
butter market, but 1t has not yet been fol.
lowed by any material Increase in trade, and
buyers are slow to pay any higher prices
than n week ago. The warm weather Yestcr-
daV kept the market from toning up much,
but receivers were preparing for some al
vance later in the week, in sympathy with the
higher prices ruling in the interior This was
the prevailing sentiment, but whether il Will
be realized depends upon the volume of
trade and the quantity of butter offering.
Trade did not have ;he snap yesterday that
dealers expected, and sales in wholesale
way were light. The reports from other
points impaired n steadier tone, and Ieceiv-
ers of fine fresh Northern creamery were dis
posed to ask some advance, as supplies were
not large, but very few sales could be made
at over2lls TO p cents. 81" expect TO get 22%
cents for fancy lots in small tubs tomorrow"
said a large receiver, "but up to this time |
have not been able to fnd customers at over
y cents, and that for the finest quality" An
ether said he had some invoices on the way
that he ought to get 22ls cents for, "but IL the
demand Is not better than today may have
to TAX % cents" A quotation of % cents Is
all thai can be gwen a selling rate, with
lots in large tubs hard to move at over 2lA
cents, and cleaned up better than tubs.
The general cheese situation is stronger
than last week. The Liverpool quotation has
been advanced little, and prices I'm the in
terror markets are fraction higher. There
Is not much change to note here, except that
last weeks rates can be more easily OBJ
tanned, and buyers are disposed to operate
more freely on the basis OF llh cents for
finest septem er Northern twins, with few
sellers und9r llZ cents.
A firm tone wa maintained on eggs yes
terday. with sales OF western extras at Is to
10 cents, and fancy lots at 20 cents. II was
easier to get 10 cents for the bulk of the ar
rivals than last week, and all good enough to
bring 90 cents cleaned up readily though the
proportion of these was small. All sales con
tinue to be made Al marks. Eastern fres1
gathered extras ruled steady at 81 to "a cents,
ana fancy nearby lots AT % to p cents.
Hay is quiet M Slsal9 per ton for best
Medium grades are selling mt Sl7glT.50. ana
low grades at Sl5gl6 per ton. Rye straw is

1t was a genuine pleasure for the
Seattle folk to listen to a short
speech made by one of her former
comrades, Hon. j. d. Atkinson, who
has been nominated by the Republi-
cans for state auditor. It was not
the intention of Chairman Schively
to call on any of the state candl-
dates for speeches, except Congress
men Jones and Cushman, but he
changed his mind at the last minute
and Senator Frink and Mr.. Akin
son were both introduced to the
large audience for brief speeches.
Governor Frink," who has already
taken well to this political sobriquet,
made a splendid short talk, which
brought forth wild applause. He
was followed by Mr.. Atkinson, who
made the Seattle folk feel doubly
proud of him. With Mr.. Atkinson
nominated it seems almost the same
as Seattle having place on the state
ticket that she did not expect or ask
for, although he halls from Chelan
county at present.

But say, neighbor, was not that a
demonstration that you read about
that that audience gave Frank Cush-
man? 1t had been noised about that
Frank would run up against an ice
berg when he came to Seattle, but
the Pie-maker is prepared to say that
it was the hottest iceberg that he
ever heard Of. Nominee Ronald was
there to make much of any political
GOODNESS that might be shown Mr..
Cushman by the Republicans Of this
city, but he got darn poor consola-
ton from that meeting. The audi
ence was impatient to hear Mr.. Cush-
mans name annuonced by the pre-
siding officer, and when it was done
men and women rose and most vOcif-
erously cheered it. Hats and hand
kerchiefs went wildly up as the
shouts fairly rent the air for Frank
Cushman, and, let me tell you, he
was not wanting for words suitable
to the occasion when he got an OPP
pOrtunity to talk, and, in the opin-
ion Of the Pie-maker, he made for
himself many hundreds of votes in
Seattle by the straightforward, man
ly talk he made last Saturday night.
The Seattle Republican. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1???-1915, 1900-09-07

1t is useless to add that both Con-
greSsmen Jones and Cushman were
there, for they were the principal
speakers of the evening, and that
they were well received, or, rather,
enthusiastically received, goes with
out saying. Senator Frink was there
and had a few words to say, and he
said those few words in most pleas
ing as well as winning manner. The
chairman of the evening, Hon. IL.
W. Craven, made one of his remark
able campaign speeches, and indi-
Gated to his audience the line Of ar
gument he would give to the voters
of this state from the stump this
year.

The picnic given under the man.

Il have been up against George
Turner before" said one of the dele
gates to the late three-ringed circus
convention, "and l knew that
though we had him beaten in the
outset, unless we watched him aw-
fully close he would beat us in the
end. And sure enough he did. I
began to see the delegations fall one
by one after Turner had whispered
into their ears, and | knew it was all
off. The convention went just as
did the legislature when Turner was
candidate for senator. When Tur-
ner sets his head to win he always
has the wherewith to win on, and he
has no delicacy in using that neces-
sary Wherewith," continued the del
egate, who is now helping to direct
the Democratic campaign.

There will also be quite a scrap
over the nomination for prosecuting

active and avowed candidates. with a
number of dark horse candidates to
hear from. Walter Fulton is the
choice of the Rogers Democrats,
while J. G.. Allen is the choice of the
Goodwin Democrats. J. Henry Den
ming is the choice Of the Pops, or at
least a part of them, and a bitter
The Seattle Republican. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1???-1915, 1900-09-07

The Pops have a candidate for
sheriff, and so have the Democrats.
In case the Democrats succeed thew
will name Cudihee, one of the city
detectives, and in case the Pops sue
ceed they will name some one Of
their favorite political warehouses;.
The Democrats realize that thley are
almost compelled to give way to the
Pops or the Pops will bolt the entire
ticket, and the Pops, knowing this,
are browbeating the Democrats for
all it is worth. 1t, however, is not
absolutely certain but that the Dem
ocrts will nike aa stubborn fight for
Cudihee, as they look upon this as
the principal Office in the county,
and Cudihee has been laying dead
for this nomination for a good many
years, if it ever happened to be the
Democrats to give.

the Democratic ticket Will be turned
down by at least 10000 majority, .
is said to be the language used by
Judge W. II. White while the strug-
Cling factions were trying to name a
ticket. Judge White had an ambi-
ton to be elected as a supreme judge
OF this state, but he was not looking
for any snap like getting on the
Democratic ticket this year. Judge
White is too well posted on the poll
tics Of this state to suffer himself to
be run into political death-trap.

POLITICAL POT-PIE

Ex-Mayor J. P. De Mattos, Of
New Whatcom, who was a member
of the Legislature that elected George
Turner to the United States senate,
and who on that occasion bearded
the lion in his lair, has renowned
all allegiance to the three-ringed
fungus which has ruled the
politics Of this state for the
past four years, and will not
only support Senator Frink,
but will take the stump for his cleo
ton. The Pie-maker remembers
quite well how earnestly Mr.. De
Mattos supported Governor Rogers
four years ago for the United States
senate and every other Populist in
the party, and how he fought to pre-
vent the election Of Judge Turner,
owing to the fact that he had pub
licly declared before the election
that he would not be a candidate for
the United States senate in case of
fusion success, but who changed his
mind no sooner than was the vote
made known; owing also to the fact
that he had unmistakable evidence
that the wonderful gold producing
qualities of the LIE Roi mine was
having more to do with the senator
ial contest than was good for future
party success, and owing to the fact
that the victory was Populist one
and by no means Democratic or
Free Silver Republican one. He
therefore believed the Populists
should have the full benefit of it.
De Mattos was, in the opinion Of the
Pie-maker, an ardent and conscien-
tious fusionist in 1896 and the same
in 1898, but he is no Democrat in
1900. He knows and says as much
that Governor Rogers is as rabid an
eXpansionist as is Senator Frink, or
any other Republican in this state,
and he also knows that the only rea-
son that Governor Rogers does not
speak out for expansion as he did a
few months ago is because he has
lot the courage of his convictions,
and that he is perfectly willing to
sell his soul and political honor for
the sake Of an office. Pior to the |
coming Of William Jennings Bryan
to the Northwest, Governor Rogers |
was practically a Republican SO far
as the expansion question was con-
cerned, but Bryan and Turner lab
ored with him faithfully and hard, |
and when they had returned to the |
East Rogers was a rabid anti-expan-
sionist. Then it was that he de-
cided to take the bull by the horns
and throw overheard every vestige
OF former friendship which had |
heretofore existed between himself |
and the Populist party. Satan took
him up on the mountain of political
fame and showed him the entire |
Northwest from its top, and prom
ised to give it all to him if he would |
only be an anti-expansionist, and he
did not have sand enough to say to
him: Get thee behind me, Turner;
you have nothing to give but what
you can buy with your gold, and as
for you, Bryan, you have nothing to
give to any one but your 16 to 1,
which is a dead issue.

to look as if Denning would be the

Colonel Lewis, in explanation of
why he was walking in the middle

showing to his many Democratic
friends that he was not taking sides
with either faction in the local fight,
which will come to head next Mon
day at the county convention to be
