People Of
Peaceful Valley
Up IN APmS

Families living along the water from!
on Huron street are complaining OF
the poor condition of their stairs lead
ing to Riverside avenue. The school
children of that section are having
great difficulty in getting to school
in the morning and are compelled TO
assist themselves by means of rope
attached to the upper part of the stair
way. The middle part OF the stars
have been broken, leaving large
space, which must be covered in a zig
gag manner. AS the weather is III no
condition for a steep climb the people
of the vicinity wish something done in
regard to the matter.

Bar Association.

The Bar association met this morn
ing in Judge Belts courtroom in the
courthouse. President A. G. Avery in
the chair and f. w. Wewart at the
secretary's desk. A resolution was
adopted that nature intended Spokane
as the center of business for the coun-
try east OF the Cascades and the rail
road transportation facilities had made
it the second city in the state, Seattle
alone being Of greater importance. As
consequence the state should be divid
ed by the Cascades with Spokane as
the seat of the federal court for the
eastern district. Congressman Jones'
bill was unanimously approved.

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York. August 22--The stock mark
ct was practically idle today, large por-
ton of the membership being absent at
the yacht races or for end of the week
holidays out of town. A holiday on the
London Stock Exchange subtracted also
from normal business. The sluggish move
ments of prices under these circumstances
were of little significance. United States
Realty, preferred, suffered from the ru-
mors prevalent that the next dividend
would be passed. Minneapolis, st. Paul
and Sault ste Marie rose momentarily on
the declaration of the first dividend on the
stock and then yielded on proit-taking.
Favorable weekly reviews of trade by the
mercantile agencies were reassuring fac
tor and the crop news had nothing threat
ening In it.
Attention was attracted to the large
import or reimport movement of cotton
thus far in August for delivery on coli-
tracts, owing to the existence of the
corner This is an adverse factor in the
exchange market. The Financial Chronicle
points out that the municipal bond mark
ct has suffered in common with that for
other securities from the dearth of de
mand and estimates that no less than 155
offerings of municipal bonds throughout
the country have failed of takers in the
last Nthree months. There was a slight

New York, Aug. 22.-All yesterdays
good feeling appeared TO be lost dur
ing the morning dealings. Just before
the close last night concerted effort
was made to advance the market TAX
ing boil weevil reports from Texas as q
lever, but Liverpool failed to enthusc to
the least degree and this brought the
cotton bought here yesterday on the
market at the opening. First prices were
unchanged, but before the end OF the
first hour practically all the afternoon
advance had been lost. While support was
still in evidence in the immediate posi-
tions, the general temper of the trade
did not display different elements from
those recently existing. Crop news IS
such that it would be difficult for any
one to attempt to estimate the size Of
this years production. The acreage has
been steadily increased for four or five
years, until now the figures are record
ones. During the last four years there
las not been a single season when cot
ter has had a chance, a fGir chance to
grow. and show what it could do. Now
the condition of the plant is all that
could be desired and there is every reason
10 believe twelve million bales posi-
BILE. There are many conservative men
familiar with cotton growing in the
South who state that 12,500,OO bales Is
not out of the question in the event Of
late frost With cotton selling at ten
cents a pound, there is really nothing N
the present situation to induce buying of
cotton on the theory of bull speculation
this fall Later on the ontire outlook
may be changed by an early frost. We
would only buy cotton on sharp breaks,
and would most certainly sell on such
bulges as took place yesterday.
