COMMODITIES HOLDING UP WELL
Hay Market Remains Quiet, with Prices
Even a Little Lower Than Quoted
Last Week-Live Stock Lower.

Markets in all lines nave been notably
featureless during the past ten days,
and the slight change noted in few
particulars has been toward lower
prices. Alfalfa nay, for example, is not
eagerly sought after by the dealers,
and the top price is 1925 delivered.
Considerable hay, mostly alfalfa, has
been shipped to the Sound in the past
week. What the market is going to do
is problem, but dealers do not look for
stronger prices for some time to come.
Clover and grain hay are in fair de-
mand at so to $3.50 per ton, and less
hay of these kinds is being offered than
of alfalfa. 1t is said that considerable
of the latter is being purchased by sheep
men for this winters feeding in Yak
ina county.
Produce is no higher than last week
the fanciest kind of spud to bring $lj
a ton now although this price has been
paif for a few lots during the past
week. Generally speaking, $l4 is fair
price, although good Burbanks of even
size bring $l4.5O without trouble. Re
ports from the Sound state that the
California potatoes are still coming in
but not in such quantities as noted a
few weeks ago.
Onions are still high in price, and get
ting scarcer. One firm paid $3S ton
for pretty fair lot Monday, and none
have sold for some time past for less
than that price. The retail price is &c
a pound. Ranch butter is sc lower, sell
ing for soc roll, and eggs also exper-
fenced sc drop, although at 35c per
dozen they are still luxury that all
cannot afford.
Poultry is quoted lower. and geese
ducks, old hens and spring chickens
all roost on the same perch, so to speak
and for the first time this winter are
all quoted at the same price-Sc a
pound. Turkeys are the only excep-
ton, and are selling for l2c pound
which is about the same as last weeks
price.

THE PROTECTOR
Who Has Just Written
Another Letter---A
Press" Prediction
That Came True.

Our Frank writes a letter to A.
e. Mead, of which this is a part:
Il write to tell you that there are
a number Of good republicans in Spo-
kane that wish to see you. I also
wish to assure you that when you de-
eide to visit US you will be afforded
protection by the mayor against the
onslaughts of any indignant republic
cans who might attempt to do you
harm"
After reading this you might Judge
that Spokane was the seat of anar-
chy, and was in Colorado.
We want the world to know that
the people in Spokane are ''red-blood-
ed" American citizen, and always
have and always will conduct them
selves as such.
The mayor of late has been so busy
assuring procurers, employment
agents. macques, crib-keepers and
opium dens of his personal protection
that 1t has become a sort of second
nature to him.

POPULAR Lad
IS DROWNED

A mystery surrounds' the death of
Eugene Lehman, the A-year-old son
of l.. A. lehman, of the Partisan Dye
works. Young Lehman obtained per-
mission Saturday of his mother to go
swimming with the understanding that
he was to be home by o'clock. The
boy failed to put in an appearance.
Night came and still he did not come.
Yesterday, fearing that the boy had
been drowned, party was organized
to search Latah creek. The party was
made up of Eagles with Del Cary
Smith, president Of the order, at the
head.
The party made human chain AMI
waded up the stream. The patrol
wagon arrived and assisted in dragging
the creek with graphing hooks.
In deep hole in the creek the party
came across the boy. Attorney Smith
dived and brought up the body. The
clothes We're found on the bank of the
creek shortly before the body was re-
covered.
1t is not known how the young boy
came to be drowned. He was with a
large party and was known to be un-
able to swim. The boys will appear
before Coroner Smith this afternoon
at which time he will decide what
to do about the matter.
Young Lehman was well known and
favorite with his school mates. He
was an unusually bright and gentle-
manly lad. So obedent was he that
when he failed to appear at 4 O'Clock,
as he promised. his mother felt sure
something had happened to him.
The boy was one of the contestants
in the Press contest. He worked hard
and steadily to gain the prize. He had
los, 900 votes to his credit.
The funeral will be held tomorrow
afternoon. probably from the parlors
of the Washington Undertaking COM
