FALL TRADE EXPANDS.
Progress of Crops Has Stimulating
Effect on Business.

New York, Aug. 17.-Bradstreet's
says:
Growing crops show further good
progress toward harvest and fall trade
tends to expand at leading western
jobbing centers. Cross currents are
visible in different industries. Thus
while finished cotton fabrics are in de-
mand and some makes, notably bleach
ed goods, have been further advanced
there are reports of smaller demand
and lower prices for cotton yarns. In
wooden goods, while high grade worsted
and fine wooden fabrics have sold well,
other grades are slower of sale and
there is talk of accumulation.
In the leather trade there is more
life than of late and good quality
leather and hides are on better sale
as are also high class shoes. Low
grades are slower of sale and eastern
shipments so far are per cent be-
hind 1906. In iron and steel the lack
of new buying is still notable and
prices tend to ease, as the mills and
furnaces find deliveries easier to make.
The influence of the slump in the
stock market was clearly shown in the
decline in cotton prices offsetting as 1t
did reports of continued hot weather
in Texas with no rain. There is some
thing like a general hardening or adj
vance in time loans at leading cities
with a degree of repression noted by

remained for Bandy, who was under
the influence of booze, to start the

Oklahoma News: 1t is doubtful if
Manager Chas. Mcfarland will be at
the helm here next year. The chances
are that he will leave the team at
the end of the season for either New
York or Detroit In the American
league and stick there.
Mcfarland has had a stormy road
all season. His relations with the
board of managers, even after they
had announced that the management
of the team had been turned over to
him, have been fraught with disagree
ments. Contrary to the declarations
of the managers Mcfarland has not
had absolute control Of the team. He
has been subject to the dictation of
the directors not only IN the signing
of players but in making selections of
pitchers for games and other details.
The latest squa bible arises over the
signing of Roy Gill for the pitching
staff of the Nets Mcfarland signed
Gill on his own responsibility Now
the directors have informed him thar
they do not approve. of the selection.
Instead they insist that he use Nc
Cltntock, an o. A. K. league twirler
who was signed by them and who
posing batsmen in almost every game
that he has pitched. He is wild and
inexperienced and really of little use
to the club at this stage when old
heads should help to keep the team
in second place.
Certain memb ers of the board have
repeatedly said that they did not pro-
pose to turn the team over to Nc
Farland so that they might spend
their money to make a reputation
for a big Lacquer as manager. They
assert that they are spending their
money for the team and say that
they propose to say how it shall be
spent. 49,
Mcfarland is sick of 1t and prob
ably would have asked for his release
weeks ago but for his wife's sick
ness. Mrs. Mcfarland is troubled
with asthma and finds the climate
here more congenia1 than that of the
north. For that reason her husband
prefers to stay here. In case Nc
Farland is released at the end of the
season it is probable that one mem

THE BOOST FOR THE CITY.

The tremendously alluring boost that
Salt Lake City obtained for itself in
November, 1905. by taking its munich
pal affairs out Of the church control
bore immediate fruit There was an
| instantaneous response from Etbe out
side TO the bettered local conditions.
The outgo of population and money
ceased. the tide reversed itself, and
the flow of people and of money was
toward us, not away from us. Money
became easy at once; there was plenty
Of it, Large enterprises were set
afoot, and labor was put into urgent
employ, at better wages. Real estate.
which had been drug on the market
in spite of the undoubted fact that by
reason Of its site and the impossbility
of a competing city for five hundred
miles in every direction, came into de-
mand, and an active real estate mar
ket made it possible for any one who
wanted TO realize on his holdings at
n fair price
The general activity of industry. and
the abundance of money served 10
create a strength heretofore unknown
To general trade. There sprang up an
active and strong demand for merriam
disc Of all kinds, trade nourished as
never before; there was large. constant,
and active demand for all goods. Mer-
chants ordered larger stocks. and sold
out closer than ever.
An excellent and practical gauge of
the increased business and of the great
industrial and commercial activity is
the clearance report OF the banks. This
shows a total for the wear 1906 Of T2ss.-
75.012.SS. compared with a total of
S2l1 .597. 1883 for 1905, gain Of s16,-
577 7.27329. or upwards of 36 per cent.
This gain was spread with fair equal
ity throughout the year. making an
cquable and gratifying diffusion Of the
gain, so that it enlivened and aided in
every direction. II was a great year
for Salt Lake. The contrast between
The old regime under church domination
and the new under American admins
tration is one 10 cheer the heart, and
TO make the proof that Americanism
and freedom from church control is the
best possible business advertisement
that Salt Lake can show forth to the
world.
And what OF the ensuing year, just
begun? It hears In its progress the
i,ighest hone of another successful year.
II opens we'll, with Americans still in
control Of the citys affairs. Al that
the present officials havo to do is 10
put their whole hearts and honest minds
into the public service, to make II q
wear memorable in the city's annals for
great things Every American official
must feel that he is entrusted with
great and high service, not only to the
public, but for the preservation of lib
| erty and the true expression Of his
country s ideals and institutions in this
! region. 1t is high mission to receive
| and properly carry out such a mission
and trust But we have faith that the
