PROHIBITION PRESS BULLETIN \

Something of a quietus was put
on the declaration of the intention
of the liquor dealers to apply the
lid to all branches of business when
nearly every old party paper in the
state took an editorial shot at the
proposition. The Republican Press,
Atwater, sums up the matter as fol-
lows: LET the saloon men con-
tinue their retaliation scheme if it
will result in something bene.
fetal to the temperance cause. No
matter what our politics, we should
not fear temperance legislation
1t is good for the republicans, it is
good for the democrats, it is good
for the members of all parties. Nc
party can be considered clean if il
is contrary to good temperance leg.

seem to have realized before now
that the movement not only showed
bad sense on their part, but worse
politics. The people of Minnesota
are in no mood to receive moral in.

In 1908 the legislature of New
Hampshire plastered legal lie over
a prohibition statute which it dared
not undertake to repeal, allowing
certain cities, like Manchester
Nashua, etc., to license the traffic
Indications are that the state will
soon go back to the prohibition law
Ex-Gov. D. H. Goodell in an in
terview recently stated: "Thi:
law has been tried now for some
thing over four years and there il

people who favored it when it wa!

who opposed it, that the time ha:
come for its repeal. The results OF
the law have been fearfully bad

the LOCAL MARKET
Utter Want Of Confidence Was
Main Feature

Almost total indifference on the
part Of the public to the tempting
prices quoted was the main feature
Of the local market this week. II
was entirely due to want Of con-
fidence which will only be accentn-
ated when this issue Of the Miner
reaches its readers and informs
them Of the way they have been
jobbed in Alameda-almost the
only stock that the public contin-
ued to buy on account Of its appar-
emily low price, presuming that it
owned the ore body it was working.
1t is likely that this last job will
put the exchange out Of business,
(as brokers cannot exist long with
out clients and they cannot have
many left unless some radical steps
are at once taken for the protection
Of the investing public. In another
column the Miner points the way
to accomplish this object.
The volume Of sales was surpris-
ingly large, all things considered,
but the prices at which sales were
made were discouragingly low
apart from Alameda which must
necessarily get back to bedrock.
The rise in Missoula was about
the only rcdeeming feature Of an
otherwise dismal slump. Dom
Paul was also stronger and higher
as was Snow Storm.

THE SPOKANE MARKET
Mayo. Sachs 4 Co. Dumped Lots Of
Alameda Stock

Spokane, Wash, July 25-The
dumping Of Alameda stock by
Mayo, Sachs h Co. Of Butte and
incidental short selling by brokers
on the inside were about the only
features at all bordering on the
sensational in the last weeks trad
ing. The market was in the dumps.
The public simply would not buy
at any price as all Of them were
wisely holding back to make GER
tain that rock bottom prices had
been reached.
The conviction that some immed-
late action to save the market from
total extinction is necessary is be-
coming general. The brokers claim
that while they are being blamed
for present conditions it is the
management of the various COM
panies which have been most popu-
lar with the public and whose
stocks have lately been on the
toboggan who should really bear
the Odium.
