NO GRAIN BEING SOLD.
Moscow Buyers Out of the Markets.
Per Cent of Crop Sold.

MOSCOW, Nov. Grain buyers in
Moscow have been out of the market
for several days. Their retirement is
attributed to two cause.-the scarcity
of cars and the refusal of buyers at
points of export to accept present de-
livery. 1t is estimated that So per
cent of the grain grown tributary to
Moscow has been sold and the pro-
ducers have been paid for it. While
considerable of it still remains in the
local warehouses, it is owned either
by the buyers here or at tidewatet
points.
With SIS per cent of this years crop
sold at good prices and the proceeds
safely in the hands of the growers, the
Palouse farmer may safely sit and
gaze serenely at the little flurries Wall
street spectators may kick up from

Demand Good Government.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 4.-sup-
porters of Taylor the non-partisan
good government candidate, are con-
fident of success in tomorrow's election
in San Francisco. and declare that the
battle is already won. In the Union
Labor camp, however, equal confidence
is expressed in the election of P. H,
Mccarthy.
The fight is apparently between
Taylor and Mccarthy, although Dan
Ryan, the republican candidate, has
won many supporters for his ticket, as
constituting a happy mean between
Industrial stagnation' and Industrial
strife" The union labor advocates de-
clare that the election of the good
government candidate would mean
the turning over of the city to capt.
talists.

initiation, and the only relics of the

are the records, the Bible on which he
took oath, the certificate or check for
two pounds and three shillings, fee for
entrance, and the punch bowl which
figured so conspicuously at the repast
following the degree work.
The relics are highly valued by the
lodge and only once have they been
permitted to leave its possession. This
was five years ago when they were
taken to Philadelphia for a celebration
