The boss wasn't there The fat lady
made a goodly delegation by herself, but

heavy. The boss could not be found. The
janitor found refuge in the cellar Ana
there the housewives stood. refusing to

could expect a woman to cook without

Several of the strikers dressed, philoSoph-

CORONA WILL BE RAISED.
Wrecked Vessel Bought by North Pa
cific Steamship Company.

Eureka, Cal. Aug. &C. II. Doe. man
aging owner of the North Pacific Steam
ship company, has bought the wreck CT
the steamer Corona, which has been on
north jetty off Humboldt bar. Much
delay has been incurred in the matter of
a purchase and many bids for the vessel
have been received by the Cation Bell
company, but none has been accepted I'M
til this last offer by the North Pacific
Steamship company. Until the news of
the sale became known there were few
who considered the wreck worth the trou-
BILE of saving. The Corona went on the
rocks in March. AS she now lies she
has worked well into the sands. Her stack
toppled into the waters and her masts
have become extremely wObbly, so to say.
She had practically been given up to
serve as north jetty beacon until her
bones should become scattered on the bar
bottom. But with all this it is said~her
main injury is the hole which was stove
in her bow when she struck on the sharp
rocks of the jetty II is likely a wrecker

BUTTER SHIPPED
IN FROM KANSAS
UnderSeIIS Local Product De-
spite High TranSporta-
ton Charges.

With the dairy trust keeping the price
of that table necessity at 80 cents a pound.
butter is now being shipped into Salt
Lake from Kansas. One local firm at
least is handling the Kansas product, and
is underselling the trust by cents
pound, despite the cost of 81 cents a
pound for shipping. This condition OF al
fairs recalls a similar development last
spring. Butter was shipped to Salt Lake
from California and was sold at less
than trust prices, forcing general re-
ductiOn. 1t is possible that the trust may
again be forced to lower its colors, but
so far but one local firm on Market Row
is attempting to buck the combine /"
Though the butter trust asserts its
phiIanthropic intentions in boosting the
price of butter to IS cents a pound dur
ing the summer months, prolonged roar
is being heard in different parts OF the
country on account of the increase. With
butter now selling at 80 cents pound
wholesale, or IS cents a pound retail, the
prospect for As or even 5e-cent butter dur
ing the winter months is not out of the
question. Rather it is a probability.
Wall from Portland.
That the raise in the price of butter
was the first step in a systematic en-
deavOr by the creamery trust to boost the
prices of all its products is the charge
made in Portland, Ore. In that city the
price of butter was raised a few weeks
ago, and now a 30 per cent increase IN the
price of milk has gone into effect. The
exclamation for the boost in Portland IS
that everything has gone up Portland
it is declared is in the grip of the dairy
combine, and in this respect is in posi-
ton similar TO Salt Lake. The explana-
alton given for the rise in the price OF
milk is due to the increased cost of labor
advanced price of food for cattle, anC
other expenses.
1.-THE cost of living has increased. The
price of coal. ice. fuel and other cOmmo-
dities are soaring, why shouldn't mill
and butter go up?" asks the reputed head
of the dairy trust in Portland in an in
tervieW.
In Salt Lake City the price of butte
still remains at it's mark of 30 cents re
tail And as a slight preparation for tn
! further boost that is due to occur come
the delicate statement that famine II
| butter is liable to occur.
/ 1t is declared that the cream being sol'
| bV the farmers is deteriorating in quail
| itv on account of the fact that the cow
are eating weeds instead of good grass
No substantial facts or figures are g1Vel

/ able that it will be referred to again whel

| Several restaurant keepers and othe

/ rangements to have butter shipped
