NEW YORK, Dec. 30.-The feature of
the market was the adjustment of the diff
ference in near positions. There was heavy
covering In January In the morning in ad-
vance of the first notice day which falls to-
morrow. Shorts covered freely in this OPP
ton but sold later months. In the late
afternoon December was offered down prac-
tieally to a level with January. This Is a
perfectly logical development, as the cot
ton that will be received on December to-
morrow will be turned over on the January
optlon and there Is no reason why they
should not be practically even. Spot mar
kets were relatively steady with some adj
vance reported. Mills are not buying heav-
lily, but there is some covering of spot COM
mitments by dealers who have sold to mills
or who have engagements for exports

PLAN TO BUILD HOSPITAL
Citizens of Dallas Hold Mass Meeting
To Discuss Proposed New
Institution.

About sixty Of the representative
citizens OF Dallas attended the meeting
held in the Courthouse, Sunday after
noon for the purpose of discussing
plans for the establishment of a
hospital in this city.
Mayor A. B. Muir presided over the
meeting and Dan p. Stouffer acted as
secretary pro tenn. The Rev. H. j..
McDevitt, Of Portland, in brief
address outlined the importance of the
venture, the requirements for carrying
it through and plans for the immediate
beginning Of the work.
The subject was generally discussed
by those present and it was finally
decided to appoint a committee of
leading men to canvass the city and
find out the attitude of the people
toward the proposed improvement
might be. Father McDevitt had stated
in his address that to assure the
establishment Of the hosital it would
be necessary for the citizens Of Dallas
to advance at least $4,000 and during
their canvass the members of the COM
mittee will solicit subscriptions and
endeavor to find exactly what fnan-
cial help can be assured in case the
proposition is to be taken up and
carried through.
About $lS5 was subscribed to the
proposed hospital fund by men in the
assembly, even before it adjourned,
and it is anticipated that the call for
assistance will meet with a liberal
response from the progressive citizens
Of Dallas.
The men who were finally chosen to
serve on the committee were: Mayor
A. b. Muir, Ed Biddle, DR.. b. H.
McCallon, L. N. Hall, Professor d. M.
Metzger and r. +. Williams. The
date for the next meeting has not
been definitely set, being left to the
discretion of the committee.

LEAGUE SEASON TO OPEN
Dallas and McMinnville Basketball
Teams Will Play First Game
Saturday Night.

The Dallas College basketball team
will play its first league game for the
season OF 1908 90 In the gymnasium
In Dallas next Saturday night, against
the team from McMinnville College.
Although three Of the players on the
old championship team Of last year
are not attending school this year and
the lineup is almost new, the Dallas
aggregation has been showing up
strongly 10 practice and apparently
stands about as good a show TO carry
OF the peunant this year as It did at
the beginning Of any OF the previous
League seasons.
The team will be lined up Saturday
night as follows: forwards, Rice and
Fenton; center, Simonton; guards.
Claud Shaw and Lew Ballantyne. The
team opens the season with stronger
organization than was hoped for
earlier in the year and, although it
Will be somewhat crippled near the
middle Of the season by the departure
OF some OF the men on the Eastern
tour with THE Oregons", It bids fair
10 give the other league teams as hard
A fight for the pennant as ever bsfo ne.

OUR NATIONS COMMUNION.

Thanksgiving day is close at hand
and before our next issue greets our
readers, will have already begun to
shrink back into the mass Of vari-col-
cred yesterday that 60 to make up
the mosaic Of history.
A day in which to offer up thanks,
and it really seems that, even If we
had nothing else for which to be thank
ful, we might with perfect propriety
devote the entire day to formal Civ
ing of thanks to those shrewd old Pill
grim Fathers for their benificent wis
dom in establishing for US the custom
Of Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving day comes like the
call of a church bell to attract the
attention Of US busy Americans from
our frantic pursuit and persistent
worship Of the lesser deities of wealth,
ambition, luxury or other idols OF an
even baser forging, and directs it, for
a moment at least, fully and formally
TO that basal Force which is the source
Of all these lesser things whose bene-
fits we enjoy. And it is thus that we s
are restrained from drifting quite {
away into modern and refined system
Of idolatry.
There is one day In the year when ,
every person in the United States can
kneel before a common shrine, and,
whether on Thanksgiving day he
addresses his prayers in the name Of :
Allah, Jehovah, or any one Of the
thousand names by which men desig-
nate the Great Father of the Universe, l
there is after all, one anthem the .
spirit Of which Is common to all
human tongues and the expression of a
which is common to all human L
Deum laudamus."

BIG BUSINESS TRANSFER
Craven Brothers of Independence, Buy
Hardware Establishment of
William Faull.

One of the largest business deals OF
: the present year in Dallas has beer
consummated in the transfer Of the
: Fault hardware store from the hands
of William Fault, who has for %
years been sole proprietor OF the estab-
lishment, into the control of Messrs.
J. r. and J. M. Craven, OF Indepen-
dence, who will take charge Of the
business as soon as the invoice Of
stock can be completed.
| Mr.. Fault began business in Dallas.
June /, 1886, in the old bank building,
with limited capital and small stock
Of goods and remaining in the same
business continuously up to the pres
ent time, developed his establishment
into one Of the largest and best
equipped in Dallas
In 1892 the growth Of his business |
made it necessary for him to move
into new quarters and he erected the
brick building now occupied by the
main portion of his store. Further
became necessary in 1902
and warehouses were built in the rear
Of the main building to accommodate
his rapidly growing lines OF stock.
As Mr.. Fault retires be is rated as the
pioneer merchant Of Dallas, there be-
ng no others remaining in business,
Who started at the same time Mr..
Fault did. The Dallas merchants of
oday all belong to the second gener-
tion," SO to speak.
Mr.. Fault says that he intends to
etire permanently from active busi-
ess life. He will continue to make
is home in Dallas however.
His successors, the Craven Brothers,
ome from Independence with a high
'putation for strict integrity and
;cellent business ability. Both have
ad considerable previous experience
their line and will no doubt con-
nue to develop the excellent business /
