Sheriff T. d. Taylor today formally
ton by filing with the county clerk
notice Of his intention to seek re-
nomination.
For several months 1t has been gen.
orally understood that Taylor would
run for sheriff again, but until today

past few weeks he has been advised
by hundreds of friends to make the

cordial support given him has largely
influenced him to seek reelection.

Hold stock for Better Prices.

A. Venator, the Crane creek cattle
man, has been in the city the past
week. He has received an offer for
a large shipment of cattle from North
Dakota people but the price quoted
was ridlculously low and would not
be considered. While present prices
are not up to those of last fall, it is
thought by local stockmen that it will
not be necessary to sell at those prices
and practically all will hold their
stock for better prices.-Burns Times

Thus far no opponent. from either
party, has appeared for Sheriff Tay-
lor and 1t seems very probable that
he VIII be allowed to make the race
alone. In view Of the enormous vote
given him in the past few desire to
go upon the ticket against him.
During the time he has been in Of

reputation as most competent as
well as popular officer. During the
past two years he has made several
brilliant arrests thereby considerably
strengthening his already good hold
upon his position.

Dloycd has assumed alarming proper
tions at several manufacturing centers,
although wildly exaggerated stories
have been circulated for speculative
effect. 1t is announced by the heads
of the trade unions that all propositions
to reduce wages will be fought, yet
labor will not be immune from the
effects of the setback, unless, Of course,
prosperous conditions return very
quickly.
While it is possible to discern many
evidences of distinct Improvement, it
would be over sanguine to hope for a
large volume Of business until after the
nominating conventions in June and
July. Political uncertainty is most
untimely in conjunction with all that
has happened, and it is conceivable
that the nominations may not remove
that element Of uneasiness although
some Of the best judges believe that
there will be no cause for anxiety after
the candidates are chosen. Others are
equally confident that uncertainty will
continue until election. From 1.-THE

The Slow Improvement in Business.

Commercial conditions may be Ekened
to an automobile with a loose clutch;
there is almost every indication that a
rapid forward movement is imminent,
yet progress is slow. Fuel is abundant
in the shape of easy money, and the
engine is working freely to all appear
ances, while depleted stocks of goods
suggest that the wheels ought to be
turning rapidly, but somehow the
transmission of confidence is not quite
right. However, so much Improvement
has occurred from the point of greatest
depression that there is good reason to
anticipate further gradual gains until
the wheels of industry hum once more.
Convalescence must be slow after so
severe an illness, and it is one of the
best signs that conservatism dominates
the situation.
During the past four months the
country has gone through a process of
readjustment in nearly every depart
ment. Prices Of commodities have de-
clined steadily, even the grain and cot
ton markets sharing IN the downwg.d
trend to some extent, although relative
liz less than many other products be-
cause Of the support received from
urgent foreign requirements. Wages
