tempt to anticipate those delayed IN

the market from $1.12h @1.os%, but
failure of wheat to pile up in the ele-

by the strong Argentine news.

We see no change in general condi-

Grain Opinions.

Harris, Winthrop & Co.: The ten
dency in wheat is for lower prices
with an irregular market. Corn should
work lower again to a point where
country buying will be attractive
again.
Logan & Bryan: The immediate flu
ture of the wheat market will depend
largely on the strike news from the
northwest and the confirmation or de-
NAL of reduced harvest outlook in
Argentine. The market has closed on
q break as IL did yesterday buyers
have mad the best of 1t.
S. B. Chaplin & Co.: Wheat has had
q sharp advance and while rallies will
be due on every small break and
eventually we expect to see prices
mucn higher. Think a good reaction
here would put the market in a much
healthier condition.
Finley Darrell & Co.: While we
still feel friendly to wheat we rather
anticipate some further depression.
Advantage should be taken of yes
terdays reaction in corn in order to
increase long holdings as good sup
port undoubtedly will be in evidence
from this level and the situation is
slowly but surely growing stronger
daily.
Ware & Leland; Believe 1t we'll to
wait for opportunities to take on
some wheat on further dips. Have
some corn on hand all the time. Sell
little May product on bulges
". Fl. Lake & Co.: We believe that
wheat will sell several cents lower
before there is any rally.-H. w. Co.

Jacob had given the ''savory kid soup,
to Isaac. and the latter. pleased with
the gift, had given to his son the
much sought after paternal blessing.

tent flap and did pour moulten words
upon the trick which had scabbed him
OF his lbirthright. And after some hours,
when his anger was well nigh spent, he
shot the topic sentence straight:
why did you do itT'
Then did Isaac call him near and
look into his face. Also did Isaac
smack his lips and point to the re-
rnain- of the repast and say
Il love my Esau. but oh, you kid"
Whereupon Noah. who happened to
be strolling by, carefully tucked the
Jest into oiled paper and did put it into
the ark. whence. with much odor and
more odiuni, it was brought forth by
hunorists some 1000 years later.

Minneapolis, Dec. 22.-Rigid enforce

in Minnesota with the object of making
them so obnoxious as to cause either
their appeal by congress of their death
by proclamation of President Taft is
the plan of the liquor interests, ac-
cording to information which w. G.
Calderwood, secretary of the state pro-
hibition committee, says he received
today.
Almost Entire State.
The introduction of spirituous liquor
into st. Paul, Minneapolis, Duluth and
other of the large cities OF the state
is illegal under the treaties. Strict law
enforcement would mean that almost
the entire state would be dry and that
to have bottle of whisky even in the
home would lay the householder open
to prosecution.
The attitude of the prohibition COM
mittee is not to take advantage OF
these treaties, but use them only for
the protection of the Indian from
whisky.
my information came from the
mayor of a northern city in the state"
said Mr.. Calderwood. HE said he was
informed of the plan by the chairman
of the county republican committee OF
his county.

Portland, May 27.-Long miles of
sage brush, and bunch grass lands
were traversed figuratively by the fed
eral court this morning following the
defense introduced in behalf Of Will
liam Hanley charged by the govern
ment with fencing eighty thousand
acres of public land of Harney county.
A. Faulkner, a civil engineer of
Burns, also surveyor of Harvey coun-
ty, produced maps of the contested
land. The purpose of the defence was
to show that no care had been taken
Of the fences which enclosed both
public and private lands.
Faulkner showed where the fences
were down and up. leaving the inn
preston that fences in many other
sections were out of repair. Some OF
Hanley's employed men were put on
the stand by the government but their
testimony was unimportant. The gov
ernmqn's. case closed yesterday.
Tom Allen, foreman testified that
he cut the wire fence on the south
sides Of the range by the order of at

He declared that about half mile out
oG AZ miles were so cut. Other en-
ployes stated that they repaired the
fences when necessary, but not under
Hanley's orders. although he furn-
ished the material.

about fifty thousand dollars in the

RAISES NEAR BEER LICENSE
AND PUTS BAN ON music"

Near beer saloons must pay an an
nual license of $3.50 hereafter instead
of 500, as heretofore. An ordinance
to this effect was introduced and
passed at last nights meeting of the
council and will go in effect July l..
AS the ordinance could not go into
effect for Is days from the date of
its passage. and as the licenses of all
the present saloons expire June 1,
resolution was adopted extending the
time of all the present licenses for
one month on the payment of a pro-
portionate amount of the present Ii
cense fee.
The enormous amount of business
being done by these places and the
need of money on the part of the city
is responsible for the increase. There
has been a general feeling for some
time that the 500 annual license
was too small, and with the approach
of the harvest season II was deemed
