STRENGTH SHOWN IN

BUYERS WILLING TO
TAKE UP GOOD STUFF
Though Not Disposed to Hurry Sales,
Are Willing to Acquire Hfgh Grade
stock-No Weakness Apparent In
Any Line.

Portland Union Stockyards, Stock
dale, Dec. 27.-It was the day after
in the livestock market touay. There
was little stuff in evidence In the var
ious pens and naturally buyers have
scarcely awakened and were not very
active.
One peculiar feature OF the present
situation in the livestock market at
this time is the strength displayed in
an lines. No weakness is apparent
today In any line although It cannot
be said that buyers are inclined to
rush purchases.
While there was a fair showing lin
numbers) of hogs for such day as
this, practically all the hogs that
came were of the feeder class Never
theless there was not the slightest
sign OF weakness even in this line
although such condition had been
expected by the trade in general
Three loads OF cows formed the to-
tai showing in the cattle market dur
ing the day and these brought about
the same price as had been quoted
previous to Christmas
Those Who Supply the Market.
T. r. Long was in with load of
hogs from Ontario.
r. c. MIX had three loads of cat
tie and calves offering from Nampa,
Idaho on today's market.
Today's run of livestock compares
with this day In recent years as fol-
lows:

SOMETHING YOU SHOULD BEAR
IN MIND.

We hope that all the friends of the
paper will constantly bear in mind
that we are striving for 10000 sub
scribers by January I, 1910. Not
withstanding that the Legislature has
adjourned, The Caucasian will be
found chock full of interesting news
every week. In fact, more can be
learned about the measures passed
by the Legislature from now on than
could be gathered from reading the
reports while the body was in session,
as in reporting the proceedings we
could only give the outline of the
bills, while we will now from time
to time publish the more important
bills and comment on others passed
by the Legislature. Then, too, Con-
gress will convene In extra session
on March 18th for the purpose of
revising the tariff. This is a subject
in which every American citizen is
interested, and every one should read
the papers and keep posted.
If your neighbor does not take The
Caucasian, show him your copy and
ask him to subscribe.

THE DUTY ON LUMBER.

An Associated Press dispatch sent
out from Washington Tuesday In re-
gard to tariff revision says:
"A cut of one-half in the duties
on lumber and manufactures OF
lumber, Is understood to be one of
the changes provided by the new ia
riff bill which is being printed, pre-
paratory to its final revision by the
Republican members OF the House
Ways and Means Committee. Anoth-
er change that has been made. &C
cording to information from reliable
sources, Is that hides have been
placed on the free list.
During the hearings on the lum-
Der schedule, the testimony was OF
such a character as TO lead to the i'm
preston that lumber would be put
on the free list"
1t is to the interest of the South
that the duty be not taken Off lumber
nor that the duty be cut so as tc
cripple this important Southern in
dustry. II the duty is taken off theI
our mills cannot compete with the
cheap labor employed in Canada ant
other countries, and many of thu
Southern mills would be forced t
close down and thousands Of laborer
would be thrown out of employment
AS to the question of hides, Nortl
Carolina is not much interested, a
we will not have many hides to pu
paign, and even then, they will b
SO punctured that We doubt If the
would be of much value even with
high protective tariff In force.

Some Things of Interest That Hap
Dcned in the Closing Days OF the
LEGISLATURE.


pcned i'm the Closing Days of the !
Legislature.
Speaker Graham's bill TO move /
Surry County from the Fifth TO the |
Eighth Congressional District was
reported unfavorably by the commit |
tee on Propositions and Grievances
1t was only two years ago, through
the efforts of Ex-Congressman Hac-
kett of the Eighth District, that Sur
ry was put In the Fifth District.
Surry is strongly Republican and
gives the Democratic politicians
much concern.
The House passed the bill to pay
the expenses of the String eld-Wil-
Iians contest This was the contest
from Dare County. Mr.. Struggled
claimed that some Of the votes cast
for him were not counted. Both OF
| the men are Democrats, but the
Legislature decided that Williams
| was a stricter Democrat and was al
lowed to keep his seat in the House.
The bill which passed the Senate
| enlarging the powers of the Board
| of Health provides that the execu-
tive officer of the Board of Health,
devoting his entire time to public
health work, will be known as State
Health Officer. He is allowed an
annual salary of $4,000 and his &C
tual travelling and hotel expenses.
He is to have as special assistant for
the anti-tuberculosis work the Sec
rotary of the State Association for
the Prevention of Tuberculosis at an
annual salary not to exceed $500.
The bill to establish a primary fol
, Halifax and Nash Counties, which
, passed the House Wednesday night
was the occasion for .ome politica
debates. Mr.. Paul Kitchin asked hi!
Democratic colleagues to rally to hi
l support, while the Republican mem
8 bers made some able speeches
against the bill. Mr.. Grant wante,
the bill to apply only to the Demo
cratic party in Halifax County. MI
e Williams, of Cabarrus, made yer
y able speech against the bill in whic
q he said that when the amendmen
was passed the Democrats promise
the voters of the State political free
dom, and now they were trying t
! lpass a law to prevent the growth c
the Republican party, and Nj
lKitchin admitted that was what the
e wanted to do; that he wanted to fl
d it so the party couldn't grow in Ha
J. flax. When party can't succee

lie interest. We may hope that the
report will embody neither the mar
row view OF those who believe that
the sole purpose Of the new system
should be to secure large return on
banking capital, or of those who
would have greater expansion OF cur
rency with little regard to provisions
for its immediate redemption or ul-
innate security.
The incoming congress should
promptly fulfill the promises of the
Republican platform and pass a
proper postal savings bank bill. 1t
will not be unwise or excessive pa
ternalism. The promise to repay by
the government vii furnish an In
ducement TO savings deposits which
private enterprises cannot supply,
and at such a low rate of interest as
not to withdraw custom from exist
| ing banks. 1t will substantially in
crease the funds available for invest
ment as capital in useful enterprises
It will furnish the absolute security
which makes the proposed scheme OF

alluring without its pernicious re
suits.
