War Claim Is Allowed.

Salem - Attorney Craw-
ford has received a dispatch from
Washington saying that the United
States court of claims has allowed
the state of Oregon $4,000 on ac-
count of Civil War claims arising out
of expenditures made by this state in
raising and maintaining volunteer
troops. Out of this sum $19,90 will
be paid to Washington lawyers who
assisted in the case, and the remain
der will be paid into the irreducible
common school fund.
The principal items In the claim
which has been allowed by the gov
ernment were those for bounties and
for extra pay for the enlisted men.
In order to get men to enlist 1t was
found necessary to pay bounties and
bonds were issued for this purpose,
which were afterward paid by the
state.

EGG DEALERS TAX
THEIR CUSTOMERS
Fresh Eggs Around Chicago
Sold for 40 Cents Can
Be Bought for 18 Cts.

What constitutes a fair profit in the
sale of fresh eggs seems to vary among
Chicago's retail grocers. Notwithstand-
ing that the strictly fresh article sold
at wholesale yesterday from IS to 1917
cents a dozen, eggs were retailing in
different parts of the city at from 25
to 40 cents a dozen. A few grocers,
particularly on the north and south
sides, were retailing them as low as
% and % cents per dozen, but the pre-
vailing retail price was 25 cents.
A grocer in Kenwood sold eggs at 40
cents a dozen. Wholesale dealers were
unanimous in their statements that the
best eggs could be bought at whole
sale at 1914 cents a dozen at the high
est, and that there was absolutely no
excuse for a retail grocer to charge
more than % cents a dozen for eggs
right off the farm.
A wholesaler on hearing of the 40
cents a dozen price said: That is a
genuine holdup. Any grocer could get
all the eggs he wants, right out of the
nest, at 20 cents a dozen, and has no
excuse to sell at a higher price than
% cents"
