Peculiar Coincidence in Presence OF
Roosevelt at King Edwards
Obsequies.

London, May 12.-Oficial notifica-
ton of Roosevelt's appointment as spe-
cial American ambassador to the
funeral of the late monarch was re-
ceived at the foreign office today
Roosevelt will probably ride with the
visiting monarchs and other special
ambassadors behind the funeral car in
the procession. He will also attend
the burial at Windsor. One of the last
acts of King Edward was to approve
arrangements for a dinner to have

ERROR IN ENROLLING
CAUSES COMPLICATION

Salem, Or.-An error in enrolling
house joint resolution No. 10 so as to
make 1t appear to be an amendment
of article IX of the constitution and
repeating every provision contained
therein for the raising of state reve-
nues instead of adding article XIX
as the original resolution, plainly
shows the provision that the state
may build and operate its own rail-
roads. is not a ground to cause any
undue alarm for the supreme court
would probably hold that there was
no intention on the part of the leg
islature to repeal every provision in
the constitution for levying taxes in
order to provide for state aided rail-
roads. Both provisions would stand
This view also dispels the appre-
henslon that the proposed railroad
amendment conflicts with another
amendment proposed by the legislat-
ure and adoption of which is urged
by the tax commission providing for
classification of taxable property for
assessment purposes. AS the rail-
road amendment was intended to add
article XIX instead of being an
amendment of article TX there is no
conflict

tion plainly sets forth that IAN
amendment is proposed to the consti-

JULY STOCK MARKET
HELD FAIRLY STRONG
d. o. LIVELY SAYS
RECEIPTS WE'RE LIBERAL
Ala Cars Of Stock Received at Port
land Yards During Month OF July
Cattle Market Closed As Strong
As 1t Opened-Good Business I'm
Milk Cows.

July Is usually dull month in live
stock markets but, according to D.
o. Lively, receipts at the Portland
Union stock yards were fairly liberal.
The total number of cars were Ala,
in which were $3.50 cattle, 693S hogs,
1913 sheep and 331 horses and
mules. AS compared with last year
there was a decrease of 7S5 cattle.
an increase of 6504 hogs, an increase
of 1886 sheep and an increase Of so
horses and mules.
Items Of interest in connection with
the market include the building up
of quite a business in the purchase
and sale of milk cows. Dairymen are
looking to the Portland Union stock
yards as a market place for the rea-
son that all cows offered for sale here
are tested by a government inspector
free Of charge
James ]. Hill of the Hill lines and
Robert S. Lovett of the Hartman
lines, will be vice presidents of the
fat stock show to be given at the
yards, next March. A number of dis
tinguished stock men IN the Pacific
northwest and throughout the United
States will act as officers of this show.
The proper grading Of cattle on this
market and the paying of what the
difference between good and thin
quality represents to the shipper, has
caused the cattle men of the country
to turn their attention toward grain
feeding and this fall and winter will
probably see more grain fed cattle In
Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Cal
ifornla, than in any previous year.
Good grain fed cattle are worth from
! to 1-2 cents more per pound than
hay fed cattle. At the difference 1t
will pay the feeders to use grain.
A good barley crop, plenty OF oats,
an abundance of alfalfa and high
market make swine raising popular
and that most profitable of all crops
is receiving much attention in the
Pacific northwest 1t is doubtful If
supply ever catches up with demand,
and preparing hogs for the Portland
market is the surest and safest busi-
ness open to the farmer.
