PROFITS ARE MADE
BY STOCK TRADERS
Bears Gain Money for Six
Months and Banks Show
Large Cash Surplus

NEW YORK, July 17-The action of
the stock market last week indicated
the arrival of the speculation at stage
of profit taking with a disposition to
pause and look for further develop
ments in the shaping of the future
Profits for six months have been on
the side of the bears and the process Of
ing of stocks to cover shorts. This
buying went on the presence of the
unfavorable factors in the situation,
which had been foreseen in the previous
short sales.
The anxiety of the uncovered shorts
was manifest in the resistance shown
by the market to factors of positive
depression which were of sudden and
unexpected development. Such was the
false report put in circulation of an
official statement attributed TO the Ger
man foreign office couched in irritat-
ing terms for the United States gov
ernment
The slump in the price of copper in
London to the lowest. price in years and
the suspension of proposed railroad
rate advances by the interstate COM
merce commission developed similar
power of resistance.
The course of the international ex-
changes and the promise of a large i'm
port movement of gold were important
sustaining influences in the improved
financial feeling. The rapid increase
of resources of the London money mar
ket and the recourse plainly open to
New York to secure a large amount of
gold in that market, afford assurance of
relief from any threatened embarrass-
ment.
The Saturday bank statement issued
at New York disclosed the actual sur
plus reserve at the extraordinarily
large figure of s33490,355. Such a figure
precludes serious anxiety over the fall
demands on the New York money mar
ket.

CONFERENCE EXPECTED
TO END STRIKE TALK
Railway Officials, However, Pre-
pare for WalkOut

PHILADELPHIA, July 17.-Hope that
the conference tomorrow between the
members and their committee and Gen
eraI Manager Myers of the Pennsylva-
MIA railroad would make strike i'm
possible, was expressed today by A. b.
Garretson, president of the order of
railway conductors, and w. G. Lee, head
of the brotherhood of railway train
men.
Lee declared his belief that the 10
hour standard, for which the men ask,
could be put into effect by the COM
pany without sacrifice
The Pennsylvania officials had no
statement to give out today. The Off
GERS of the company appeared hopeful
that tomorrow's conference will end
in an understanding averting the
threatened strike, but, nevertheless,
they are continuing preparations to
cope with a walkout. Elaborate prep
arations for housing men to take the
place of the strikers are being put into
effect and other employees of the COM
pany are being prepared to take the
places Of the strikers.

THE MONMOUTH NORMAL.

The Alumni Association of the
Monmouth Normal School is making
big effort to have the school for.
merly conducted by the state at that
place revived. They are sending
out circulars and they are advertising
In the newspapers. The letter they
send out contains good reasons why
normal school should be establ ished
in Oregon, but no good reasons why
1t should be at Monmouth. IL
follows:
Since the sstabl ishment of the first
Normal School In the State of New
York in 1853, there has been steady,
persistent growth and development
In the number of schools establ ished
in that state as we'll as throughout
the United States, until there is no
state in the union that does not have
normal training, save and except
Oregon alone. This is an unenviahla
distinction. California, Idaho Wash.
ington, her nearest neighbOIs, HIl
generously maintain their normal
schools. Many OF tho states, and
most of the cities. require their
teachers TO have had training In
normal school. The rural schools In
all the states are rs justly entitled to
this superior service: II Ia only de.
MED them because OF the scarcity OF
tarlued teachers and the remedy Ia
our state now lies with the people.
Every other state In the Union has
from one to nineteen normal schools.
This means that the normal school
has passed the experimental stage and
has proved its worth aud merits by
the results. The pubic schools must
have teachers, the supply must come
from the eighth grade, the state
schools, and dehominational schools,
or tar better, from the properly
equipped normal school, the righttul
source. These teachers are required
to handle the most difficult delicate
and Intricate product OF society, the
Child. The impressions the child re.
Ceives at school are the most lasting
1t stands to reason them that a train.
ed teacher will give the best Ieturns
to the state. The late u. s. Com. OF |
I'D, W. 4. harris said, "Ihe ordinary |
person sees results, but does not take |
note OF the methods by which they
are produced. Hence, the teacher
