Common to fair beeves. L76 SIS
Beef Steers The receipts consisted
almost entirely of western rangers
and there were hardly enough corn
fed cattle on sale to afford an idea as
to the condition of the demand or
market. What few were offered were
sold about steady with the big decline
OF last week, but the trade was in
clined to drag and the demand for
medium and common corn fed stock
is very limited and uncertain at this
time.

Cows and Mixed Stock owing to-
the liberal supplies Of COWS and heif-
ers the buyers made strong EFFORT
to shade prices and the trade opened
out rather slow for all but the more
desirable grades, for which there was
considerable competition from outside
butchers These were fully steady
from the start while the ordinary run
of Gamers and cutters were dull and
In some cases 1Oc lower. The mar.
ket, taken as whole, was not far
from steady with last weeks close.
Veal calves We're in liberal supply and
although there was good demand the
prices were all the way from steady

Stockers and Feeders This week
starts out much the same as at the
first of last week. Fresh supplies
were liberal, but as yard traders were
all in the market for the cattle, trad
ing began in good season and the stun
began moving toward the scales at
prices that were fully steady to q
shade stronger than the latter part
of last week. Anything that had s
fair degree of quality found a ready
sale. Medium and common light
weight stuff was not much sought
after and ruled dull throughout al
though prices showed no material
change as compared with last week.
Inquiry for stock heifers was also.
good and prices steady to strong for
all but the very light and common
grades. ca
Hogs-In all there were about s.
loads of hogs yarded this morning.
which was slightly larger than usual.
on Monday. Buyers started out bid
ding 10 to 15c lower from the opening
and after more or less dickering with
the sellers, buying started on this
basis. In some cases sales were as
much as zoe lower than Saturday. The
total decline of hogs last week as
shown by the average Of all the sales
was IS cents. Bulk of the sales ranged

Sheep Receipts Of sheep were large
this morning, the arrivals consisting
largely of sheep, while lambs were not
in very large supply. "A large por-
ton of the sheep on sale were on the
feeder order so that the actual offer.
ings of desirable killers were not
large. There was a fair demand for
killers. both sheep and lambs. and the
pest OF the offerings changed hands
IN good season at strong to 1Oc high
er prices. Desirable grades, of feed
ers showed about the same advance as
killeds, being generally quoted aa
strong to 10c higher.

mated countenanoe emerging from this
envelope like the bud of rose from
its sheath She was as butterfly at
that critic-l instant when 1t is ready
to leave it's chrysalis and take wing.
She was a soul enmeshed in an ether
cal body, rather than body which en-
sheathed soul. Quietly and sedate-
ly the lovers met each other at the ta-
BILE. or at the spring, or at the milk
ing.
And when the labors of the day had
ended, they sat beneath the spreading
blackberry trees, or wandered through
the garden, or down the winding lane
to the meadow, and reviewed the past
With sadness or looked forward to the
future with chastened Joy. Their
spirits were subdued and softened.
their love took on holy rather than
a passionate cast, they felt themselves
beneath the shadow of an awful crime.
and again and again when they grew
Joyous and almost gay they were
checked by the irrepressible apprehen-
sion that out from under the silently
revolving wheels Of judgment some
other punishment would roll.
Tenderly as they loved each other,
and sweet as was that love, they could
not always be happy with such past
behind theml In proportion to the
souls real grandeur 1t must suffer over
its own imperfections. This suffering
is remorse. In proud and gloomy hearts
which tell their secrets only to their
own pillows. its tears are poison and
Its rebukes the thrust of daggers. But
in those which. like theirs, are gentle
and tender by nature, remorseful tears
are drops of penitential dew. David
and Pepeeta suffered. but their suffer-
ing was curative. for pure love is like q
fountain; by its incessant gushing from
the heart 1t clarifies the most turbid
streams Of thought or emotion. Each
week witnessed a perceptible advance
In peace, in rest, In quiet happiness.
and at last the night of their marriage
arrived, and they went together to tho
meeting house.

Hope for the Victims of Narcotics.
In an article In Success Magazine
Alexander Lambert, M. D., says: From
time immemorial mankind has sought
substances to help celebrate his Joys,
or soothe his sorrows, or blunt the
drudgery Of his existence. Opium and
alcohol have most frequently been
used for these purposes. OF late years
cocaine has been added to this list.
Whenever these narcotics have been
employed for these purposes they have
often been used to excess.
When the habit of the excessive use
Of narcotics has once been formed, 30
rare indeed have been the instances
OF individuals successfully freeing
themselves from their enslaving habit
that they have been regarded as medL
cal curiosities. In the whole broad
range Of the practice Of medicine there
is no situation more trying to patient
and physician than the struggle to OBJ
literate the craving for narcotics and
to re-establish the patient in q nor.
NAL state in which he may again face
successfully the problems of existence.
Until recently this seemed all but
impossible. but lately treatment was
discovered which successfully obliter.
ates the craving for narcotics. and Der.
sons who were formerly enslaved may
now have the opportunity to begin life
anew without their resistless desire
for narcotic indulgence.

WORKING WOMEN AND BALLOT.
Argument to Show That They Would
be Worse or with II.

Argument to Show That They Would
BE Worse or with II.
The lack of the ballot has nothing
whatever to do with the fact that wom-
en- workers are paid less than men
In the same occupations; the grant
Of the ballot would not raise the rate
Of women's wages to an equality Of
that Of mems, says the Boston Tran
script. The comparatively low pay Of
women Is due to economic and social
causes which the voting power could
not affect in the slightest degree.
Briefly put the chief Of these causes
are: (1) The lower efficiency Of the
average woman worker, resulting
mainly from physical limitations;
(2) the temporary nature of the en-
ployment, which in most cases Is ter
minated by marriage; (3) the rapid
increase of the supply of woman labor.
which In recent decades has been
crowding into occupations already fill
ed by men; (4) the lack of organiza-
tion, which has left women at the
mercy of sweat masters; (5) the para
site relation of many women toward
their industrial occupations, which are
not their sole means Of support These
causes would persist even If women
had the ballot. Whatever the suffrage
would or would not do for woman.
1t would assuredly not bring her equal
ity of pay with man.
Nor would the ballot assist work
ing women to obtain better legislative
protection against injurious conditions
of employment. On the contrary, much
of the present legislation limiting the
hours and regulating the terms of EN-.
ployment for women would be rem
dered unconstitutional by the proposed
extension Of the suffrage. This legis-
lation, SO far as 1t applies to adult
women, now stands the test of consti-
tutionality only because women are in
the same class with minors as regards
their constitutional status. II women
were given the ballot and thus were
placed In the same class with adult
men, they would be deprived of the
special protection now afforded them
by the labor code. In this respect the
working woman would be worse of
with the ballot than she Is without the
boomerang weapon"

JURY DISACREES
One Nan Blocks Conviction-EIeven
Believe ex-Commissioner Gull
ty, But Cannot Con-
vince the Twelfth

Portland, Feb. 14.-One juror, and
one alone, has saved Binger Hermann
from conviction on the charge Of con-
spiracy to defraud his country out of
its public lands.
That one juror withstood the pleas
of his fellow talesmen from Friday
forenoon at IL o'clock until this morn
ing at 9. His position proved beyond
the power of argument to shake, and
the twelve men came before Judge
Wolverton this morning with the re-
port that they could not reach YER
dict. Judge Wolverton discharged the
jury from further duty, and the first
trial of Binger Hermann was closed,
after five weeks of testimony and ar
gument.
When further instruction was asked
of the judge Saturday, fear began to
be felt of hung jury. The hours that
passed without a verdict Sunday
brought conviction that the jury would
be unable to agree.
This morning the conclusion was
confirmed by the appearance Of the
jury in the courtroom, when its fore
man announced that an agreement was
impossible, and asked that the IL men
be discharged from further attendance
upon the court.
Judge Wolverton was 10th to have
the case terminated without verdict.
But the positive assurance Of the men
that agreement could not be reached,
left no alternative. In view Of the
long time spent in deliberation, and
the positive assertion of the jurors that
they could not agree, the judge found
it useless to confine the men longer,
and discharged them from the case.
Disagreement had been feared, but
few who had been speculating on the
issue had thought the margin would be
80 narrow as one. Mr.. Heney and his
assistants were absolutely confident sof
q conviction. Mr.. Hermann, on the
other side, expressed his faith in &C
quittal, and did not seem to worry over
the delay in reaching an agreement.
When the report of disagreement
was made, the aged defendant showed
more signs of concern than at earlier
stages of the case, and when it was ru-
mored through the corridors that only
one man stood out, friends of Mr.. Her
mann realized the danger to which he
had been subjected, and gave voice to
their concern.
George Selkirk is the one man who
hung the jury.

At that instant the horse which had

down as If new thought had struck

CHAPTER XXI.

David's welcome home was quiet,
cordial and heartfelt. The Quaker life
Is calm; storms seldom appear on its
surface. even though they must some-
times agitate its depths; mind and
heart are brought under remarkable
control; sympathy and charity are ex-
tended to the erring; hospitality Is
duty and an instinct; domestic love Is
deep and powerful.
When David had frankly told his
story. he was permitted to resume his
place In the life of the old homestead
as II nothing had happened. He ex-
pressed to his brother and sister his
love for Pepeeta, and his determination
to make her his wife in lawful mar
riage.
They assented to his plans, and at
the earliest possible moment the min
listers and elders of the little congre-
cation of Friends were asked to meet,
in accordance with their custom, to
confer with him about a concern
which was on his mind"
They came. and heard his story and
his intention. told with straightforward
simplicity. They, too, touched with
sympathy and moved to confidence,
agreed that there was no obstacle to
the union. The date Of the wedding
was placed at the end Of the month,
which, by their ecclesiastical law, must
elapse after this avowal, and an even
ing meeting was appointed for the
ceremony.
In the meantime David remained
quietly at home. and took up his old
labors as nearly as possible where he
had laid them down. Such a life as
he had been leading induces distaste
for manual labor. and sometimes he
chafed against it Again and again he
felt his spirit faint within him when
he recalled the scenes of excitement
through which he had passed and
| looked forward to years of this un-
varied drudgery; but he never permit
ted his soul to question his dutyl He
had decided In the most solemn refiec-
tions of his life that he would conquer
himself in the place where he had been
defeated, perform the tasks which he
had so ignominiously abandoned, and
then, when he had demonstrated his
| power to live a true life himself, de-
vote his strength to helping others.
The charms Of this pastoral exist
ence gradually came to his support In
his heroic resolution. The unbroken
quiet Of the happy life which had ir-
ritated him at first. grew to be more
and more a balm to his wounded spir-
It. The society OF the animal world
lent Its gracious consolation; the great
horses. the ponderous oxen, the doves

WEST WARNS WALL STREET.
Taft's Lincoln Day Speech Meets
With Approval.

Chicago, Feb. 15.-That the country
has been reassured by President Taft
in his Lincoln-day speech in New York
that the administration has no inten-
tion of turning the business world
topsy- -turvy, and that the law-abiding
corporations have nothing to fear, are
keynotes sounded today in the editorial
comment of the country on the speech.
Western editors admonish Wall
street that it is time to put its bogeys
away and get down to business on a
basis of belief that legitimate business
is safe under the Taft administration.
The sentiment seems to be that the
president fell short of. convincing the
people that the tariff law is to be
trusted for results and that in spite Of
the New York speech, will 60 on as
before.
The Democratic press expresses the
view that Mr.. Taft is solicitous of the
integrity of his party and that there is
no less cause for worry now than there
was before. He is credited with sim
cere desire to avert anything that
would upset the business equilibrium,
while at the same time adhering stead
fastly to his declared policy of making
the corporations subservient to the
public welfare, and not paramount.
With the exception of few bank
ers, who do not relish the idea of the
establishment of postal savings bank
system, and some manufacturers who
are opposed to the new law relating to
the regulation of corporations, the men
of affairs in Chicago generally indorse
the presidents speech and policies.
