There is a somewhat better outlook

Portland. While there were no ar
rivals in that branch of the trade to-
Gay, the indications seem to point 10

few days.
Leading sellers are now agreed to
The fact that the botto mfor cattle

that the near fuure Will show a ma

Buyers now seemingly realize that
ii will be useless for them to continue
Their bearish tactics even for the re-

also realize that there is not enough
Of the home growth to supply their
needs and for that reason outside
stuff must be attracted in this direc-

AS a rule there is a good tone in,

ket was steady during the day.
At South Omaha cattle values were

steady nerve. In the present trouble
over the strike in the street cleaning
department, it is probable that the strik-
ers themselves are responsible for only a
percentage Of the disorder that has been
raging for week; much Of the disorder,
perhaps a major portion OF Il, is to be
charged directly to an army of toughs
who go about the great metropolis seiz-
ing upon opportunities like this to get
their revenge on the officers who repre-
sent the stern finger of the law and who
have had occasion to bring these same
toughs into court for crimes and mis-
demeanors. Policemen in New York are
their marks, and they lose no occasions
of large strikes like the present trouble
to vent their spite. Therefore, in the
face of this lawless element, the police
man has to be well fortified with physical
courage well knowing that each call may
bring death if the heat of the mob
reaches to the height of the usual fren-
~. As it is, there are remarkable DEM
onstrations Of personal bravery among
the blue coats of the city in the per-
Torrance of the duty which they have
sworn to perform. Without question,
policemen sometimes overreach their au-
thority in the passion Of the strife and
exercise unwarranted show Of authority;
but these are exceptions, rather than
the rule, And under the regime Of Mayor
Gaynor, these exceptions are being held
up as examples to the entire force, ex
amples which should not be followed if
the policemen desire to hold their posi-
tions.

THE REASON WHY.

President Byrnes of the Barre railroad
makes frequent visits to Vermont quar-
ries, in order to improve transportation
and freight handling facilities. Now he
promises to make an extension 1000 feet
long on the quarries at Barre at cost Of
$4,000. If railroad authorities were
compelled to show as much concern
about the granite situation In Concord as
they are in Barre, there would neees-
sarily be a decided picking up in the
local industry Concord, n. H., Patriot,
You can make up your mind that
President Byrnes has not made the prom
Use Of large track extensions at the Barre
quarries without first becoming convinced
Of the possibilities for development OF
the industry; for Barre people have been
brought to realize that he demands to
see the dollars and cents in the deal be-
fore he makes move. His frequent
visits above spoken of have been spent in
studying the conditions, and he doubtless
has become convinced that there is a
chance to increase the output of the
Barre quarries and that there is money
in it for the Barre railroad In other
words, he has pickedsa live horse.
