Local Securities

Following is the weekly trade letter
of John {. Cutler. Jr. & Co:
There has been 4 steady expansion in
trade throughout the United states dur
ing the past few months ana confidence in
the immediate future remains undis-
turocd. These favorable conditions have
been further augmented by the bount-
rul crops that were harvested. so the .pco-
pie of this nation have every reason 10
be thankful To Providence for tho pros
pcriy prevailing.
Fairly satisfactory conditions continue
in nearly all mercantile lines in Utah.
The fine weather has been OF great bcnc-
fit To the farmers. as it has enabled them
10 get the beets out or the ground and
haul them on better roads 10 the sugar
factories. The farmers are also able 70
complete their fall ploTnG and pat their
farms In shape for the winter. The $2,
100000 paid out for beets is greatly benc-
fitting business in Utah and Idaho. Agri
cultural implement settlements arc now
being made and houses in that line
port very satisfactory progress. General
collections are fair. The banks report
some increase in the demand for money
with plenty on hand for all legitimate
purposes.
Local securities have been more active
lately. Sugar stocks have not declined
very much so far on account of expected
tariff Legislation. as IL is hoped that The
new congress and administration VIII be
more or less conservative and not too
radical. Ttal-Tdaho Sugar company stock
sold at $50 and SS.725 per share and
Consolidated Wagon & Machine company
stock sold al S101 per share.

S. v. A. Wins Foot Ball Victory.

Eastern High School, of Washington,
thought by many to have an excellent
chance for the championship of the
District this season, was treated to an
unpleasant surprise on Saturday when
they met the cadets of the Shenan-
doah Valley Academy at Winchester,
on the latter's field, and were handily
defeated by the score of 90 to 6. The
game was brilliant exhibition of foot
ball under the new rules and fairly
sparkled with excitment from the first
kickoff until the end. On the initial
kickoff, George Eyster, right tackle
on the cadet team, and Charles Town
boy, took the bali on his forty yard line
and aided by splendid interference ran
through the whole visiting team for
touchdown. Craighill Perry at quarter
back, also from this town, played con-
sistently effective game. He ran back
punts in fine style and showed to great
advantage on line plays. tearing through
the center for several good gains. Cap
tain VIM. Bunting at center and his
brother Lindsay Bunting at left half
back, put up their usual SPLENDID ex-
hibitlons. clearly outplaying their men
on all sides and doing defensive work
that would have done credit to any col
lege player. But the work of the
whole team, as a team. was what made
the victory possible and the cadets
proved to be smoothly running and
highly effective foot ball machine that
will probably be heard from in more
than one game this season in a way
that will reflect only credit upon their
school.

Donation Day For The Hospital.

At meeting of some ladies represent

decided to appoint Thursday October "a

we'll the splendid work that this hospital
is doing and its able staff OF physicians.

and hampered only by lack OF means.
During the last season one third OF the
patients have been poor people, treated
at loss to the hospitals, but their lives
have been saved or they have been res
cued from helpless invalidism. Recog-
missing this fact we appeal with confidence
to the people TO help in this good work
by contributing sheets, pillow cases or
other bedding, night dresses or any arti-
cles used by the SICK, as we'll as pro-
visions: such as potatoes, apples, canned
or preserved fruit or groceries. A COM
mittee from each church will lie at the
hospital from 10 until IL o'clock, and
from until S o'clock on October 40 to
receive donations. Let those who have
known sickness sympasize with others
and do what they can to comfort and re-
lieve. and let the we'll and strong give a
