New York, n. Y, Dec. 12.-In spite. Of
further heavy pressure against Union
Pacific the stock market IN general
was more stable during the first ses-
sion today. Traders were still at a
loss to account for the selling Of Union
Pacific but the effect Of the break
was restricted principally to Few
speculative stocks and there was no
recurrence Of the widespread nqulda-
ton in high grade investment issues
When it was demonstrated that the
general list was showing better resist
ance bull traders grew more con1ldenl
and began to absorb stocks on rising
scale. Shorts also beat retreat Wnlicn
became a rOut as the price OF Union
Pacific rose with a rush, jumping as
much as a point between sales until u
touched 1861 as compared with 1904
early and 155 at yesterdays close.
There were advances OF one 10 Two
points over last night in such stocks
as Canadian Pacific, St. Paul. Great
Northern, Northern Pacific, Leh1gh
Valley Steel and Southern Pacific
Bonds were firm
Speculation having returned 10 some
thing like a normal basis, fluctuations
became moderate, and aside from some
irregularity in Union Pacific and Read
ing the market was commonplace.
While there were pauseS in the AFTER
noon advance, due to the completion of
the urgent covering in some active
stocks, the trend was upward and the
average level more than point above
yesterdays close
The market closed easy. Realization
made more of an impression on the
prices fell in an orderly fashion on
moderate offerings. Most Of the lead
ers ruled a point or more below the
best.

PAY IN ADVANCE PLAN
OF COLLECTION HIT
Manager of Business Mems Protective
Association Tells Luncheon Guests
About NIedits.


Pay as you enter collection agencies
are not satisfactory. G. C. Richerson,
manager of the Business Mems Protective
association, warned the business men
against this class OF collection agencies
at the chamber of commerce luncheon
Thursday.
He said that there is a firm in st.
Louis which now is being investigated,
and to which one Ell Paso firm has con
tributed SS3 for the collection of $1,000
in debts. Nothing further was heard
from this concern, he said, except that
they would write and say that they
were working on the accounts. No money
was turned in to the FL Paso firm that
had been collected by the concern. Mr..
Richerson also said that he understood
there was in FL .Paso the representative
of a Chicago firm which insisted upon
payment of a fee in advance before old
accounts would be taken for collection.
This representative, he said, wanted $50
for collecting $3.50, and wanted the $50
in advance, although the local firm of
fered him all but 500 of the total
amount. If it was collected.
Credits" was the subject of the asso-
citation managers talk to the business
men. He traced the history of credits
from the time when debtors were i'm
~risoned, down through the various
stages until the present time, when, he
said, it is almost impossible to force a
man to pay a debt in Texas unless he
has considerable money.

THE SPORTY EPITRIX
GETS on HIS JOB


We know II is so because Mr.. A.
l.. Lovett, assistant entomologlst at
0. A. c., says so-and what he says
goes with the horse editor. Accord
ing to Mr.. Loyett, Epltrix subscrinlta
has gotten onto his Job again. Epi-
trix is a gay old sport that always
plays fair, fights square and always
in the open. In fact Epitrix has no
tricks at all. but picks out as his es-
pcclal opponent, the potato, and no
one can charge that he can slip up
on the blind side Of a spud that has
as many eyes as Argus and no back
10 get behind He also takes a side
whack at the tomato, when the null
titudlnous eyed spud Is not handy.
subscrinlta is the family name ac-
quired probably from the habit Of
leaving his mark instead OF subscrib-
ing his name to his work To every
DAY folks, Epitnox Is Just the COM
mon flea beetle, but he Is just as
mean by that name as the more clas-
sical one.

The BAND
MONEY MUST BE RAISED TO
MAINTAIN 1T, AND THE CITY
CAN ILL AFFORD TO GET
ALONG WITHOUT IT.

Shall we have band this summer
or shall we not? This is the ques-
ton that is uppermost in the minds
of those soliciting funds for the
maintenance of the band this sum-
mer. About 5000 Of the $4,000 neces-
sary for the holding of the concerts
has been subscribed, but the present
indications seem to be that the bal
ance Is going to be hard to get and
possibly will not be subscribed. I'm
less approximately all Of the amount
is subscribed, there will not be any
concerts as the band will not begin
giving concerts until sufficient sub
scriptions have been guaranteed to
indicate that as the season advances,
they will be increased. The tempor-
ary band stand at Wilson park has
been moved and placed on its foun-
dation, and with the electric fountain
which is to be installed in the park
soon, 1t needs band to add pleasure
to beauty. Then there is the cherry
fair to be supplied with music
The Elks are soon to be enter
tanned as well as the election COM
ing on? Ask yourself these ques-
tions and then when the solicitor
comes around with the subscription
list put your name down for as large
amount as you possibly can.
Every city or town of any conse-
quence throughout the entire coun-
try has its band and the citizens are
loyal to it. Salem can well profit by
their example.

DON'T PULL OUT
The GRAY HAIRS
A Few Applications Of Simple Rem.
edy VIII Bring Back the Natural
Color.

pull out one gray hair and a dozen
will take its place" is an old saying,
which is, to a great extent, true, II
nc steps are taken to stop the cause.
When gray hairs appear 1t is a sign
that Nature needs assistance. It is
Natures call for help. Gray hair,
dull, llfeless hair or hair that Is fall
ing out, is not necessarily a sign Of
advancing age, for there are thou
sands of elderly people with perfect
heads of hair without a single streak
of gray
When gray hairs come, or when the
bair seems to be lifeless or dead,
some good, reliable hair-restorlng
treatment should be resorted TO at
once. Special lists say that one Of the
best preparations to use is the old
fashioned sage tea" which our
grandparents used. The best prepar-
alton of this kind Is Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Hair Remedy, a prepar-
alton Of domestic sage and sulphur,
scientifically compounded with later
discovered hair tonics and stimu-
lants, the whole mixture being care
fully balanced and tested by experts.
Wyeths Sage and Sulphur is clean
and wholesome and perfectly harm
less. It refreshes dry, parched hair,
removes dandruff and gradually re-
stores faded or gray hair to It's nat
ural color.
Don't delay another minute. Start
rsing Wyeths Sage and Sulphur at
once and see what a difference a few
days treatment will make in your
hair.
This preparation is offered to the
public at so cents a bottle, and ia
recommended and sold by all drug
gists. ]. c. Perry, druggist.

May BOND
TO BUILD
new BRIDGE
CITY COUNCIL PASSES RESOLU.
TION FAVORNG PUTTING NEW
BRIDGE ACROSS THE RIVER,
AND IN MEANTIME PUTS
WATCHMAN ON OLD BRIDGE.

After listening to the report sub
mitted by engineers who examined
the bridge across the Willamette
river and also report of the bridge
committee on the subject, the city
council last night through resolution
went on record as favoring the con-
struction in the near future of new
bridge.
Beyond the passing of the resolu-
tion no further steps were taken last
night. In the near future, however,
It is planned to bring the subject
fully to the attention of the people
through discussion. The plan out
lined in the report is to issue bonds
for the building Of the structure and
1t is to be built at the site of the
present bridge or at some other suit
able place along the river.
The bridge committee also submit
ted report with relation toSthe re-
pair of the old bridge, and after this
watchman will be maintained at a
salary of $50 month to regulate
the traffic. By this means, 1t is
hoped to keep the bridge in a safe
condition until a new bridge can be
substituted for 1t.
The improvements for the bridge
cost the city aproxlmatesly $4,000.
When compared with what it cost the
city some time ago when practically
the same work was done by con-
tractor, it represents a saving of
about $500.

The Resolution.
Resolved by us as resident labor
ing men of the city of Salem, that we
demand the enforcement of the
amendment to the city charter adopt
ed at the last city election providing
that preference be given to bona flde
citizens in public work, such as con-
structlon of streets, sewers, side
walks and crosswalks, or public
buildings, and railroads and traction
lines having franchises from the city
government of which we are a part.
Resolved, that a copy of these
resolutions be furnished the mayor
and city attorney and that they be
requested to insert in every contract
for public work the language of the
eEarter::. In the execution of any
contract for public work by the city
or by its agents, or by any contrac-
tor, contracting firm or corporation
preference shall be given in the EN-
playment of labor to bona fide resi-
dents Of the city
Resolved that we demand consld-
GRAFTON of this resolution on the lines
drawn up and submitted by the Sa-
lem Trades and Labor council to en-
force the provisions OF the charter
that provides for the employment Of
bonaflde resident laborers, who are
citizens OF our state and country OF
have declared their intention to be-
come such. We believe this Is a
sound principle, and when they can
not do the work that the city and
county and state have to perform
there will be time enough to bring
in nonresident laborers."
Copies of the resolutions were
served on the mayor and city attor.
