The Waste Paper Evil
in the Alleys

Rock Island. May 23.-Editor The
Argus: 1t seems that many of our
citizens have gotten the impression
that the merchants of the city are the
greatest offenders in the matter OF
sIrewing paper and rubbish where it
may be carried over the city by the
winds. No doubt some of our mer-
chants are censurable, but / think an
inspection of the streets and alleys in
the residence districts will show that
there is greater carelessness in those
parts Of town than in the business sec
tons. one alley inspected within the
last few days, and it is not a very bad
alley either, revealed that one house
owner had evidently dumped a basket
full OF loose paper in the center of the
alley and two other householders had
strewn garbage on the surface of the
alley.
Ii seems to me the Rock Island peo-
pie are responsible for their own con-
dition and the city authorities cannot
easily accomplish anything without the
cooperation Of the people.

"Harmon's fight is being made by

Cattle are so low and almost un-
saleable at Portland at this time that
shipments from eastern oregon are
likely to start toward the eastern mar
kets.
While the trade here is depressed
with the extreme top for steers at
$G40 for more than a single animal
or two, sales in the Missouri river
market are being made as high as IS.
The difference between local values
and those in effect at competitive
points is so startling that preparations
are being made by leading shippers
to send their supplies elsewhere.
BY starving the local trade in this
way, it can only be the question of
a short time before the price will
either be forced higher at North Port
land or else killers will get no cattle
| to fill their wants. On
Quite a heavy amount of stock
that came forward yesterday after
noon was not sold this morning, be-
| cause there is practically no competi-
| ton at this time at North Portland.
There is but one really big buyer of
! cattle at North Portland since S. &
| S. quit the local field and this inter-
est is still SO heavily supplied with
stock that there is practically no de-
mand outside of a forced one.
Meat Business Is Divided.
The meat business is now so badly
| divided at Portland that none of the
killers are purchasing the quantity of
stock they formerly did. Frye of Sc
attle was forced to come to Portland
| because of the invasion of the Puget
sound territory by Swift interests and
I it is now stated that Carsten of Ia
coma is about to open wholesale
! house here to give battle to the local
| killers. Besides these there are sew
eral other local killers who have Sc
| cured a slice of the dressed meat trade
of this territory.
While there are but two sales of
steers at $3.50 in the North Portland
yards during the past "a hours, one
animal constituted each lot. Car
loads could not have been moved be-
| yond $640 and this was the extreme
| figure. Even at that the market did
not open at all briskly.

RABBITS DAZZLED BY LIGHTS.
Sits Astraddle of Radiator and Waits
For Lights to Bring
COttOntails.

Atlantic, Iowa, Dec. 23.-When F.
M. Nebe, a shoe merchant, saddled
the radiator of his automobile, jump
ed astride and armed with shotgun
started out from town, half the in
habitants thought the sheriff should
be sent for him and the board of in
sanity called at once. But Nebe was
only trying out new sport of which
he is said to be the inventor. Nebe's
latest is hunting rabbits by automo-
bile. In the evening when the big
lamps on his car are lighted, rabbits
which are thick in this section of the
state, are attracted by the glare. The
rabbits will stand in the road in the
light until the car is almost upon
them. Sitting astride his saddle Nebe
has fine shot at the Dummies as they
stand in the road in front of him.
He comes home with big string OF
rabbit meat in a few minutes hunt.
