STOCK MARKET.

(From Mondays Journal.) }


There was firmer feeling gener-
ally in the livestock trade at the open
| ing of the weeks business at North
Portland this morning. There was
an advance of zoe in the price of
swine, tops reaching $3.50 early in
the day. General sales of this quail
| ity were made around $3.50 however.
There was a very good run of hogs
in the yards over Sunday. totals be-
ing 1888 head compared with 1904
week ago, 694 a year ago and 207
head this same day two years ago.
Today's advance in the price of
swine at North Portland places the
market here on a par with Kansas
| City and above Chicago. OF all the
American markets, Chicago is the only
one to show a higher price than North
| Portland today.
North Portland hog market:
Best light 1885 a $40
Medium ............ $500 S.S5
Medium heavy ....... 500 M S.25

One lot of steers sold at an advance
of a dime over previous prices at the
| opening of business in the North
Portland yards today. Steers were in
excellent call and early transactions
were about 10c over the figures which
ruled late last week.

Ordinary bulls .... 450@5.75
Softness continues to be shown in
the market for mutton at North Port
land. There was a fair run over Sun
day, but killers continue to look else
where than the sheep pens, because
they already have supplies sufficient
for their immediate needs. For lambs
the market continues in quite good
condition, with tops still quoted up
to $3.50 in the yards, although it
takes exceptional quality to bring this
| figure.

The School of Music Is Busy.

me oCnOOI OF MUSIC is Busy.
The University School of Music is
In the midst of a busy year, with an
enrolment as large as ever before
The various activities of the school
have brought out some good results in
the student concerts already given and
some splendid things are in course OF
preparation.
The first OF a series OF three con
certs in the Swisher Theater was
given on December by the Mason
String Quartet of Charleston, w. Va.
This proved to be, aside from the
splendid educational value, a most en-
ioyable affair. This organization, with
few more years experience, will
rank with the good ones, and 1t is
something that musical West Virginia
should be proud of.
The second concert OF this series is
to be joint recital by Lucy Marsh
and AVIAN Williams, on February 4,
and the third will be a song recital by
Alessandro Bonci, the famous Italian
tenor. This is a fine series OF con
certs and greatly to the advantage OF
University students
The first Choral Society Concert was
given in Commencement Hall, on De-
cember 10, and was a gratifying ex-
position OF what can be done for stu
dents in choral singing.
The program was a varied one. open
Ing with parts OF Mozart's Twelfth
Mass and including old English part
songs, folk songs, some women's
choruses, and a group of negro re-
ligious songs. This last group proved
most unusual innovation on such a
program and was heartily received.
The spring concert will be given
about Easter time. The work will be
the Easter cantata, "Olivet to Cal
vare," by Maunder.
The orchestra has in preparation
programs to be given early in the new
year.
This gives University students who
play stringed or wind instruments an
opportunity to play serious musical
compositions that are not met with
outside the orchestra.
The change in the theoretical de-
partment from twice a week 10 daily
recitation, with full University credit
and fifteen hours of music allowed to-
ward degree in the School of Arts
and Sciences, has aroused a great deal
Of interest.

Campus Club.

With the advent of many new faces
among them in September 1t was
borne in upon the minds of some Of the
faculty the necessity for an organiza-
ton composed of faculty people that
would serve to bind together the vari-
Gus members into a more homogene-
Gus body-to create an esprit de corns
and a realization of the fact that
they were all members of one BODY
working for one purpose. So Presi-
ueht Hodges sent out the call for an
Intorma gathering of the faculty, with
the wives and husbands of the same

SAFETY RAZOR
ny GEORGE FITCH,
Author Of "At Good Old Siwash."

A safety razor is a sort, of society for
the prevention Of cruelty to faces. That
we are living in a vital and tremendous
age is proven once more by the fact
that the safety razor was perfected only
n few wears ago after mankind had
suffered without it for 5000 years.
The old style razor which fiourished
during most Of these years was sharp
blade with q fappy handle. II covered
n wide area of face at one swoop and
removed whiskers, lips. noses and other
projections with equal ease. 1t could
be sharpened by a genius by slappine 1t
on q smooth, nat piece OF leather. When
dull II acted upon the beard like pair
OF tweezers. From to o'clock In
the morning in the bloody past. the
world rang and echoed with shrieks OF
woe rs men, who were not genuises
ana couldn't sharpen their razors. Re-
moved the outlying portions of their
faces without anaesthetics. In those
days Williams, who wished to disguise
themselves didn't buy boards. They
shaved themselves with a strange razor.
People wonder nowadays why the
young men Of the eos wrapped them
selves up in such billows Of whiskers.
They would not wonder. however, II they
had ever tried to restrain said whiskers
with an oid-fashioned face hoe.
The safety razor Is SO simple that it
makes the past centuries look like fools.

shaver from digging down into his jaw
on a hard corner and nicking the blade
on a wisdom tooth. These blades can
be replaced when dull and can either
be sharpened or fed to the cat. In fact

A Sensible Proposition.

Senator Roots suggestion that Cabi
net officers be given seats on the floor
of the Senate and House is entitled
to serious consideration. 1t is not the
first time that the proposition has been
broachcd, for an elaborate report was
made upon it many years ago, and
there has always been sentiment in
favor of its adoption
The system of ministerial participa-
ton in the proceedings of the House
of Parliament has been practiced with
marked success in England. 1t is true
that Great Britain has what is COM
monty known as a cabinet government.
but none the less a closer relation be-
tween the executive and legislative
branches in this country might be at
tempted with success. 1t would be an
innovation to place our Cabinet Off
GERS in a position where they could be
publicly questioned as to the conduct
of affairs, and they might not always
find it an agreeable position. At the
same time, the suggestion is in line
with the tendency of the times to
bring government nearer to the people,
and it ought to result in clearer un-
derstanding and in more dispatch in
the transaction of business.

The Senate Committee rmanships.

The rearrangement of the commit
ices deprives some Senators of the
places they expected and would have
received under the old seniority rule;
but the present apportionment makes
the Senate more responsive to the SEN
timent of the country, as expressed at
the last election. As it is, that body
now is made to represent the whole
country, and not merely to conserve its
traditions.
The placing of the two Senators
from Oklahoma is a novel departure
that will not be cherished by the money
centers of the East. Mr.. Owen is
chairman of the Banking and Cur
cency Committee, and Mr.. Gore is a
member of the Committee on Finance

The Hard-worked Diplonatist.

Compare the activities of any of our
ambassadors or ministers abroad, past,
present, or prospective, with those OF
the representatives of foreign powers
stationed in Washington, and one
readily arrives at the conclusion that
the American of high official position
in any foreign country has what may
be styled "a soft snap" 1t is quite
true that American ambassadors and
ministers, more particularly i'll Paris
and London and Berlin, are often call
ed upon to attend official dinners and
indulge in those assurances of good
will naturally expected from the after
dinner speaker voicing the sentiments
of a friendly country, but when it
comes to the matter of travel, the dis
tinguished American abroad isn't ''in
it with the representatives of foreign
powers in Washington. Whatever
may be the foreigners ornamental So
cial qualities the real test comes in
his capacity for trained work, sustain
ed effort. and the ability and willing
ness to start for anywhere within 5000
miles at few hours notice The itin-
erary of the majority of ambassadors
and foreign ministers is only equaled
by that of star actor on the now
royal highway, formerly known as ''the
road" His excellency is expected TO
cover not merely our National Capi-
tai, but almost every important city
in the Union; Ambassadors Bryce, JUS

much at home on limited train" as
at their own particular embassy
The representatives of Norway and
Sweden are always being called on TO
make speeches at their respective coun-
try peoples banquets and reunions in

the present moment. the popular Dan

being so lionized in California that he
is breaking the record for speech
making. entirely losing his reputation
as silent man, and promising any
thing and everything when his ancient
country is represented at the great ex-
position for which San Francisco is
already making elaborate preparations.
The fact is, that ours is a large
country. and those to which the major

Murphy's Petition.

The significance which certain New
York newspapers attach to the very
Hutter of Charles F. Murphys eyelash
gets rather tiresome. Were the Tam
many leader an unlimited monarch, his
court could watch his varying moods
no more humbly than these news
papers An incident Monday night is
in point.
Gov. Sulzcr, Charles F. Murphy,
Senator James A. O'Gorman, and
other leaders attended dinner of the
Friendly Sons of ST. Patrick. One
newspaper Tuesday morning said that,
although the Gov ernor and Mr.. Murphy
sat close together, neither showed the
slightest recognition of the other"
What a woodworking situation
How suggestive of the impending clash
Of stupendous forcesl How the shivers
ran tip and down the backs of the re-
porters.
But, stay. A diplomat arises:
WHICH, IONSNSl, SOilIHlSslOuSl -hS-
Call arose to introduce Gov. Sulzer.
and said, with a little emphasis, Let
all arise and toast His Excellency,'
Murphy looked up at the Executive,
lifted his glass. and drank to him.
Then number about him broke into
cheers. This friendly reunion coming
almost Immediately after Murphy's re-
fusal to attend the Sulzer birthday din
ncr gave rise to great surprise"
The dove of peace futters DER the
banquet for moment. but only for a
moment. A cloud OF doubt settles
down about the diners.
Neither those at the speakers table
nor among the prominent politicians at
the other tables could explain the sud-
den action OF Senator James A. O'Gor-
I man, who had been seated at the left
Of Mccall all evening. Almost imme-
distely after Gov. Suffers arrival he
left the table, and was absent from his
chair almost throughout Sulzer's
speech"
Passing rapidly over the fact that a
refusal by Mr. Murphy to drink the
Governors health would have been
poor politics, as we'll as bad manners,
and that Senator O'Gorman may have
had a reason-simple and good-for
leaving the table, we suggest that the
cause of good government would be
more rapidly promoted if the analytical
powers of New York reporters were
devoted to the causes of differences
among the mighty. rather than their
outward manifestation. The idea that
AIR. Murphy has the power arbitrarily
to control either Gov. Sulzer or SEN
ator O'Gorman is tonlmyrot. The Gov
ernor has nearly two years to serve.
All the public wants of him is indie
pendent and fearless administration OF
his Office. Murphy, in revenge, may
prevent his denomination and election,
but the public cares nothing about that
Gov. Sulzer is paid to be honest and
Embossed for two years. If he is. the
chances are that Tammany will be
afraid to oppose him. Senator O'Gor-
man has four years more to serve, and
is even more free than Gov. Sulzcr OF
any real necessity of bowling to Tam
many influence. We sometimes sus-
pect that Murphy is, as Bismarck said
of Disrseli, "a lath painted to look
like iron"
