Grain. flour and iced.

Wheat-Although the market has
taken a slight advance over the quo
tations of last week and is holding
steady at the present level, business is
very inactive. This is due, in a large
measure, to buyers holding off until
after the tax assessments. What little
export business is being done at pres
ent is confined to a few small ship
ments to China and Japan.
Flour-No changes have been noted
in quotations. The market. however,
is unsteady and there may be a slight
decline due to the fact that consider
able flour is now being shipped in
from Montana.
Business in this department
is very quiet, due, in part, to the leth
argy in the wheat market. Quotations

SPOKANE WEEKLY REPORTS.
Provisions.

Butter-The market is very firm and
the probability is that it will remain
so for the next 80 days. The month
of March is usually tight month for
butter. as it is between both of the
dairying seasons.
Cheese - Quotations are slightly
weak. This is due to the fact that
the demand is somewhat curtailed and
holders in the country are getting
nervous and putting more goods on
the market.
Eggs-Quotations have taken a rad
ical drop during the past week, and
fresh ranch eggs are now quoted at
$3.50 to the producer. Considerable
fresh eggs are now being shipped in
from California, Oregon, Nebraska and
Kansas. Storage eggs are off the mar
ket.
Poultry-Quotatio in this depart
ment are steady and unchanged. A
satisfactory amount of business is be-
ing done with the demand and the
supply about equal. The situation in
regard to turkeys, geese and ducks
shows little change from week to
week.
Fresh Meats-Hogs and sheep have
taken an advance of from 25 to so
cents over the quotation of last week
and are firm at the present level. A
strong influence in this situation is
the exceptional scarcity of beef cattle.
Local houses report that during the
past 10 days 20 cars of dressed Deef
has been shipped in from the east.
There is also a shortage of supplys in
the hog market all over the United
States.
Lard and Cured Neutrality-suspicious.
on both local and eastern lard remain
unchanged. The market is strong,
however, due to the restricted supply
of hogs. Both eastern and local hams
have advanced a cent during the past
week. Local bacon has also taken a
slight advance. Reports from Chicago
state that there is a shortage of from
two. TO three thousand hogs every
week.
Hides and Wool-No change is re-
ported in this department. Wool con
tinues weak with prospects of a de-
cline due to the tariff agitation. Hides
are also somewhat weak on account
of the inferior grade at this time OF
the year
Bonners Ferry herald. [volume] (Bonners Ferry, Idaho) 1904-current, 1913-02-28
fruits and VeaetabIes.

Alphabetically there has been no
change in the situation. The demand
is still very sluggish, with prospects
of little change for some time to come.
Reports from New York stated that
quotations are nrm and business &C
tive ana that dealers are inclined to
take an optimistic view of the situa-
ton.
Other Fruits-Other fruits remain
unchanged. Business in general is of
fair proportions and the market is
holding steady.
otatoes-During the past week po-
tatoes have declined a trifie and are
now quoted at so cents. But in spite
of this there still seems to be no lire
in the situation and the probability is
there will be no material change I'M
til seed time.
Oelery-Quotations have taken a
further decline during the past week
and now stand at from rs to IS cents.
Ais is due to the fact that the celery
that is now coming in is smaller OF
stock and has been trimmed more.
Other Vegetables-Other quotations
remain unchanged with a fair volume
of business being done and prices, in
general holding steady.

BAY STATE TAX UPHELD
Right to Derive Revenue From
Foreign Corporations Is
Sustained.

The Massachusetts, foreign corpora
ton tax was today upheld as constitu-
tional by the Supreme Court of the
United States. Under this decision the
commonwealth will be able to collect
many thousands of dollars as an excise
tax upon foreign corporations which
have a usual place of business in Mas
sachusetts.
A stubborn fight arose over the va
lidity Of the law. Several foreign cor
porations took the matter into the
courts claiming that the tax was an
interference with interstate commerce
The commonwealth assumed the posi-
ton that it was merely taxing the
right to do business within the COM
monwealth and not the Interstate bust
ness. Both the Baltic Mining Com
pany, a Michigan mining corporation.

sets, and the S. S. White Dental Manu-
featuring Company. a Pennsylvania
corporation, manufacturing dental sup
plies sold In Boston at a salesroom.
claimed that their state and their inter-
state business were inseparable and
| that the tax came within the principle

against Kansas, in which a tax on for
| eign corporations was annulled few
years ago.

NO NECESSARY EVILS"
DECLARES EX-GOv. FOLK
Saws None Need Exist in a Properly
Conducted National, State or
Municipal Government.

Joseph w. Folk, solicitor of the State
Department, arraigned existing political
conditions in a speech at the mass meet
ing, under the auspices df the Y. M. C.
A., at the Academy of Music, yesterday.
He declared that there are no "neces-
sary evils in a properly conducted gov
eminent, national. state municipal,
and holding that ten years from now
we shall look back on things that today
are considered with complacency as we
now look back ten years to the time when
bribery and corruption in government
was accepted as a matter Of course"
In his address, former Gov. Folk adj
vocated the enactment for the District
of Columbia of the abatement and in
junction law designed to the wipe out the
red light district, which bill has already
psssed the Senate. He said, in this con-
nection:
Another delusion of municipal govern
ments has been that the brothel is a
necessary evil There are no necessary
evils in a properly conducted govern
ment of any kind, and tolerated evils
become abuses. about which the people
have a right to complain.
Seven years ago 1t was asserted by
many that large cities could not exist
without the Sunday saloon. When the
saloons In st. Louis were closed on Sun
days dire disaster was prophesied. But
the actual result has been so beneficial
advocate a return to the old days of
Sunday saloon lawlessness."
