MARKETS.
COTTON SLUMPS;
 IS POINTS OFF Closes Steady After Decline Due to Rain Reports
 From Texas.

New York, July 25.-A severe break occurred at the opening of the cotton market this morning under weak cables and reports of further rains over Texas. First prices showed a ~ue,cline of IS to 20 points. There was a good deal of liquidation by room traders, but it did not appear that the largest long interests had marketed any considerable amount of their cot ton.
 After prices had declined further to within point or two of the lowest for the season, there was a sharp rally, in which about half the loss was re- gained.
 Part of this improvement was on cables that the Servians had decided to acquiesce to the Austrian ultimat um under protest, and also on private reports that only scattered showers had fallen in central Texas, where rain is most needed.
 The official forecast indicated part ly cloudy conditions in the Southwest over Sunday, but did not mention showers, and this fact with a little foreign buying and more reassuring late political news from Europe steadied the late market , to points nom the lowest and left it finally 13 to IS points under the previous night K Cotton frturaS closed steady

and kindred troubles incidental TO get
ting repairs.
This matter OF service is perhaps OF
more value TO the purchaser OF gasoline
engines aud cream separators than other
lines. He can 90 to the implement
house and inspect all the standard
makes, see them run, put them TO any
number Of tests and then select the
one that seems best suited to his re-
quirements. II at any time anything
goes wrong with it the dealer can be
reached by phone and within the day
will have man on the ground to rem
edy the trouble. The mail-order house
in Seattle or Chicago can't send man
to fix the trouble every time something
gets out of whack with one OF their
machines, and in the course OF time
the cost OF repairs for such machines
would very probably exceed the diff
ference in first cost.
Local dealers, in selecting their lines,
always try and get the best, as their
success in getting future business will
depend largely upon the service and
satisfaction given by the merchandise
sold. For this reason price must be
secondary consideration in choosing his
stock. Quality always has been, and
always will be, the corner stone of COM
mercial success.

STATE CAPITAL NEWS

Governor Ernest Lister now estimates
that state departments and institutions
under his control will be able to turn
back to the general fund at the end Of
the present biennium $450,000 of the
appropriations made by the last legis-
lature. This reversion will 60 far to
prevent shortage in state funds which
would have proved serious had the state
departments expended all the money
voted them by the legislature.
Prospects are that comparatively
small shortage in the general fund may
result next spring, before the large tax
payments come in, under the present
circumstances. How much more SER
ious this might have proved but for the
economy of the state administration
and the use OF the veto power to clip
several million dollars from the tax
burden of the state, is indicated by the
present financial condition OF the state
and the promises Of economy now be-
ing made by legislative candidates OF
all parties.
The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1914-10-30

A comprehensive budget of the
needs of all state institutions during the
next biennium is being prepared by
the board OF control for submission to
Governor Lister and the legislature,
following a series Of conferences with
the superintendent Of the IL institu-
tons during the past week. The re-
quests for maintenance appropriations
will be based on lower estimated per
capita cost than during the past bien-
mum, as the maintenance cost has
been reduced at all but two Of the in
stitutions. The board is carefully 60
ing over requests Of superintendent
for new buildings.
