The contention Of the Signal is
that every shipment of hogs to the
Portland market should bring as
much as the same shipment would
bring in Chicago, and the producer
should be given the difference in
freight rates. Mr.. Nelson who re-
ceived the letter from Mr. .Daughtrey
informs the Signal he sold his hogs
at 5000 90 less than he could have

and eastern markets because Of the
better prices offered, he feels GER
tain it does not take special training
or even any particular amount of
gray matter to figure out that there
is something wrong at Portland. The
Signal has no disposition to be I'M
just, but the very life of this COM
munity depends upon the prosperity
of our farmers and stockraisers and
the newspaper which fears to take up
the cudgel in their behalf is certainly
an impotent factor in the upbuilding
of the country. Weiser Signal.

have topped the Kansas City marke
within three months and hogs from
this section have topped the Chicago
market within three months. This
being the case the question of the
difference in quality has been settled
and there is seemingly no justice in
the claim that Idaho hogs are in
ferior to any other. If the Signal is
correct in this, and the evidence
shows the price of meat products
from the Portland packers are as
high as the products of the Chicago
packing houses, Notwithstanding the
great difference in the cost of trans
portation to and from the eastern
market, then the Signal is right in
its claim that both producer and con-
sumner are being robbed by our phil
anthropic neighbors at Portland.

The modern French letter box
has the shape Of pillar, profusely
ornamented with the conventional
lily. The whole box or stand is
fashioned after a plant, and the top

Bamboo opaIs.

Bamboo opals are peculiar gems
which are sometimes found in the
stem of the bamboo. This gem is
very rare from the fact that not one
in a thousand bamboo stems con-
tains it. These. vegetable growths
are called tobacur by the Filipi-
nos. Some of them are SO similar
that is, they exhibit SO perfectly the
characteristics of the opal - that
even experts frequently fail to dis
tinguish them from the real gem.

Shachet's failure to keep an agreement
by which she bound herself to support
her husband while he was attending the
State University of Colorado constI-
tuted cruelty was the finding Of a jury
in Judge Wright's court to-day As a
result OF the jury's verdict Shachet
will be granted divorce as soon as a
motion for a new trial has been dis
posed Of
Mrs. Shachet sued for separate main
tenance, charging that her husband mad
not contributed toward her support and
had renowned her. while Shachet in
cross complaint, asked for divorce.
The evidence showed that Mrs
Shachet, in compliance with the agree
ment, had given her husband all her
savings and kept him in college until
all her resources had been exhausted.
The couple then had row, and the
court proceedings were the result.
