LEARNED AT THE STATE CAPITAL
The editor of the Signal. in order to
maintain the reputation Of the paper
for dealing frankly and openly with its
readers, visited Boise last week Tor the
purpose Of gathering Information,
which could be relied upon and which
would be devoid Of partisan coloring,
concerning the misconduct Of public
officials of the state. Only "a hours
were spent In the political mecca, and
the holy Of HOLES under the big dome
was only visited twice, but sufficient
was learned to turn the stomach OF
an ostrich and to bring a blush of
shame to the cheek of every citizen Of
the state.
It is not a pleasant duty for a Re-
publican newspaper to announce that
Its party administration Of state at
fairs has been mostly rotten, but it is
a duty nevertheless, and the Signal has
never been known to shirk no matter
how itshurt Our belief In the funda-
mental principles OF the Republican
party does not deter US from CRITICS.

failed in their duty, but rather is an

Haines appointed Axel Ramstedt. head
of the state tax commission, to ex-
anime the affairs of tho treasury de-

completed the task and the report was
handed to the governor, II was found
he had gone further than It was intend

appointees were caught in the dragnet.
and Mr.. Ramstedt was called before

PORTLAND MARKET REPORT.

Portland, Friday, Jan. 1. 1915.
Receipts for the week have been:
Cattle, $50; calves, 8; hogs, 2SO9;
sheep, 1878.
Cattle.
That well finished cattle can bring
good prices commensurate with their
quality was amply demonstrated Mon
day when steers went to 500 and cows
to 6.S5. There has not been much OF a
run this week, receipts showing light
no doubt, on account of the usual holt
days.
Hogs.
Light run OF hogs were general all
week remaining steady with last
KEGS closing. Tops are today, $3.50.
Sheep.
A few more sheep are coming for
ward than for previous weeks, al
though receipts are still far below
normal. Buyers are willing to pay
$3.50 for good lambs, $5.25 for ewes
and $3.50 for yearling wethers.

U S. NOTE OF MAY IS DECLARED OFFERS OF
PREPARATION COULD NOT EXCUSE PRACTICE

Washington, May 26. The
course of the United States gov
eminent in the case of the Am
erican steamer Nebraskan, dam
aged off the coast of Ireland
was undetermined tonight be-
cause officials were without def
mite advice as to whether the
ship was torpedoed or struck a
mine.
Messages from Ambassador
Page and Consul General Skin
ner at London today transmit
ted the report of the British ad-
miralty that the vessel had been
torpedoed, but officials noted
with much interest, the cap
tain's report to his owners, in
dicating a doubt as to whether
the Nebraskan was hit by a tor
pedo or a mine.
