NEARLY 1000 RECRUITS
ARE HERE FOR TRAINING
Col. Hobbs Hopes to Send First
1000 to France at a Very
Early Date.

BY this time next week it is be-
eyed that Col. Hobbs. in charge Of
replacement troops for France, will
have his first thousand recruits on
their way to the front, or ready to
SAIL
The middle of May probably will
find these men in Germany taking the
places of regulars whose terms have
expired or who are incapacitated for
field service.
These lads are right on the job in
every respect. Some Of them have
served before and have come back for
another taste of Army life. Gener-
ally, however. the new soldiers are
young boys who have been won to
the soldier life by the tales of heroism
which have come to them from their
older brothers.

D. MCLEAN & SONS WILL SAW PINE FIRE WOOD

AMr. b. Mclean & Sons re- ceived a wood cutting outfit last Thursday, from Vaughn Motor Works of Portland. It is a simple affair but is just the outfit for saving pine wood. It is. driven by a four horse gasoline motor and runs ain ordinary long cross cut saw.
 MT. Mclean and the boys purchased fifty cords of wood in Dog Town wash and have already started. work on this. They expect to have pine wood on the market in Williams in a short time.
 One thing about their wood, when they say a cord, they will mean full cord by measure no matter what length the wood may be cut. It has been the custom here, to call two ricks a cord. If they are cutting wood in sixteen inch length, they will give three 'ricks for a cord.

 The county had as witnesses J. D. Brown, Ed Johnson, In- spector, and Inc Lockhart. Af- ter hearing the county's side of the case, attorney Morrison for the defense asked the court to dismiss the defendants, but the court only dismissed the charge of larceny and released Lockett and Davis but held Smith and Varnell on the charge of not saving a. hide.

Prices broke sharply at the outset in

cautious. though, by increasing con-

MARKET REFLECTS
PEACE PROBLEMS
Crisis Over Fiume Contention
Encourages Short Interests
to Expand.
OTHER ISSUES AID BEARS

! NEW YORK, April 26.-The stock
market this week witnessed higher
and broader wave of speculative en-
thusiasm, frequently tempered how
i, ever by heavy selling which left its
impress on more than a quarter of
the active list.
Price movements reflected in greater
course of the peace conference. the
crisis precipitated by the Fiume
problem. encouraging expansion of an
already large and aggressive short
interest.
Developments at home also were
helpful to the bear element. notably
the further deadlock in the steel and
copper trades and the approaching
quarterly meeting of the United States
Steel directors which is expected to
define the dividend policy of that cor
poration for the current year.
MANY Gains Registered.
In general however. many substan-
ttaI gains were registered. but mainly
to the sudden prominence of minor
rails. which. as group, contributed
extensively to the largest total of any
week of the year.
Accumulation of these long dormant
issues at gross advances of three to
almost fifteen points seemed to have
it's genesis in something more than
speculative potentialities according to
common report. Especial strength
was displayed by carriers which bear
some relation to the oil industry.
Foreign trade. this ceuntry's part in
the Old worlds reconstruction. the
victory loan and labor conditions
comprehended the other important
elements around which the markets
revolved.
Looking Forward to Peace Pact.
Signing of the peace pact is ex
pected' to solve some of the problems
dealing with European credits. Little
doubt is entertained Of the successful
fiotation OF the victory offering. but
leaders of industry are said to be less
sanguine regarding labor's attitude
toward prospective revision Of wage
schedules.
Despite the heavy trading of the
week. clearing house banks reported
another moderate coRtraction of
