New York, March 1.-THE price

the same time, was on the increase.
Following the advance in gasoline
prices announced on previous days
by Standard Oil subsidiaries in the
middle west and today's 25-cent-a-

stocks were taken in hand. Stan

Indiana, Pipe Line, and Standard

exceptionally favorable results OBJ

Judson company, its subsidiary.
Standard Oil of Indiana moved
along with the rest for a while but
later ran into heavy profit taking.
Salt Creek Producers was steady.
Merritt Oil made new high on the
report of a new well in the Big
Muddy field. This well had been
brought in at great depth and has
proved up additional territory.
Maracaibo rose at the start but lat
er it too felt the effect of profit
taking. Seaboard at one time was
up nearly points.
Postum Cereal attracted atten-
ton among miscellaneous issues
and at one time made a new high.
Amalgamated Leather was strong in
the forenoon but fell back in the

DruGoods Market

Copyright. ly-2.J

New York, March 1.-THE dry
gods market was without impetus
today. Dizziness still was in. evil
dence and trading was in small lots
with prices showing 4 softer ten
dency although there was little
change in quotations. Some second
hands were reported to be shading
prices in broad print cloth con-
structions. Sheetings were fairly
steady and there was some interest
in drills and paiama checks. The
business in fine goods was confined
to odd lots.
The raw silk market was fairly
firm in conformity with Yokohoma
but buyers still seem to be holding
off in the hope of lower prices. The
demand for finished goods is better
with ribbons showing with crepes
in favor.
WOOL.
Boston, March 17.-Trading in
wool was slow and dull today.
Prices reflected the strength in Lon
don and Brisbane and were firm.
Worsted manufacturers continued
to talk of curtailment of production
but the figures showing the heavy
wool consumption in 1921 totaling
672, 724 900 pounds was a strength
ening factor. Although little con-
tracing has been done in the far
northwest, reports indicate that the
clip will be heavy in those sections.
Shearing is making more progress
in Arizona and some new WOOL is
being shipped.

Susie, the mother cat who adopt ID
two infant rats as a part of her
family, has only the step-children
to care for. Susie brought the
rats out of their cupboard home this
morning, bathed them carefully
and gave them a romp.
A neighbours cat, who is Thought
to be the father, called and seemed
worried. He was driven away by
Jack Crawford, in whose black
smith shop Susie makes her home,
as he was about to make a Iunge
for the infant rodents. The black
smith says the rats deprived the
kittens of their nourishment,
which caused their death.

Money SUPPLY

BY STUART p. WEST.


wall Street, New York, March II.
Nothing in the financial situation
.oday was of as much Importance
a. the continued buoyancy Of the
security markets. Here lay the
dearest expression of Judgment re-
rarding the general business out
look. Recovery went further in
the foreign exchange. with sterling
nearly 10 cents in the pound above
ms extreme low of Tuesday. This
movement was highly important,
TOO. as settling whatever misgiv-
ings were felt that the February
rise was speculative and unlikely
10 last. The wheat market likewise
gave evidence that IL had reached
The bottom of it's reaction when on
Wednesday it showed a loss of
over 20 cents in the bushel from
the seasons high.
More testimony was given as to
the superabundance of the money
supply and the increasing difficulty
in obtaining profitable employment
for bank funds. The call loan u
newal was dropped to ga per cent,
which was the previous minimum
Of the year in January and the low
est level which the Wall Street
market has seen in nearly four
years. Even this concession did
not sufficiently measure the extent
to which money conditions now
favor the borrowers, for outside
the stock exchange call loans were
family made at 21a per cent.
Inevitably these money develop
ments were having the effect of
diverting into the bond market and
into the higher ranges of the stock
market a great deal of capital that
would have ordinarily ben occu-
pied in loans in security collateral.
The attractiveness of the invest
ment market as source of en-
ployment increased as that of the
loan market diminished Great &C
tivity, with generally rising prices,
market the bond trading of the day.
In stocks it was perhaps the broad
est market yet seen this year in re-
spect to the number of individual
stocks which at one stage or an
other figured in the buying move
ment Scarcely a group in the in
dustrial quarter escaped attention,
and whereas yesterday all the rails
been neglected, today many of these
stocks went ahead.
With the passing of the dividend
on Crucible Steel common and the
publication of the Vanadium re-
port showing deficit of nearly
$5O0,O0O the bad news" from a
speculative point of view, was out
OF the way of the steel stocks.
When it was found that Crucible
Steel remained Indifferent to the
dividend action it became the log
ical thing to bid up the steel shares.
Steel common made a new high
record. Independent Steel stocks
we're equally strong. The sugars
we're quick to respond to another
advance in refined sugar prices an
questionable proof that the turn
which came in the sugar trade at
the beginning of 1922 was a real
turn. Somea of the coppers also
got into new high ground, while
the motors, the motor accessory

the feathers and the equipment all
came in for their share.
Many specialtieS bettered their
previous highs for 1922. In their
case the operations of speculative
pools were effective. Influenced at

A WORTHY RECORD

II is a historical fact that the peo-
pie in a democracy seldom appreci-
ate good public service. Il is, as
historians have long noted, the bane
OF democracy.
II is this human weakness OF the
public that often deprives II OF tho
service OF men who have the spirit
OF public service at heart; who are
willing TO give OF their time. and
their effort to promote the public
good.
II should not be necessary TO re-
call to the minds OF Malheur county
voters the good work that p. ].
Gallagher, for example, has done for
this section. lie has been n cap
able representative. The Oregon
Voter, and Il can not be said TO be
prejudieed in his favor. in It's last
Issue lauded his record, named him
one OF the constructive leaders. the
most effective debater in the House.
hhh bAh'lN NAn' hpPAbN'A hAn A'NoiAs
To name but few OF the things
which Mr.. Gallagher has accom-
plished should serve TO remind the
people OF the efficient manner In
which they have been represented:
He secured the passage OF the law
guaranteeing interest on irrigation
and drainage projects. and we ask
where would some OF our irrigation
and drainage districts be now with
out this law2
He secured the amendment OF the
bounty law saving the county thous-
ands OF dollars.
He secured a state appropriation
OF $1,000 to aid the owyhee Project
and secured too. the Governments
cooperation so that that project is
now ready for advancement when
funds are available.
He secured additional appropri-
ations for the Malheur county fair.
He has been one of the most ef-
fcotive leaders In the campaign for
better roads and united with others
no has secured the expenditure OF
more than a million dollars in this
county for good roads. Il
Compared With this record, and
IL is but a part. we believe that no
legislator from Eastern Oregon In
recent years. can equal IL. Why then
should there be an effort made to re-
pudiate that record by nominating
another? Is It not the part of wis
dom to say naught of fairness TO re-
oognize the man who has done this
constructive work? We believe 1t
is and that Mr., Gallagher should be
renominated.
