OVER PRODUCTION EARLIER IN YEAR BEING OVERCOME
Steel Outlook Now De pends Upon Consum-
 ing Capacity
tBy Associated Press.)

NEW YORK, July 27.-Continued strength in grain prices, persistence of ease in money and progress of the London conference shared attention Tn business and financial circles last week.
 While fluctuations in wheat and corn widened with increased speculative activity, values were well maintained New high prices were accumulated dur ing the week. A bullish crop estimate from Alberta and reports of black rust in Manitoba were sustaining factors. Foreign markets were strong.
 Cotton jumped sharply on an unex- pected bullish government crop report. The latter set the condition of July 16 at 6S.5 per cent as against expectations of about 72 per cent. The indicated crop was placed at 11,934, 900 bales, against trade expectations of 12,50O, ,00O bales.
 Not Favorable
 The rise in cotton, which amounted to nearly two cents pound, was not considered, however, a favorable de- velopment for the textile industry, al- ready embarrassed by the high cost of raw material. It was recalled that the recent census bureau figures on consumption during June showed that curtailment had brought operations in the mills down close to the low point reached in the depression of 1921.
 Money rates show practically no change with call rate on the New York Stock Exchange remaining at per cent day after day. There was no appreciable change in the tone of the market. The federal reserve bank statement showed that discounts still were falling off and that open market purchases of short term government pa per were not sufficient to keep up the level of earning assets. Meanwhile, a reserve chiefly of gold, continued to mount.
 In the best informed quarters, the deadlock that has developed at the Lon don conference over the question of the security for a German loan is an oc- casion for regret but not for surprise. The financial view of the matter is that German loan cannot be sold unless ample safeguards are provided-that investors, in other words, will be ex- acting.
 Over-prOductiOn Overcome
 Reports from domestic industry sug- gested that the effects of the burst of over-production early in the year were being overcome. In the steel trade,

COTTON JUMPS
 OVER Sl9 A BALE IN WILD TRADING
200 Point Rise Follows Publication Of Low
 Crop Estimate


 NEW'ORLEANS, La, July 27.-The past week in cotton has been period of wild fluctuations and active trading finally resulting in a net advance of 3S5 points, equivalent to little over $19 bale. The initial event of the week was the surprisingly low condition averages reported by the government based on returns of average date of June %. This condition average of 6S5 per cent of normal showed a de terioration in the condition of the crop of 2.7 points during the 21 days since the previous report of the government. Based on this lower condition a yield of Il ,934, ,000 bales was indicated as against the estimate of 12,144,O00 is sued July, 2.
 The immediate result of this lower condition than expected and smaller yield forecast, was an advance of the full limit of POO points on all active trading months within a few minutes from the time the report was received. October advanced from 24.80c, the price ruling just before the report, to 26.S0c. While there was some reaction from this sudden advance due to profit taking, the impaired crop prospect in duced such volume of speculative and trade buying that by Thursday, October had advanced to 2S.T5c, a gain of 395

points over the price ruling before the bureaus figures were issued.
 The advance started by the low condition average was accelerated later by reports of damage to the crop by drought in the western part of the belt, particularly in Texas. While a reaction on Friday, due to reported rains in Texas and Oklahoma caused a decline from the weeks high point of 179 points, that is 26.96c for October, prices rallied again on Saturday when the reported rains were not confirmed until October traded up to 28.65, or within 10 points of the high point of the week. -as..-.. -..-
 The July option ,culminated both here and in New York at noon on Friday. While the final phase of the liquidation of the last of the old crop months occasioned little stir locally and the final price was 29;O0c or less than a hundred points ever October, the month went out at 34.95c in NeW York or near the highest point reached in the life of the option.

for example, stocks in consumers hands were reported to be reduced to small proportions, with production clearly be- ing adjusted to consumption. Output was at approximately 40 per cent of capacity and new buying was perhaps 10 per cent smaller. The outlook for steel now depends on developments in the consuming industry. Consumption admittedly is low and expectations of improvement are moderate.
 Instances of poor earnings and re- duced dividend distributions came to light during the week, These were accepted as natural conseQuences of the industrial reaction that occurred in the second quarter of the year. One of the most encouraging developments of the week was the report of steady increase in employment at Detroit and other automobile centers.

r lily may truthfully be said to be
A< flower name Although effort
has been made to concoct for 1t an in
tricate genealogical history. It is best
accounted for by the pure white
flower with golden tongue, which gives
Its fragrance to the spring season.
Curiously, Lily has always been
vaguely identified with Cecilia. Since
the former was found difficult to trace,
the italian name Liliola was thought
to be one of it's progenitors. 1t was
borne by Liliola Gonzaga In 1910, but
was soon softened In Italy to Ziliola
or Cecilia.
Lily is purely English and American.
The Scotch have the form Lilias, made
popular through Lilias Ruthven in
1857. A Scottish. ballad is also spon-
sor. for Lillian, but In recent years, the
heroine of "Roswal and Lillian" who
was queen of Naples, is generally re-
ferred to as Lily, and the significance
of the flower is the accepted motive
for its use.

FINE TRIBUTE TO OUR SENIOR
SENATOR.

William Allen White, Kansas states
man and newspaper man, pays re-
markable tribute in his paper, the EN-
peroria, Kansas, Gazette, TO Senator
Borah when speaking editohally OF
Idaho's senior senator. He said:
ssThe intellectual leader of the
American congress, by reason OF his
position in the senate is w. e. Borah,
of Idaho, now entering upon his fourth
consecutive term For half dozen
years it has been evident that he had
the best brain in the senate. But his
position denied him leadership which
his attachments otherwise would have
accorded to him. Now in his full
prime and vigor Borah comes into of
fetal leadership and power with
SPLENDID mind.
tBut he has something more than a
fine brain; he has a free soul. No
party tradition will cramp Borah into
position which his Judgment con-
dennis. He will give to his party that
inestimable thing, courage. Expedien-
cy will never advise him. AS chair
man of the foreign relations committee
of the senate he will be guided not by
what has been but by what is and
should be. And America will take a
leadership in world affairs which she
dropped when we won the war and
lost the peace.
That leadership viii be Borah 3
leadership. 1t will scorn consistency
and go straight to rectitude. For he
is a big man--this Borah. In his youth
Kansas moulded him. He owes some
thing of his free spirit to the breadth
of these plains. AT least Kansas may
have pride in him. But he is so big
that all Americans may share their
pride in him. There is enough to go
around the world. He is a real per-
soma big, successful human being. =

Wear Big Plaids

Huge Patterns, Featuring
Fall Styles, Are Bril-
liantly Colored.

This seasons advance styles have
one quality in common which Illus
trates the tenacity of q mode that has
once been established, and its adapt
ability for the illustration of new
feature. That the straight-line frock
is stronger In favor than ever before
is evident, observes fashion CORE

ticularly In the models for early fall
street wear, for sports and in the new
coats. Godets bases, drapery and IN
Vulnerable variants are left to another
type Of dress, oRe for which plain ma
terials are most suitable. The tube
frock and the severely straight coat
are widely accepted and are making
possible the Introduction of the plaid
and the stripe, the conspicuous novel
ties among the fall styles.
Large plaids that developed into
wild extravagances of pattern were In
froduced late last winter, and so were
enormous stripes, but their place was
not defined and they had but brief
season But the relation OF the big
plaid and the wide stripe to the I'M
broken surface and uncurved line was
obvious, inspiring the fashion artists
to express one with the other. and
they open the season with dash and
color.
All last season, especially In the
early spring styles. the coming OF
plaids and stripes was evident. Sepa-
rate skirts In these were very chic.
and the big plaids In sports coats. the
Scotch plaids In scarfs. ties, parasols.

other smart accessories brought them
into favor. Now they are the sensa-
ton of the season. and every smart
woman will have coat frock. tunic
or gown Of more elaborate type done
In q plaid In which there Is no COM
promise as to size.
The extreme character Of the new
piaids and stripes demands the most
skillful handling and may be stiff

pattern that converts the entire. frock
into a giant checkerboard-half a
dozen blocks to one length Of the fig

less cleverly built most trying to the
woman who wears 1t. No figure. how
ever slim and graceful. will be less
than disfgured by a plaid that is not
perfectly matched and cut with an ac-
curate and appraising eye.
That success with plaids is possible
is shown in some Of the models al
ready established by some of the best
designers, both French and American.

Of which there are so many. They all
require a high degree Of skill, and
they are either delightful or atrooous,

turiere.
Cloth 10 All the Rage.
The name of Rodier is logically
linked with the new fall fashions for
cloth Is going to be all the rage, sup
planting, In degree, the satins and
crepes and all the lighter fabrics that
were so popular last season. Rodier
is an advocate of the plaid, and has
created some most important patterns
In woolens that have both dash In APP
peorance and comfort in texture.
Ia the kashas, cheyiot twills and
English materials some stunning frocks
for street or semisports wear are pre-
scented In all the new color combina-

IN this type of dress as in everything
else at the moment. and the new

gay check, and several new models in
which plain and plaid materials are
effectively combined.
One of these typifies the Idea-a
frock for a jeune file, the blouse-bod-
ice and deep panel at one side Of
brown kasha, with a plated skirt OF
brown and scarlet plaid. The long
tight sleeves which are now the best
style are trimmed with narrow bands
of the plaid just above the hand, and
a band Of the plaid finishes the collar
revers and marks the top of the side
panel with a narrow pocket flap. A
tunic model that is quite new is done
in brown wool rep. severely straight
and beltless. three-quarter length, with
long, tight sleeves, rolling Byron
collar and small cuffs of white faille.
From the throat to the belt line the
tunic is cut open, showing waistcoat
of the faille. From the waist to the
hip four or five buttons of carved
brown wood close the tunic, and be,
low that 1t opens, coatlike, over a
straight skirt of the plaid. A bias
band of the plaid edges the open front
of the waist and Is used for sepa-
rate scarf.
In a variant of this model that is
particularly engaging, the tunic of
black charmella-one Of the new au-
tumn fabrics-is slashed at each side,
from the waist to the hem, over skirt
of black and white plaid wool, which
borders with bias strip the Trolling
collar and two little pocket openings
at one side. These tunics are exceed
coatlike, always three-quarter or sew
en-eighths length, and unbelted, and
they are taking well because they are
less trying than the all-plaid frock.
Bordered Frocks Are Smart.
Bordered frocks are going to be
very smart. Some Of the most impor-
tant Paris houses have established
distinctive styles in frocks In which
the use of plaids. checks and stripes
Is varied by introducing them as
part of the dress-a border, trimming
or some unique detail.
Premet does this with conspicuous
success In youthful models, one of
which is built of beige kasha cloth,
the skirt bordered above the hem with
stripes of brown and laid In a cluster
of narrow plaits at one side of the
front. The blouse and plain skirt are
Joined with seam, and narrow belt
of brown patent leather Is worn. A
small scarf Of the beige goods Dor
dered with brown is attached to one
side of the shallow, square, collarless
neck.
A sports frock that is smart and
snowy is made Of Rodier material
named lies paveo poplavella." one of
the new weaves, thick diagonal In
dark blue, with knee-depth border of
large plaid in blue and gray about the
bottom of the skirt and forming the
separate scarf. Paquin is another of
the well-known designers who go in
for plaids, using them in subtle and
stylish combinations with plain colors.
Cheruit and Doucet are featuring
stripes expressing their styles In some
Fery handsome gowns and wraps.
Whether the plaids and striped ma
.erials will last is question that Is
asked. 1t would seem to depend large
y upon the art with which they are
and executed. For the more
PRACTICAL garments they seem to be
ogical and suitable, especially In
ports coats.

Final Canvass of State Vote Shows G..
0. P. Majorities Range Prom
1850 to 74,5as.

| Idaho is a state of distances and in
accessible places. Therefore, it took
from Nov. 4th to Nov. 25th to gather
in the vote on state Officers and MAKE
| it available for action by the state
canvassing boad. AS late as last Sat
urday four counties, out of the "A
were still delinquent in making theii
official election report. Furthermore
Idaho is Republican state. Emphat-
ically so. And any time the Demo
Gratis and Progressives and all the rest
of the ives and lists think they can
carry Idaho just let them look over
the returns of the general election in
1924.
They show Governor G. G. Moore,
candidate for reelection, was elected
by plurality of 7,341 over H. F. Sam
uels, progressive, and A. L. Freehafer,
democrat. Due to the fact that the
gubernatorial contest was the center
of prediction activities, greater inter
est centered on that outcome than for
other officers. Governor Moore re-
ceived total of 65,l67 while Samuels
vote was 5S,167 and Freehafer 25,08l.
The progressive vote, as reflected in
the vote cast for Samuels, was approx
imately $4,000 greater thar the vote
two years ago.
United States Senator w. E. Bor-
IS majority was smashing one,
greater than has been estimated. He
defeated his democratic opponent,
Frank Martin, by 1853, which was a
greater vote than either Coolidge or
Gov. Moore received. However, there
were but two candidates for senator
while there were three candidates for
president and four for governor.
President Coolidge carried the state
over his two leading opponents, SEN
ator La Toilette, progressive, and John
w. Davis, democrat, by plurality of
Is, 800. His total vote was 69,71l,
that of LaFollette 53,S91 and that of
Davis was less than the vote for Free
