OVR OPIOKTlNlTY.
Consul Wilbur T. Gracey at Tslng
tau. reports as follows regarding the
opportunity for the sale of butter and
chcenc In China:
It Is only a few years since butter
was unknown to tho Chinese, when
It wob never lined, and when even the
milk from the cows could not be pur
chased, but recently Chinese restaur
ants have taken to the serving of
"European style dinners," and the
better cIohs of Chinese are becoming
large consumers of butter nnd other
European luxuries. In the ports
where fresh butter Is obtainable this
Is given the preference, but In th In
terior Chinese cities tinned goods are
being largely used. The French but
ters command much the largest sale
In the Interior, the brands ure well
known and It Is difficult In China to
replace brands which have been long
used. Tho only possible way of dis
placing known goods Is by a thor
oughly conscientious and complete
campalKn of personal representation.
Cheese Is only Imported In China
for the use of the European residents.
It does not lis yet appeal to the pecu
liar palate of tho Chinese nice, but
during the past four years the value
Of the butler Importation has Increas
ed over 00 per cent.
Undoubtedly much of (he butter
trade could bo again secured by ex
porters In the United States, especial
ly on the Pacific coast, making ar
rangements with the shipping com
panies to bring out their goods In
cold storage, and have "their agents In
Shanghai or Hongkang make similar
arrangements with the local shipping i
companies by shipping In cold stor
age. The Australian, French and
Danish butters now obtainable on this
market are certainly superior to any
American product thut can be pur
chased, . The following prices are given by a
local merchant: First quality table
butter, 1 pound tin, Jl: 2 pound tin,
$1.90. First quality cooking butter,
70 cents per pound; second quality, at
(0 cents, or 4 pound tin, $1.85, all
quotations being In Mexican curren

AMERICAN APPLES IX NORWAY.
Consul General Henry Pordewlch of
ChrUllanla, states that American drld
and evaporated apple products, are
freely used In Norway. The total an
nual Import of dried apples" exceeds
1,100.000 pounds, of which 150,000
pounds come from the United States
direct, but a much larger part of the
Import Is also American product seld
to Norway by German Jobbers, but is
; credited as Imports from Germany
The Import duty on drl.d sad evjip
orated apple, I, 8 j cents per pound,
Politicians will awatt with Interest
the battle that la being waged by the
Oregon delegation over the senate
confirmation of ChrlHtlan Schuebel as
United States district attorney of Ore
gon. It seems to be the balance of
the Oregon delegation against Sena
tor Bourne. From thla distance It
looks like Bourne will lose out. ' It
does not seem possible for Oregon to
have a united delegation on anything,
However. If their differences are sim
ply confined to the appointments, that
Is not so serious, as a division on other
matters. There are scores of com
petent men to fill the few offices that
are In the hands of the delegation to
fill, and as far as the great masses of
the people are concerned, It matters
very little which one draws the salary,
Some of our citizens are getting
things mixed on registration, from the
fact that both city and county regis
tratlon books are for the present time
open. Voters should register twice, at
the office of the city recorder to vote
at the city election which tukos place
on March 9; at the county clerk's of
fice today and tomorrow the books
will be found In the rear office of
the Farmers & Traders' National
bank for the primaries, the June
state election and the presidential
election In November. Some are of
the opinion that one registration Is
sufficient for boththis Is erroneous.
You must register for city election
and you must register for the county
and state and presidential election.
Two registrations being required.
While, everything considered, those
who are In authority and are In close
touch with our public school, are
unanimous In saying that this has
been the most successful year In our
history. Everything Is going along so
smooth and the students as a whole
are doing most excellent work. While
this Is true, there Is going to be a de
mand made on the school board to
provide for the Introduction of music,
that Is, vocal singing, tho same that
is In universal nso In all of the very
best large schools, and there Is a
strong sentiment for It being adopted
In our schools here. Some of .the
rooms, we understand, do, but It
not general.
