Th highest price paid for beet on the Pacific Northwest was paid yes terday. It vas a banner day In fat teers and the price has hit the eight cent notch, likely 4o stay for some time to come. This will make the price In La Grande seven cents on the hoof for the beat grades with a slight reduction for the inferior grades.. The recepts were not very heavy and there is a dearth of choice stock for the Portland market. There seems to be too much feed In the country and too few steers to eat It Hops Show Xe Change. The receipt of hogs was lighter than In the fore part of last week and the price remained the same. Hogs are plentiful and there is no likelihood that hogs will keep pace with cattle. Wheat Is Strong; Reports from all the markets of the world indicate that wheat will ad vance in price. "London and Paris have been buying at one and two cents higher than yesterday, and the shipments from American porta are lincreaalng. rtortland shipped over 50,000 bushels to the London mar ket. This will not Immediately affect the home market but the advance seems to be of a nature that will make flour higher everywhere. Fralt Advancing.
