Portand Market Letter February 18, 1318 Conditions in the market at the jNorth Portlund yurds have not been So steady duriiifr the past week as they have been in the previous week. There have been spots where some classes have advanced and others where they have slipped back n little. In the previous week the mnrXel showed a continuous accumulation of strength right up to the end of the week, but the opposite condition has prevailed in the cattle and hog sections this week, in which the mnrket at the CloBe shows some signs of slowing up. The top steer price continued firm, but medium stuff which showed a very active phase at the week's open- inj market has suffered a corresDond in(? decline at the close of the week and buyers are not so keen for this class. Stockcrs and feeders continue .steady with an excellent demand. The hog nlleys have shown a de crease in both price nnd activity just about corresponding to that shown in the cattle department. The top on Monday, with some excellent quality, In the alleys was $17.25. The latter .part of the week has shown very lit tle quality with a top of $17. It would be very difficult for any one to pre dict at the present time what next week's developments will bring forth. General conditions would not warrant any permanent break in prices, and yet irom the consumers viewpoint and from the viewpoint of the finished product, prices seem to he near ths top. Conditions in the sheep department' throughout the week have continued I just steady with spasmodic turns on' the supply end. i General prices quoted are as' fol- : lows. CATTLE Medium to choice steers, S 10.35(3) 11. 50; good to medium steers, $9.3y(B10.35; common to good steers. $8f! 10; choice cows and heifers, $S(fJ 9.50; common to good cows and heif ers, $li.758.15; canners, $4.25fifi.: bulls, $.r;8; calves, $7.50 1 1 ; stock ers and feeders, $0.509..r)0.

We must not delude otnr,elvos in to any false hopes of an early peace. As well coddle a rattlesnake as to talk peace with Germany lineon querod. Like Julius Cuc.'-.ar wo must never allow ourselves to underesti mate the power of the onmny. There can be no security for Democracy until the power o Germany Ik com pletely shattered and Autocracy lies prostrate beneath Its annulling ruins. In these solemn nnd momentous days when the very existence or free Instituions is at stake, every Amer ican must feel thnt love of ease, love of woman, love of comfort, love of home, friends even the love of life Itself Is as nothing compared to this call to service this supreme opportunity offered every man to justify himself before his own soul. "Though I.ove repine and Reason chafe, Tluvo come. a Voice without reply; TIs man's perdition to bo sufo When for the Truth he ought to die." I'cnsonul Interests are nothing when wolghed in tho scalo ngainst our own manhood. We must fight because wo have the hearts of free men, and because,' if we fall, we will know ourselves to ho forever shamed. As Americans, we must not only do our "hit" but our ut most; we muse lay upon the altar of self-sacrifice "the last, full meas ure of devotion." To refuse to do j othorwlr.o would be to' repudiate I every obligation' of manhood; anil iiiuke (nil-selves upostnteH to a cause I as nohlo ut that from which Vteno ;dlet Arnold fell. .

Dear Sir: I get the Evening Observer regu larly, and while I find very little time for newspaper reading I always take time to read the local news from La Grande, and it has given me genuine pleasure to note the generous manner In which tho poo pie or tho city alid county have re sponded to the calls of the govern ment. The loynlty of the people of old Union County la worthy of the best traditions of American citizenship. It is my opinion that Germany Is far from being beaten. The impend ing struggle will eclipse In ferosity and bitternecs anything that has yet transpired. The enemy knows that he Iia3 his hack to the vall; that he must win now or :ever. He will fight with all tho fremded delirium of despair. And a madman, as ev eryone knows, has more brute SELLS DOLLS TO AID SERBIANS We Sell for Less? Ask. Our Many Satisfied Customers.
