Heavier Butter Offerings Noted ; Over Northwest PORTLAND, Apr. 27 W Greatly Increased offerings of butter are re flected throughout the Pacific north west sector as a result of general betterment In weather conditions. While some sections report a Bhortage, others reflect sufficient Increase to more than overcome this. As yet there are practically no price changes reported in the market for butter either on the open trade or on the exchange. Increased storage vol ume Is suggested at practically all ccast points except Portland.

(Special) Con siderably less interest Is being mani fested In the hog industry of tthls community than has been tho case In tho past number of years. From reports from a good many of the farmers it seems quite likely that the number of hogs grown here this season will be nowhere near as large as for last year. The past spring appears to have been a very unfavor able ono with many for good success In saving tho spring pig litters. Many of the sows which were held over for farrowing this spring brought pigs during the cold stormy weather of March and many were lost from various causes. At some of the farms fairly large numbers of late summer and fall pigs were taken through the winter because of tho fact that, there was practically no sale for, them ,ln tne falI 111 some cases many of these ' wer IOS' aunng ino winter montns.

Grover Crews percussionist, Is rated as the finest musician on these Instruments in tho state. Mr, Crews formerly played bass drum In the United StateB mar ine band and Is an expert tympantst. P. L. - Robinson, solo trombonist, was formerly a member of the coast artillery band and at one time was a member of the Rosarlan, Elks, firemen's, policemen's and Shrine bands of Portland. During the war he was first sergeant and solo trom bonist with the crack 43rd Infantry band. He has -had considerable ex perience In theatre and symphony orchestra, and rates easily as one of the outstanding trombonists of the northwest. A successful teacher of the clari net Is Roy Mattoon, solo clarinet with the band. A pupil of Henri Leroy, solo clarinest with the Carde de Republican band of Paris, during the war, Mattoon was soloist with tho 162nd Infantry band. He also has had wide experience In orchestras and bands. L. J.

By holding an afternoon session; some thing not previously done, Judgo Charles S. Davis hoped to be able to give tho cose to the Jury by the end of the day. Joseph Kahahawal Sr., and Mrs. Esther Anlto, father and mother of the slain native, occupied front seats. Courtroom Silent ' A hush fell over the courtroom as Darrow began. He pictured Lieuten ant Massie eight months ago as a strong, healthy, respected young man with a wife beautiful, admired and respected. Then he pictured the Im mediate scene, with' Massie In court and the prosecution demanding ho be sent to prison for. life for shooting Kahahawal after the native supposed ly confessed attacking Mrs. Massie. i "How much had they (Mr. and Mrs. Massie) .to. do with It all?", Darrow asked. .... ,. . ;". .Y . . '. ''I want to call your attention.", he went on, ,"to whether there was a reason over which they had no con trol Masai e-'s mind. I listened to, Dr. Cotton (prosecution alienist) spin ning his story in his own mind like m spider, for -what he could get out, of It.' .-,-.' .s,;.v.,i.'y . v . ; Considers Sanity Issue - " -After desert Bfng tho dance tho night of September 12 immediately after which Mrs. Massie was attacked, Darrow sought to bolster the defense contention that Massie was insane at the moment of , the filling,. - u "We contend' , ho said, , "that for months Mossle's mind was affected by all that was borne upon him grief, sorrow, trouble, day after day, week after week and month after month. ' 'What do you think would have happened to any one of you un the same circumstances? We Judge other people by ourselves." As Darrow told of the beating and assaulting of Mrs. Massie she began to weep. She didn't have anything to do with It," he said. "But you can't find a more cruel experience In all literature." The defense attorney then dwelt upon the ordeal of Massie and his wife after tho attack and the effect upon Mrs. Fortescue. You would think from the efforts of these counsels," sold Darrow, "that sha had done something, or they had done something.' Darrow seemed to forget his 75 years as he pounded the roll of the Jury box with vigor.

Smith's victory came after one of the most bitterly fought campaigns in the history of Massachusetts. A feud of several years standing be tween Mayor Curley and the regular Democratic state organization, as !personfied by Gov. .Ely and Frank 1 J5 Donahue, state chairman, who named the Smith slate, cast a shadow I over the campaign that at times al : mcit hid the real Issue Smith or Roosevelt. Tho defeat came as a severe blow i to the Roosevelt adherents. Mayor ' Curley and James Roosevelt, son of Gov. Roosevelt and also a candidate for delegate at large, had hoped to I get at least a few places on the at- large ticket and several district dele I gates. Although a newcomer to 1 Massachusetts politics, James Roose i velt ran neck and neck with Mayor j Curley at the head of the Roosevelt slate.

Fitzgerald of Boston, had 144,508 for third place and William 1 J. Foley,, district attorney of Suffolk county, ran fourth with 143,060. The highest Roosevelt vote, that given James Roosevelt, was 56,480. Mayor Curley received 66,454 votes i with the totals for the remainder of the Roosevelt slate running as low ! as 44,597. I The 12 delegates -at -large have a half a vote each in the convention i whereas the district delegates have ( a full vote each. The Repubftcan I delegates have a full vote each. 1 The Republican at large slate , which was chosen wtlhout opposi tion consisted of former U. 8. Sen ator William M.
