ORE.
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. But
terfot values are generally steady and
practically uniform. -
Markot for eggs Is reflecting a gen
erally steady tone locally with no
change suggested In either buying or
selling values. There aro smaller sup
plies now reaching the markot.
General lack of change Is showing
in the markot tor lira poultry hero.
Consumption Is relatively liberal and
especially so In the lower priced
brackets. Heavy stuff loss plentiful.
Increased local consumption of
cheese Is reflected In late trading help
for home manufacture. Low prices
have stimulated domand according to
both wholesalers and retailers.
General lowering of California
strawberry prices here Is shown for
the day, the result chiefly of liberally
Increased offerings. Four cars were re
ported In from Central California.
Bales mostly 2.00a.2S crate for 20s.
Extreme shortage of garlic and prac
tically a famine of quality stock Is
confronting the local trade. Prices
are nominally sensationally higher as
a result. i : I : 'I
General cutting of asparagus prices
hero has resulted from liberally In
creased offerings. Sales are showing a
fairly wide spread with the top at
42.25 pyramid of 2 54 doz. while some
sales aro down to 2. Konnewlck 12a
weak at 75c or less. A carload Is
scheduled to roll east from Tho Dalles
tonight. ,, . - . ... II!
Corner of old crop onions" held by
a local brokor, Is still holding horo
but sales at the extreme prices asked
have practically ceased because now
crop Bermuda typo aro cheaper. This
Is most unusual.
. Notes of wholesale trading:
Country killed lambs are dragging
somewhat and especially tho poor
stuff.
' Dressed hogs and veal aro practical
ly unchanged In price.
.. Southorrf yams aro finding more
favor since California sweets dis
appeared. Florida grapefruit Is firmer; up 25o
caso generally,
Radish market Is oversupplled and
growers have quit pulling.
Furthor weakness Is showing for
California lettuco.
New potatoes are held firm with
stocks very short; old stock dull..

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

La Grande Band
To Give Concert
In Baker Sunday
BAKER, Ore., April 27 (Special)
The .La Grande band, known and
praised throughout the state, will
give a concert directed by Andrew
Loney Jr., at the Clarick theatre
next Sunday afternoon and evening
In addition to the regular picture
program. - The American Legion,
under whose management the band
appears, reports an unusual ticket
sale, both locally and outside of
Baker. -
Although none of the La Grande
players now- rank- as professional
musicians, a few have had rather
outstanding experience. 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.

ned to talk for about three hours. 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.

appeared to have contributed to the
lightness of the vote.
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.
I , ' Senator Walsh received the highest
' total vote on the Smith slate with
153,303. Governor Ely was in second
l place' with 148,044 - Former Mayor
John F. 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.
