Tbe egg market was higher todav with the receipts smaller aud tbe demand larger. This condition has existed dur ing the past few days, but do advance was made iu the market until today, when quotations went up u per dozen. POULTRY RECEIPTS ARE NOT HEAVY. The receipts in poultry today were no larger than the deinuud and the market assumed a better tone. At the present quotation tbe demand is better. Old hens are not wanted very badly but large spr ngs will find a welcome sale. BEST VEAL IS IN GOOD DEMAND. In the veal market tbe receipts are still quits larye, but the demand for the better grade is uood and tbe usual prices are easily obtained. Tbe poor arrivals are in bad shape as far as tbe demand and price is concerted. OUTSIDE BERRIES SELL LOWER. The strawberries which came from up the valley are arriving in poor Bhape and on this class of goods as low as 2c per pound is being received by tbe dealers For Mount Tabor and Hood Rfver ber ries tbe demand is better on account of the better condition in which the fruit arrives. Good berries sold todaj from 4c to 5c per pound. Receipts are still very large. CHEAP FRUIT IS PLENTIFUL Cheap strawberries are very plentiful ana the hawkers are doing a large busi ness selling them to the housewives for canning purposes. The Holmes cannery, corner East Eigth and Divisionsstreets, will very likely resume operations to morrow, the first business being done in strawberries. With tbe opening of the canning season the large surpluB will be taken on tbe market and steadier price; are expected to rale. DRESSED HOGS SLIGHTLY FIRMER. DreBBed hogs are showing a stronger tone on account of the small receipts Tbe cool nights are probably the most important factor in the market. Mutton and lambs are not coming very fast, but tbe market is not in need of them. POTATO MARKET BTILL IMPROVING, The potato market is still showing signs of improvement and although there have as yet boeu no advances in the quotations some are expected if tbe re ceipts do not crowd too bard. New do tatoes from California continue in larger gupply, bat tbe price ib still rather high PROVISION MARKET REMAINS DULL. The local provision market remains in a dull Btate and very little business is being transacted. The prices are now so low that packers are of the opinion that tbe next move in the lists will be upward, ine slight improvement in bogs will cause this. Astoria & Columbia River Railroad Co.

Tbe order in other ways and on many occasions also has shown evidence of its patriotic tenden cies, it is because 01 this feature U tne society, that the Oregon Woodmen last year took up tbe matter of aeking all citizens to observe "FJatr Day." Their efforts were crowned with considerable success and they hope that this yea' the Hte will be generally observed by all citizens of Oregon. June 14th is Flag Day. This is the day that was set apart by act of congress in commemoration of the day upon which tbe stars and stripes as formally selected as tbe emblem of the lan'1 of the free end the home of the brave." June 14th was chosen be cause it was 011 that day in the year 1777 congress accepted and approved of the design of the American flag. Flag Day is not a legal holiday and its observance wil in nowise detract from anyone s business or calling. All tbat is required is that Old Glory shall be run up on that date on every flagpole and also be dis played from all other points of advan tage, so that all that day we may be re minded of the sacred and momentous scene which was enacted on that day, 127 years ago. We earnestly trust that our citizens generally will respond to this request of the Woodmen. The proper observance of Flag Day is a noble one and is well calculated to impress our minds and touch our hearts with a re newed sense of the sufferings borne by our Revolutionary sires. We cannot be too often reminded, nor can too many ways be devised to bring back to us thoughts of the awful sacrifices made by our forefathers, nor that eternal vigi' lance is the price for our continued lib erty which they so dearly purchased Therefore let all citizens, irrespective of lodge or party affiliations, place tbe flags at the mast-heads that morning, or in other conspicuous places, for above all other things we are Americans, whose hearts beat in unison with love and ven eration for the grand old starry banner -Oregon Woodman. What Local Option Means. Galloway Elected Third Judicial Judge District. Local Option and Direct Primary Nominating Law Endorsed by people. Incidents in the Colorado War are Two Pitched Battles Be tween Miners and Militia, and the Declaration of Martial Law. There seems to be much confusion in in regard to the meaning of the local option law approved by the voters at last Monday's election. In answer to inquiries concerning its operation, the following statements are made : Immediately after being officially notified that a majority of votet cast at the recent election on the Local Option were in favor of that law, tbe Governor of the state will issue a proclamation declaring it to be part of the state laws. Then, if ten per cent of the voters of any precinct or contiguous precincts, or of a county, petition for the submission of the question of prohibition to a vote of the Deoule. it shall be to submitted, This petition must be submitted Dot less than 30, nor more than 90 days before a presidential, state or city election ; and shall be voted on at such election. If a majority vote in favor of prohibition, then it shall be illegal to engage in the sale of liauors except tbe sale of pure al cohol for scientific or manufacturing purposes, wine to church officials for sacramental purposes, or alcoholic stinv ulanta lu case of sickness.

In Multnomah county the Democrats centered all their efforts on tbe election of sheriff and district attorney, landing both, Word being elected Sheriff and Manning district attorney. GALLOWAY ELECTED. Judge William Galloway, so well known to the citizens of this county, and - so popular with them, haB been elected Judge of the third judicial district by about 700 majority. As there was a normal Republican majority to over come, the Judge is certainly entitled to congratulrtions. In his home county, Yamhill, he secured a majority of about 500, running ahead in every precinct in the county, in Tillamook, normally Republican, and the home of his oppon ent, B. L. Eddy, be came out ahead by 35 votes. KVIDKNCB OF MURDER. Many circumstances indicate that the supposed suicide of J. O. Conn, of Lake County may yet be suown to have been murder. Mr. Conn disappeared on March 4, and his dead body was found in a pasture not far from Silver Lake, on April 21. Some of the circumstances pointing to murder are : The very field where the body was found had been thoroughly searched aoon after hit disappearance ; the cloth ing found on the body, and papers found in the pocket , show no signs of having been water-soaked, although an unusual amount of rain fetl during March ; tne body was but slightly discolored, show ing that it bad not long been exposed to the weather. WAR IN COLORADO. The striking miners and the military have come into armed conflict at Victor, Colorado. In the first battle one miner was killed and fourteen captured.

On the niitht of June 8, armed men walked into the office of the Record at Victor, Colorado, ordered the workmen to throw up their bands, and proceeded to demolish the plant. Two linotypes and several job presses were destroyed. After they had completed their work of ruin, they marched the Record force out into the street and told them to leave town. The Record has been known as the organ of the western federation 01 Miners. THE WAR IN TUB EAST. News in regard to the war in the East are very indefinite. It is reported from St Petersburg that a determined attack on Port Arthur was repulsed with severe loss to the Japanese. It is also reported tbat the Vladivostok squadron has reached Port Arthur and sunk four Japanese ships in a naval engagement. I TRAIN ROBBERY.
