Potato Shippers Unable to Sell
at Bay City.
BUYERS ARE HOLDING OFF
I'lrst Shipment Since California
Fhmd Iteaclies) the San Fran
cisco Market Steady Decline
In Kggs Is Expected.
The first shipment of Oregon potatoes to
reach the San Francisco market since tha
recent flood, which was expected to put
prices on a filgh level, la atlll awaiting
buyers, at least advices to tha ahtppara yes
terday morning wero that tha potatoea
wano atlll unsold. There wara four cara of
fancy atock In tha shipment and tha ship
para asked 11.15 02. Buyers' Tlewa wera
eonalderably below theaa figures. Tha trade
twtre la anxloualy awaUIng tha outcome of
tha deal, aa the valuations fixed In tha Bay
Cltr will govern future operatlona here.
About 15 ears of Oregon potatoea are now
In transit to tha South.
Buying contlnuea In a rather small way
In tha vaUey. Fo ffar aa can ba learned
$1.35 la the top price paid for potatoea.
The oulon market la quite firm on tha
1-eent basis to growers. There Is a good
outside demand and a number of cars of
association stock have been placed this
week.
TOP FRICE9 ASKED FOR WHEAT.
Floor Very Strong, but Higher Price Are
Not Certain.
Full prices are asked for wheat by local
holders, but the amount of business passing
la not large. Oats and barley continue very
firm at last prices.
The local flour market Is strong and on
tha basis of present wheat values an ad
vance In flour quotations would seem to be
due. The possibility of Eastern flour coming
In has. however, to be reckoned with In this
connection.

HOP qlESTION IX ENGLAND.
Government Introduce Bill to Govern Ira
portat Ions.
Consul Lorln A. Lathrop, of Cardiff, for
wards tha following brief summary of the
provisions of an act Introduced la the
British House of Commons by the Chancellor
of the Exchequer. The proposed act pro
hibits hop substitutes In tha brewing of
beer, and provides for the marking of Im
ported hops. According to English news
papers this bill will meet considerable op
position, and doubt Is expressed whether
It will be enacted. Rop-growera of Kent,
however, are united In urging the passage
of the measure - and have succeeded In
arousing considerable) aympathy throughout
tha Kingdom. It la not improbable, there
fore, that thla or a similar bill may ulti
mately be placed on the statute book. Con
sul Lathrop's report follows:
Tha measure will undoubtedly he pro
tective In lta effects, and tha English hop
growers, who have had a. eontlnuoua aeries
of bad years, will bo benellted at the ex
pense of California and other non-British
rrowera Under this act a brewer la pro
hibited from using any hop aubstltuta un
er penalty of 100 (SS S3.) "Hop sub
stitutes" are defined as any bitter article,
or bitter substance, other than hops,
capable of being used tn the brewing of
bear. Including any preparation of hops,
tha use of which In brewing has not been
previously sanctioned by the commissioners
for the time being baring the management
of duties of excise.
Hops must be Imported In bags, marked
en the outside. In words and figures not less
than three Inches In length and half an
Inch In breadth, with the name of the
owner, planter or grower, lie country, and
the year In which grown, and the gross
weight. The penalty for noncompliance to
te 20 (S97.32) for each bag unmarked. Cus
toms anthorltlea are authorised to retain
unmarked hope, which shall be forfeited If
not marked by tha Importer within a ahort
specified time.
HENS HAVE RESOLED IATIXO.
rtenty of Fgga Looked For In the Near
Future.
That tha egg market will steadily de
cline from now on la evident from reports
from the country, which show that the soft,
warm weather has caused the hens to re
sume laying. There was some disposition
on the part of local handlers to hold the
roarlo-t ateady yesterday In view of the
considerable supply of California and East
ern eggs carried, but the efforts did
pot meet with much euccess and prices
were tnollned to sag. Tha general quota
tion on the street was 45 cents.
Receipts of poultry were small and the
. demand was light, but good prices are
looked for throughout the week neverthe
less. The butter market was active and steady
at the recent decline and cheese waa firm
at last prices.
Bran Prirea Advance Sharply.
The bean market Is again showing much
strength. In response to California ad
vices, prices on small white, large white and
red. made a sharp advance of S cent yes
terday. It Is reported that the floods In
the Sacramento-Pan Joaquin delta district
have considerably reduced the acreage In
beana for next season.
Three Cars of Bananaa Arrive.
Three cara of bananas, two of which wera
sjneen. arrived yesterday. A small ship
men: of truck also came In by steamer. The

COPPER PRICES RISE
Market Affected by Advance
in London Warrants.
EQUIPMENTS ALSO HIGHER
Professional Element Is Cautious in
.Risking Short Sales in View ot
fecund I'osition or Holders.
Bonds Move Steadily.
NEW YORK. Feb. 2 The stock market
today was ruled largely by technical con
siderations. The professional element was
chary of risking short sales In view of yes
terdays demonstration of the small liqui
dation Induced by the considerable decline
of last week. That decline, in fact, hod
built up' a short interest of considerable
proportions, and the room traders found
a fulcrum in the necessities of these un
covered shorts for lifting prices.
Some importance was attached to a
sharp advance In the price of copper war
rants In the London market, the first that
has occurred In many days, during which
the price of the metal went intermittently
downward. Copper mine shares abroad felt
the advantage of this showing, and the ef
fect was reflected here, although news waa
lacking to show any vital change In the
situation in the copper Industry, In which
no demand has yet developed sufficiently to
absorb supplies at the rate of output from
the mines.
Railway earnings reported for December,
19oS, show an Increase in expenditures over
the same month, of the preceding year.
The item of operating expenses of rail
roads In December of 1M07 was maintained
above the 1006 level to the proportion of
nearly 3 per cent. The December excess
over that level, when it occurs, must be
regarded, therefore, aa ehouflng a more
generous allowance for maintenance. A
Doiicv of something like starvation of these
expenditures Is known to have been adopted'
by the railroad, world during me penou
of greatest depression. Whether the pres
ent change In policy Is of necessity from
the long postponement of proper outlay,
or whether it marks a growth of greater
confidence in future earnings, the effect
is good on the demand for equipment and
material. Some of the firmness of stocks of
railroad equipment Industrials may ' be
traceable to this cause.
Bonds were steady Total sales, par
value, .$3.904. "00. United States bonds were

TONE BEARISH ' ALL DAY
Large Increase In World's Visible
Supply Is Chief Weakening Fac
tor Traders Shift From
May to July.
CHICAGO. Feb. t. There was a reversal
of local trade condition In the wheat pit
today from the bull market of the prev
ious session, sentiment In the pit being
bearish throughout the entire day. The
course of the market was largely shaped
by the leading bulls who sold quite freely
from start to finish. The fact that the
short interest was eliminated to a great
extent by yesterday's bulge helped to
weaken the market. A noticeable feature
of today's proceedings waa the shifting over
from the May delivery to the July option,
owing to tbo congested condition of the
former delivery. The chief weakening fac
tor waa Bradstreet's statement of the
world's visible supply which showed an In
crease of 4,800.000 bushels for the week.
There was a mild show of firmness at the
opening, due to the strength of foreign
wheat markets, but this was soon dissipated.
The market closed weak and only a trifle
above the lowest point of the day, with
May at 1.0S and July 798c.
The corn market developed considerable
weakness on the expectation of Increased re
ceipts of corn from the interior. The slump
In wheat also had a deprtfjsmg effect. The
market closed weak with prices down &
c compared with the prevloua close.
Final quotations on May were at 63
63 c and on July at 63 c.
Oats exhibited a weak tone during the
entire session. The market closed weak
with prices down o to c with May
at 61c and July at 46c.
Provisions. were weak on general liquida
tion, the local packers being among the
chief sellers. At the closo prices were 7c
to 15c lover.

SUNDAY LAW AGITATION
AVriter Denounces It as Intolerant
and Unconstltutlontl.
MOUNT TABOR. Or., Feb. 2. (To the
Editor.) The friends of Sunday legislation,
from their point of view, doubtless see
something very desirable -In such laws; but
evidently only a minority of the citixens
want such legislation. Such laws are gen
erally obtained through the Influence of a
minority. From the days of Constantlne,
such enactments have been the vogue. They
are among the things which- have come
down to ua from the dark ages: and the
human mind is o accustomed to running
in that channel that, to some, lt seems al
most sacrilegious to question the wisdom of
that kind of legislation, with the dawn of
the Reformation, legislation enforcing re
ligious duties began to be questioned. As

of civil government developed In the minds
of men. opposition to religious legislation
strengthened. It became more and more
evident that such laws savored of intoler
ance and even persecution. Severe and
prolonged persecution has never been known
to prevail except where such laws were
enforced. History shows that religious leg
islation and persecution go hand in hand.
The Blair Sunday bill, now before Con
gress, should lt become a law, will be a
violation of our Constitutional principles,
and tho way once opened for religious leg
islation. Influences from the same jurce
will continue for further legislation of the
same nature, until we shall have such col
lusion between church and state that the
church will dominate the exercise of au
thority by the civil power, and in that
manner become the arbiter tn religious
matters, as was the case in past times and
our religious liberties will become restricted.
The liberty to worship God according to
the dictates of one's own conscience will
be greatly abridged,- or at an end.
Most of the statea in the Vl..e";
acted Sunday laws. They have done this
in violation of our Constitutional rights as
given to this Nation by the adoption of Its
Constitution. ,
The church Is at least strong enough to
bold a balance of power politically. When
we consider tha religious influences now at
work among all the leading sects of j Christ
endom, turning their power in this direction,
together with the growing disposition of
legislators to yield to such Influences to
rain nolltlcal preferment, we can easily see
which waV things religious and civil are
drifting Our religious liberties are endan
gered. There Is but one way to avert . such
In :ssue: and that Is for our legislators to
Strictly adhere to the benign PiP'e. of
religious liberty secured to- ua by the wls
Som of our forefathers, and refuse all eg
islatlon calculated to compromise our Con
titutional liberties. ,
The writer Is a Arm believer In the

is the Christian's statute book. Its a.w. are

WILL FORM ASSOCIATION AXD
MEET IN" PORTLAND.
About 7 00 Members Will Be Enlist
ed In Movement In Behair of
Better Roads.
The organization of threshermen, of Ore
gon has been started and lt Is expeoted
to form a strong association of owners
of threshing machinery and others direct
ly Interested. It is expected to get about
700 members in all parts of the state, and
a convention is planned to be held In
Portland in May. -when steps -will be
taken to promote the interests of mem
bers. Phillip S. Bates, editor of the Pacific
Northwest, has taken up the matter of
organizing the threshermen. He held a
meeting last Saturday at Albany, organ
izing Linn County. Next Saturday a meet
ing will be held at Oregon City to form
an association In Clackamas County, and
some county seat of the state will be
visited on each succeeding Saturday until
all parts of the state shall be organized.
"There is capital aggregating about
43 000 000 invested in threshing machinery
in this state," said Mr. Bates. "Every
other industry of equal importance on tha
farm is organized. Dairymen, fruitmen,
cattlemen and poultry-growers have asso
ciations, and threshermen should also
unite to look after their Interests. I be
lieve this movement will accomplish much
good for those engaged in the industry.
At the convention to be held here in May,
we expect to have three men of National
fame to address the gathering.
"The machinery end of the industry is
big. Despite the falling off in wheat
growing in the Willamette Valley, the
business of threshing clover for its seed
has Increased, and this industry is con
stantly gaowing. One great trouble the
threshermen have to contend with Is the
