Tho-r of lift Year noy
rrs Hold Off.
The first large shipment of dressed
turkeys ser received yesterday. To
day's receipts should be heavy and by
tomorrow nlsrht there will probably be
enough on hand to Indicate clearly
which way the market la going
There Is still some uncertainty a to
the outcome, but the opinion la gaining
ground that the market will be a
rather easy one. Several Idaho deals
were said to be still under considera
tion yesterday, but it was not learned
If they were dosed. If this additional
stock Is brought here. It may break the
market.
No one was able to .speak definitely
f the Valley situation, but the grow
er and shippers there are not as firm
n their Ideas as a few weeks ago. and
It Is not likely they will hold back
many turkeys that are ready to ship.
A good part of the Southern Oregon
crop a as contracted for early by Cali
fornia buyers, and consequently will
rot be a factor on the local market,
Whatever effwt this would have, how
ever. Is likely to he offset by the ab
sence of Ptiiret Sound buyers here. This
Is t.'ie first Thank.-rlvlng In many
year fiat Seattle and Taroma dealers
have not operated more or 1 exten
sively at Portland. Kfforts have been
made In the past few days to Interest
them, hut without slcees.
It Is. of course, impossible at this
time to state positively what the Job
hnf market will be. All kinds of
gutvses are marn b"V the dealers. A
fair average of their predictions seems
to he about 22H cents.
Tr-ere as very little se:llng on the
strict yeit-rday. A few good lots were
taken "at -i cent, and culls sold as
low a cents.

Strong Feature of the List.
Bonds Are Steady. .
NKW TORK. Nov. IS. Northwestern
railway stocks wera heavy today, and
those In tha Canadian group were
strong;. A few less prominent Indus
trials advanced. The main body of
speculative Issues was Inert.
The Interstate Commerce Commission
order for lower rates on freight clas
sifications In the Northwest was the
only direct new Influence on the mar
ket. It was used with effect by the
bears In attacking the stocks of the
rallronds concerned, and Northern Pa
cific, Great Northern preferred. ft. Paul,
and Northwestern were depressed a
rolnt or more. In the Canadian group.
Canadian Pacific rose Jli. Wisconsin
Central 2. and Minneapolis & St. Paul
and Srault 8te Marie a point.
American Tohacco securities led the
advance early In the day. The pre
ferred stock rose 114 and on the
"curb" the common shot up IS points.
Atchison reported earnings which
were regarded as dlrappolntlng. Gross
returns were virtually unchanged, but
operating expenses rose more than
1100.000. This added expense, combined
with a rise of about the same amount
In taxes, reduced the operating Income
by I2S2.U0O.
The bunk statement In some ways
was a surprise. A loss In rash In the
actual statement of 16,300.000 was In
line with expectation. In view of the
week's export movement of gold. Pre
dictions that the comparatively Blender
surplus reserve would be reduced to
almost the vanishing point, however,
wero not borne out. '
Honds were steady. Total sales, par
value. 11.130,000. L'nlted States twos
and threes lost on call on the week.

The excess of reserve of the New Tork

was reduced only $1.4.1(1.350, although the
Saturday statement, bssed on actual condi
tions, snowed a loss In specie and leral ten
der during- th nrevious six days of $0,344.
000. This decrease In cash was occasioned
mostly by shipments of specie to Canada
and by telexraphlc transfer to San Fran
cisco on Japanese and Chinese account.
Had It not been that loans were contracted
by S13.61O.J0O, which, with a consequent les
sening of $16,003,000 In net deposits, re
duced the required reserve by $4.2".0,(hio. the
surplus at the end of the week would have
shown a much heavier contraction. The
cleartng-house statement, based on the dally
average svstem. Indicated a contraction of
$5 Srt:t 000 in loans and a loss of about $S.
poo 000 In cash, together with a decrease of
$16,725,000 in net deposits. The excess re
prve. figured on averages, stands at $19.
543.933. , ,
The statement of trust companies, made
Independently of the clearing-house exhibit,
showed a gain of $.370.800 In loans and In
vestments, and a corresponding Increase In
deposit. ... .
The esler monetary conditions abroad
have some bearing on the situation here, for
It is plain that with the present fall in re
serves rates for money ouirht to show a
hardening tendency. The heavy American
credits In Europe, however, seem to preclude
any possibility of a sustained advance In
money on this side.
RANCHERS MAKE PROTEST
Proposed Vmatilla Project Exten
sion Is Opposed.
PENDLETON. Or.. Nov. 25. (Spe
claL) Believing their present and fu
ture interests to be In Jeopardy, ranch
ers slong- Birch and McKay creeks met
at Pilot Rock today to protest against
the proposed extension of the Umatilla
project. Resolutions were adopted
calling upon 'President Taft and Sec
retary Fisher to reject tha proposed
extension, and at a second meeting to
be held Tuesday it may be decided to
send a representative to Washington.
The proposed extension contemplates
the building of a dam across the Uma
tilla River at the mouth of Butter
Creek and Just below the towns of
Echo and Stanneld. This would make
a reservoir site out of the famous Uma
tilla Meadows wherein the noodwaters
of the river would be stored for the
reclamation of 40,000 acres of arid
lands.
The ranchers along Birch and Mc
Kay creeks, tributary streams flowing
into the Umatilla, the proposed dam
site fear the Government will use all
of the water which flows In the river
and tributary streams both Winter and
Bummer, except the 2H-acre feet which
the attorneys for the reclamation serv
ice are striving to have fixed as the
maximum amount which can be taken
from those streams for the reclama
tion of land actually under Irrigation
at the present time.
As a substitute to the present plans
for the west extension the ranchers
would have the Government bring
water from the John Day River for
the proposed project. TheyvlnsUt this
plan Is cheaper and more feasible.
CENTENNIAL FOLK SUING

Wheat Market Affected by the
Argentine Outlook.
MAY GAINS THREE-EIGHTHS
Corn Closes Lower but Steady and
Oats Are a Shade Higher Pro-
vision Weakness Checked by
Short Buying of Lard.
CHICAGO. Nov. 25. The uncertain
crop o'utlonk In Argentina turned wheat
prices today in an upward direction.
The strength of other markets was tak
en as a sign of substantially altered
conditions In' South America. Closing
figures showed Vic to c advance over
last night. Corn finished lie to
down; oats up l-16e, and hog products
unchanged to 2c below.
The May wheat option, after ranging
from $1.00 to Sl.OlVs. closed eteady at
J1.00T4, a gain of ic net.
May corn fluctuated between 64 Vic
and 645c, closing ViSjMic off but
steady at 64 Vi 0640. Cash grades
were weak; No. 2 yellow was quoted at
7S7SVic for car lots.
Top and bottom figures touched by
May oats were 49Hc and 49H9c
with last sales at 49V449c, a net
gain of a shade.
Considerable buying of lard on the
part of shorts checked weakness in the
provision list. Previously there had
been fair selling for Western packers
and a few strong local speculators. In
the end prices stood the same as last
night or at 2 He decline.

BOURNE'S RECORD IS MARK
Pendloton Candidate for Senator
Criticise Present Incumbent.
PENDLETON", Oi. Nov. 25. In a
statement addressed to the Republicans
of Oregon concerning his candidacy
for the United States Senate Judge
Stephen A. Lowell today outlined his
personal platform, severely criticised
the political record of Jonathan Bourna
and Invited the latter to meet him on
the platform in joint debate.
Judge Lowell, among other things,
declares for fortification of the Pana
ma Canal, Government Bteamshlp lines,
if private interests throttle the canal's
purposes; dissolution of the trusts, res
toration of the competition, modified
conservation and tariff revision on the
basis of cost of production at home and
abroad. He advocates banking reform.
Immigration restrictions, legislation
favorable to labor and a larger Navy
on the Pacific.
Judge Lowell questions Senator
Bourne's residence In Oregon, asserts
that his Interests are with Eastern
capitalists, refers to his erratic sup
port of policies and candidates and
charges that he was one of the chief
leaders In the "disgraceful legislative
hold-up."
Judge Lowell's five reasons why
Senator Bourne should not be returned
to the Senate follow:
First I do not regard him as a bona
fide resident of Oregon. In the last
campaign reputable speakers asserted
that he maintained no home within tha
state, and the assertion was never de
nied. He visits the state upon rare
occasions, coming as a traveler, and
stopping at the hotels of Portland. If
he has a home in Oregon, where is it,
and when was it acquired? If he Is a
taxpayer in Oregon, where are the
taxes paid, and what is the amount
thereof? The irentleman Is classed as
oue ui Uie multi-miUlanaJxea of te.
country. Whether that be true or not.
he assuredly is possessed ot vast, wcaim
subject to taxation.
Second He is apparently more close
ly identified with Massachusetts than
with Oregon. He is the head of one
of the great cotton manufacturing; con
cerns of New England, heavily pro
tected by "the .tariff laws, and said to
yield Immense revenues. Born an heir
of Jonathan Bourne. Sr. In his day one
of the leading capitalists of New Bed
ford the son has retained his inter
ests there, and under such circum
stances his economic views can hardly
square with those of the people of thfc
West.
Third I know his record at Salem as
a leader In the disgraceful legislative
hold-up. The men who engineered that
outrage should be barred from public
office, because their proceedings then
Indicated such a disregard for the law
ful conduct of affairs, that no man
responsible therefor can safely be re
lied upon in official life. If selfish
purposes were superior to the Inter
ests of the state then, what assurances
have the people that selfish interests
may not again be paramount, if occas
ion arises?
Fourth Because his kaleidlscopic po
litical changes make it difficult to de
termine his real opinions upon public,
questions. His erratic career as a pol
itician is known, while upon emenus
the Senate he allied himself with the
Aldrich wing of the party, and voted
with that group as late even as the
enactment of the present tariff law.
x-m i, oiaitn tr ha n nroeressive. but
where shall we find his Impress upon
the pages of progress, except in his
personal literature upon the Oregon
system? His history In this state is
the opposite, while insurgency in Con
gress found small comfort at his hands
until others had made the movement
popular. He Is an advertiser of re
markable cunning:. The editorial ear
of the country was caught by his spec
taqjilar declaration that he would spend
no money upon his campaign for re
election, yet what voter in Oregon Is
unfamiliar with the postal frank of the
Senator? Apparently he espoused the
Roosevelt third term Idea as a personal
advertisement, tried to pose as the golf
crony of Taft for like reason, and Is
now exploiting his new plaything, the
Progressive League, for the same pur
pose. Who. if not Mr. Bourne, is
financing that organization?
Fifth Because he has not risen to
a Just appreciation of Oregon's needs,
and has failed to grasp opportunities
to secure legitimate National aid in her
development notably manifest in the
matter of distribution of Irrigation
funds. And because he seems not to
appreciate the graver questions of
state, but is riding a hobby as blind
ly as he rode free silver in 1896.
I assume that at this late date no
other Republican candidate is likely to
enter the field, and therefore I extend
to Senator Bourne an Invitation to dis
cuss with me upon the public platforms
of Oregon during any two weeks of the
primary campaign, his own public rec
ord and the political issues of the hour.
He surely can be spared from Wash
ington for that period. Respectfully.

to be annexed.

state, Albany did not extend its limits

a piece of matchwood. The whole
round-trip voyage of the West from
this coast to and from the antipodes
was streaked with ill luck, for the ves
sel rajrrowly escaped destruction In a
three-days' storm shortly after leav

STOCK MOVES READILY
WEEK AX ACTIVE OXE AT NORTH
PORTLAND YARDS.
Sheep Are the Firmest Feature of
the Trade Saturday's Re
ceipts Small.
The week's trading at the stockyards
came to an end Friday. Only a small
bunch of cattle arrived yesterday and
no sales were reported.
Business throughout the week was
moderately active. Cattle receipts fell
oft as compared with the preceding
week, and this enabled prices to be
fairly well maintained, but no advance
was possible. The downward tendency
of the hog market was checked by
lighter arrivals. Mutton buyers took
over all the sheep and lambs offered,
and the activity made a firm market.
Receipts yesterday were 17 cattle and
one horse, shipped in by W. E. Lowell,
of Heppner.
