ST. (Sped.l Dl.pitrh to Th JonrnsL Seattle, 'Wash., Oct. 12. Rough lum ber has bwn slashed ly Interior mills from Jl to 14 per 1.000 and Is selling to rail and cargo trade at S3, the low est figure In years. T'pper grades have been cut from 60 cents to SI. 50 off the prlcellst. The cut In rrl-es on rough lumber Is unprecedented In extent and , means low-grada lumber will be sold at less than cost of manufacture, the profit coming In the upper grades. But the cut of S4 per 1.000 on rough lumber and the reduction, on the upper trades bring the mill participating In the reduction dangerouHly near the point Khere the average price netted the mill will not pay the coat of manu facture. hog prices went off tt per 1,000 last month, but the reduction had already been anticipated by the shrinkage In lumber prices and does not justify the big cut in tne lacier. It Is declared by lumbermen and wholesalers that the cut In lumber prices Is made by small Interior mills Which have to sen a pari or meir ac cumulated stocks to meet payments. A partial canvass of the state Indi cates that shout hair me lumner mum are now closed, and If the market de moralization , continues the percentage will be Shamir Increased this month. A postal card canvass of the mills In dicates about 8 per cent only, have bookeed new orders since the announce ment of the lumber and shingle ad vances to become effective on Novem ber 1. The cargo market nas neen ae noralised for a month. California Is overstocked and tne demand In that State has lagged all the year. 107.

(United Press Leased Wire.) Minneapolis, Minn., Oct 12. Minne sota triumphed over Ames 8 to 0 in the first game of the football season on Northrup field. The victory came through two field goals. The Ames players looked to average about 176 to 176. The teams had none of their old atyle of play, but were well equipped with the forward pass, clever end runs and good, stiff line attempts. Minnesota did not present nearly her foil strength In today's game. Case was not n the lineup at the tackle po sition, and Dunn, through an Injury, was not in the game. Minnesota played a ragged game, painfully crude at times but snowed promise of galnlns power. BRINGS TO LIGHT SIGNIFICANT FACT STRIKING FEATURES OF COM ING BIG MUSICAL EVENTS. Sotisa, Madame Maconda and Maud Powell Each Have Widely Differ ent, Opinions on Some Points, But All Agree That the Line of High est Quality Is Hard to Beat In connection with the three great musical events which are to occur In Portland within the next couple of weeks, there is a most significant fea ture which will demonstrate In a par ticularly striking manner the suprem acy in certain lines occupied by one of Portland's well-known firms. First. Is the comlnjr of Bousa and his band, who are to appear at the Armory on the mh and 19th. Sousa, as will be noticed in an announcement elsewhere in today's paper, gives the Kimball pi ano an eloquent Indorsement. Next, on the evening of the 24th, will appear Madame Charlotte Maconda, at the Hullig theatre. In connection with her engagement Is noted the fart that the famous Chlckerlng piano will be used to accompany her. And on the after noon of the 25th will be hoard Maud rowell. the great violinist, also at the Helllg theatre.. Miss Powell will be . accompanied by the Weber piano Here, then, are three great artists, each at the top of the list in their par ticular field, and here also are the world's three greatest pianos, and the triklng feature of. the connection rests : In the fact that each of these instru ments ia represented in Portland by the am firm. It 1 not' bard to guess the name of - . this establishment, for when one thinks - of leadership, the name of Eilers comes ,' first to mind. And when one thinks of v Chickerinsr. Weber, or Kimball, natur ally the thourht la instantly linked to Eilers Piano House. Tills striking illustration of the pres ; tiff enjoyed by these three great lead ers of. the piano world, and of Eilers Piano House, as exclusive representa tives of these three renowned makes. Is a most decisive one, and leaves no room for argument as to the supremacy of the House of Eilers, and of the "Line of Highest Quality," a beaded by these three woria-ramous productions. Ellere Piano House have a splendid display of these three Incomparable makes upon their floors at the present time, consisting of both uprights and Grands, and prospective piano purchas ers wilt rind the exhibit well worthy of more than paasin attention, Arena J Atlantic v.

L'MTTERSON HOT lownuns Kentucky Editor Bemoans Fate of Old Time Dem ocratic Party. (United Preas Lraaed Wire.) New York, Oct. 12 "The prosperity of the United States Is not and never again can be dependent trpon the policy of any man or set of men; neither does It depend on politicians or political par ties. The sooner we all realise that fact the better off we will be." Colonel Henry Watterson, editor of the Louisville Courier-Journal, is In New York for his annual fall vacation. and expressed this view after declaring ne is out of politics forever. He won't talk politics at length either. although occasionally friends prevail on mm to give nis reasons. "I have attended my last state and national convention," he declared. When I suggested sometime ago John l Johnson of Minnesota as an Ideal candi date for all that Is left of the once proud Democratic party, I meant well. The criticism that followed waa In many instances unkind and untruthful. So It has been ever since I took occa sion to tell Bryan the truth and show him he and his friends were strangling to death all the remained of the old-time Democratic party.

Bay City Land Co. 319 Lumber Exchange 170 Commercial Street Portland, Oregon PHONE MAIN 1116 Salem, Oregon The closing out of our wholesale clothing House hasl brought the opportunity to thousands of men to provide a good Winter Suit or Overcoat at a saving of fully one third and on many Suits one half regular prices. During the ten days that the sale has been running in the Couch building the large store has been taxed to handle the people buying clothing alone. But we noticed that a great many people asked for Underwear, and this gave us an idea that we might help them out and at the same time increase the popularity of our sale. With this idea in view we went to tKe two large whole sale underwear houses here in Portland and made them a proposition to close out at a reduced price their small lots, and odds and ends left over from this season's busi ness. They jumped at this as a chance to clean out the stock. We took all the choicest lots, and on Monday; about 10 o'clock we will open in connection with our closing-out sale on clothing the greatest underwear sale on record. If we are any judge of underwear, this stock and the prices we will sell it at will jam this store to the doors on Monday afternoon. One lot to which we desire to call special attention is that ribbed in blue and flesh colors, made from a fine mixture of cotton and wool, which we will sell at 45 cents. It is the same as that which often retails at $1.00. In the better qualities are some very cHoice silk and P wool mixtures in ahalf dozen different colors. We notice the same things being shown in some exclusive stores at $6.00 and $7.00 per suit. Our price will be $3.50 per suit. There are plenty of other lines in good wool at 75 and 95 cents, also better qualities at $1.00 and $1.25. Monday afternoon sees the beginning of the slaugh ter in Underwear. J.
