Ing paid, the general market not ruling
over 7c for beat quality. Short sellers
. who aold beat quality at good prices
are the purchasers at thla time and
because of the ahort crop they are
somewhat worried over the outcome.
While they are able to purchase all the
- ordinarily good quality they want at
' low figures, the beat atuff which they
old a year or ao In advance la very
scarce and growera of thla quality havo
It In their power, from present Indi
cations, to force theae ahorta to pay
somewhere near what the hopa are
worth. Most of these hlgh-gracie saies
were to English brewera and they In
Int invariably that the deliveries be
just what they contracted for. This
will be especially true of the market
this year, for whenever genersl values
are very low, the call la alwaya for he
better grades. When prlcea are high
' any old sort of hopa will do.
Leaden ef the Buy In.
The leaders of the late buying of
theae choice hops are Isaac Pincua 4
Pons of Tacoma, E. Clement Horat and
Klaber, Wolf A Nefter Co. , The latter
firm Is especially active of late accord
ing to reports, and In order to get
select quality has been forced to pay
it higher range of values. Outside of
these urgent deliveries which the trade
" believes the firm is compelled to make
at this time, the members of the
Klaber,: Wolf & Net ter organization are
very bearish In their views. Principal

Another of the most bearish ones

K. Clement Horst. Mr. worst is Known
to be one of the tnost bearish of the

The bearish activity of these two big
firms is believed to be simply a scneme
of the leaders to cause the small grow
ers to plow up their hops so the big
ones can "corner' the market. It Is
known that if low prices are continued
for awhile many srrowers will be forced
tw bo out of business and their yards
will be purchased for little or nothing
by the leaders. Of late there have
been several advertisements in the
papera asking for yards to rent. It is

While there is a difference of opinion
regarding whether the cattle market
will do better In the nar future aa re
gards prices, the trade Is Inclined to '
tne opinion that good rat aleers will
find a very liberal clemsnd.
'The bis- run in the cattle market la
about over," says 8. P. Uould. Of Hen-
son & Ouuld, this morning. "From this
time forth we can expect a better class
of stock and arrivals will not be so
heavy.v Those who were forced to ahiD
their cattle on a glutted market, have
aireauy aone so, and witnin a snort
time we - will llkolv he irwttinir noUi-
lng but the flnlHlied stuff. There Is
not the slightest difficulty In selling
11 the jrood stuff srrlvlna- and when
the run of cattle becomes smaller buy
ers will likely pay more."
Fat sheet) are. in demand and It is
quite probable that there will be some
mprovement In tills line soon. Arrlv-
is nave been decreasing or late and
even -now select wethers are easily dis
posed of at SHc while ordinary stuff
hangs around J'c. The lambs arriving
rrom the valley are too big and for this
reason no improvement In that line is
at present anticipated.
Oood Hogs Holding All Klgrht. -"While
there Is a much softer tone In
ordinary hogs, good quality Is finding
a sale. The course of the local hog mar
ket for the near future is hard to pre
dict. "This is the time of the year when
hogs usually sell lower here, but there
Is a very good tone In the east snd
this may hold any possible decline here
In check."
Lee M. Lacy, of Hunt & Lacy, says
regarding the livestock situation:
r'Good hogs are r,till finding a de
mand around $7 but poor stuff Is some
what neglected at the lower range.
"Prime, fat arid heavy steers are mov
ing' off freely when reported In the
yards and If the stuff is first-class there
is no trouble in getting $4.25. It takes
something select, however. Personally.
I do not believe the cattle market will
advance for awhile."
J. F. Flint sent in supplies of hogs
and calves for the local market.
A year ago today all lines were just
bdoui steady.

The entire grain market was quiet to
day. There was little doing In either
the cash or future deliveries either on
the board of trade or elsewhere. Ex
porters continue to purchase dribbling
lots of wheat in the interior, but none
of them are paying over use ior ciuo
and aome are not willing to give that
sum. Growers, however, are firm in
their views around the higher figure
and no sales under 88c have been re
norted for the sDot stuff. There was
nn chunare in bid or ask values for fu
tures on the board of trade today, trade
reflecting the -usual Monday aunness.
There is a slight weakening of hold
ers on October oats, but there was no
business passing on the board of trade
todav. Bidders were bidding former
nuntatlons.
Cash barley market Is firmer, with
some small business, reported for the
day. There waa no onange in values on
the board or traae.
Millfeeds are still so scarce end high
that much complaint Is coming from the
dalrvmen. With the prospects or a
slight decline In butter prices, owing
to the importation of eastern supplies
at materially lower values, cream pro
ducers are likely to receive a lower
figure instead of an advance asked for.
According to information received to
day a large per cent of the green silo
feed whlcrrls usually put up the latter
part of September was caught by the
recent frost and ruined. With oats
selling to feeders at $33 a ton they are
indeed in hard luck.

BRINGS BLINDNESS
For prohibition In Oregon In 1910
is to be the Important declaration to
oe made during the Zdth annual con
vention of the Woman's Christian Tem
perance union which begins tomorrow
In the Tsylor street church.
The members have been working: for
years In all, parts of the state with
this end in view "and now. believing
that the time is ripe, absolute prohi
bition laws and the enforcement of
them In every way is to be declared
for. Furthermore, the women sre to
make every possible effort to see tha'
the movement of the convention Is
well advertised and at the same time
thousands of workrs over all the state
will be doing all In their, power to
carry out the prohibition plans.
Mrs. Henrietta Brown, the state pres
ident of the union, whose home is in
Albany, arrived In Portland thla morn
ing -to remain until the convention is
orougnt to a close.
Mrs. Brown said today that the unton
would consider the north end question
In every way. and that everything pos
sible to help the unfortunate women
would be done. Mrs. Brown said that
the union members are strongly In fav
or of following the Ideas of the Trav
elers' Aid In its efforts to help those
women who- are anxious and wlllins
7! to do better, lead different lives and
47. really make something of themselves.
8 The convention opens tomorrow
74 j morning at 10:30 o clock.
Accepting the advice of one of
his 'solicitous friends that he
take 21 grains of quinine and a
pint of whiskey for a bad cold.
L, C. Black, a deputy game
warden, has landed In the county
hospital, Almost totally blind.
It was about one month ago
when Black took the heroic rem
edy for his cold. He Is under,
the care of Deputy County
Physician McCornlck, who says
the man has a chance to recover
his sight. His duties- as game
warden took him to Forest
Grove, but as his home is in
Sell wood he came here for treat
ment. Black Is 3$ years of age. W.
L. Gatens and A R. Mendenhall
are brothers-in-law, but are so
situated that they are unable to
care for him.
church suggested that the women he
persuaded to substitute something at
home for liquor that would erstiU-ate
the longing, and that they look out for
headache . medicines and other stimu
lants. , .
!.,r' ?rd,n I'1 he fought his first
fight 86 years ago In the legislature '
of North Carolina and that out of
10 votes six were Cast for prohibition
as a party, but when.lt rami to a
queatlon of license or not license 61
voted for prohibition. He said a party
Prohibitionist cannot stand on one
plank only and that saloonmen are de
lighted so long as the Issue Is left with
one party. - . , ,
' Bepublloans Soared.
Tims was extended to Dr. Clarence T.
Wilson, who scored tha present candi
dates of both parties because they had
not made a.- atund for prohibition, and
specially scored the Ilopubllcan party
for nominating the foremost exponent
of-the canteen law He said a year ago
hs had given up the Prohibition party
as too slow a Means to an end. but now
he was glad that he could vols In It,
and If enough votes were csst for ths
Prohibition party this vear it wnuM
force the Issue in four years to a promi
nent place In ths other party tickets.
Dr. Benjamin V. Young brought up '
the matter of two saloons In th Oregon '
Klectrlo depot and said It was an af
front to the public to have theae atr. '
Ing In their faces. It waa referred to a
special committee of Drs. Youns.
Brougher and Foulkes to Investigate the
matter.
Extraneous matters, being Introduced
into-the ministers' meetings without
forewarning, also came In for Ha share
of comment, as a result of tha Social- '
1st sjveaker's Interruption at the last
meeting. The program committee was
Instructed to look more carefully Into
the subjects' on which visitors wish to "
speak and to a certainty their reason
for appearance.
This was precipitated by the appear
ance of a Mr. Stevens, who avowed his ,
representation or tbe socialist party and
asked for a chance to speak. After con
alderable hair-splitting be was permit
ted to come forward, but Ironically
stated thst the meeting had taken up
so much of his time In hair splitting
that hs no longer had time to say mors
than that a so-called Socialist had been
attacking the ministers in general and
Mr Stone of the Y. M. C. A. In particu
lar, and he wished to set the party right
and to show that these attacks were not
authorised. He asked the committee for
time for detailed speech at another ttm.
