Jt Is a holiday time with salmon

In consequence The local market is not

are very firm at 6 7c a pound and all
of the wants of the trade cannot -be
supplied even then. , ... '
There Is a like shortage In the ar

Hop Boosters .Are Quite Busy.

TorsUra Markets Bo Hot Follow.
While there has been boosting of
' prices here in oraer to get proauoers
lo . hold so that' the speculators can
unload without a 'Ions, this -is the only
.' market that is showing any degree of
' activity and most of the activity here
. Is confined to a few Interests who are
long on hops and it Is therefore to their
interest to put up & bold front. While
v: as here there is a demand for choice
; goods everywhere, ordinary stock Is
. rather neglected and in Europe they
still retain liberal holdings of l06's
and .1907 s that are not being picked
wp even at the low prices offered. As
.long as these goods are neglected abroad
there seems little hope for any great
spurt here, unless It is artificially
. created. ,
i-. , Cranberries Axe Advanced. '
-v , An advance of about BOo a barrel Is
shown in local quotations on eastern
cranberries for late arrivals. The mar
ket Is up fully that amount at primary
points and for that reason alone local
conditions are sure to follow. Local
berries are about gone but the price la
held firm for the few offerings.
' Several chests of strawberries arrived
from Los Angeles this morning in good
' condition.' .-. - I .-
Offerings " of cabbage are Increasing

easier at $1.60.76. v
Xrooal Bggs Are Scarce.
. There is a scarcity ofarrlvala of local

firmer. An advance in the east is hav
' in- a stiffening effect upon outside

long
lost uncle by packed houses at the Baker
theatre yesterday, when he returned
as "the unknown" la that most popular

big slow-moving, rum-soaked rheumatic
and testy "rounder," who late In

as a Cohan comedy can have, 1 Mr.
Keough, in course of hls repeated visits
to Portland, has made himself as he
would put It, "a four time winner,"
