The fir market has l-en assisted materially by t.e heavy p ;r hases of southern pine by the allies for ue In trench building and winter . :arter- for the men on the fU'itir.t: fr-T-t. for It took out of the 1 om;.et:tive markets imiuense q lar.tilii. 01 S" itr...-rn pine. Eastern Market Broader. It is now possible for Oregon fir to penetrate much fa-ther east of the Missouri river than wr.cn the southern pine manufacturers had their traveling salesmen In the field. Southern pin-i, as a result of the heavy :...re:n de mand, advanced from $3 to per thousand feet, and this advance was reflected In the fir markets. The railroads have been the heaviest lumber consumers in the past, hut dur ing the past two or three yens their purchases have been extremely light. Even now, on the first advance of t:i market the railroads have nof begun making as heavy purchases as it 1-1 felt they should ay this time, but manufacturers say they will have to come in on the eecond advance. Temnorarv closintr c . f tha I'manu i canal, b-cause of the stales, has pre vented trie Pacific northwest lumber manufactur ers from hai ins in tn--business placed in this country by the warring nations and it has also put a top to lumber shipments to the Atlan tic coast ports, a business that was showing a fair beginning when the blockade occurred. Traffic thrcrugh the canal by March has been men tioned as probable and th.i will give the Oregon lumber manufacturers ad iltion . :fet for their product. Lack of Snips Handicaps. The f..:eign bus-ncus has been light the pa.: ; .r ,,n account of tie tcarcity ..f MiTtable carriers and this 9Ut another crimp into the business However, the nations that have been In the habit of l. : ;t.K Oregon fir are now short on s!o ks and w ill be heavy buyers when bottoms aam become available. A great deal t.f building material da hern shipped out Oregon tne plt SO .lays to retdei.isli sr... lfl tie ards of the midole stat.-s where the Dbilding industry nas teen act.ve for tome tlrne. Sprure manufacturers havi been nore fortunate during the ear than ihe mar.ufacturers of fir, for spruce jas been found a very excellent m lerial in the manufacture of aero lanes and millions of feet of the Ioni ser has t.em shipped from Pacific aorthwest mills recently to buyers of -.hat kind of matt-rial.

Ai for the box shook trade it wu lomewhat curtailed in volume and irices were a little lower than normal This was due "largely to a reduc-ti... 11 the salmon pack, and a 75 per cent !ruit crop. It in reported, however, iiat the middle western rail market 'dr northwest fchooks is gradually ex ariding. The general adverse conditions ir. Je box trade of the northwest is at sributed to the fact that t?e depres ilon in the lumber trade caused niar.y umber manufacturer to give more at ntlon to the shook plants than they rould have done had the demand for umber been more active. This caused ewer prices. The prospects for 1916 are said to be Bore encourasir.s. It is hoped to lace a, good many shocks on the At antic coast next summer. kSc- - ' ' - I BE DRINKERS LAY IN 'DRY .SPELL' SUPPLY Wagons En Route for Colo rado Ranches Loaded With "Wet Goods," SALOONS DARK SATURDAY (selling at 89 cents a quart.

Colorado goes "dry" after midnight Friday, and its 1600 saloons today could hardly be seen for the cut-rate Eule hIkhs. The Uvust remarkable feature of im minent prohibition was the purchase of liquors by persons who have never been known to "drink" or to have In toxicants in their homes. The fact that after Friday liquor can only be obtained four ounces at a time on a non-reflllable physician's prescrip tion, has driven many to lay in a gup-pl- for medicinal purposes The nverHi;.- "drinker" 1 spending al. iif can nfwire for II. ."0 whiskey.

In a Political Way. In a political way. the year has been inconclusive. Sta'e election were few. and while the Prog . . ss . ve party vote fei into insignificance. It could not be nearly accounted for by Increase in the P.epublican vote. It was evident that large droves of Progressive voters remained at home, others went with Die Democrats, ami still (thers joined the Republicans on stale issues. What these voters will 'do next ear depends more than any i ttilng else upon wlvat the Reouhllcans j do at Chicago next June. What Pen ! rose. Sm. ot & Co. Intend t.hail be done is apparent enough, and it remains to be seen wi ether or not the influence of the progressive element of the par ty at t: e primaries will be strong enough to turn lack the r&actionary t.de. The only disquieting note In Demo cratic circle. Is the national prepared ness question, involving as It does new taxation. This Is not a party ques tion, and threatens no party division, but the problem of revenue raising to meet the increased expense at once takes on partisan color. The Republi cans are preparing to make a lot ot noise about increased taxation, without aiways being careful to stiUc that this became necessary because of the mili tary and naval expense that most of them favor. Majority Deader Kitchln summed up this side of it tn an apt way in his talk on the emergency tax measure, when he saJd: "We know that no tax Is popular In times of peace. It is Impossible to write a bill that will appeal to the judgment and gain the approval of every man. but the country has placed t! is government and its finance in tli control of the Democratic party. The necessity exists to raise a certair amount of revenue. The deficits ar- there.
