BEVTEW OF JHE LOCAL MAEKET.
; Business in mercantile lines has an
improved appearance,- and a better feel
ing exists among our merchants.- Fresh
supplies of goods have replenished the
depleted stocks, and more activity is
noticed with dealers, than a week ago.
Sugars are firm and are held at steady
prices, with an anticipated advance in
the lower markets. ' Meats, that is to
say smoked, are firm and an advance is
predicted.' We append the following
from Wednesday's Oregonian.
The local market is very ' firm, espec
ially on provisions. Canned and smok
meats are high and firm, and will con
tinue to advance. There is no change
in the price! of fresh ' meats, but that
there will soon be an upward tendency
is evidenced, by the rapidly diminishing
supply. When prices begin to advance,
which will be before the end of the week,
they will necessarily continue on the
rise until the 1st of June, when grass
fed beef can be brought in off the ranges.
Eggs are decidedly weaker. The rul
ing price yesterday still seemed to be 17c
though many dealers were selling for
16c. The large amount of eggs shipped
from the East to the Sound by reason
of discrimination in railroad rates, has
partially shut out the ' Oregon article,
and shippers have to depend upon the
home markets.
There is a fresh movement of wheat
in the market. Farmers who have held
on to their grain - are realizing better
prices than those that sold last season.
The Wasco warehouse is buying, and
75 cents per bushel is being paid. The
Diamond Mills are in the field buying
all they can get at the price above nam
ed. There are strong indications for
better prices for 1891 wheat, owing to
various causes which are telling on the
markets at home and abroad The Ore
gonian furnishes the following in rela
tion to wheat and the outloook.
The prospect of a foreign wheat short
age has caused a sharp advance in cer
eals this month. May wheat rose nearly
8 cents, and corn nearly 5 cents a bushel,
in both New York and Chicago. This
rapid advance recalls September,.-1869,
when failing crops abroad forced up the
price of American grain.. Since 1882,
when prices fell, they have remained
low, and the European supply from
other countries has increased relative to
our own. , In quantity,- our exports of
cereals have been one-half to two-thirds
what they were in the years ?1879-80,
and the ruling price has been two-thirds
what it. was then. The weather ..has
been favorable in our winter wheat ' belt
for the maturity of the crop, and a large
acreage of spring- wheat has been sown
under the stimulus of high prices. Our
domestic wheat crop, promises to be
large. There are very general and unan
imous reports of crop failures in France,
Germany and England; and. an ; active
and strong demand from abroad ' for
wheat for early delivery. If this situa
tion is. maintained, we shall have a large
wheat surplus for sale abroad at high
prices, which means prosperity to all
classes of trade, rt- i
' Wool has 'begun to move, and already
several lots have beeq received nt the
warehouse, while there is r a 'prospective
large clip,-and a very Jfiue staple, ' Our
buyers seem to "be quite dissap'pointed
ill the appearance of that already 'deliv
ered. Owing to' absence of rain on the
gracing districts, the feeces have gather
ed an unusual amount of dust and dirt,
which they-say renders it less marketa
ble and consequently4 prices will rule
lower accordingly." This will be a dis-
sappointinent to our sheep men and the
only ifeinedy' for this" 'misfortune1 is" the1
establishment of ' cleansing or scouring
work in this city which would be able to
put the wool on the market . clean, and
thus save to the 1 owner 60 'per ' cent;' or
save paying freight n at least 2,000,000
pounds of dirt by so doing. '

OUR NEW JUDGE.
A Short History of the Able Gentleman
who was Today Appointed.
Mr. W. L. Bradshaw, of this city, who
has just been appointed judge of the
seventh judicial district to fill the vacan
cy caused by the resignation of Judge
Bird, is a man of splendid honesty and
integrity and excellent legal ability.
He was born in Putnam county, Mo.,
on the 28th day of September, 1858, and
is therefore in his 33d year. In 1865 he
came to Oregon, across the plains, and
has ever since been a resident of this
state.
After attending college at Corvallis,
for about two years, he entered the St.
Louis Law school, where he graduated
in the class of 1881. He was admitted
to the bar of this state, in the same year
and commenced the practice of law at
Lafeyette, in Yamhill county, going into
partnership with his father Col. E. C.
Kradshaw, who afterwards practiced law
in this city for a number of years.
When his father died, in the fall of
1888, Mr. Bradshaw came up here to
settle his affairs, and was so pleased
with the city and country that he de
cided to locate in The Dalles, which he
did in January, 1889, forming a partner
ship with Mr. J. L. Story, with whom he
has continued the practice of his profes
sion up to the present time.
Since locating here he has enjoyed a
good and remunerative practice, and has
established himself in the good will and
kind regards of the people of this city
and county, as is shown by the strong
recommendations that ' were sent down
to governor Pennoyer in his behalf.
He will undoubtedly make a satisfac
tory judge and reflect credit upon the
administration making his appointment.
