CATTLE MARKET GLUTTED.
Holiday Shipments to the Portland
Stockyards Are Very Heavy.
Cattle shipments from the Inland
empire Into Portland yards have en
tirely "swamped" the market and th
rush Is not yet over according to
market reports from that city.
The market editor of the Oregonian
rays of conditions in the cattle market
there, this week:
Cattle shippers in the country seem
to be lahomlg under the mistaken
Idea that the only time to sell their
stock in this market Is at Christmas.
For several days they have been rush
ing In their cattle In a way that has
completely demoralized the market.
It would not be so bad If the stock
was good, but the large proportion
was made up of lightweight and half
fat sieers and common cows. The re
sult la that f)f market Is glutted and
stock that l( U fti'jiost impossible to
move at any price. Jesteri'a.y's re
JtjMl at lb. rd. re j ;ars of-
which five were through. The other
13 completely paralyzed the market
period aggregating 1 37,501. Of this
sum $69,954 Is for maintenance, J21,
325 for operating expenses, $16,222 for
additional equipment needed In the
various departments and $S0,000 for
a new building for the use of the gym
nasium and training school and for
Improved heating facilities.
"The 17th academic year, which is
Just closod. has seen an enrollment of
145 In the training school, and 324
in the normal school, making a total
of 471. The attendance In the nor
mal school, exclusive of the summer
school, which numbered 50, has been
278.
"In response to an urgent demand
the policy of holding summer school
was instituted last year, with an at
tendance of 50. This year's summer
school numbered 65. Spokesman-Review,
"Tnis is the finest weather I have
seen since I left here over two weMcs
ago," declared Dr. C. J. Smith this
morning after his return from a visit
at his old home in Ohio. He was
away from the city 16 days, and of
those 10 were passed en route.
On his return Dr. Smith came over
the Northern Pacific to Spokane and
says they found a continuous sheet of
snow extending from Just east of St.
Paul to Spokane. At one place, Far
go, S. D the thermometer registered
20 degrees below xero when the trnln
passed through and during most of the
trip the weather was so cold that the
passengers aboard the trnln were
compelled to wear their overshoes and
overcoats In order to keep warm. As
a result Dr. Smith was in an appro
priate frame of mind to appreciate
Pendleton's balmy climate upon his
return.
v nue absent upon his short visit
Senator Smith was a close observer
of the Industrial conditions In the
states through which he passed. He
declares that the transportation prob
lem is more serious In the Dakntns
nd In Minnesota than In the north
west. Not only Is there a fuel short
age because of the railroad's failure
to supply cars, but there Is also a
scarcity of food In places, and the
cold weather In those state makes the
situation worse.
As in the states farther west the
complaint Is made that empty cars are
left upon sidetracks, while the rail
road people make excuses to shippers
that they are short of rolling stock
At Billings, Mont., It has been Impos
sible to secure enough cars to carry
the ore from the mines, and yet It Is
said 500 empty cars were recently
upon the sidetracks there at one
time.
As a result of the failure of the
roads to handle the business Dr.
Smith says there Is general talk all
over the country of reciprocal de
murrage laws similar to that now In
force in Wisconsin and which Is pro
posed for this state.
Just a few suggestions of practical presents
Something to appreciate and something to keep.

The Mortgage Foreclosure Suit Was
Against Baker & Garrison.
Through an error In this paper
last evening It was stated that a
mortgage foreclosure suit had been
brought by Messrs. Campbell and
Shubert against the firm of Baker &
Sullivan. Instead of being against
the latter firm the action was directed
at the firm of Baker & Garrison, for
mer owners of the Idle Hour saloon.
Consequently, an Injustice was done
Joe Sullivan, who Is now the sole
proprietor of the business formerly
owned by Swearlngen Bros., and has
not been Involved In any financial difficulties.

SUCCESSFUL ROADS MEETING.
La Grande Convention in the Interest
of Good Roods Wag Very Profita
ble. With mud and slUBh Bhoe-top deep
In the main streets and the mud so
deep In the lanes leading Into La
Grande that It was almost Impossi
ble for farmers to reach town, the La
Grande good roads convention was
held at an opportune time to Impress
upon the people the need of good
roads In eastern Oregon.
Dr. James Wlthycombe, director of
the Oregon experiment Btatlon at Cor
vallls and an enthusiastic supporter
of the good roads movement, passed
down the O. R. & N. on the delayed
train today to his home after attend
ing the convention and Is highly
pleased with the results. Farmers
who were In attendance In large
numbers were deeply interested In
road Improvement and it Is believed
that the meeting will have a good ef
fect In many ways.
What Is known as ''Booth lane," In
Grand Rnode valley Is conceded by
all who are familiar with It, to be the
worst piece of county road In Ore
gon, was a .frequent subject of discus
sion, and T. T. Geer, of this city, who
addressed the convention' on the evils
of bad roads, says an organized ef
fort will be made next spring by the
Union county court and the farmers
living in the vicinity to find bottom In
this famous lane and begin some ac
tual Improvements. . ,
