Some wheat contracting ia noted, but In small way and at prices around 80 eenta. The market is over supplied with berries and cherries, and black berries and raspberries are beginning to rival them ia the markets and satisfy the public's demand for daily change and something new. The poultry sup ply is good and prices weakening. Egg receipts are falling off, but this has not yet affected the price. An .ad vance, however, can be looked for In the next few days.

PORTLAND MEN FILE TWO INITIATIVE MEASURES TODAY Two initiative measures have been filed with the secretary of state by C. S. Jackson and F. W. Mulkey, both of Portland. One is a proposed amend ment to the constitution providing that the title to submerged lands shall re main with the state for the benefit of public commerce and navigation, and that any grant which interferes with these purposes is forbidden. It further authorizes cities to build docks and wharves on such lands and provides also that where such submerged binds are not needed by the city they may be leased. The other is a bill to carry in to effect this constitutional amendment and provides that no lease of such lands shall be for a longer period than 25 years, and may be cancelled in 10 years if the city needs the lands for its own use. It provides that in case of eanecllatipn of such leases the city shall nay for the improvements thereon, and that half the money received from such leases be placed in the municipal dock fund, if there is suen a fund, and otherwise in the general fund. The other half of such moneys shall go to the general school fund. COUSINS ARE ARRESTED ON BIGAMY CHARGE S8n Francisco, June 4. Edward B.

GEORGIA TOWN WET; CITIZEN GIVES REASON Another Georgia town has voted in favor of saloons, and here is the reason given by a citizen: "If we are going to stand for our women folks wearing shadow skirts and slit skirts and transparent skirts and our younger women learning to dance the boll weevil wiggle, the Texas Tommy tango, the bunny hug, the boar dance, the half centre, the buzzard flop and tbo puppy huddle, and so on down the line, then the men folk ought just as well have their saloons and tiie whole-push go to hell together." iPineville (Ga.) Her ald. . ; 1 NEWBERO TELEPHONE CO. IS PERMITTED JO RAISE RATES The matter 'of th application of the Nowberg Telephone company for au thority to increase its rates has been passed upon by the railroad commission. The oompany made a showing that its expenses would be increased from this time on, due to the raising the stipend heretofore passed out to its employes by order of the Industrial Welfare com mission, and that. this would permit it to earn a net of ily 1.4 per cent on its investment, and the commission granted a raise of about half of that asked for. The expenses of the com pany were increased $9fi0 a year by the action of the Industrial commission. This showB how tlio acts of one com mission have to be considered and their effects toned down by the intervention of some other commission, and gives point to a quotntifi in an Oregonian editorial of Wednesday, telling of some one in an eastern state who had been notified by the agent of one commis sion to repair a 4Joor in hig hotel or he would close it. Another ngent of another commission ordered him to tear down the hotel, and the puzzled owner wrote Btill another commission Ib in tirely asking which he should do first.

Captain Keen, who will do the twirl ing against Albany Haturday, bns been ; putting his men through stiff batting t practices the last few days in prepara tion for the Albany heaver and as a re sult the boys are expecting to have a few binglet chalked up to their eredit. The Hslem high school team is with out doubt the best ia the state, and the game Saturday is expected to draw the largest crowd that has witnessed a baseball game this season. LITERARY SOCIETIES DEBATE. The annual Wcbstcrian-Philodorian debate between the two leading men's literary societies of Willamette univer sity was held last evening in the Phil odorian halls. According to the new system, no decision was given. The question discussed was: "Re solved, that the Piglish cabinet system should be adopted in the state of Ore igon.". The debaters prepared on the I general topic of information in state ; governments. A few hours before the debate the exact question was announc ed and the teams assigned their side of the question. The Philodorians were represented by Walter Clieset. and Cbas. Ohling. The Websterians nsisted of Harry Savage sod Paul Homan. Both team presented a strong ease. There are doubtless experts who would testify that T. B. was insane. M!v'i!r,rti w 4, 1014.
