The New York Evening Sun financial review today said: Today 'a stock market was a dull af fair of decidedly mixed tendencies. De spito frequent sinking spells, there was a firm undertone in both the industrial and railroad departments. Stocks with in tho same group moved in opposite di rections. This was particularly true of the Btcel, motor and sugar stocks. Quo tations for the. most part ruled frac tionally below the Tuesday closing lev el, although there were numerous weak spots and now and then a strong one. notn central leather and Corn Pro ducts Refining, which were in demand yesterday at substantial advances, neu tralized practically ail those gains to day. Tho copper issues wero consist entlv under pressure also the tobaccos. Crucible Steel, Baldwin Locomotive, PittBburg Coal and Westinghousc Elec tric were iit the dumps.

She BENTON PIONEER BUSIED Corvallia, Or-, Sept. 26 L. N. Td-I Otis Compton of Scio, age 19, enlisted in the infantry yesterday at the local recruiting station in Salem and left this morning for Portland. For the first 20 days of this month the recruiting offiec on State street has forwarded lo men With the exception of Portland, Salem stands second in the Btate in enlisting recruits so far this month. Baker stands at the head of tho list for the month's recruiting, outside of Portland. o This afternoon Salem resembled the deserted village, as ail stores, offices and work of every kind was suspended in order that the people of the city might show the proper spirit by attend ine the fair Salem day. Many of the larger drysroods stores closed for the entire day while almost all lines of business had out the 1U:6U closing sign. Street car traffic, beginning about 9 o'clock equalled that of last year for the morning- with a heavier business than oae year ago ou the afternoon runs. o There are 57 good reason why boys izo wrong, according to Will S. Hale, su perintendent of tne uregon Btate xrain ine school for boys. As part of the in dustrial display of the school at the state fair, ou placards are named the 57 reasons. Oi:e of them and one of the main reasons is labeled "The Junk Man." The desire to raise a little money and knowing that ordinarily any old stuff may be sold to the junk man and no questions asked, is according to Jar. Hale, one of the reasons why boys go wrong. It is the ability to dispose oi junk for ready money that starts tne boy into the line of petty stealing. As a strong moving picture attraction Wm. S. Hart, easily stands at the head with one or two others, along with Mae Marsh. Last night at1 the .Liberty M. Hart, playing in "The Cold Deck" drew one of the biggest crowds of the season. It seems that he can do tne gun play act and also sit in a card game in such a refined way that it i just natural ior one to wish him good luck. Anyhow, "The void Dock" ia one of the best movies that has appeared here for many a day. There are plenty of thrills including an old time stage robbery. o The man who is refused by the exem ption board will have a pretty hard tibe getting into the army, should he feel the patriotic call. According to re cent orders from the provost marshal general 's office, no recruiting officer is permitted to recruit a man who has been exempted by the local exemption board, nor after his name has been post ed to appear for exemption before tin board. -o- "Why We are Fighting," Every one who attends a moving picture show this evening will hear this subject discussed by the "Four Minute Men" apointed by the national committee of publicity, of Washington. The Rev. R. 8. Gill will talk at the Liberty, R. A. Harris at the Bligh and Rollin K. Page at the Oregon. The speakers are called "Four Minute Men" as their talks are limited to four minutes. Last evening the speak ers at the three theatres were all warm ly applauded. Should any one happen to see the Elks' parade tomorrow led by Woodrov Wilson, or his exact double, it should occasion no great esurprise. For there is a man in this city who has the fac ultv of making up and appearing great ly iike Woodrow Wilson and he will lead the Elks' parade. The name of the man who has this distinguished appearance has not as yet been learned, but there is positive assurance that he will lead the parade. o Thursday is Portland Day, Elk Day and Transportation Day. With all the Elks and Portland delegation and the Elks' band of 35 pieces parading the down town district in the morning, there will be something stirring. W. H.

Arraign ing Prussianism in bitter terms, Otto H. Kufhn of! the bantyng house of Kuhn, Lcob and company, New York, today before the chamber of commerce here called on German-Americana to fight for America against the power arrayed against her. v "I speak as one who has seen the spirit of the Prussian governing class at work from close by, having at its disposal and using to the full practic ally every agency for moulding the public mind," he said. "I have watched it proceed with re lentless persistency and profound cun ning to instill into the nation tne de moniacal obsession of power worship and world dominion, to modify and per vert the mentality, indeed, the very fibre and moral substance of the Ger man people." Speaking of the possibility of peace, Katin said: 'God graHt that the German people may before long work out tneir own salvation and find the only road which will give to the world an early peace, and lead Germany back into the family of nations from which it now is an outcast.". ' We Americans of . foreign antece dents," he continued, "are hero not by the accidental right of birth, but by our own free choice, for better or for worse. 'Woe lo the German-American, so- called, who in this sacred war for a cause as high as any for which ever people took up arms, does not feel a solemn urge to rival and outdo his na tive born fellow citizen in devotion of the country. "Americans of German descent are now summoned to join in our country's righteous struggle against a people cf their own blood, which, under the evil spell of a dreadful obsession, has made an enemy of this peace loving nation.
