I Uuioti Stock Yards, South Omaha, Nebr., September 5, laid". Owing to the threat of a railroad strike, very few cattle showed up here for Monday, only 74 loads, about 1S00 head. Motv day's meager supply of cattle Includ ed pactically no cum fed stock, aa the fat cattle market closed pretty bad last week, but the demand from all dressed beef men was active and the way they bought the range beeves Indicated that corn-fed steers would have found a ready sale at strong figures. Demand was good from all sources and offerings brought prices that were strong to 10(015c bljhor than the close of last week. Quotations on cattle: Good to choice beeves $9.75(310.40; fair to good beeves $8.50 9. 60; common to fair beeves $6.6008.50; good to choice heifers $6.C07.25; good to cholc cows $6,400)7.00; fair to good cowt $5.756.25; canners and cutters $4 00 5 50; veal calves $8.00011.00; bol ogna bulls $5.2505.85; beef bulla $6.00 07.00. The smallest run of hogs sine March 14. 1912, showed up on Mom day, due to the railroad embargoes not being lifted soon enough to allow any number of hog to be loaded. Only Ave loads or atiou. 350 head were reported In. Receipts were so small there was not much of a market for Monday. Some mixed packers sold around $10.15, and good butchers went as high as $10 35!i 10.40. The week opem-d with a moderate supply of sheep and lambs, arrivals being estimated at fifty cars, or 13,000 head. Demand n strong for fat liimlis and prii'r-K were higher right from the start.

This kind of Junk, delivered by him yesterday to the Advertising Club of Portland, Ore., may be wild ly applauded by impetuous auditors who are caught by sounding phrases, but what does it mean? "The man who tris to get the bet ter of the public for his private purse," the nominee 8;iid, " is a trait or to the vovernmei i. We will go uhead and put these traitors out of business, while we build up the lim itless of the Umied States." Who Is going to brand these '-traitors"? Will the) stay branded? Who will pick them out? Who are they, anyway? If Mr. Hughes means a particular traitor, or any class of traitors in particular, he oughtn't to balk at giving na.i es. Experience has tauiiht most of us that there are something like 20, 000,000 adult male persona of sound and competent mind In this country who are willing to get the better of the public for their private purses. Iiws which bestow upporluniiieH to get the better of the public, these should be annulled, assuredly, but a general assault on an undesignated array of traitors is a charge upon windmills and chimeras Oeorge Mollring, local horseman, left Sunday morning: in his auto for Gordon, where he is racing his horse, "Major," and William Hill's hors.

The Diamond Match Company ill AN OLD BOXWOOD BORDER There Are Some Survival! of Etautl ful Gar-ten Orn.imentt Still to Be Found. Time was when the boxwood border ws considored the very top notch of front ard garden ornamentation. And tt was thoiiKM to bo very beautiful when trlmmM Into fantastic shapes or clipped evenly in rectangular out line. Take almost any of the old time novels, and In them will appenr a de scription of the boxwood borders run ning a perfectly straight linn from the colonial porch to tho front gate. Hox wood hall was a favorite name for many an old time home. The privet hedge has largely usurped the place of the boxwood border, aays the Newark (N. J.) Newa. The latter was such a alow grower. Years after It was out It seemed hard ly larger than when first planted. But It didn't send out impudent shoot! In every direction; It grew alowly, so lately and In deliberately chosen di rections. It was never In a hurry to be big. Hoys may cut whips from an untrlmmod privet hedge, but no on ever took such liberties with the dig nified old boxwood bush. It did not promote corporal punishment. There were two things about the boxwood border that nona who are acquainted w!th it will ver forget: Its dark green foliage, winter and u miner, and Its persistently unpleas ant odor. The latter Isn't like that of birch, sassafras, sandalwood, willow, butternut or cedar. It Is more like that of the slmploearpua fetldus the skunk cabbage. Hut the box bush (tands up as stiff and dignified aa if it were disseminating the perfumes of rnhy the blest. Now and then some very fine epecl mons of boxwood are found In this country, and wherever they are they point out a place having a history run ning back a century or two. These bushes have not been clipped or oth erwise mutilated since our grandfa thers' days, and have grown Into great trees that Is, great for boxwood. Just uch a bush was recently sighted near Mount Holly by a Long Island million aire, and he paid a small fortune to have It removed to hla estate. It was 12 feet high, more than 15 feet In diameter and with a great clump of clay attached to Its ramified roots, reigned ten tons. It may live In Its new home, but an a rule, these grand jld box bushes resent removals after hey are a hundred years old. A fine group of box bushes adorns the old Ellas Doudinot mansion on ;st Jersey street, Elizabeth, where both Washington and Lafayette were entertained in the old days. Four tirge bushes are still flourishing on the Stoudlnger property, 303 Broad si reel, l oniei of Clay, in Newark. The house was bulH in 1832. and the box i.hi b i have been planted later, but aeh of the four specimens, Is at least ten feet high and as many In diam- ter. Large sums have been offered 'rr them time and again, but have been refund. Doubtless there are it? my other tine sj-e' linens of the olj time favorite box, but a large and Khapely tree l.s still a valuable and ; lierlahed heritage.

Three hours after the senate pnsed without amen nient the Ailamson eicht-hour dny blU piiMseil liy the house Friday, tho heads of the four great railroad employes' brotherhoods telegraphed 600 ode" code niessiittes in tlielr general chair man in all parts of the country can celing the strike order issued over S week ago. The legislative expedient to avert the strike was passed In the senat by a vote of 43 to 28 almost a strict party vote- nield stirring scenes, after many senators, democrats an4 republicans, had fought despertaelf to amend the measure by provisions designed to prevent Industrial dlsa tesr In the future. Some senators thoroughly Hroused, declared con gress was being coerced Into enact ment of legislation that It did not de sire nm. that it knew it would return to plague It In the future. In both houses t' e measure wm signed within a few minutes after tbe final vote In the senate, and It was sent at once to the hUe house, where President Wilson signed It Sunday. Officials of the brotherhood who witnessed the final passage of the bill, bad announced early In the night that cancellation of the strike would not be ordered until the bill had been signed by the president an4 actually had become law. Dut later they conferred, changed their minds, and flashed the code message signal ling to the waiting trainmen of tne country through their chairmen the message that a satisfactory settle ment had been secured. The bill that stopped the strike provides that after January 1, 1917, eight hours shall be regarded as a basis of reckoning for a day's pay of men engaged In the operation of rail road trains in interstate commerce, excepting roads less than 100 miles long and electric lines; that they re eeive pro rata pay for work In excess of eight hours and that their rate of compensation shall not be changed pending an investigation for six to nine mouths of the effect of the eight-hour day upon the railroads bf a commission to be appointed by tho president. Efforts to amend the bill in tho senate were futile, the supreme ef fort to alter It having been led of Senator Underwood, who sought to provide that the Interstate commerce commission should have power to fix railroad wages and hours of set vice In the future. This amendment was defeated by a vote of 57 to 14. Only two democrats, Senator Hardwh k of Ceorgla an I Clark of Arkansas, voted against the bill, and one republican, La Kollette of IWs cousiii, voted for it.
