creased and Quadrupled.
WASHINGTON, d. c., October 15.-The
Post this morning publishes an interview
with Commissioner Tanner, in which he
justifies his action in reopening Senator
Manderson's pension. He says: 81 have
not seen copy of Secretary Mobiles letter
to Senator Manderson, but judging from
the extracts quoted in Senator Manderson'
letter, presume he decided that re-
opening was illegal because no application
had been made. If that is his reason, all
| can say is that the Secretary must have
very peculiar ideas concerning the case.

The Coffee Market.

For quite period coffee, without
any apparent cause, steadily in
creased in price. There was no
shortage In the crop, but that cir
cumstanee did not prevent the ad-
vance. Although no regularly form
ed pool or trust could be discover
ed, it was quite evident that the
large Eastern importing houses had
formed some kind of a combination
to increase the cost of the berry TO
their customers. 1t will be pleasant
news to the consumers CT coffee to
be informed that the plan seems to
have failed. After remaining in a
rather unsteady condition for sew
eral days, the market has weakened,
and prices are coming down. This
was not by any neans a copper
trust, and has not attracted much
attention, but it would soon have
caused great complaint, had not its
collapse come SO sooI.-C.-J.

herring to the nail, which growing
outward drags the skin along with
it, stretching it until one end gives
way. To prevent this, the skin
should be loosened from the nail

and this is best done after soaking

According to the report of the
Auditor, the tobacco crop OF Ken.
tuoky which is now being put on
the market Is nearly SO0,O0o,0OC
pounds, bringing in to our farmers
between 100000 and $20,0O0,O0o
in CASH. Tobacco has for n long
time been king in Kentucky, and
the productions of this staple in our
State il steadily increasing. It's
the ready money crop, and furnish
es the larger part of our rural pcpu-
lation with means to buy their gro
ceries and clothes.
The farmers of Kentucky have
often been told MOTIF grow tobacco
in large quantities, bit 70 devote
their land chiefly 10 grain and pas.
turase. But petty theories are FREE
quently destroyed by practice, and
il tobacco pays d land owner more
than cereals he is going to raise the
former. In the same manner the
Southern States, despite the talk of
the liberalization ofcrops, wilIcon-
tinue to make cotton their great
staple, because their land is better
adapted to that than to anything
else, and it profits them most.
The power that tobacco has over
Kentucky farmers is shown by the
great increase Of its production in
the Bluegrass counties, where grass,
grain and cattle are.so profitable.
Nevertheless the latter are compell-
ed to give way to Burley Still it
would be well for The producers to
remember the advice of the dealers
and beware Of an overproduction,
diminishing the price until the cost
Of raising and preparing it for mar
ket exceeds the amount received.
