CORN VS.. COAL.

The cornfelds of Kansas are less
han five hundred miles from the coal
fields OF Illinois, but under the wise
public policy of II government the
coal miners Of Illinois are starving for
want OF Kansas corn, while the farmers
II. Kansas are freezing from lack of
Illinois coal. We have lived under
The present public policy Tor the past
quarter of a century, during which
time railroad monopolies and coal COM
bincs have been permitted to bring
about the above conditions. With the
farmers Of Kansas burning corn tor
fuel and the coal miners of Illinois
starving for it, is there any wonder
that people are calling for reforms?
The farmers have organized for the
purpose of eliminating these condi.
tions. Thev know it is not right to
burn corn when there is an abundance
of coal. Neither is it right for people
TO 60 hungry for want of this same
corn. They are beginning 10 ask each
other If it is not time some other pol
icy was tried. The present policy of
government has been thoroughly tested
and found wanting, and the belief is
rapidly gaining strength that the times
arc ripe for q change.

The Well-lnown Smyrna Phosphate
Makers Financially Embarrassed.
staf Correspondence EVENING JouRSAL.
SMYRNA, Dec. 30 Lewis g. Price
phosphate manufacturers in this town,
are financially embarrassed and have
suspended, pending settlement with
their creditors. The trouble was pre-
cipitated by one of the local banks refus-
ing to longer carry So. 800 Of their paper.
Fully S16,0 900 In judgments was entered
up against them at Dover ia one day last
week, ~, ,00Oo which was an indemnify
ing bond.
The firm is composed of L. Moses
Price and William Lewis, two Of smyrna's s
promising young business men. They
have been carrying on the phosphate
business for several years, the factory
being located at Smyrna Landing.
The cause of the suspension Is the
inability Of farmers to meet notes which
they have given the firm for phosphate
and fertilizer supplies
1t is generally supposed that an exten-
sion will be granted the firm by its
creditors in order to allow 1t tfme to col
lect the money on the notes its holds.

treasurer secured money enough to take
up and pay the S3. 800 note aud had the

his own evidence. II the county credit
