Humors of the Market.

The farmers get together and talk
and laugh over their peach returns,
the more ridiculous and bigger the
loss the heartier the laugh. 1t was so
different from what was expected.
Last week was the worst of all, and
Thursday and Friday the worst of the
week-pOsitively bad A large num-
Der on those days did not get enough
to pay for the baskets, while some not
only lost the baskets but had to send
money to pay freight charges. One
shipper who sent HOO baskets of
splendid fruit to Boston received a
check for less than $50, and for go
baskets sent to Providence, he had to
send 1913 to pay expenses above sales.
Shippers to New York received as low
as two cents basket, and man who
was in Philadelphia to buy baskets
was offered large lot of peaches and
baskets, if he would take them together.
but as he was only after baskets he
couldn't accept the offer at 6 cents.
We are glad to say however that the
glut is over, the most of the crop being
marketed and the returns are better
this week.

Town Affairs

The Board of Health was called TO-
gether last week to take into consid
GRAFTON several minor complaints
mainly offensive pig pens, the owners
being notified to ahate the nuisance
within q specified time or abide hy the
law in such cases provided. The ques.
tion of general drainage came up inei-
dentally. At meeting in the early
summer the Board of Health petitiOned
or rather called the attention of the
Town Commissioners to the bad drain
age and collection of water on the east
ern limit of the town, that could be-
scarcely otherwise than preiudicial to
health, to say nothing of comfort,
There has been no official recognition
Of the action of the Board of Health by
the Town Board, so far as they are
aware, some of them thinking IL might
at least have been acknowledged.
The matter of our drinking water
also came up, the opinion of the medi-
cal men of the board being that the
using of wells for sinks and drainage
resorts by certain parties who had in
trOduced town water in their houses,
was calculated to contaminate the water
that ran into the reservoir at the
water-wOrks, and therefore highly
reprehensible. The springs that sup
ply our wells are the same that supply
the town water, and all dlth that finds
its way into them BY forsakep wells
must to a certain degree be felt
throughout the system. This is a
thing that all the consumers of the
town water should strongly protest
against, and induce the authorities to
take it in hand.

EMPEROR WILLIAM of Germany, OBJ
servant of the increase of drunkenness
among his people, has resolved to take
some measure, if possible, at its repres-
sion. The emperor would seem to be
in earnest or he would not urge such
q bill on the Richstag. The measure
provides that retail liquor dealers
must supply food, besides spirits, and
are forbidden to sell liquor to persons
under sixteen years of age They
must not serve a visibly drunken per-
son or one who is known to be a con-
frmed drunkard.
They must see that drunken persons
are guarded to their homes or prOtee-
ted by the police, and must not supply
liquor on credit. The most drastic
clauses of the bill provide for the for
chile eOmmittal of confirmed inebriates
to an asylum, for the keeping of pub
lie houses closed until O'Clock in the
morning, and fixing the minimum
quantity of spirits to be sold at half a
litre.
1t is not expected that the govern
ment will persist in passing the bill in
its integrity. If the government can
get measure of kindred nature to
those accepted by the countries where
there are temperance reforms it is GER
tain that the Emperor will be satisfied.

The Basket Qnastinn

The basket question is no longer the
burning question" it was a week ago.
1t grew in Importance each day as the
farmers began to run short, the factory
was sought in dozens by teams, taking
their turus with half or quarter loads
or less. Then cent was put on the
regular price, the hot weather ripened
the fruit on the heavily ladened trees
beyond calculation making the de-
mand more impOrtunate. Then cent
a day for Tuesday and Wednesday
each was put on with the fact staring
the farmers in the face that there was
no assurance of any limit to this ad,
vance, but the collapse was almost as
| sudden as a "clOud burst" Men
whose returns were in some cases less
than the price of the baskets. but
| afraid TO lose market or they might
rue 1t, cursed and fumed and declared
in words, too emphatic to print here.
about not buying any more from that
source. Happily for such men the
corner" was knocked into "smither.
Gems" on Wednesday night, for Thurs
day morning between the boat and the
cars, baskets could be had by the tens
of thousands.
From this time on the mill gates
might as well have been locked. for
the demand there was for entrance to
load up with baskets. In the mean
time huge loads were seen moving in
all directions from the boat and cars.
and the glum look on the farmers
faces had changed to triumphant
smiles-there was no longer a dearth
in baskets or necessity for the fruit
falling to the ground. 1t fell like a
chilling blast on the ascending mer-
curry in a thermometer, sending the
price at the first movement from 8 to
g cents, and we do not know how
much since, for all the inquiry since
has seemed in the direction of the re-
turned empties. So far as we have
heard the price at the basket mills
down the state did not get beyond 6
cents though there was heavy pres
sure on them.
This simultaneous throwing on our
market of nearly 100000 baskets in the
space of twenty-four hours, though a
surprise all round, was the result of
natural causes put to work, Seeing
there was steady rise with no limit
fixed, the shippers wrote to their com
mission men, put the telegraph to
work, sent agents and not few went
to the cities themselves, with the re.
suit as above stated-basket galore
and no thanks to the basket makers.
If the fruit had been bringing from one
to two dollars a basket the advance in
the price of baskets might not have
raised such "hubbub," though taken,
probably, with wry face. It will be
strange If the growers do not attempt
a better adjustment of the gift bas-
ket" question with the commission
men before another crop.

SECRETARY RUsK expresses the
opinion that we will have our pork on
the European markets in a very short
time. Everything is favorable for our
packers to place their products before
the Europeans, and the prices the pork
will bring will be highly satisfactory to
the exporters.
The small crops of cereafs~ in the
European countries and the financial
troubles y GREAT Britain will necessi-
tate, he thinks the admittance of our
pork, as it will be cheaper than any OF
it there is now, and the result will be a
much larger sale of our products than
ever before, not only of pork, but OF
other articles of food as well.

THE civil war in Chill which com
menced over half a year ago was
brought TO a sudden termination last
week by the overwhelming defeat of
Balmaceda's army and the flight of
the usurper. To have been otherwise
would have been a shame on a liberty
loving people. Balmaceda's loss is
stated at 5000 and that of the victor.
ious insurgents at 500. The causes
leading to the revolution are thus sue.
cinctly stated:
Theirs was rebellion against un-
constitutional usurptiOn of power bv

hglDle for reelection, determined to
continue himself virtually in power
and incidentally to enrich himself, by

who should be a mere tool ia his. Bal

lous ministry, which, refusing TO resign.
was forced by the popular indignation

worse; there was a deadlock between

ministry was named aud resigned
Balmaceda finally summoned fourth

dictatOrial authority. The courts de-
ciared bis acts unconstitutional; he
closed the courts and imprisoned the
judges. Nothing remained but sub
mission to his dictatorship or an appeal

The result of this civil war will be
most important owing to the leading
position Of Chill among the republics
of South America. The victory of the
Congressional party has been followed
by the speedy occupation of the capt
tai and the collapsed the Dictatorship.
Millions Of treasure have however
been squandered in the contest, but
the people though in debt, have
the satisfaction of knowing that they
have the liberty of self government.
