A recent circular letter received by
THE HERALD from Thomas q Short, Lon
don, says of the hop outlook: "As re-
CARDS the probable prices for the coming
season, the market for English hops has
not yet settled, and therefore the prices
for American hops can only be assumed.
but we regret that the outlook affords no
prospects of anything but very moderate
values, and we think that opening prices
for American hops will be from seven.
d-a-half to twelve cents per pouea. for
qualities ranging from medium to choic-
est" The letter further states that 51l =
500 bales were thrown on the English
market during the season, while the con-
sumption OF the United Kingdom 10
usually computed ct only about O.O0o
bales per annum. While ID must be adj
mitted that a great many honA were
picked in England In 1894 which were too
poor for use and did not find market,
yet it 10 obvious that the above figures
tell tale Of over. production, and show
very good reasons for the low prices which
have prevailed, and the impossibility of
finding purchasers for all the parcels OF
even good quality hops which have been
on offer here.

English hop dealers are protesting
against American factors entering tho.'
particular field, II the following excerpt
from q letter recently received by THE
HERALD from q prominent firm In Lon
don may be taken as q criterion: 1--WE
must here refer to new depressing els-
ment which has arisen during the past
year. Some American dealers have come
over from the u. s. A. and have been
trying the experiment Of selling American
hops direct to English brewers, and their
easy quotations to the trade being made
Q handle Of by all brewers against the
English hop merchants, the latter have
been compelled to retaliate on the mar
kst by bearing down prices still lower In
order TO compete, and in some cases even
to undercut their new opponents. The
English merchants have at present the
brewers trade entirely in their own
hands, both for home and foreign nops,
and declare their intention Of retaining
~ Couc 0Aht May. m0huW bHc tuc tiSP1
which are thus made bone Of conten-
ton cannot but suffer seriously, both in
matter Of value, as well as Of position, in
the market. It's strongly contended in
the Borough that the few American hops
which have been sold to brewers direct
would have fetched more in the open
market in the absence OF the competition
which they have provoked. and that this
becomes very serious consideration
when its effects extend to the bulk Of
similar produce ON the market. It 10
also pointed out that those who engage
in the business Of providing for the re-
quirements of brewers, must OF necessity
act In the interest OF the consumer; and
as no man can serve two masters, 30, it
10 argued, the diverse interests Of pro-
ducer and user cannot be efficiently ham
died together. 1t is to be hoped, on be-
half OF the already impoverished hop
growers, that this fight over their pro-
duce may not be continued"

He is now engaged in knocking
balls for the Little Rock Gazette
twirler, and here is the way he hits
it.
THE Gazette, which, like Esau,
who sold his birthright for a mess
of potage, sold itself to the gold
bugs for a few typesetting ma
chimes, grows bolder as the days
get shorter, and says the silver
craze is on the ragged edge. In this
the Gazette is right, but it fails to
state that the silver people were
driven to the ragg d edge by just
such hirelings as itself, and finding
themselves so near destruction
have turned upon their enemies
and are lighting for their lives, Oh,
yes; silver is on the ragged edge,
but is steadily gaining a position on
drmer ground"
We do not believe the Gazette
sold out for those few machines
that are set up in Its Office, for
its rat labor is too cheap to be
fooling with them.
