A Letter from Liverpool That
Sounds Bad Tor Our People

Tho following is copy Of a cir
cular addressed by a leading cot
ton firm in Liverpool to its cores
pondents in New Orleans. As
they point out, If our people con-
template repeating the folly of
producing another 100000 crop,
they had much better buy the sta
pie in the Liverpool future market
where October deliveries are based
apon Al cents upon the planta-
ton:
Dear Sir-Our market contin-
ues to suffer from Neilps huge crop
estisnate Of 10 IA million bales,
which seems to receive confrma-
|tion from tho heavy movement,
and upon it Manchester buys only
from hand to mouth. And so
strong is the feeling that lower
prices will prevail for this and the
next crop, that there are free and
large sellers of cotton for 1896
1896 before a single plow has been
put in the ground.
The plice ruling, 8 3-16i, for
next October, is equivalent to about
4 IL cents on plantatlons-as we
call your attention to these figures
because we believe, that, if there
ever has been a chance to profit
by buying any commodity, SO far
as twelve months ahead, without
having to pay storage or interest
charges, cotton now affords that
opportunity.
1t looks to us as though the
South would buy all these new
cropfRt the prices "a 1-2 cts.) es
tabli9 ID tor them by Manchester
and I 9erpool speculators, if th'
theory 10 correct-tbat above quota
tions are below the cost Of produc
ltion. The quantity of these ne
crops daily sold wolld seem to in
dioate strong belief on the par
Of the sellers Of these positions
THAT cotton can be raised at mucl
below ruling prices, A 1-2 cents
on plantations.
Very truly,

Distressful Times in Nebraska.

The following from q recent
Lincoln (Neb.) dispatch presents q
picture Of privation and suffering,
by the side OF which the expert
cnce Of "hard times" pales into
insignifcance:
Dundy county has raised some
fine crops in its time and its pso-
pie have been as frugal as the
average community. But the
strictest frugalitv can hardly suf.
flee to carry a farmer over two al
most complete failures of the land.
There are two large bitches off the
Republican river at Haigler which
cost $500 and irrigates several
thousand acres. Near Benklenan
there are three or four small ones.
Upon this irrigated land were rails.
ed the only grain and vegetables
in tn" country. There is some
timber back from the river, to
which the people have helped
themselves for several years, al.
though it is private property.
AT least two or three hundred
families have left and the
deserted farm houses are seen from
every country road. Back in the
county, 20 miles Or so from the
railway, people are found who are
very nearly at the end of their
stock of ofprovisions. Fuel is much
needed and is hard to get, for COW
chips are not SO numerous since
the stock is gone. The pensions
drawn by the old soldiers here con-
stitute about all the income the
farmers, and living is more than
economical-it has been reduced
almost to the verge Of beggary.
But not quite, for these veterans
are proud spirited fellows, who
would sooner starve than beg. 1t
is hard, though, for the mothers
and children to live upon such u
fare as is in general use here.
Many have not much better
feed than the chickens or beasts Of
burden. The coarsest and cheap
est flour, and even bran in some
cases, is used. Meat is not to be
had, except in rare cases, where a
tqow or Il pig was saved Stock had
no be sacrificed and hogs and chick
ems have long since gone where
there is better feed, or have been
killed, Many of them died for
want of prope; sustenance. One
farmer met in town said: awe
are living in our part from hand
to mouth with the mouth away
ahead of the hand. l was hailed
out in 1892 and burned out in 1893
and 1894, and my s6 pension is

A Special to the PheniK Herald Unfavor- able to Governor Hughes.
 The following appeared in last evenings PheniX Herald as special from Washington. It sounds very much like a Cleveland fish story, and is given for what 1t is worth:
 A partial report from Special Agent Oliver. who has been m Phe- nix. Arizona, for the last five or six weeks Investigating certain charges preferred against Governor Hughes, has reached the interior department. The full report from Judge Oliver is expected soon. The charges against the Governor have not been proven. but pr. Underwood, who rep resents the Territorial Committee, W. T. Smith. J. l.. B. Alexander, and Ex-Governor Zulick, who are really the leading and most influential men of the democratic party of the terri tory. are so insistent upon the remov- al of Hughes that Secretary Smith has decided to make a change. His choice lies between C. Meyer Zulick, who was governor during Cleveland's former administration, and E. F. Kellner, a prominent bus iness man of Phenix, Arizona. NIT. Kellner took dinner with Secretary Smith yesterday and last evening they together with J. C. Underwood and Mir. Bonnet, the private secre- tary of Hoke Smith drove out to Woodley and had long interview with the president. The president was highly pleased with Mir. kell- ner and thinks he would make splendid governor and unite all factions in Arizona, but at the same time he does not like to appear to be ungrateful to Ex-Gov. Zulick, who he thinks is one of the rising statesmen of the Republic. w. T. Smith has been highly recommend ed and the president may possibly name him as a compromise candi- date. Zulick would prefer Smith to Kellner and Kellner would pre- fer Smith to Zulick. It would not be strange if Smith should be ap- pointed.
