VENTURA, Feb. IA fine point, which
the title of every hold-over Official in
the state, WAS brought to the attention
of the supervisors today on motion
made to vacate the office of justice of
the peace for Ventura township. The
complaint states that as hold-over
county official the justice failed to file
a new bond and take his oath of office
at the beginning of the present term.
This case grows out of an order made
by the supervisors prior to the last
election ordering that but one justice
of the peace should be voted for in
each township. This order was set
aside by Judge Cope of Santa Barbara,
before whom the case was tried.

Produce markets have been the theater
Of surprising changes. which have in
fluenced all business. The acreage in cot
ton was wisely restricted in order to give
producers better chance for fair returns,
and the crop was further reduced to some
extent by injury, but growers were in
jnred still more by frantic speculation.
which checked exports. and by false infor-
nation and advice.
Wheat producers suffered in like mar
ner from wild speculation, which pre-
vented the exporting ot many million
bushels, anu false reports which encour-
aged farmers to keep back their grain un-

sequence has heen a very low range OF

been materially affected by speculation in

mendous advance, with a rush to buy far
exceeding the ordinary demand for con-
sumption. even when swelled by replen-
ishment of stocks after two years enforced
depletion. Prices rose beyond all reason
exciting still more the anxiety to buy be-
you'd actual needs. Thousands of pro-
duccrs strangely mistook the extraordi-
nary buying for vast increase in con-
suming ability, and extended plants,
opened mills increased force and pushed
production in many lines far beyond ac-
tual coHsump ion.
Inevitably both traders ard manufac-
turers were left toward the close with con-
siderable stocks unsold, and claims against
customers who were themselves tied mp
by purchases beyond their distributing
powor. Hence the general shrinkage In
