OVER A MILLION
 ARKANSAS BALES.
Estimate Placed Upon This Years Cotton Production In This
 State.

AlCC1C 1eOCh, . u1y AO' AAAN ooe"sN of Arkansas will produce 1,10O,- GOO bales of cotton this year, ac- cording to estimates made by Secretary Geo. R. Brown of the Little Rock board of trade, from information obtained from the cotton-growing sections of the state. The production would have reached a million and a hquarter bales, it is estimated, if l the recent overflow had not killed out a large part of the cotton in the lowlands along the river.
 Secretary Brown received an inquiry from Theodore H. Price, a New York cotton broker, in regard to the conditions in this state, and in reply he made the following report:
 With 1OC as the standard of normal development, 90 is the present condition. There will be produced in this county five thousand bales less than last year, due to the Arkansas river overflow. The state will produce one hundred thousand bales more than last year, and but for the Arkansas river overflow the states crop would have been one and a quarter million bales. The crop is neither earlier nor later than last year, being about the same. The number of bales on hand in this county is about 8,2OO."
 Cotton men in this city now estimate that the production of cotton in the United States this year will reach 10,750, 900 bales, an increase of nearly a million l bales over last year. production The estimates of the crop during the past two years however, have proved too high, although year before last the estimate was only about 100000 bales above the actual figures shown in the report of the census bureau. ] Last year the total crop in the J United States. was 9,851, 129 bales, according to the census report, and the estimates made early in the season were 10, 150,- 900 bales. The crop the year be- fore was 10, ,630,945 bales, while the estimate was 10, 728, 900 bales. 'There is no question of great CT * national importance in my mind" said MT. Brown, ''than the cotton crop question this year. The conditions have be- come such that. short cotton
 crop has an influence upon all
 lines of business in the country. , When it is considered that the { south itself now consumes about , two million bales of cotton each year it can be seen what the de , mand for cotton will be in the
 entire country this year. There , is little doubt that under the present conditions prices will remain high during the coming :, year. .''

Nay! ye license people, don't throw up your hands in horror ! If it's right to license one evil, then any other sin may be justi- fled upon the very same. basis.

Is anybody elevated in any sense by the traffic :?

 But does it really 'pay"? Is a town really benefited by this curse? Why is Newport $2O, ,0OO in debt after having saloons for twenty years? Who can name a | ease on the criminal docket of the city or county that whisky didn't figure in the transaction? You can, you say. Which one? How many? What percent?
 No town or city can be bene- fitted by the revenue from the saloon business, I care not how you figure and theorize. God in
 
 heaven rules and He says: Woe to him that buildeth town with blood, and establisheth city by iniquity." When has blood been shed in Newport with no whisky back of it? Very rarely indeed.
