THERE ISN'T ANY SUCH THING
The Famous Mocha Coffee You
Drink Is a Fake.

Persons who have consoled them
selves with the idea that they were
slipping a cup of fragrant Mocha after
dinner will be disturbed, or rather
perturbed, when they are informed
that there isn't any such thing IN the
American market as Mocha. There
comes here, to be sure, coffee from
Arabia that is very good and which
has been masquerading under the
name of Mocha; but the fact is that
the port of Mocha, which gave us
name to the coffee, has been closed
for years by sandbars. The pure 1000

Opposes Coyote Bounty.

Cecil, Nov. 1S.-[Editor Hepp.
ner Gazette: Please publish q
short article against the proposed
coyote bounty law.
1t is a moral fact and certaiDtv.
that our country will be overrun
with rabbits and squirrels if the
coyote is exterminated, and it is
another moral fact that these men
who are advocating the bounty law,
loose more sheep every year by
starvation than the coyotes kill
in 20 years. AS natural course
of events everybody kills coyotes
and they are kept under subiection.
[ notice the statement that the
woolgrowers' association is willing
to pay one half of the expense of
the bounty. They ought to be
ashamed of themselves. How much
more humane it would be if they
would spend their money in pro.
yiding the necessary feed and shell
