Meat Trust Cited.

"The methods of the meat trust"
they declare, seem to be admirably
adapted to taking from the consumer
and the producer the largest amount
that the traffic will bear. Their de-
struction of local competitors cannot
be improved upon"
AS to wages, they say that "the
fear that wages would fall if the tariff
were removed and the fall in prices
would not be clear gain to the con-
sumner, is not warranted by the ex'
perience of Great Britain. Great
Britain is a free trade nation, and II
is the most prosperous nation in the
world, except our own"

Britain adopted free trade and during

HUDSON PLEASED
WITH PROSPECTS
Believes outlook for Crops In Missis-
sippi is More Satisfactory Than
for Many Years.
Special to The NetDs.


Jackson, Miss, Aug. 17.-Attorney
General S. s. Hudson, who spent sew
eral days at Tupelo taking dispositions
last week, then went to the coast on
legal business, is enthusiastic over
conditions at both ends of the state.
Not only is General Hudson an able
lawyer, but he is successful farmer,
and says East Mississippi has the fin
est prospects for several years.
81 found East Mississippi happy and
prosperous" Said General Hudson.
''They have the cotton and corn crop,
and great Investigation. Conditions
could not be much improved, as they
seem to be almost perfect in that Sec
ton.
"Prior to this visit to the coast,
had not been there since 1895. In the
fifteen years since I was there the
growth along the coast has been to
me as marvellous as Jack and the
bean stalk.
with additional railroad facilities
to bring their pine timber to market
and settle their lands with agricul-
tural holders, it will make a great
revenue producing part Of Mississippi.
And with the proper encouragement
from the state governmental policy,
Mississippi should have the best and
most active harbor on the gulf coast. y
General Hudson thinks every effort
should be used to make Gulfport the
leading port of this part of the coun
try. He thinks it can be done, but the
, city needs the aid of the entire state
| in developing the port. Every ton o.
, freight shipped through Gulfport
t would have to pass through the entire
!. length of the state, from Sorth II
s South, thus beneftting the who'll
state.

Kinds Co. CROP
ABOUT The SAME
Despite The BOIL WeeviI, It Is Be-
lieved There viii Be No Falling
OFF in The Production.
Special to The Netos.

Special to The Netos.
Jackson, Miss, Aug. 17.-Local
merchants and cotton buyers state
that the crop in Kinds county will be
about equal to that of last year, and
that there will be no decrease in the
number of bales marketed in Jack
son, despite the fact that the boil
weevil is at work in this and adjoin-
ing counties.
That a majority of the farmers are
going to make fair-sized crop in
spite of the weevil is evident from the
reports received during the past few
days to the effect that an incessant
warfare is being waged on the insect
pest, and all forces are busily engaged
picking up and burning the punctured
squares.
Last season the wagon cotton mar
keted in jackson amounted to lit
tie less than 5000 bales. This city
has never been great market cen
ter, owing chiefly to lethargy among
local buyers and the activity of mer
chants in the small towns in this i'm
mediate territory. 1t is expected
however. that more aggressive
spirit will be shown by local mer
chants and buyers this year, and Il
is not improbable that the receipt!
will show a slight increase
