SENTENCE IS UPHELD
supreme Court Holds Men Convicted in Alabama Peonage Cases
 Must Serve Term.

Washington, Nov. 30.-Cases from nearly all sections of the United States were passed upon in 25 deci- sions announced by the supreme court of the United States.
 Sentences of Imprisonment imposed on w. s. Harlan, Robert Gallagher. c. c. Hilton and s. F. Huggins of AL abama on peonage charges were al. lowed to stand as legal. These were the first convictions under the recent crusade of the federal government against peonage.
 Leaving to one side the question as to whether or not states may "gerrymander' their territory for con gresSional distrlcting purposes. inde- pendent of limitations by congress. the court dismissed for want of lurig, diction the appeal from an attack on an alleged "gerrymander" in Ken lucky. The court held it was without jurisdiction because the case con- cerned the congressional election Of 1908 and therefore the case now raised only moot question.
 That the surviving wife's share is community property, owned by the husband and wife, according to Cali. fornia law, Is subject to the inheri- tance tax authorized to be imposed by the state of California in 1905, was the effect of another decision. The widow of James Moffitt, millionaire of Almeda county, Cal, who died in 1906, began this action in the courts of California to avoid the payment of $26.000 inheritance tax. The case was brought to the supreme court on the ground that the widows constitu- tional rights were violated by the Cal. ifornia law.

TRAVELLING EXHIBIT
 STARTS ON TOUR

On account of the difficulty in making connections along the itinerary originally published for Arkansas on Wheels" several changes will be made, but the route covers practically all that was originally intended. From Brinkley the train goes to Mem phis and thence into southern Illinois and the return will be via Fort Smith over the Iron Noun tain.
 The best of the Arkansas school exhibits displayed at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition in St. Louis were loaned to the promoters of Arkansas on Wheels" yesterday and will be shown through the Middle West. The school exhibit will be very complete Most of the agricul- tural and mineral displays which have come in have been accom- panied by pictures of the schools, etc, of their vicinity. Reese B. Horrocks, secretary of the local School Board, has gathered sev- eral representative photographs of the Little Rock schools, to- gether with pennants, banners, etc, and Prof. Hammond of Hope has a very fine collection of ex- hibits from the schools of his town and will accompany the party. c. NJ. Stanley of For dyce, D. l.. Decou of El Dorado, A. R. Harmon of Judsonia and pr. Bond of Humphrey brought their exhibits to the Department of Agriculture yesterday ana will probably arrange to make the tour.
 Among the exhibitions receiv- ed yesterday was an assortment of fine Roman apple from k. M. Clark of Enders. J. G. Nordin ot Russellville wrote that he had 1000 bushels of Nancy Hall po- tatoes srmples of which will be sent to the exhibit cars.
 The Pullmans will arrive this morning, the train made up and at three o'clock this afternoon will leave over the Rock Island to Brinkly, where several addi- tional members of the party will be picked up. When the train re- turns December 10 it will be left on the tarck one day for the in- spect!on of Little Rock visitors.

CROPS AND BUSINESS.

Henry Clew's weekly financial re
view says:
For several weeks to come tn,
crops will be the controlling facto1
in both business and financial circles
AT present the outlook is not emin
emily satisfactory. The country need
ed, more than anything else, bumper
crops. Only one crop promises tc
reach expectations, and that is corn
The condition of cotton is exceeding
ly low, and the present outlook sug
gests crop of not more than $4,000,
900 bales, which is inadequate for the
worlds requirements, considering last
years shortage. The output OF wheat
seems to be better than at one time
anticipated, but at best nothing more
than a full average crop can be count.
ed upon. According to present indi.
cations, the farm value of our cereal
crops, based upon the latest govern.
ment estimate, should be about $4,000
100000. This is slightly in excess of
the actual farm values reached last
year, and is due almost entirely to the
promising outlook for corn, the only
important crop promising a record
yield. There is much encouragement
in the fact that this all-important crop
looks so we'll. Roughly speaking, it
amounts to about one-quarter of our
total agricultural products, and enters
into so many departments of COM
merce and industry that it is by far
the most important single element in
our national prosperity. Should we
raise 3,OOO.OOO,O OO-bushel crop,
worth about s2,GcO,OOO,OOO to the far
mers, this will do much toward check
ing any serious business reaction. On
the other hand, even partial failure
of the corn crop might invite serious
consequences. Another four to six
weeks must elapse before corn is
fully made. Fortunately, the latest
reports are very favorable for big
yield. Wheat, too, has been showing
marked recuperative powers from pre-
vious damage. All things considered,
the crop outlook is mixed and might
look better; but still contains some
features of positive encouragement.

In congressional as in presidential
canvasses the democrats are usually
strongest in the early stages Of the
speechmaking. If the election of 1872
had been held around the middle of
July instead of in the early days of
November, Greeley would have been
elected in place of Grant. In the con.
gressional campaign of 1902 the demo
Gratis began in August to select their
candidate for speaker of the new
house. Republican defeat, as they
viewed the situation, was so certain
that preparations for the celebration
were completed long before the vot-
ing day arrived. All the celebrating
that was done, however, after the
election, was done by the republicans.
The democrats in that year attributed
the republican victory to President
Roosevelt's Intervention in the anthra-
cite strike. which brought peace be-
tween operators and miners just be-
fore the election. On the morning of
November 3, 1910, the democrats will
probably say that the republican VIC
tory of the eighth was due to the
good crops, the national prosperity
or to something else than the repub-
lican party's excellent record, it's
creditable candidates and it's habit of
keeping it's pledges.
