Letters To The Editor.

Memphie, Tenn, Aug. 8, 1910.
Dear Uncle Mike:
| take note that our
growers and dealers of Rural Retreat
and adjoining points are getting togeth
er for their mutual protection. as to get
ting the real market value for their pro
ducts, by agreeing that the grower sell
to the dealer at a certain price and that
the dealers all quote the same figure for
stated time. This agreement is not
carried out at this market by all. Cab
Bge was sold here yesterday at from S.
to $40 per ton. have been here for sew
eral days and am in a position to say
Memphis would have taken just as much
cabbage from Virginia at sos f. 0. b. Ru
raj OF possibly Coo as at 40 and 40c, at
which time it is now beng offered by
some merchant dealers. Memphis had
several Thousand crates. home grown, on
cold storage, so cabbage at any price
was no inducement to these dealers till
they cleaned up the present stock. l
think in ten to fifteen days all will be
pretty we'll out, and if the growers will
unite SO as to make the shippers hew to
the line, and stop this unnecessary
throat cutting business, there IS no
reason why this will not be one of the
best years Virginia has ever had to have
things going her way From all reports
most cabbage sections are short because
of wet weather in the early spring and
dry weather preventing now; those
causing many more markets to look to
Virginia for their supplies, this year.
Virginia is the only point that has ship
ped cabbage here yet, 1t has been
coming in nice and fresh aud to the en-
tire satisfaction of the buyers. Menu
phis prefers our cabbage to that of any
other section at the same price and SO
does all other markets. A great many
markets will give Va, the preference at
an advance over other sections. But ii
BUR growers do not unite themselves to-
gether, to take advantage Of sure op
portunity that lies before then, and cut
business entirely out Of the hands OF
the hands of those dealers who are de-
noralizing the markets they will loose
thousands this year. Why sell to ner
chant who pays you these days dollar
III trade (not dollar cash) and who is
constantly faring the market down.
Actually fighting the very interest of
those upon whom he is dependant for
business. IL one man can get soc here
why can't all get ltf But it some sell
at 40c all will likely have to meet it. So
get busy, form organization, and as
often as conditions will justify advance
the price. Everything is in favor of
Virginia this year, except few cut
throat dealers. 1t is hard to say just
how much a market will bear when
some dealers are showing how little they
will stand.
II hape4tU see our situation remedied |
ut once and markets put in a healthy
condition.
Very Respectfully,
Boyd G, Etter.

Arrested for Kidnapping

Tuesday afternoon Mrs. Clarence E.
Sample appeared at the home of Mr..
and Mrs. Robt. Baker, of this city. and
demanded the possession of the 5-year-
old Sample girl that had been left in the
care of the Bakers. Mr.. and Mrs. Sam
pie have had domestic trouble and had
not been living together for some time.
The father had custody of the child
through an order OF the Superior Court
of Spokane county. Mrs. Sample took
the child to Spokane on the Ala train,
but was arrested by Spokane officers at
the o. R. & N. depot on the arrival OF
the train, charged with kidnapping.
Mr.. Sample and Marshal Jenne went
to Spokane Wednesday morning to bring
the woman and child back to Newport
It was thought best to have the case
tried in Spokane county. where the
original order relating to the child had
been issued. This morning Marshal
Jenne received word from Capt. Sample
that the court had denied his right tc
keep the child.
