Louisville. May 1.-THE receipts
of hogs were very light-1,307
head; for the week thus far, 1899
head. The market was slow in
opening this morning, as the de-
mand was rather slack, and prices
dropped dime on all grades.
Selected hogs, heavy, medium, light
shippers and heavy pigs, 80 pounds
and up, selling at s9.45; light pigs,
$S.45; roughs, 1915 down. The
pens were well cleared early in the
day and the market closed firm.
Cattle.
The receipts today were S4 head;
for the week thus far, 1,495.
While the fresh supply of cattle to-
day was very small. there was a
correspondingly light demand, as
there were but few buyers on the
yards excepting some local traders
and butchers. The market was
quiet throughout the day, with but
little doing in any department, and
no change worthy of mention. Fair
call for handy butchers at steady
figures. Medium and common
kinds dull. The feeder and stocker
market was quiet and unchanged.
Bulls steady. Gamers dull. Good
inquiry for choice milch cows and
good springers. Common cows
slow. No prime heavy cattle here.
Feeling about steady.

NINE PRODUCTS
Estimates BY United States GeoIog.
:. icaI Survey Place Value Of 1909
Production at $50, 200 900.
(By Union Associated Press.)

Washington, Jan. 29.-Although the
report of the mineral resources and
production of Alaska for last year
will not be issued until about May Is,
figures made available by the United
States Geological Survey indicate that
the value of the Alaska crop" for
1909 will be approximately the safne
as in 1908.
Close estimates place the value Of
the 1909 production at $2O,2OO,O0G.
practically the same as that of 1905,
which was $2O,139,272. The estimated
value of the gold output of 11O9 was
$1S, 100000; that of 1908 was $19,232,-
81S. The copper production of 1903
was approximately 100000 pounds,
valued at about $500, 1000; that of 1908
was 4,5Sg,362 pounds, valued at $6O2.-
267.
Probably the output of none of the
other mineral products, including sill
yer, coal, marble and gypsum, differed
greatly from that of 1908, when the
otal value was $244,1S9.
From 1880, when mining first be-
gan in Alaska, to the close of 1903
he total value of the mineral produc
ion has been, in round numbers.

mines have contributed about $751;

mines have contributed about $161,-
10000; the commercial value of tine
silver output has been about 81 200
600, and the copper production has
Ieen about $4,7O0,0O0. The remainder
is represented by the value of the out
put of coal, gypsum, tin and marble.
The placer camps of the Yukon ia
sin were the scene of much mining
activity in 1909. Two new dredges
were put in operation near Nome, ma
terjal progress was made in construct
ing a railway up the Copper River
valley, and some work was done on
the railway to the Matanuska district.
The most significant feature of the
years mining operations was the
amount of prospecting and develop
ment work done on aurificious lodes
in some of the placer districts.

bear out this argument. II the argu
ments we're true. if everybody is leav-
ing the country for the city, farm
products ought to show the greatest
increase in price, but from 1898 to
1907 farm products increased only 10
per cent, while metals increased &c
per cent, and lumber and building
materials So per cent.
The trouble is that high prices pre-
vail over everything, but the indi-
vidual producer gets his high price on
the one thing only that he produces;
while the trusts produce nothing, yet
rake of big profit on everything.
The Trusts, with their cold storage
plants, are to blame for the high
price of food stuffs; they and they
only. This wholesale buying up of
food stuffs and storing them away
until the necessity of the people COM
pei them to pay trust prices, should
be prohibited by law. A limit, and a
short limit of time at that, should be
placed upon the cold storage bust.
ness; and the Trust feature of it
should be radically destroyed. First
place, cold storage products are not
as healthy as fresh products. Second
place, the cold storage process, a good
thing in its way, is being used by the
money grabbers to corner the market
on everything grown or eaten, and for
that reason cold storage articles
should be legislated against.
No use to stop eating things; the
Trusts can starve the people out.
The thing to do is to vote intelligent
ly. The Republican party is the crea
ture and creator of the trusts. Kill
them both and set the people free.

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?

The Yazoo City Sentinel throws OF
the following danger signal. It ma
likewise apply to Hattiesburg, or
may not. If it does, what are 20
icing to do? The Sentinel says:
How would you like to have
negro come to your front door,
ring the door bell, and proceed
to interrogate your wife after
this fashion:
How old are you?"
How many children have
your
When were you married and
what is your husbands name?'
And lot more questions of a
similar import.
You'd think it the height of i'm
pertinence, wouldn't you, Mr.. Cit
izen of Yazoo City?
And yet this is exactly what is
going to happen to every resident
Of Yazoo City, unless some stems
are taken at once to prevent it.
A census is to be taken this
summer, and Uncle Sam has been
trying hard to secure enough
enumerators to do the work. The
policy of the Supervisors of the
various Southern districts is to
use, only white enumeraters for
the work in the Southern states,
except in country sections largely
populated bv negroes. It has
been recognized by the Supervis-
ors that in the towns and cities
it would be the height of folly to
undertake to do the work with
colored en1merators, and yet
The natural inquiry arises:
What are you going to do? The
government requires that the
census shall be taken, and there
b ore not enough white applicants to
NIL the places. Yazoo City owes
1t to herself and her future
growth and development to see
that this enumeration shall be
full and complete. This will not
be the case if negro enumerators
are permitted to do the work, be-
cause a large number of people
would refuse to give the informa-
ton to them, and the city will
suffer in consequence.
The simplest solution of the
trouble is for some patriotic cit
liens to volunteer to do the work.
The pay is ample, and there are
plenty of good white men well
qualified for the place. The as
signments will be made next
Monday, and no time is to be
lost.
Who will volunteer to do the
work?

Did you ever stop to think: The
people raise everything the trusts sell
from their cold storage plants. Why
not eat It while it is fresh, and save
the trust profit? That is the way it
would be II the cold storage people
did not buy everything up, not for
Immediate consumption, but to regu-
late and control the market price and
Az their profits at abnormally high
figures.

ENUMERATORS WILL TAKE TESTS FOR
 CENSUS
Examinations to Be Held in Eighty Places in Ari-
 zona Today

For the purpose of qualifying for DO. sitions of census enumerators, some thing like three hundred applicants will take the necessary tests throughout the territory today, under the direction of the census bureau and F. r. Towle, cen sus supervisor for Arizona.
 In this city, the tests will be taken in the office of the Gila County Abstract company, under the personal direction of Mr Towle.
 At other cities and towns throughout Arizona, the tests will be given by the civil service bureaus, where they are to be had and in the smaller towns, they will be given by the postmaster. h all, numerators' tests will be taken in about eighty places. in the territory.
 Supervisor Towle has mailed admis- sion cards to all of the applicants throughout the territory, informing them where the tests are to be taken and the hour at which they are to ap- pear
 The examinations in this city will probably be taken in several divisions as there are nearly forty applicants from this city who desire to take the test. About twenty can be accomo. dated and ample time will be given for the examination, which will consist of the filling out of a sample enumerator's s sheet, from a descriptive article of typical family.
 These examination papers will be col lected by MT. Towle and, as soon as the centre number has been received here from various points in the territory, they will be forwarded to the census bureau of the department of commerce and labor at Washington. The papers will then be corrected and the enumer. ators whose percentage is sufficiently high, will be given districts which they are to cover.
 It will probably require several weeks to correct the test papers of the prospective enumerators, as they will be received by the census bureau from ev- cry town in the United States. As ac- tive enumeration work is not commence until the first of April, however, the census bureau will have ample time in which to decide on the enumerators and assign them to their districts, before the actual taking of the census begins
 MT. TOwle has made ample provision for today's examinations and in look ing after the various enumerators he will have busy day.
