The Price of Coffee

American housewives may soon
feel the effect OF the recent sharp
increase in the wholesale price OF
coffee. AS a people, We consume
almost half as much coffee as all
the other nations of the world to-
gether. In most OF our households
ii is regarded, not as a luxury that
may be given up when It becomes
expensive, but as a necessity that
cannot be foregone without hard
ship.
The increase in the price is not
due TO the tariff, for coffee has
been on the free list since 1872 nor
is 1t due either TO a short crop or
to a suddenly increased demand.
1t is due TO a combination in re-
straint of trade-a commercial
monopoly peculiarly secure from
governmental interference, and en-
tirely indifferent to the railing OF
the consumer.

To Loyal Republicans

Almost a year ago the Democrat
ic State Committee caused judi
ges CAN'T and Timmonds and Prof
Gass, defeated Democratic candi-
dates 70 begin contest proceed
ings against Judges Brown and
Kennish and Prof. Evans, the
Republicans We triumphantly elect
"a last November by maiorities
obtained in st. Louis. That com
mittee assumed all of the expen-
ses OF such proceedings. II would
have been unfair for our State
committee to have allowed our
elected nominees to undertake
their defense against the proceed
!ngs without the aid of the party
they represent. They could not
have done SO, as the expense in
volvei would have absorbed their
salaries and exhausted their pri-
vate resources. The State Com
mittee promptly undertook their
defense and has expended a large
amount OF money in meeting the
issues In these proceedings. The
attorneys OF the Republican con-
testees have faithfully and success
fully defended their clients at
every step of the proceedings,
waving payment OF their fees,and
keeping the expenses as low as
possible. Many OF the bills in
Cured have been paid with money
advanced to the State Committee
from private funds, the total OF
all contributions having been, so
far, much less than the total ex-
penses. The Committee must raise
not less than $1,000 this month.
This amount car be easily col
lected II Republicans all over the
State will respond to this request
with remittance OF amounts as
they n afford to contribute. Send
your check or n money order pay

Brazil, which raises by far the
larger part of the worlds supply
of coffee, is the chief offender. A
few years ago an overproduction
Of coffee was followed by lower
prices and the decentralization OF
the trade. San Paulo, the chief
coffee-raising state Of Brazil. there
upon sought with the aid of the
government, to regulate and re-
strict the output for a long term
Of years by means of what is
known as "valorization.r
Valorization Is a system of max
ing loans to coffee-growers to en-
able them 10 hold back their crops.
For the purpose OF these loans,
the government obtained seventy
five million dollars from New York
bankers. Then Il made It's control
over the export of coffee addition
ally secure by laying a heavy ex-
port tax on all coffee i'm excess
VI WV diiiOhlli tudl IL anu llb part
ners-the American bankers and
importers-have agreed to put on
the market.
As a result, millions OF bags of
coffee are held In the storehouses
OF BRAZIL and New York, and the
price is arbitrarily increased.
To release all this coffee would
cause serious loss to the coffee
growers and to the holders of the
Brazilian coffee bonds, but II
would bring great Joy TO the con-
sumner, for the price would drop
amazingly low.
Some persons urge that a duty
be laid on coffee imported from
Brazil, 80 that coffee from other
countries, coming In free, may com

 These figures were secured from the annual reports of the county ex- aminers and county superintendents, and the state apportionment of the common school funds will be based on this enumeration. The apportion- ment of the school funds will be made next month by the state beard Of education, which will convene at the office of the superintendent of pub lie instruction.

HOPE IF BUMPER
 CROPS GIVEN UP
Cotton Has Suffered Serious Damage From Excessive
 Moisture.
LOSSES TOTAL IN SECTIONS
Rainfall Is Unprecedented and Corn in Some Localities Is Rottina
 in the Shuck.

Little Rock.-Reports from various parts of Arkansas state that the rain- fall has been excessive and that it's continuation without cessation has been unprecedented. All of the re- ports, with a very few exceptions. are to the effect that the cotton crop has been seriously damaged. and that there is no longer any hope that the crop will be a bumper one.
 It is claimed that the stalk is go. ing too much to weed, and much of II IS shedding it's fruit. From Greene county it is reported that the week Just ended has been the most unfa- Vorable one during the entire season. Cotton has been damaged, it is claimed, but corn is good and a large yield of late corn is expected. Early corn was practically made before the excessive rains of the past three weeks began, and late corn has not been damaged, is the claim.
 It is claimed that crops In the country of which Stuttgart is the DNAtNi hoNO nut pCtA udUldSeu. kOr0 Is doing well, much of it bidding fair to make 75 bushels to the acre. Rice is looking fine and a few fields will be ready to harvest in the next two weeks.
 From Lewisville it is reported that cotton is opening prematurely, and that the bolls are rotting before they can fully open. The cotton crop is greatly damaged in that section, is the claim. and that nothing like an average crop will be made.
 Army worms have appeared in the section around England, and it is claimed that the cotton is seriously endangered.
 It is the consensus of opinion, ac- cording to reports from all over the state that the cotton crop is men aced, and that nothing like the bump CT crop that has heretofore been ex. pected can possibly be made. On the other hand, it is claimed that corn has not been injured and that an ex- | ceptionally good yield is expected

Must Pay Back seo.ooo.

The general revenue fund will re- ceiye another hard jolt when the $90.- 900 borrowed from the sinking fund by the legislature the first of the year to pay the first expenses of that body is returned to that fund, which the state treasurer advises should be done. before the annual apportionment of common school funds. The money has never been returned, because, up until a few weeks ago the general revenue fund did not have sufficient money for that purpose The sinking fund is to pay the interest on school bonds amounting to about s35,0 ,000 each year, which sum is turned over to the sinking fund each year before the an nual apportionment. The money was lying idle In the treasury at the time the legislature convened, and was bor- rowed to pay the mileage and per diem, the general revenue at that time being in straitened circum- stances.

To Dispose of Farm Purchase, |

The state penitentiary board will very likely dispose of the additional farm purchase resolution at it's meet ing to be held the first Monday in September. Citizens of Lincoln coun- ty where the state farm is at present located, will make a proposition to the board for the sale of the upland section of that county. Governor Don. aghey is opposed to the purchase of another farm at the present time. He says the provisions of the Patterson act permitting counties to take con- victs out of the penitentiary to work on county roads is fast depicting the penitentiary and if many more coun- ties take advantage of the law there will not be enough convicts left in the penltenuary to work another farm. The governor says all the bids sub mltted for the purchase of another farm for the use of white convicts will be carefully considered by the board. He is not in favor of pur- chasing a hill farm, but if another plantation is purchased, he proposes to buy one situated in the valley re- zion of the state.
