DISTRICT SHOULD
 NOMINATE SENATOR
State Committeeman Says There Will Be Change In Senate
 rial Nominations.

Special to Independent.
 s Little Rock, Oct. "A. A mem- Der of the State Democratic Cen tral Committee who was ill Lit tie Rock Monday afternoon, stat ed there will be some radical changes made in the system of selecting state senators at the next meeting of the whole com mittee, unless the convention was stacked beforehand. He stated the people of the state are becoming so dissatisfied with the custom now existing of the two counties of the district al- lternating with a senator, that it will work a hardship on Democ-
 racy to continue it much further. This committeeman called at ltention to the bitter contests made in three districts last pri- mary. One county put out a
 candidate and the other was not
 asked to vote, it being claimed lit had no right to a voice in the
 selection, having been granted
 the right to select without oppo-
 sition four years before. In the general election which followed there was either an independent
 candidate or much dissatisfac.
 ton was expressed. Some Vcoun.
 ties are now putting out candi-
 dates for the next primaries, ,and
 claiming the other county of the |district has no interest in the outcome. It is the plan of this committeeman to have the en- tire district vote on the candi- date at each election and let men
 from any portion of the district vote on the men. This according to the committeeman, will guar antee to the people the right to speak, and insure them getting the best men in the district, as it is not so easy to pack the entire district, as it is one county.

SID H0O|
 MUST SERVE
One Hour In Jail For Allowing Murray to Escape and Is Re
 moved From Office.

Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, Oct. 24.The de- cision of the supreme court Mnh- day in affirming the sentence of Sid Houpt, former sheriff of Garland county, for the crime of permitting prisoner to escape, means that Houpt is permanent- ly removed from his office, and must serve his hour in jail and pay a fine of $1, with all costs o1 the proceeding. It also means that Governor Donaghey is call ed upon to appoint a sheriff o1 the county to relieve the in cumbent, who was appointed by the court at the time Houpt was removed.
 Governor Donaghey has re ceived number of applications for the appointment and has been called upon by severa prominent men of Garland coun Fly who desire to advance the in terests of applicants. Gov. Don. aghey will probably take some
 
 action in the matter before the end of the present week.
 Houpt was removed from office when action was brought against him for the nominal es. cape of Ben Murray, one of his prisoners. Murray was one o1 the men held for the murder of Oscar Chitwood, who was killed at the threshold of the Hot Springs jail. Chitwood was be- ing held on a charge of murder ing Jake Houpt, former sheriff and brother of Sid Murray was permitted to go about over the county at will being accompan- jed by an officel
 The supreme court held that the officer was not in charge of Murray: and had no power to dictate him, Murray doing as he saw fit. As he was thus not un- der custody, he was theoretically permitted to escape, for which offense Houpt was fined ard re- moved from office.

kinky Headed Babe Hulabal00. Special to Independent.
 Little Rock. Oct. 24. That poor kinky headed baby is now getting more attention than ev- CT in the North, and the letters asking for the communication of the sentence imposed on Earl Gilchrist, have begun to flow in ito Governor Donaghey. The Northern papers are even rum ming coupons again asking that they be filled out and sent to Governor Donaghey.
 The first real large package of letters of this nature were re- ceived Monday, and their nature indicates there are thousands more on the way. The North ern brother is doing all in his power to protect the hide of this s kinky headed youth, who claims < fo be 15 years of age and looks to be 20.
 Gilchrist was sentenced to hang for the cold blooded mur- der of another negro, and the tnpreme court recently affirmed is sentence. He considers the Etions of the people of the orth to be a good joke, and be- ges it will save him from the flows yet.

own race, and that he is depriv- ed of the satisfaction that came with the knowledge that most of his income was derived not from persons contracted to pay same, but from persons who volunta- rily rewarded merit and atten- ton on his part. 7
 This. colored man isn't to be classed with various others of his tribe in the north. The Pull man porter who has g good run between New York and Boston, New York and Washington, New York and Chicago or St. Louis averages considerably more than $10O a month in tips. But the fact are that these tipsl instead of being received from persons who voluntarily reward merit and attention" upon the part of the porter are really forced from passengers. It is practically obligatory upon ev- |ery one who rides in Pullman car to fee the porter before the journeys end.
 Men who have the hardihood to cave a restaurant without tip ping the waiter would not step from a Pullman car without pay ing the customary tribute to the porter. The porter does not rem der any particular service. The passenger pays for his transpor- tation, pays for his Pullman ac- commodations and for what he eats along the road. He may or may not tip the waiter in the dining car; he never tips the railroad men, not even the Pull man conductor. If he tried to the chances are these men would feel insulted, yet they render the traveller more real service than the Pullman porter. Only about once in sixteen times does the porter clean the passengers s shoes, and when he does so he usually leaves them worse than he found them. The brushing of clothes and hats is a farce. The porter's noisy manipulation of his long whiskbroom merely is notice to you to give money to him. It stirs up dust that pol lutes the air and initiates the throat; it does general harm to the unfortunate persons who are forced to travel and rarely, if ever, improves the state of the travellers clothing.

INCREASED COST OF LIVING.

A writer in a French woman's pa.
per makes an interesting comparison
between the cost of living for fash
ionable woman today and thirty years
ago.
IAN income of $4,000 was counted as
wealth thirty years ago." says the
writer "The woman who dressed in
the height of fashion paid anything
between $50 and $50 for smart frock,
while hat that cost as much as $40
was looked upon as an unheard of
extravaganza.
"The most elegant hats we're sell
dom priced above 80, and as for a
morning gown trimmed with lace and
ribbon, it might be had for $40 or $15.
The highest price given for an even
ing cloak was about $50, and if a
woman treated her friend at a con-
feetioners shop she would spend less
than fifty cents on chocolate and
cakes for both.
"A drive in the park cost less than
| ST. and carriage could be hired for
the whole day at So. Anybody who
hired a carriage by the month was
thought very rich, and those who had
their own were spoken of as million
aires.
Compare this with today. A sim
pie walking costume is priced at from
$50 to $12O. An inexpensive visit
ing frock will cost anything above
$3.50, while a really elegant morning
gown can not be had under $100.
fur cloak is not dear at $4,000, and ;
plain hat costs $40. Hats may run VI
to 5000 or more.
Most smart women have their owl
automobiles, while their less forum
ate sisters must be content with hiT
ing a car at $40 for half day. Aft
ernoon teas run into dollars, and al
together an income of $4,000 a yea
is, according to the Partisan phrase
just good enough to make $4,000
worth of debts"
A curious fact is that incomes %
$4,000 year are not now thought S,
very much of. This is true not onl,
of Paris, but also of London, st. Pc

and Frankfort, and the question

PRODUCTION oE TOBACCO.

The production OF tobacco in the
United States has increased remark.
ably each year. In 1910, 9S4,349, 900
pounds were grown, which was an in.
crease of about 100000 over 1909,
and of 301,920,O00, or about fifty per
cent. more than that grown in 1906.
Kentucky produced 1877 per cent. of
the entire tobacco grown in 1910 For
many years that State has been rails
ing over one-third of the total pro-
duction in the United States. The
states next in Importance in tobacco
are North Carolina, 10 per cent; Vir-
ginia, ~ per cent; Ohio, 7.6 per cent,
and Tennessee sc per cent. Despite
the tobacco troubles of the last half
dozen years Kentucky farmers show
disposition to grow the weed in aug.
menting bulk year after year. The
cut-out of 1908 reduced the crop to
195,OO0,00O pounds, but even in. that
year Kentucky's percentage of the
total productions of the United States
was 27.2. The 1911 Kentucky crop
will likely be less than that of the
previous year, especially in the Bur.
ley district, where prices are ruling
low. 1t is expected, however, that the
dark tobacco districts will grow about
the same acreage as in 1910. This ia.

States in 1911. The tabulation by
countries of birth for the 92,OOs,OO
people of the United States in 1910
has not proceeded far enough yet to
give exact figures, but Director Du-
rand bases his guess on the returns
for 1900, thus the net gain in the i'm.
migration and the emigration for the
past ten years, making a proper al
lowance, of course, for the average
of deaths in the interval.
In the figures for 1900 the Irish
stood second among the foreign in
gradients of the American population
There were $4,000 Irish-born per-
sons in the United States at that time,
and 2,669,O0O natives of the German
empire The natives of England,
numbering $4,000, came next to the.
Irish, while there were $4,000 Ca,
nadians here of English birth or line
age. The Irish immigration to the
United States in large volume start
ed little earlier than did the Ger.
man. 1t began with the potato fam
inc of 1916, and reached big figures
in the four or five following years.
The German immigration began to
take on large proportions in 1880,
after the failure of the rebellions in
Prussia, Bavaria and other German
states in 1S48. For the next thirty
years the Irish and Germans made up
more than half of the immigration
aggregate, but in more recent times
Italy, Hungary, Russia, and other
countries in Eastern and Southeast
ern Europe have gone to the front in
the infow.-St. Louis Globe-Demo.
