he had failed TO take out a license for

Il never was much good at remember.

On the other hand. II was maintained
that the animal in question was
very. very old-fashioned puppy, and
the magistrate inflicted the usual fine
Shortly afterward the farmer was met
by friend who wanted to know how
he had Jared at the police court.
"Nobbut middlin," was the reply.

He cut down most Of the apple or

A Hold-Up
An Oppressive Trust.

Before the Coffee Roasters' Association, in ses-
sion at Chicago on Thursday, Thomas ]. Webb,
Of Chicago, charged that there is in existence
coffee combine which IS 'the most moastrous in
position in the history of human commerce"
There is very slight exaggeration about this
statement. 1t comes very close to being literally
true. There is a coffee combine in Brazil, from
which country comes the bulk Of the coffee used
In the United States, which is backed by the gov
eTnment of Brazil and financed by it, which COM.
pels American consumers, as Mr.. Webb said, ito
pay famine prices for coffee when no famine
exists"
The worst thing about this is that the consum-
ers of the United States have been compelled to
put up the money through which this combine,
to further cinch them, has been made effective.
There were formerly revenue duties imposed upon
allcoffee entering the United States. Those taxes
were denounced as an imposition upon the people;
as taxing the poor mans breakfast table, and the
like. The taxes were removed. Immediately
thereafter Brazil imposed an export duty uponS
coffee up to the full amount of the former customs
taxes in this country. The revenue which for
merly went into the treasury Of the United States
was diverted to the treasury Of Brazil The poor
mans breakfast coffee continued to cost him the
game old price.
But this was only the commencement. The
'valorizaton" plan was evolved in Brazil.
Through this plan the government, using the rev.
enues derived from the export duties for the pur-
poses, takes all of the surplus crop in season Of
large yields and holds it off the market, thus
keeping the supply down to the demands Of the
market and permitting the planters to receive =
much higher price than they would otherwise
have done.
The United States consumes more Brazilian eOf-
fee than does the rest Of the world. We are the
best customers Of Brazil, and Brazil buys little
from US. Now Brazil Is promoting, financing and
maintaining trust designed, and working effect
lively for the purpose, to compel American con-
umeEs to pay an exorbitant price for the coffee
they use. What is the remsdyi-SeGttIs POst-Es-

CHAPTER xxx.
In WHICH We EIaht peath.

| remember distinctly enough the
first six days of that boat voyage; il
seems as if every detail was burned
upon my brain with fire. ! see the
faces of the men constantly becoming
more haggard and hopeless as they
stared, dull-eyed and aimlessly, out
over the endless waste of water to the
dun sky. We were so tired of it; II
had grown so hateful in its pitiless
vacancy, its dull, dreary void. II
seemed to me that with every re
curing dawn those within the boat
appeared older, grayer, more deeply
lined; their exposed flesh caked more
heavily with the salt spray; their
limbs cramped from confinement and
cold their eyes lusterless and heavy
with despair They conversed with
some effort at cheerfulness at first
figuring on the speed with which We
sailed, dividing up the treasure, count
ing the gold pieces, and speculatinl
upon their probable value. But de
preston followed swiftly as day
merged into day, with only that same
desert of tumbling waters stretching
about us, that same wild sky over
head. Finally the growing voicei
ceased entirely, the fellows becoming
moody and sullen, scarcely answering
even when addressed.
