Mr.. Wilson's Letter.

Acting Secretary Wilson. in the letter
to the President describing the activities
OF the Department Of State in carrying
out the Presidents instructions, says that
while the consular officers were engaged
in their investigations their attention was
drawn to the facts given by the co-opera-
the prices of the most necessary articles
Of food The reports on this phase Of the
subject were uniform in showing that
the members of the cooperative associa-
tons were feeling the universal increase
in the cost of staple commodities.
The consul general at London forwarded
q table prepared by the cooperative
wholesale societies which exhibited the
increased cost of certain articles in the
United Kingdom since 1898 From a sum-
that the per cent of increase in certain
trades from 1896 to 1910 was Ill and in
food prices 1875. The wages of railway
employesduring this period had increased
ampton reported that during the past
five years there had been an advance of
20 per cent in the purchase price Of fresh
beef. mutton, bacon, hams, butter, eggs.
fruits, tea, dried fruits, sugar, coffee,
fuel. tin goods, women's apparel, foot
wear. clothing. cotton goods, bedding,
furniture and underwear.
A series OF figures relating to general
groceries compiled by the Cooperative
Wholesale Society Of Manchester gave an
instructive example Of what the rise in
the cost of provisions meant to an ordi-
nary family. Taking the table as whole,
1t appeared that as compared with 1898.
the increased cost of living In 1910 was
| 1885 per cent.
All Show Heavy Increases.
The consul at Havre, France, reported
food prices in November, 1900. and in
| November. 1911. All these with the ex-
ception Of sugar, showed heavy increases.
The consul at Lyon transmitted q table

giving the average prices Of various food
commodities In 1900 and In 1911. Fish
twas the only food commodity that had

With reference to Germany, the consul
general at Berlin reported that living

JOE R0CH0N
IS CANDIDATE

The first political hat to be
tossed into the ring in county
affairs came about today when
Joe ROchOn the short term Coun-
ty Commissioner announced that
he is candidate for long term
County Commissioner at the COM
ing fall election. While it is the
first announcement, yet it is one
of the most important and also
one of the best of Carson citi-
zens who is taking an interest in
the affairs of progress.
Mr.. RochOn was elected last
fall to the short term commission
ership. He was prevailed upon
to run This year he is making
his campaign on record. Since
he with the other Commissioners
took the affairs Of the county into
hand many radical improvements
have resulted The county this
year will sail under lower taxa
ton rate. He with Mr.. Kitzmeyer
have refused to borrow money to
run affairs, and have insisted that
the county be run as his own
business, one for economy and
good Judgment. In this course
Mr.. RochOn has won the conf
dence Of all political parties and
the taxpayers in general There
is no question if nominated but
that he will be elected, as he is
the right man in the right place.
1t needs just such a business man
as Joe ROchon to look after the
interests of all.

: lowed on the heels of this state
ment. AS one of the original
contributors and the doner of the
largest sum Of the LaFollette
campaign fund, Mr.. Crane helped
make possible the senator's fight
for the republican nomination.
His indicated espOusal Of Cover
nor Wilson s cause is hailed as an
index to the sentiment among the
La Toilette followers.
Mr.. Crane was formerly an ar
dent republican. He was appOnI-
ed minister to China by President
Taft and on his way to his post
he was removed.
He afterwards espoused the
cause Of La Toilette, and his de-
cisiOn to support Governor Will
