tons from last year
Refined For Export
) In part they state that the change in
| tone and the nav stimulation given the
raw market Is produced by an import
ant new demand for the refined pro.
duct to FIJI export orders. These export
orders required fairly free purchases of
raws by refners, even though the sales
made by them for export show declines
in tho refined values.
In addition to purchases of duty.pa
ing raws, there were quite important
purchases of free-duty Porto Rico CEN
trifuguls, amounting TO some 100, 900
bags ut 6.02c to 6.0Sc per ID. for spot
and nearby.
Cuban Conditions
Cuban receipts for the week are 49,.
All tons, against $4,000 tons for same
week last year. Exports continue of
good size, partly helped by the easier
tonnage rates, and amount to 03,2S2
tons total distributed 1898 tons to
Y. >. Atlantic ports, 9490 tons to New
Orleans, 1857 tons to Galveston and
81, $40 tons to Europe.
. Stocks in the Island are reduced to
799,97O tons. twenty-five crntruls were
grinding on the twelfth inst, having
finished their crop during the week.
Visible production is 2,767 1893 tons,
against 2,26g,7l8 tons produced to same
date last year and 2,3I6.223 tons in
l914. Light rains are reported from
some parts of the Island, while in other
sections rain is needed
Foreign Markets
Special cable from Batavia reports
exports during May, of both old and
nav crou sugars together, of 1900
tons to Europe and 10000 tons to East
ern ports, total of 10000 tons, against
total shipments last year in May Of
lO,7S5 tons and 3r,764 tons in 1914.
In May, 1915 and 1914. there were no
sugars exported from Java to Europe.
There ore now $4,000 tons jaws afloat
TO Europe.
Latest advices state that the French
government has taken up the question
Of labor shortage in the French beet
fields and that now all cultivators have
sufficient labor to take care of the
fields.
Refined
The feature of the week has been the
new demand coming on the market for
refined sugar for export
The local demand was small and the
foreign demand came at an oppOrtunp
time for the exporters, who were thus
able to secure supplies of some 25-3O,-
600 tons at the relatively low prices
Of 6.35c to 6.30c, and even, 6.25c per ID.
fob, in bond, the latter refined at
G.25c being furnished mainly if not on.
tlrely by second hand holders instead
of by renners.
This export demand, however was
not sufficient to restore the rnguln rity Y
OF the local refined market in the nb
sence of sufficient sustaining orders
from the trade.

PEACH CROP VERY SHORT
BETTER OUTLOOK FOR PINES

The market for canned fruits depends
good deal on the total quantity of
fresh fruits produced. The June crop
estimate Of the United States depart
mcnt Of agriculture is that the 1916 APP
pie crop will be about 10000, 900 bar
rels compared with 100000 in 1915,
and $4,000, 900 as u five year average
during the period l9l0-l4.
The pouch crop is estimated Mt only
10000 bushels, or $4,000, 900 bushels
less than last year and 100000 bush
els less than the fve-year average,
1910 to 1914. The size Of the peach
crop more than any other, affects the
price of canned fruits generally. With
small peach offerings some of the de-
mand will be taken up with pineapplcs,
which augurs well for the Hawaiian
producers.

A SIMPLE STATEMENT

The Herald and News stated some
time ago that we would be forced to
take off our list some of those who
have not paid unless some arrange
ment was made. We have not done
so up to this time.
The adavnce in the price of print
paper makes it impossible for US to
carry a large arrears list. We make
you this proposition: Any subscriber
who will send US $1.50 between now
and the first of July we will send The
Herald and News and the Progressive
Farmer one year. Another simple
statement is this: We shall regret to
part with any of our readers, but all
whose dates are in Arrears further than
1916 who do not send as much as one
dollar on the subscription by the first
Of July will at that time be taken
from our mailing lit. 1t is not mat
ter of choice but of necessity. We
had thought of writing you a personal
letter but that will take stamps and
time and the label on your paper
shows the date to which you have
paid.
Please attend to this at once if you
want The Herald and News continued.
1t is a simple matter Of business. We
must pay cash for the white paper
and the price is so per cent higher
than it was three weeks ago. The
subscription remains the same. We
nope yoa appreciate The Herald and
News sufficiently to comply with this
request. If not We better stop it. In
taking off names we will be no re-
spector of persons.
The president of our company. Mr.
A. H. Kohn, directs that we must col
lect these back subscriptions or take
the names off the list as the cost OF
white paper to send the papers would
be quite an item. And we guess ne
: is correct. But if you will send the

Yes. Know you want to vote, y
Pittman shouted at his opponents.
You'd rather do anything else than
hear the truth
Are you men who are willing to
hear women denounced afraid to hear
a man say something in their behalf?
l want to appeal to you to give your
sisters and daughters and mothers
the right to vote
Whats that got to do with this?"
chorused the delegates.
Finished His Speech.
Finally, ignoring lesser outbreaks,
and shouting aboye the confusion,
Pittman managed to get through with
his speech.
Senator Walsh of Montana then
took the platform and, in an impas-
stoned speech, swept aside the small
er questions which had been injected
into the fight, and told the delegates
that President Wilson himself knew
the plank was in the platform and
considered it essential to party vic
tory.
whatever your opinions may be, .
lie said, Eve shall never be anything
but discordant and divided party
unless we surrender some of our con-
victions to the wisdom Of majority
Here you are confronted, as one OF
our famous leaders said, with con-
dition, not a theory" The twelve
suffrage States represent ninety-one
votes in the electoral college. Every
POLITICAL party has made this decla-
ration in some form or other. 1t be-
comes a simple question Of whether
you will incur the enmity of these
women. There is no possibility OF
losing a single vote if you adopt this
majority plank, because every other
party has done the same.
tI ask you," he cried, eff you're go
ing to put a resolution in here that's
lie. You can't adopt this minority
report without stultifying your
sel7es."
Agreeable to Wilson.
Senator Walsh then explained that
the president knew about the suffrage
plank and added:
"He believes it vital to his success
that it stay there. 1 ask you with all
fervor of my being, who is there here
who is wiser or more patriotic than
he?"

not pay you in advance we will take
the chance of keeping your name On
the list until fall. If any one will say
that he is not able to do this and
wants the paper the editor will as
sumo the amount and send it on. We
are not begging you to do this or try
ing to urge you to stay with US. We
are just making a simple statement
which we must carry out. 1t is ne
cessity. We want you to remain il
you will but if you desire to remain
surely you will be willing to send the
dollar.
Mr. J. W. Lominick who is trav-

take subscriptions and to receipt fol-
them. So are Mrs. L. W. Harmon and
Mr.. E. W. Werts at Prosperity; will

Mr.. Walter Richardson at Pomaria;

would not be risking much just to en-
close a dollar bill in an envelope and
send it right along.

st. Louis, June l6-The Democratic

today by adopting the party platform
exactly as approved by President Will

committee, including the plank On

been disturbed with a row over the
suffrage plank.
No voice was raised against the Wig
orous declarations of the American
ism plank, but at one time it looked
as if the suffrage plank had been
lost. After Senator Walsh of Mon

President Wilson himself considered
it vital to party success, however, It
was voted into the platform, 1873 IL to
