tions in many respects. None of these is more pronounced than that of providing habitations for the peo- pie.
 The condition Little Rock is acute. There are no houses for rent, and many new corners are forced to build in order to get a home in which to live. There is considerable building in Little Rock despite the high cost of labor and all material entering into construc- tion. But the building does not keep up with the demand. It was thought that after the war these con- ditions would no longer exist, but if possible, there are more demands now than during and before the war.
 Just where the people are coming from and what they are doing is not apparent, but they are here, they are all busy, and have more money than ever before.
 The situation would not be so in- explicable if it were confined strict ly to Little Rock, but it is said that practically every city and town in the state has the same condition to contend with. Houses are all filled, residences are in demand every where, and hotels are crowded. There is also more travel on the railroads than before the war. The farmer, the merchant, the me chanic, the professional men, and the laborer, all have more money than ever before, and they are spending it freely.
 Which brings up the question of the high cost of things. The price of all commodities is high-higher than ever in the history of the coun- try, ,and many of them are going higher. But, strange to say, the peope are demanding the best in ev- cry line, and having the money, are willing to pay for it..
 There are good serviceable shoes that can be bought for $5 and $6 but the laboring man who is making 60 cents an hour, or the carpen-

LITTLE ROCK LETTER


 l Little Rock, Oct. 13.-It is an in-
 nesting fact that it is provided by
 w in Arkansas for about $500 hIe of improved highway.
 In view of the shortage of labor hd the high cost of material, this resents a most important ques- Ion for the consideration of those |ho are looking after the building
 these roads.
 t has been stated that it will Ike l4O men IA days to build one Ge of road.
 twill take l50 men 8 1-2 months

 t will require 23,400 men 8 1-2 P0nths to build 2500 miles now un- G contract. And 1t will require 79,560 men 8
 months to complete the $500 nls now under contract.

IS expressed by the prohibition forces of the state that here will De a reversal in the present in stance.
 The liquor interests are endeav- bring to defeat national prohibi- ton by securing the reversal by popular vote of the ratification in at least ten of the forty-five states that have ratified.
 There are fifteen referendum states in the Union, most of them Tn the west, where prohibition sen- tlment IS strong, and it is incon- celvable that even if it is forced to referendum that the action of the state legislatures would be re- versed.
 The Federal Land Bank of St. Louis has loaned more money on Arkansas farms than it has on the farms of Illinois or Missouri It has made more loans in Arkansas than in the states of Illinois and Missouri combined, having 4,274 in Arkansas and 1,496 in Illinois and 2,331 Tin Missouri. There are now pending applications for nearly 500 loans in Arkansas, which have been approved, aggregating $1,280,200.
 Loans are not confined to any class of land in Arkansas. All the facilities of the bank are extended to the hill farmer as we'll as to the farmer of the more productive sec tions of the state. The bank does not discriminate against either class, but is glad to render all classes any possible aid which would be justified under the farm loan act.
 All loans are made through na- tional farm loan associations, one or more of which have been organ ized in every county of the state with the exception of Izard and Fulton.

I ter or brick mason who is making S1.25 an hour demands the best and is willing and able to pay for it. Therefore, he passes up the $6 shoes and pays SIG for the best. The same is true of clothing and food products, in fact, of every thing that enters into our living ex- penses.
 The answer to the whole problem is that the buying value of the dol lar is greatly depreciated, and that there is shortage in the production
 of most staples.

 Much interest is being aroused l over the state in the proposed plans for the Arkansas Division of the l American Cotton Association. It is proposed to bring. together the rep resentatives of the cotton-producing, mercantile and financial interests of the state in cooperative organ ization. A state convention has been called for Wedinsday, Oct. 29, instead of Oct. 22, ,as originally an- nounced. A delegation consisting of three farmers, one banker, and J one merchant has been named for each county, and responses are al ready being received, indicating that there will be large and repre- sentative attendance.
 It is to be a sort of cotton clear ing house, designed to conserve the interests concerned in the growth of cotton and the marketing of same. Information bearing upon all branches of the business will be gathered by experts and dis ested. With an organization ex- tending from the central office, down through the state, county. township and school district branches, there should soon be a man power of million who are in terested in the better methods of ginning, baling, weighing and standardization of cotton for the market, the more uniform and sensible marketing of the crop, and the financing of it. The question of price is left entirely to the law of supply and demand, but with these conditions provided for, the prices commanded by the cotton of the South will be such that they will represent a jast profit to the grower.
 The association has already grown to notable dimensions in several states, there being 56,000 members in Georgia, 25,000 in South Carolina, and 1S,,000 in North Carolina.
 It is to be kept carefully out of politics, and is to be managed strictly by those who are interested in the proper marketing of the South's greatest staple.
 The eyes of the prohibition and the anti-prohibition forces of the country are on the Arkansas Su- preme Court.
 The question is whether a fed eral amendment to the constitution is referable to the people under the initiative and referendum pro- vision of the state constitution.
 Up to the present time the score is tied with the supreme courts of the states that have passed upon it. The courts of Maine and Ore gon have held that the ratification of a federal amendment is not subject for referendum. The su- preme courts of Washington and Ohio have held that it is subject to a referendum.
 The question is before several other states, including Arkansas. The attorney general here is en- gagged in the preparation of the brief in the case, which IS to be submitted soon. All court decisions in Arkansas have been favorable to the prohibition cause. and no fear
