POTATO GROWERS
MAKE LITTLE
EVEN WITH GOOD PRICES THOSE
OF NORTH AND WEST HAVE
HAD TO PAY 1T ALL OUT
FOR LABOR.

w. A. OLeary, president of the
OLeary Produce Company. mas re-
turned from four weeks tour of the
west and north, much of which time
was spent resting on the banks Of a
wisconsin lake, but Mr.. O'Leary took
time to visit the Idaho, Colorado, Da-
kota and other big potato growing
centers
1.-The crop of potatoes is going to
be very good, and the prices are
fair" said Mr.. O'Leary after his re-
turn, "but the growers are going 70
make very little out of the crop. They
have had to pay it all out for labor.
They have been forced to pay as high
as 81 and So day, and no grower
can make money paying anything like
that for common labor"
Mr.. O'Leary saw the most scien-
tjfic measures applied to the digging
of potatoes, but this year machinery
has not solved the labor proposition
to the end that prices will be low

supply a greater portion Of the mar

ing the general movement for wage
increases. 1t is encouraging to note
the growing realization by the more
Intelligent opinion, that increases in
wages or shorter hours at this time
would result only in increasing costs
of production and would ultimately
aggravate our present situation py
further increasing the cost OF living.
IT is to be hoped that labor will ap'
rreciate the wisdom of patience and
self-restraint. and that the shopmen
involved in this particular controver-
sy will give a good example to thu
country at large in accepting the les
SCI and more reasonable pay in
ereases allowed them. With labor the
world over returning to work after
five years of war, we must of neces
sity soon pass the peak of scarcity
and high prices with an ever inereas-
ing production, and thus restore more
normal and easier conditions of life,
which will in turn, in large meas
ure, allay the present world unrest.
Regarding the progress of the crop
recent deterioration in many sections
of the Southwest is now giving much
concern. While conditions in west
tern Texas are fairly satisfactory, in
the eastern part the plant is making
rank growth, but frulting poorly. Rain
las delayed picking and greatly in
creased the activities Of insects, much
damage resulting from weevil, army
worms, ard boil worms. There are al
so reports of very poor conditions in
many other important growing sec
lions Of the Southwest and Atlantic
States. This is taken to forecast a
more bullish government report than
was anticipated week or ten days
ago.
Crop prospects in the near future
will probably exert predominating
influence on the market At present
the outlook is very poor and we pre-
fer the buying side of the market on
good recessions.

Who hasn't heard this query at this
season Of the year? We might also
add that the sorghum crop this year
hids fair to outstrip former years, and
II molasses kegs were problem with
{. short crop, why shouldn't the situa-
ton be serious now?
The answer to this question is the
Little Rock Barrel & Box Co. This
company has been in existence for a
year or SO, but until this season it
has not branched out into a concern
Of magnitude It is now in posi-
ton to manufacture and deliver On
short notice, barrels and boxes and
molasses kegs by the millions, if that
quantity be desired.
The factory is now running on ap-
pie barrels, molasses barrels and
kegs. and sweet potatoe crates. The
company makes all kinds of barrels,
tight or slack, to suit the customer.
They are made of all materials and
sizes. All Little Rock concerns
ship their products in boxes
made by this company. The har l.
ware houses especially require an
assortment of sizes, and there
is enough trade in this line in Lit
tie Rock to keep a moderate size
liant in constant operation. The Lit
tie Rock Barrel & Box Co., has no

COTTON LETTER.

The cotton market appears to have
lapsed into it's customary period of
midsummer dullness. Pending the
publication of the Government August
condition report, there is very little
incentive to activity, and transac-
lions have been largely in the nature
of evening up outstanding contracts.
Crop accounts, particularly from the
Southwest, have been distinctly un-
favorable; end there is a noticeable
increase in confidence over the gen
eral economic and political outlook
due to the more optimistic tone Of
Eress reports in connection with the
labor situation. These two factors
have contributed to modify bearfsh
sentiment and have created sufficient
demand from shorts to result in a
fairly substantial advance, giving the
market the appearance of greatly In
creased strength and stability. The
maximum advance for the week was
approximately $50 points, most of
which has been maintained at the
present writing.
The most important development of
the week was the announcement of
the policy Of the Administration as
embodied in the statements of Presi.
dent Wilson to the public and shop
men in dealing with the recent re-
quest of the railroad workers for in
creased wages. The refusal to meet
these demands appears to have been
generally approved nv the public as a
strong move in the direction OF halt,

STUPFNDOUS
AUGUST TRADE

There IS apparently no inclination
of the merchants in the Little Rock
territory to stay out of the market,
and dry goods, at least, are not I'M
ebtainable, as is shown by the August
business of the Doyle-Kidd Dry Goods
Company. This concern soTd practi.
eally 100000 worth of merchandise
during that month.
Little Rock was indeed busy mar
ket last month ard the stores were
all packed with anxious buyers, but
the Doyle-Kidd record probably
ec1pses anything in the history of
That house. or of Little Rock in whole
sale merchandising.
The Doyle-Kidd Company has made
q number of changes in the ground
floor sa1esrooms of the big mercantile
establishment The division walls
have been removed, and the passen-
ger elevator, which for years stood
III the center of the building has been
moved to one side, thus allowing
many additional feet of display room
Before the August rush the counters
in this portion of the building were
piled SO high with dry goods that
statesmen and customers could not be
seen in the isles. This has now been
reduced so there is an unobstructed
view of any portion of the room, but
vast quantities of dry goods still re.
main with which to fill the orders yet
to come.
I'VE can fill any kind of an order
that comes to us, in spite of the re.
markable trade says Mr. B. P Kidd,
secretary of the concern, "and we can
get it out on the day the order is re-.
ceived. We have been able to get
merchandise right straight through,
and if we need more we can get II,
| too"
Probably the most remarkable rec
ord that has been made by the Doyle,

Gillespie, veteran travelling salesman
for the company. Mr.. Gillespie, who
travels southwest Arkansas, sold dur
ing the months of July and August
S203, 461.57 worth of merchandise.
Mr.. Gillespie has always been one OF
the leading statesmen of Little Rock.
He is a very quiet and unassuming
man, but he has the knack of ferret
ing out business and holding his Gus
toners once they have bought from
him. This Little Rock jobbers and
manufacturers travelled through Mr..
Gillespie's territory on their second
trades excursion, and they had the
Ileasure of seeing Mr.. Gillespie in ac-
ton. He was first off the train at
every station, and the last on. There
was always someone at the station
to meet him, and he seemed to know
everyone. The best part of it all is
that all along the route the people
seemed to be glad to see Mr. GILES.
! ri, and as long as he has them in this
frame of mind there is nothing to
marvel about in his record.

In discussing the Japanese position today the Marquis said that their approval of the pre- liminary text should indicate suffi- ciently Japan's adherence to the plan
 He added that while Japan has re- served certain rights, like France and Italy, to offer amendments later the amendments will be confined to re. newed attempt to secure declaration against racial discrimination and perhaps a closer definition of the strength of the army Japan can main tain. Advices from Japan, he said were that the native newspapers gen erally favor the league.

Tn Discuss R0undarY,

Paris, March 3.-The question of the left bank of the Rhine will figure in the preliminary peace treaty, &C., cording to the Paris edition of the Londons>Daily Mail. In certain quar- ters, it adds, there is serious consid- eration sof the formation of an ihde- pendent German republic on the left bank of. thes Rhine. The allies, it; is said, would continue to hold the pres ent Rhine bridgeheads until Germany completed her indemnity payments.
 In discussing the indemnity regula- tions as fixed by the peace conference committee, on separations, the news paper says Germany will have pay a certain sum before the end of 1919 and the balance during period of from twenty to thirty years. The al- lied powers will decide on measures to supply Germany with raw material and the manner in which commercial relations will be resumed.
 All these questions, the Daily Mail continues, will be settled at one ses- sion of the supreme council after the return of President Wilson.

ASKED
 TO FORMALLY
 OPPOSE LEAGUE
May Prove Dramatic Climax
 To Congressional Session.
LODGE RESOLUTION
 MAY BE OFFERED
Petition Circulated at Capital Would Represent Position of Each
 Senator.

Washington, March 3.-A move ment for a formal expression by the senate of opposition to the league of nations constitution as now framed to provide dramatic climax at the close of the sixty fifth congress. Re- publican leader Lodge tonight pre- pared resolution proposing, first, that the senate declare that the present league draft be not approved, and second, that the American peace commissioners be urged to proceed immediately with the work of con- cluding peace with Germany Senator Lodge, republican, senators stated, probably would offer the reso- lution tonight. If unable to obtain vote on the resolution before congress adjourns, the republican leaders also ,ere prepared to file statement bear ing the signatures of a large number in support of the tentative resolution.
 Position of Senate. A formal statement of the posi- tion of senators on the proposed con- stitution of the league of nations was circulated for signatures tonight at the capitol. It was drawn by republ- can leader Lodge and others and set forth that the constitution should not be so drafted as to violate the Mon- roe doctrine or other fundamental American principles.
 The statement was presented to both republican and democratic sena- tors. Those inaugurating the move ment weer undecided whether to pre- sent the statement in the form of resolution and ask for action on it by the Senate or to merely make it pub- lie as formal announcement of posi- tion of the signers.
 Presents Views. This unexpected move by the re- ] publican leaders designed primarily as a means of formally notifying the peace conference and the country as to the views of many leaders of the new senate on this subject, followwed many hours debates of the league constitution in the house and brief addresses in the house. In the sen ate, the constitution was attacked by Senator Sherman of Illinois, repub- lican, and defended by Senator Me- cumber, of North Dakota, republi- can member of the foreign relations committee.
 After Senator Lodge had prepared
