 Increase In Bread Price
 PRESCOTT-The price of bread has been ten cents for 16 ounces. The tak- CTS claim they cannot make a living at that price. Hence the price is in- creased to Is cents for IS ounces.
 The new price is five-siXths Of a cent per ounce against five-cights of q cent per ounce. The increase is therefore five twenty fourths of cent per ounce, or figured on basis of the old 16 ounce loaf the increase would figure three and one third cents per loaf. or an increase of one-third of the price of the old loaf.-Journal-M Miner.

THE NEwBERRY VERDICT

Some people are pleased that Sen
Newberry received a prison sentence
from Judge Sessions last Saturday:
some people are always pleased when
others meet with misfortune or re-
verse.
However, the milk OF human kind
ness is sweet in the hearts OF most
people and in all such the fact that
Judge Sessions found II necessary to
apply the fullest extent OF the law is
regretted not because Sen New
berry is rich. or holds high social
position or a high office but because,
underneath HIS wealth and his social
and Political standing. ne Is the same
clay as the average individual. has
the same pulse beats for name and
family, has the same aspirations to
so live that no such stigma may at
tach TO his name. Until Sen. New
berry was dragged into this contest
his reputation was umblemished; his
worst enemy will not contend that he
intended TO break the laws OF the
land in his campaign. therefore the

extreme penalty seems not to have
been warranted by attendant circum-
stances.
This Is especially true when his
case is considered in connection with
the entire campaign and the policy
persued towards his opponent. Henry
Ford. Ii is an open secret that vast
ly more than the law allows was
spent by Mr.. Ford's committee. in
fact II is claimed that the disclosure
of the committee shows more than the
$4,000 set as the limit in the New
berry trial. For the government TO
use its great power TO hunt one man
down and allow another TO go Scott
free for doing the same thing doesn't
look like fair play.
For these reasons Sen. Newberry is
the object of much sympathy.

RE-MAKE THE FORESTS

Under the above title appeared an
editorial In recent issue of the Chi
cago Daily Tribune. The fact that
the large dailys are commenting edit
.orilly on the forestry problem of this
country shows that 1t is gaining the
attention OF the public and OF promi-
nent men TO greater extent than ev-
err before. The fact that we are using
up our saw timber three times as
fast as IL Is being grown, is penetrat-
ing the minds OF American citizens.
They are beginning to ask where the
future supply OF timber is coming
from and they are beginning to work
on program OF conservation and re-
iorestation The editorial in part Is
as follows:
"One tree, put in the ground as a
shoot. ought 10 return 800 in twenty
years. This may be regarded as far
fetched economy. In fact, II is 100
per cent investment.
1T is 100 per cent investment be-
cause great acres OF cut over timber
land and poo soil are practically
waste In the central west. Il is 100
per cent investment because the sole
outlay consists in one simple act OF
setting out the young trees.
"The trees take care OF their own
