cernlnir the outlook
"Tho hop market Is In very good
condition. In fact it is better, con
, Bldering the circumstances, than it
has been for years past. The stock
In the merchants hands as well as in
the hands of growers, is the small
est that has been known for the' last
thirty years. In England the mer
chants claim that they have never
known such a short supply In the
merchants' and brewers' hands since
1882. In the United States the brew
ers are living from hand to mouth
thinking that by playing a freeze-out
game they can depress the market
still further but they will surely be
disappointed on account of the very
short stock available. The visible
supply Is not adequate to supply the
necessary demand.Unless all statistics
fail this market must advance consid
erably. At any rate holders of hops
need not fear that the market will de
cline within the next ninety days. In
other words, the market cannot very
well decline but it might advance five
or ten cents per pound."

To the Editor: In the south a sto
r. u told of a darky preacher who
could not read or write but who al-
wiiva nald strict attention to the read
ing of scriptures. One time he heard
a preacher read from the pulpit, II
itfir where it speaks of "dam-1
nable heresies'. The darky mistook!
the meaning of the word "heresies,
htfh niPiina false doctrines, and !
thought that it meant "hear says", j
that is, gossiping stories. So, not
long after, he took occasion to go be-1
fore a congregation or people wuu
were notable slanderers and preached
a powerful sermon against gossiping
on the text "damnable hear says".
It seems to me that such a sermon
on such a text is really timely for us
in Independence. The easiest tmng ,
to do Is to gossip, and yet very few
things a man can do will accomplish
more harm. By gossiping, any inno
cent man can be made to appear like
a demon. Take away a man's gold
and he can. in all probability, gain
some more. Take away his property,
he can no doubt acquire other prop
erty, but take away his reputation by
"damnable hear says" and you take
away all that begets confidence and
prestige. In the light of the pros and
cons of the Leonard-Taylor attacks,
it seems a word of entreaty is suffi
cient. Why not be men and, all alike
try to keep our own counsel? Maybe
it . hon. hfnrrt is untrue. Let
w 1 1 a t, w c u.v. "
us not impute impure motives to any
iQao -arc nrove we are right
