THE COTTON PRESS EGToRIIONs,

While we have denounced the outraees
imposed upon our commerce by the tow
boat monopoly, the useless Larboymasters
and the close corporation Of pilots, an in
stitution has grown up in our midst which
promises to top them al in the enormity
Of its demands and its concentrated power
to enforce Them We refer TO the com.
bination Of the cotton presses. which has
just promulgated tariff Of charges most
singular in their gradations and SO e1tor.
tionate as to call forth prompt and Wig
orous protest from the ship masters and
their agents. The new tariff of the Cotton
Press Association is a fuctuatine one.
That is, when freights are high the charges
are correspondingly high. and when
freights fall they come down to lower
figure, but remarkably good living rates
at the lowest. It seems as though the
cotton presses claimed all the profits that
can be squeezed out of trade. while the
ship owners may work for nothing @. stay
away from our ports.
The ship agents and ship brokers of the
city me: the issue promptly at their meet
ing on Saturday. when they adopted the
following resolutions:
Resoiced. That the undersigned, steam.
ship agents and ship brokers. will, from and
after the fifteenth instant. take only com.
pressed cotton purchased here at a fixed
rate of freight. the charge of COMPRISING
to be paid by the shippers. and the quoted
rate of all freight engagements. unless
otherwise expressed. to apply only TO com.
pressed cotton.
Resclred. That in order 70 aid and facili
tate the bringing to this point for shipment
cotton from Mobile. Galveston. Memphis. or
from any Of the interior towns, shippers
from said points be allowed sixty cents per
bale for COMPRISING said cotton at the
original point OF shipment.
And the masters Of vessels laying at
Dur wharves waiting for freight mos: man. |
fully Endorsed their action. Now. what
are the cotton press monopolists going TO !
10 about it?
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1873-10-14

Governor, c. E.Whiting; judge of Supreme
Court, Benjamin J. Hill; Superintendent
Of Public instruction, Daniel W. Prindle.
A few constitutional anti-Republicans
will of necessity support this ticket, but
the great mass of the people are wise
enough to see that the true way to fgh.
monopolies is to do SO right in the ranks
OF the Republican party; hence the re-
election Of Governor Carpenter may be
set down as matter of course.
Very little interest centers in the election
IN Pennsylvania, it being only FOR
Supreme Court judge and State Treasurer,
the Republican candidates being: For Su-
preme judge, Isaac G. Gordon; for Treas.
urer, T. ". Mackey; and the Democratic
candidates being: For Supreme Judge.
James r. Ludlow; for Treasurer. T. W.
Hutchinson.

TEE REMEDY.

| The recent action of the cotton press
manag e1s in this city. in increasing thei1
charges for handling and COMPRISING
cotton. has been promptly me: by the
ship agents and masters OF vessels, who
refuse to comply with their demands. IN
this emergency the commercial interests
| Of our city are bound to suffer. and the
blame vii! rest upon the ,nonopoiis. ex.
sortioners. and not upon the merchants
and sailors.
The cotton press combination repre-.
sents several millions of dollars. 1t the
most wealthy and powerful! combination
that has ever cursed our city OF afflicted
our trade.
What is our remedy? There seems 70
be two ways OF circunven.ing the monop-
olists. One is an appea! to the Legisla-
ture. soon 70 assemble, 20 have the tariff
OF charges regulated by legislative enact
ment. The other is individual enter
prlse' which. backed by the city Council,
If its members are strong enough to meet
the issue. can destroy the power Of the
cotton press '.ring."
Let the City Council pass an ordinance
transferring the cotton landing from the
head Of Canal street to the Sixth District.
Let half mile of wha1ves be erected in
front Of that district. one portion 70 be
used by steamboats, in discharging cargoes
OF cotton and the other by sea-goinc yes.
sells IN loading up for abroad. lie. the
wharfage fees in tina. distric: be made one.
half Of what they are at the old city land.
ing. Then let private enterprise com. in
and erect cotton presses on the Sixth Dis.
trio: batture lands. The cotton can then
be discharged at one end of the wharf,
pass into and through the press. and be |
rolled out at the other end Of the wharf
and aboard ship. This will solve the
problem very satisfactorily.
1t has teen the complaint for years
Ina: the levee space from Delord street TO
Jackson square was not sufficient for the
proper discharge and receipt Of freight:
md this complaint has been all tie better
grounded since the railroads have come
Il front Of the city. spreading their tracks
'ver the ground heretofore Sc. apart for
reight.
III Of tina: portion O: the levee from,
ANAL street down to the steamship land
ng. in front of the sugar sheds. should
e set apart for the sugar trade. Let the
inding from Canal to Delord street be
wen to the Western produce trade. Both
f these interests are entitled to consider
ton. and should receive it from the City
ouncil. Let cotton go up into the Sixth
district, where there is plenty of room for
. In this way everybody will be bene-
tied, except the cotton presses in the
cart of the city. and it seems as though
ley have had their own way too long.
