Old World War Clouds.

Probably the present comes as nearly
being an era OF universal peace as there
! has been for a long tine. Not single
I war OF any Importance is being prose-
cuted in the civilized world. and. so far
as known, comparative peace prevails
In the semi-cVtlIzed and savage portions
Of the world.
Il 5 not probable, however, that this
will continue very long. Little war
clouds seem to be forming in various
quarters, and the threatening condition
OF affairs in Europe rs beginning to at
tract universal attention. The much
talked OF and little understood in this
country Eastern question seems 10 be
further taan ever from a tisfactOry and
permanent solution. and unless con servs-
tive counsels prevail 1t may not be very
long before the great powers will be en-
gagged in one Of the greatest, II not the
greatest, Of the wars OF modern times.
Russia, it seems, has carried its men
aces against Bulgaria to that point where
1t cannot recede without sacrifice OF ma
tional pride. On the other hand should
Russia endeayor TO use force to secure
the acquiescence OF the liberty loving
principally In It's views, it is almost GER
tain that it will have to fight, not only
the Bulgarians, but the Turks, English
and Austrians besides, not to mention
some OF the other little Danubian king
doms and prIncipalities, that would proba-
bly, Join IN the war. This being
the case, Russia must hesitate
before committing itself to policy that
m ght result in it's Illumination aud event
ual downfall. There appears TO be no
great power on which Russia could rely
for assistance in case Of war. About all
that could be expected of Germany is
that it would be a mediator, and exert its
influence to patch up new treaty that
might postpone the rupture that now
seems almost inevitable for a few years
longer.
There are indications that the mutually
and constitutIonally hostile feeling be-
tween the Germans and French increases
rather than moderates. The diplomatic
relations between these countries are
nominally friendly, almost cordial, but
there is no love lost between them, neither
among the ruling classes nor the m asses
Of the people. There has been great
deal of war talk of late, especially in
France, but there is reason to hope that
there Will be no breach of the peace in the
near future.
or the minor war clouds. the most no.
tIceable is that which threatens a fight
between England and Abyssinia. A few
years ago the Abysslnians were quickly
whipped by the English. Then the Eng.
lish were ID turn whipped by the Sou
danese, and then they overcame the Bur
mese. 1t is not probable that 1t would
take England long TO again bring Abys-
sinia to terms. All Europe is ready for
war and this fact appears to be about the
only thing that promises peace.

Limiting Cotton Induction.

The cotton planter do not seem to On
ter with much euthusiam on the proposed
scheme for limiting The production Of the
staple in the United States. The propo-
sition has found earnest advocates in
few sections, but there Is little reason to
hope that any su bstantial basis OF action
Will be generally agreed on tnrOu ghout
the South; in fact, it IS doubtful whether
such thing Is possible. 1t IS certainly
not probable in the near future, although
IL is generally conceded tkst the average
price OF cotton Is alaTmingly near, II not
below, the cost OF production.
Cotton spinners, cotton seed oil makers,
coal operators, nail makers and others
interested in special industries do not find
# very difficult to combine for their pro-
lection against each other. When the
prices Of their products fall TO a certain
point they simply stop work or limit their
output according TO the demands Of con-
sumers. If the production OF cotton could
be thus restricted no doubt most of the
planters would be greatly benefited, as
they would. in measure, be able to con-
troll the price instead OF having it controll-
ed Dy Otner5.
While there is no prOba billy Of the pro-
posed combination of planters to limit the
production of cotton amounting to any,
thing, a very large proportion OF the plan
ters can act individually. Tney can
cease to rely on cotton as staple crop.
and make it a matter Of secondary con-
sideration. 1t is true that there seems to
be no money crop that can be generally
substituted for it, but where its cultiya-
ton 10 Improbable there ought TO be no
argument or persuasion needed to induce
planters to cease making it their main
crop.
There are reasons for believing that
there is not so much necessity for the cur
failing of the area planted in cotton as
there is for those who plant 1t to conduct
their operations on a cash basis, and so
be able to control their crops after they
are made.
