as high price as when thus secured. This
system attracts capital by giving safe
margin for transactions. With ten thou
sand men trading in options, with an aver
age capital OF 81 900 each. there Is an ag-
gregaie of twenty millions, which wiiicarry
two hundred million bushels of wheat, and
the producers share the benefit OF this
great aggregation of capital. whereas If
transactions were confined to SPOT wheat
each producer would have to rely upon his
own resources. and would be completely at
the mercy of the grasping and the avari-
cious.
Strong confirmation OF this view is Of
fered by a comparison of the wheat and
corn with the meat market. In the for

dealing in futures. Within few months
wheat had advanced 40 and corn more
than SO per cent, OF which the farmer has
reaped his full share of benefit, while the
kings of the stock-yards have kept prices to
producers down. and run prices TO consum-
ers up. and they have fattened while the
ranchers have starved. The Deacon's ar
gument sounds well. but perhaps the
farmers can make counter showing it
does seem as though the options system
gives them the advantage of large capital
which they could not personally command
and control except at heavy cost. And it
also seems Us though by their Alliances
and similar organizations, II they practice
good faith among themselves, they should
be able to hold in check any disposition of
the dealers to obtain unfair advantages.

OPTIONS" ABLY DEPENDED.

Hon. s. w. White. of New York, better
known As Deacon" White, an ex-con.
gresham from Brooklyn district, made
speech q few days ago against what is
known a. the Anti-option bill. This bill
was \ great favorite with the farmers, who
had conceived an idea that the grain ex-
change practice of dealing in options was
injurious to producers. In difference to
the demands of the farmers the bill was
passed by the lower house, but has hung
ire in the Senate,
A great many well informed Journals
have contended that the farmers had run
counter to their own interests in advocat-
ing this measure. In this opinion Deacon
White heartily concurs. arguing the ques-
ton with much ability, and as though be
understood IL thoroughly. Dealing in op-
tons. be contends, enables the farmer to
obtain at his nearest railroad station the
fun market price at the grain centers, less
only the freight and actual charges, and he
gets cash down.
All of the grain regions are full of eager
rival buyers. These. at each railroad sta
ton, get the latest quotations for Septem-
Der wheat Each buyer wires his house to
sell so much for September delivery, and i,
is Immediately done. II be had to take
chances on fluctuations in price within two
or three weeks he could not afford TO pay
