The Anti-Options Bill.

The demand for the passage Of the anti
options bill by the farmers is 50 strong that
it will be passed either at this session Of
congress or the next. The farmers have
been advised that the making Of contracts
for the future delivery OF farm products de-
presses prices, and without giving the sut-
ject very careful thought have acted upon
the advice by peEitioning congress to pass
the snti-options bill.
There is a pretty strong probability that
IL the bill becomes a law they will discover
they have made a great mistake. There
are very good reasons for stating that the
future business tends to keep up the prices
Of farm products rather than depress them.
IL any one will make a careful study OF the
cotton market for the last two years he will
find il difficult to come TO any other
conclusion than that the price Of OFT
ton would have been much lower If there
had been no dealing in futures
If the making of contracts for future de-
livery of cotton should be made illegal, the
cotton planter would be compelled to de-
pend upon consumption for a market for
his cotton. AS consumption does not keep
pace with the marketing Of the crop, the
market would be glutted when the move
ment of the crop is heaviest, and prices
would fall much below what they should
be. The mills would have it in their power
to fix the price, aud they would take care
to make it as low as possible
Under the present system Of making con-
tracts for future delivery the sale OF cotton
is distributed throughout the year, and
the crop, at the same time, is moved rapidly.
II the future contract system is prohibited
in this country it will be conducted on a
much larger scale in Liverpool and other
European cities. and It will effect this coun-
try injuriously in two ways. Europe takes
our surplus cotton and breadstuffs
II European dealers are given a monopoly
of the future business the effort will be to
push dowa prices to the lowest possible
point. That is one way in which this coun-
try will be injured. The other is that specu-
lators in bresdstuffs in this country, beng
deprived OF chance TO speculate here, will
speculate through the European exchanges,
and the commissions on q vast amount Of
business that ought to remain 10 this coun-
try will be transferred to the pockets Of
European brokers.
The future business came into existence
because there was a Legitimate demand for
1t. II It could be shown that it Injuries the
farmers it ought to be prohibited, but it
cannot be shown that it does, On the con-
trary, it benefits them. In urging the
passage Of the anti-options law they are
attacking their own interests.

Senator John B. Gordon says he allowed
his name to be used by the Georgia-Ala =
bama company because he knsw the town
Of Tauapoosa was progressing well. and in
an excellent climate, aud because he was
anxious to help southern development as
far as he could. Still, he knew very little
about the affairs Of the concern, and had no
connection with the company's business.
His desire to assist southern development
was, indeed, laudable; but his judgment
was at fault in allowing his name to be
used. That name, doubtless. induced in
vestments by persons who would have put
their money 10 safer place had they not
seen the senator mentioned as indorsing the
Tallspoosa concern.

Psalm of the Bald Heads.
From the Chicago Tribune.

from the Chicago Tribune.
Tell me not in merry accents,
That have On unthatched roof;
TITS the hairy head that lacks sense
Badness is oft thought PROOF.
Hair is vulgar, hair is useless,
And the brush and comb bore:
Making life but dull and iuiceless,
need brush and comb no more.
Not for wise men mattel hair is,
Black or brown, or red or fair;
Let the savage of the prairies
Waste ais time in raising hair.
Life is short and hairs are numbered,
And, though flies are hardly borne,
Still al night I've always slumbered,
When the niRhtcaD l have worn.
In the worlds broad field Of battle,
Who'd be at the BARRIERS call,
Listening to bis tiresome tattlei
Better bare as a billiard ball.
Fear no future, bald. headed brother,
You were bald In infant days;
Crave not hirsute or another
Brain 1t is, not hair, that pays.
Lives OF great men all remind US
That our smooth and polished pateS
Leave all barry heads behind US
Let US thank the fsvoring fates!
Footprints Of Old Times feet walking
No one sees on our smooth crowns,
Mind no more the idle talking
Made by anxious mop-head clowns.
let us then, o hairless brother,
Proudly through lite's pathway roll;
We remember that dear Mother
Earth is barren at the pole.

Mcqarrahan,s PATIENCE.

Mr.. BILLY" McGarrahan is the most
patient Of mortals. On Monday the House
passed a bill recognizing claim he has
against the government, and for which he
has persistently lobbied for twenty-five
years. The bill had already passed the SEN
ate. 1t does not authorize his claim TO be
paid, but permits him to carry 1t before the
court Of claims.
He was a handsome man Of IS years Of
age when his bill was first introduced into
congress, and he had comfortable fortune,
Now he is white-hsired old man OF 20, and
for number OF years he has lived on the
charity of his friends He may not win his
claim in the new tribunal before which he
goes, and it is a question whether he will
live to see it adjudicated, as 1t may drag
along for years. But he need no longer be
dependent upon his friends. II be should
win his claim, it would be worth something
like $4,000, 900. and it is said ne could sell
it now for S1,O00,00O.
His claim is for title to the quicksilver
mines Of the New Idria Mining Company Of
California. McGarrahan claims title to the
property from a Soaniard. The question is
whether this Spa liard's title was such a one
as was protected by the treaty which this
country made with Mexico, known as the
treaty of Guadalupe HidaIgo. The New
Idria company got possession of the property
about the time that McGarrahan purchased
it. The claim has had a remarkable history
thus far. 1t has furnished incidents enough
OF remarkable and exciting nature to
make an intensely interesting romance.

What a difference between the vision and
the realization Three or four months ago
the families and friends of the BaItimore's
sailors who had been murdered or maltreat-
ed by a Chilean mob reckoned up the sum
of their damages, fixing amounts that ag-
gregated away above the million-iollar
mark, and they imagined that the United
States would force little Chile to pay some
thing like the sums demanded. That was
the dream. Day before yesterday the Sec
rotary OF State announced that an entirely
cordial and mutually satisfactory settlement
had been reached between the two govern
ments, whereby 5000 is to be distributed
between the families of the suffering sail
ors. That is the realization. Moral: 1t
will not do 60 contract for marble palaces
on the strength Of damages alleged in alibel
suit.

The Situation at Homesread

The signs that the trouble at Homestead
is not yet over are increasing in number
The strikers no longer manifest
the kindly feeling for the troops which
they exhibited on the arrival OF the
troops. They are beginning to show
an ugly disposition They boot at
the troops and endeavor to annoy them in
various ways. AS it becomes clearer that
the Carnegie association intelds to run the
mills without the assistance OF union men
the strikers become more bold in their
threats as to what they will do if their
claims are not recognized.
1t is probable that there will be no out
break as long as the troops remain, but no
one can predict with any degree of Ger
tainty what will occur when the
troops are removed. 1t is believed that an
effort will be made to drive the non-union
men out Of Homestead il the Carnegie COM
pany gets enough of them to run the mills
There is no doubt that all the labor or
ganizstions are In sympathy with the
strikers, aud II is said that the union men
in the service of the railroad companies
running out of Pittsburg will refuse TO
handle material for, or the product Of the
Carnegie mills If the mills are operated by
non-union workmen. This would bring a
new factor into the trouble which might
prove to be fully as Troublesome as the
strike.
The strikers say that the Carnegie mana
gers cannot get enough skilled workmen out
side of the unions to run the mills. The
managers, however. do not seem to think
they will have any difficulty in getting all
the men they want, both skilled and I'M
skilled. What troubles them more than
anything else is, how to protect non-union
men after they have been obtained.
The prosecution of those OF the strikers
who we're prominent In the battle with the
Pinkerton men is being pushed, and it
appears to be the intention OF the Carnegie
company to leave no means untried to Sc
cure their conviction. The charge against
them is murder. It is difficult
to see how IL will be
possible to secure a verdict against them in
Allegheny county, because very large
majority Of the people of the county are ia
sympathy with the strikers. From present
appearances the strike is going to be a long
one and before it is ended it may involve
half the labor organizations In the country.
