the main merely an echo OF the flnnn-
ciai policy set forth In the presidents

Necessity for the secretary OF the treas

Whenever, IN his Judgment. such issue

supply casual dciicits." lie states
What the retirement and cancellation
OF the legal tender notes would not
necessarily produce any contraction OF

shonld follow and continue for any
length OF time. II would chow that the
present volume OF money In the cuun-
try Is too great. He adds that in case

He points out that tho silver certin-
Gates arc being used to withdraw gold

December n.

Chairman Kent, OF the Southwestern
Traffic association. has just notified
members that the Cotton Belt has
again extended the time OF its with
drawal from the association. and will
not take such action until December 81.
There are two surmises given as
probable reason for the latest post
ponement, One of these IL that in order
that holiday buslress may not be de-
moralized consequent upon the going
10 pieces of the association. the Cotton
Belt has been prevailed upon to hold
still until after the holidays.
The other suggestion IL that the gen.
eral managers have not yet been able
to md time TO take the matter up with
President Fordyce. OF the Cotton BELT,
and have succeeded in obtaining q
postponemcnt until they can do so.
At any rate. the meeting called by
Chairman Kent. which was TO have
been held today. has been called OFF.
and there will be no meeting OF the

held January Z, In St Louis.

LooIsISa TO THE WEST.

The proposal to hold Southern
States exposition in Chicago. which
was the outgrowth Of visit by a large
delegation OF the business men OF the
Lake city to the Atlanta Exposition.
has provoked a discussion OF the ad-
Visibility OF II trade alliance between
the South and the West. II is sug-
gested that Chicago would be willing
to furnish the capital for the building
of manufactures In the south IL she
were permitted to control their output
and favored with other trade which
these relations would naturally stimu-
late. The advocates OF this idea con-
tend that New York Is hostile to the
manufacturing development of the
Sonth because II promises to make the
South independent OF the East. and
that the true southern policy is to seek
western alliances. offensive and de-
fenslve.
II Ia undoubtedly true that those who
have money Invested In New England
mills, or who are beneficlaries OF the
trade systcm OF those mills, are not
friendly 10 development that must
Interfere. IN some measure at least.
with their present investments and
trade relations. II the ascendancy OF
New England In manufacturing can
be maintained. 1t is TO tho interest OF
New York that 1t should be maintained.
j; behoovcs the South to find friends
and helpers wherever they can be
found. and II the rivalry between the
eastern and the western metropolis
may be utilized for her benefit the OPP
portuuity should be utilized. In any
event a Southern States exposition at
Chicago would be good thing for the
South. and II would also be a good
thing for Chicago.

Commercial Interests Are Awake to
Exigencics of situation.

Inc suggestions published a few
DAYS ago in reference to the composi-
tlon OF the next railroad commission
has elected considerable comment. 90
pecially that portion relating TO the
commission coming from North, Gem
tral and South Texas.
The commercial interests of this sa--
ton OF the state are thoroughly alive
10 the necessity of representation. and
1t Is presumed that Central Texas will
take hold OF the idea at the proner
time. IL has been suggested that as
Waco Is the largest city of Central
IeNas, her people will probably nut
forward candidate for commissioner
ana urge his election at the hands OF
the people OF the state. There is some
good material in Waco. and from ali
indications 1t is willing TO serve.
South Texas also has some stronr
men FOR the place. and with the strong
ana continual rowing between Calves
ton ana Houston over the question Of
ulilerentials, there Is n strong proba-
b!lity that an outside man may be
settled upon as a compromise. And in
TINS connection 1t might be borne In
mind mat an eN-commlssloner, and n
very strong man with tho people OF
Texas. resides at Velasco.
IN North Texas there will not be any
dearth OF candidates, as the position
is looked upon as one OF the most de-
sirable connected with the state gov
ernment-a place OF trust and honor
carrying with 1t just remuneration for
the labor and responsibility involved
1t Is n position IN which tho CONNER
cial interests OF the state are more
vitality concerned than In all other
state offices combined--especn lly The
Jobblng interests. which have already
grown TO such an extent as to knoci,
the outside jobber pretty well out OF
the ring. The right kind OF commits
sion Ia very essential at this juncture.

points Ia Galveston proportion OF the
through rate on outside shipments.
''Weii. IL occurs TO me that the law
saws the commission shall make all
rates Just and equitable. and any
man OF average comprehension can
readily sec that 1t would not be just
and equitable to make the rate on
cotton 10 Galveston a proportion of
what the through rate Is TO outside
points. There would be no Justice or
equity In any such proceeding, how
ever much 1t might rebound TO Calves
tons benefit"
There was also something In the
gentleman's manner which indicated
that IL Galveston succeeded In getting
any such rate made by the commission
ct the Austin meeting on the 18th to
consider these matters. that there
might be such thing as another in
junction suit.
