New York. Oct 20.-The early cable
news from the English cotton markets
was not satisfactory and the first call
here developed decline of 405 points
on near months and 10l2 points ON
later months. Firmer cables followed
and the market advanced 56D7 points,
the rise being assisted by better re-
norts from Fall River and renewed
talk of frost in the cotton belt. The
market afterward turntd easier; the
movement tending to oulrun estimates
and outside speculative support failing
to appear.
The close was very steady at net
advance of 205 points.
HUBBARD BROS. & cos LETTER.
New York, Oct. co aecial) -The
market remains under the influence
involved i'm the election and with mer-
chants indisposed to engage in new
enterprises, its steadiness in the face
of disappointing advices from abroad
and large receipts at the South is a
surprise to the trade. Our weather
service indicates another cold wave
extending into Arkansas tomorrow
morning and kilograms have been Fe-
ceived from North Carolina and South
Carolina reporting frost last night, but
the effect has been only to sustain
prices at slight advance over yester-
day. Throughout tlhe Southwest
the feeling has become quite bearish
based on the high ocean freights and
tight money, which are interfering
with the movement of cotton. In
view of the serious nature of the ques-
tions to be decided at the election it
is not surprising that merchants are
devoting their energies to preventing
possible loss rather than to enter into
contracts for either manufactured
goods or raw material. The feature
of the afternoon was the execution of
a few buying orders for continental
account which closed the market
steady at the best prices of the day.

THE PRESIDENT AND THE MILITIA.

TIL question is sometimes asked whether
the militia of a State can be called out by
the President of the United States, and
whether IL can, under any circumstances,
be sent outside of the State limits. The
The President shall be commander-in-chief
of the army and navy of the United States
and of the militia of the several States,
when called into actual service of the Unit
ed States" An act of Congress says:
Whenever the United States are invaded.
or are in imminent danger of invasion from
any foreign nation or Indian tribe. or of
rebellion against the authority of the gov
eminent of the United States, it shall be
number of the militia of the State or States
most convenient to the place of danger or
scene of action as he may deem necessary
to repel such invasion or to suppress such
rebellion, and to issue his orders for that
purpose to such officers of the militia as
he may think proper" Another section pro-
vides that whenever. in the judgment of the
President, it becomes impossible to enforce
the laws in any State by ordinary means,
lit shall be lawful for the President to call
forth the militia of any or all the States.
and to employ such PARTS of the land and
naval forces of the United States as he
may deem necessary to enforce the faithful
execution of the laws of the United States"
Under these provisions there is not a par
ticle of doubt as to the power of the Pres
ident to call out the whole or any part of

Judgment. IL is necessary for the enforce
ment of the laws of the United States. The
President is the sole Judge of the emer-
gency. and he Is not obliged 10 await the
action or request of the Governor of the
State or of any other local authority. Not
only that, but he can order the militia of
a State outside of the State. or wherever.
in his Judgment. Ii may be necessary for
them to go to enforce the laws and the
authority Of the United States. In the mat
ter of enforcing the laws of the United
States. the Constitution does not recog-
nize State governments or lines. The Presi-
dent has nothing to do with the enforce
ment of State laws. but i'm the enforce
ment of United States laws his authority
over the State militia is supreme. Under
the State law the Governor may also call
out the militia whenever. in his judgment,
IL may become necessary for the enforce
ment of State laws. but he could not or
der the militia outside of the State. The
authority of the Governor. as ~comander-in-
chief of the militia is limited TO the State,
while that Of the President Is co-extensive
with the United States.

Considering the extreme heat and the
youth and vocations of most Of the MEM
beers of the State militia, the officers should
be careful not to make too heavy drafts
on their strength and endurance during
the short period of the annual encampment.
1t must be remembered that the men
come directly from civil life. many of
them from :. sedentary or light occupa-
tions. Some of them have never, been
in camp before. and those who
have can hardly be expected to carry much

the object of the encampment is tosdvance

accustom the men to discipline and. to some
extent. to hard work. but care should be
taken not to break them down or TO make
the work so severe as TO disgust raw re-
cruits with the service. Ii should be the

INDIANA REPUBLICAN OPINION.

Under free and unlimited coinage of sill
yer silver viii be free only TO those who
are so fortunate as to own uncoined silver
bullion. To all other Americans ii will
have to be procured PRECISELY as silver Is
procured now-by working for II as wages
or by selling something in exchange for 1t.
And il will be worth then only half what
il is worth now.-Warsaw Times.
When silver is admitted to free coinage,
without charge for coinage, there will be
no difference in the value of a bar of silver
weighing ten pounds and a bag of silver
coin Weighing ten pounds. The government
will not have added any value to the coin
by a guarantee like that In force at this
time. There can be no difference in the
value of two things that can be changed
into each other. without expense, as often
as the holder p~leases.-Terre Haute Ex-
press.
In 1922 the Democrats carried the country
mainly on the ground that prices were too
high and that therefore the people were
being robbed, though there never had been
a time when people were SO well able to

now the same people. then Democrats. now

ST. Louis Special.

Ot. IOulS DpcNidl. W.
One of the first rows of the convention
on Saturday was over a resolution which
was offered by a New York Populist. who
insisted on having il read. The rules de-
manded that all resolutions should be re-
ferred to the committee on resolutions
without reading or debate. and despite the
frantic protests of the New York Populist
this resolution was laid On the table. The
New York Populist rushed up the aisle
where the reporters were. and yelled that
they should have it lin spite of hell
He recovered il from the clerk and
brought it to them with the information
that the Hon. Mann Page. of Virginia, was
the author. The resolution set forth that
a method had been discovered to make
gold, and by this method gold could be
made at much less than the coinage price
and in any quantity that might be de-
sired. The resolution went on. and rejoiced
that the emancipation of mankind was at
hand. and that free silver was no longer
an absolute necessity, and If defeated now
the world would be able TO worry along
without it. The resolution said that the
making of gold had been successfully dem
onstrated to a number of delegates in the
convention. 1t was thought that this might
be a sly slap at some of the delegates who
have been talking about Mark Hanna's
money. but the man who introduced the
resolution assured the reporter in all Sc
robustness that II was possible TO make
gold by artificial means. and that nothing
in the nature of a slap was intended in the
resolution.

1. NJ. G., Frankfort: The. government
would simply coin the bullion of the silver
barons. now worth about 70 cents an ounce,
into dollars. which would make the value
of silver s1.29 as legal-tender money. Those
dollars would come to rest. as you say. ION
their own intrinsic or bullion value when
used in purchasing merchandise. They
would for a time be worth more than the
Mexican silver dollar. but with the volume
of coinage they would simply be worth
what they would bring as bullion, which
can never be as much as d gold dollar. and
which would luctuate something as did
the ~greenback from the close of the war
until the passage of the act.
