COTTON.

New York, May 6.-Cotton was
to 4 points higher at the opening and
was a shade easier during the day On
moderate trading. Liverpool adTiees
were encouraging as to the volume

is in favor Of the staple in spite Of
the small volume of business and
commission firms report more in
quiry in speculative circles which
may result in higher prices and q
broadening market. The weather
throughout the cotton belt today
was reported as unusually cold, IN

ARDMoRE. FRIDAY, MAY 6.
AS TO INTERVENTION.

mas O6on every DAY since Cno
present serious difficulties with
Spain began, that there is a
probability that the European
powers will intervene. the cause
of interference at this time be-
ing. as it is supposed. the Amer
ican victory at Manila.
As far as the United States
is concerned. there seems to be
no especial call for interven-
ton. 1t has given no hint of
the necessity or value of such
a step. The United States has
entered upon war with Spain to
secure its own honor and safety,
save Cuban people from misery
and destruction, the island from
further desolation, and to drive
from it a treacherous enemy to
this country. The United States
is abundantly able to accom-
plish these purposes, and no in
.teryention by any powers can
possibly divert it from them.
The only Intervention that
seems to be indicated. by rea-
son Or good policy; should come
in the shape of representations
by the powers to Spain that fur
ther conflict with the United
States is useless. The Emper-
or of Austria. instead of giving
100000 out of his own pocket
to Spain to build a new war
ship, should suggest that Spain
just now has no business with
warships especially to put up
a fight with the navy of the
United States. The Emperor
of Germany who, it is said, had
concluded that in the first pas
sage at arms with Spain the
United States would be defeat
ed, should revise that conclu-
sion and settle down in the con-
Yiction that in the beginning
the United States is. and in the
end will be, altogether too much
for Spain. Ali the powers and
all the advisers, including the
Pope. should devote their per-
suasiye efforts to convincing
Spain of the good policy of ac-
cepting the ultimatum of the
United States, and that without
delay, lest worse befall.
1t would seem as if the sub
stantial lessons of history
should exert their legitimate
effect and teach all the powers
whom it may concern that two
things are certain. namely, that
nothing can be done to check
the overthrow of Spain; and,
second, nothing can be done to
prevent the dominance in the
Western Hemisphere of the
United States. The weakness
of Spain is inherent. 1t is bred
in her blood and bone. Spain
can rule nothing. keep nothing,
and, on the other hand, the
United States is strong in stand
ing for immortal ideas and
principles, and is endowed with
incalculable natural and ac-
quired resources for their main
tenance.
The present trouble should
result in much more than in
driving ths miserable Spanish
out of Cuba. 1t should result
in a better understanding in the
earth of the power and mission
of the United States of Amer
ica. 1t should compel the ac-
knowledgment of the suprem- |
acy of the United States in the |
affairs of the Western world |
as a power not to be dictated |
TO, but with a controlling and |
directing voice and hand.-Star. |

A Sample of Good Moro,

to the September Century an article on
THE Malay Pirates of the Philippines"
Speaking of his guide, Prof. Worcester
says: Toolawee was considered a good
Moro, and we were therefore interested
in certain incidents which gave us an
insight into his real character. After
satisfying himself by observation that
we could use our rifles with some eff
feet, he made us a rather startling
business proposition in the following
words: you gentlemen shoot quite
well with the rife" YES; we have
had some experience" you desire to
get samples of the clothing and arms
of my countrymen for your collection"
Yes" Papa General Arolas) told
you, If you met armed Moros outside
the town, to order them to lay down
their arms and retire." yes" Papa
does not understand my people as l do.
They are all bad. When we meet
them, do not ask them to lay down
. again, and get them, and probably at
tack US. Just shoot as many of them
as possible. You can then take their
arms and clothing, and l will cut off
their heads, shave their eyebrows,
show them to papa, and claim the re-
ward for killing juramentados." He
never really forgave us for refusing to
enter into partnership with him on this
very liberal basis.

THE LONE WOMAN TRAVELLER.

The new woman doesn't propose
to miss the delights Of travel simply
Tor lack o a protector. She knows
how to tai care of herself, and when
she starts of on a little journey nova
days 1t isn't with the nervous dread
that something's going to happen be-
fore she reaches her destination-if
ever she does, but she proceeds at nee
to make herself comfortable and to
thoroughly enjoy her little rub up
against the outside world.
But although she rests secure in a
delightful feeling of safety, 1t has
never occurred to the general woman
that making her to travel in safety"
is a business all in itself.
She may have heard, for example,
that the great New York Central
Railroad is the only route in the Unit
ed States that is completely equipped
with the world-famous lock and block
system of signals, but that doesn't
mean anything to her until you ex-
plain thai by this system every foot
over which she travels Is carefully and
increasingly watched and signaled day
n night, and that collision is prac-
tically impossible, because a train can
not enter a given block or section I'M
til the train ahead has passed out, and
that even If there should be another
train following on the same track the
engineer knows all about 1t through
The electric telegraph, which is part
Of the system, thus making assurance
doubly sure
II the lone woman happens to be
going to New York City she need have
no dread of landing alone in the con-
fusion of a big, strange place If she
travels by the New York Central. AL
she has to do is to speak to one of the
red-capped attendants-free service
who will carry her bag, answer hel
questions and show her to cab, car Oh
elevated train.
Another thing, she lands right In
the heart of the city within a step o.
a dozen or more Of its leading hotels
and she should bear In mind that thi!
is the only railroad depot in all New
York City.
The New York Central might aptly
be called "the lone woman's route
