COTTON.

New York. Feb 2.-The cotton mar
ket made good start but subsequently,
eased off, with trading considerably less
active than for a period of over two
weeks, yet news was generally Of bullish
purport. Strong English cables we're
largely responsible for al advance OF
4 to 6 points at the opening. Other
factors out of the better ruling of the
market were the discouraglng weather
reports from nearly all sections If the
South, estimates for Il very light move
ment at both ports and interior towns
and continued gratifying accounts from
New England and the cloth markets.
The readiness with which wheat re-
sponded to selling pressure and the
irregular railing Of stocks recently, to-
gether with yesterdays bad slump in
cotton tended to unnerve good many
holders, and after the initial response
to the foreign news, the local market
gradually gave way under leaiizing
sales. The selling pressure acted as
an incentive to leading bears AMI at
times pounding was quite freely in
dulged in. A notable feature of the
days business was the appearance as
sellers of several prominent local
houses, who were known to have
changed from bearish to bullsh
faith at about the highest point nf the
recent rise. But while the later phases
Of the market were unsatisfactory to
the friends of cotton, the statistical
situation and general outlook were fully
as bullish as at any time thus Ear this
season. a few,.Wall Street firms acre

absorbed large blocks of the May and

In a recent publication of statistics

In recent publication of statistics
relating to the sale of liquor. the fact
is developed that in two
SOME New England cities of
| STRIKING the same population =
FIGURES. Springfield in AIassa-
chusetts and Man
chester in New Hampshire-which
have each about $4,000 inhab-
itants The arrests for drunk
enness are nearly equal number
ing 1,456 in Manchester and 1,431 in
Springfield This would be natural
enough, were It not that Springfield is
a license city, with forty-seven liquor
saloons, while Manchester is a proht-
bition city, with no saloons. 1t might
be argued from this showing that sa-
looms do not promote drunkenness,
We're it not for the more striking and
important proof which we seem to find
in it that prohibition of the sale of
liquor has no effect upon drunkenness.
There can be no sale of liquor in Man
chester without violating law, yet
,456 drunkards have been arrested
there, rather more than we find in an
other city of the same size where
liquor is freely sold. 1t may well be
asked, with such figures made public
what is the use of prohibition? Has it
any effect, except to bring law into con
tempt? On the other hand, a law that
is not enforced is worse than no law
and is deserving of contempt. So long
as human weakness is preyed upon by
the liquor dealer the liquor problem
must remain unsolved. The dealer
cannot be abolished effectually by law.
About the most that can be done with
him is to restrict him. If the prohibit
tionists could only devise some scheme
to prohibit human weakness the dealer
would soon be seeking another mode of
livelihood and the liquor question would
be forever settled.

CONVERSATIONS FOR THE BoERs

Fighting is a rudinentary pleasure
which we have generally outgrown;
and we are no longer the natural ami
mails we once were. There is much
comfort in fact to be derived from the
contemplation of the changes that
have taken place. Personal comfort
that is; for it is we'll known to be an
anxious subject for consideration with
those who philosophize whether, when
we have got into the state of being IN
terested in wars made by others at
great distance from any center of dan
ger to ourselves. there IS not some rea-
son to think that nationally we are in
a somewhat dangerous condition. Peo-
pies have Won empires by personal
fighting and lost them by proxy. There
are many striking instances which go
to prove that there is something nat
ural and inevitable in the process. But
this is an unanswerabIe question.
There has always been lament over
the growth of commercialism because
it extinguished the fighting capacity Of
citizens even though by its creation of
wealth it enabled better trained mer-
cenaries to be employees. Yet the
gradual substitution for fighting itself
of the interest derived from fighting by
proxy, and the comfortable attraction
of hearing news of it instead of taking
part in it, have always steadily gone
en-. 1t may be noticed that the Beers
have introduced curious variant on
the usual history. Wishing to retain
their virility uninpaired they declined
to become commercial themselves, but
they got their money from people they
called Outlanders. Whether they have
escaped Scylla only to fall into Chary-
bdis remains to be seen according to
the result of the temporary state Of
nature into which they and the Out
landers have fallen over the business
Assuming for the sake OF argument
that we may contemplate as a result
of the Incorporation Of the Beers as
part of a really large state, we might
point out to them as a compensation
that they would be able to enjoy the
state of war in the modern civilized
ia shion with all its numerous cOnven-
fences. AT present there is too much
probability Of affairs containing an I'M
necessarily large amount Of the print
tive raw material. In other circun--
stances there would be no iced for
them to leave the field, the farm, the
vrow and the kinder. They cannot he
so untouched by the fcloderH spirit that
they really like doing this when they
might remain comfortably at home and
enjoy as we do at the domestic hearth
all the various excitements of war

Young Cornelius Vanderbilt takes oc-
casion to deny that the extra allow
ance of $6,OOO,OOO to him out of his
fathers estate was a gift from his
brother. He intimates that the will
would not have been probated if his
lawyers had not succeeded IN securing
the concession. Cornell is now able
to fix the cost of marrying a girl eight
years older than himself at something
like $50. 1000, 900, the amount over what
he himself receives which goes to his
