HAVEN & sToUT's COTTON LETTER

Especial to News and Observer
New York, August 25.-The cotton
market has been rather less active this
week, and, as was natural after the re-
cent advance, speculative interests
showed a tendency to realize, thereby
creating more or less concession in the
general level of prices. Better wealth
er in the cotton growing region has re-
suited in considerable improvement in
sections where unfavorable views pre-
vailed as to the crop outcome. This
added to the uncertainty of the trading
element as to the possibilities in con-
nection with prices, and increased the
disposition to realize or go short, and
some active interests take bearish
view, based on the lack of demand and
the possibility of eXaggeration about the
reduction of the crop. Liverpool was
affected by the same causes, and liqui
dation there caused withdrawal of the
support which the foreign market had
extended of late to our own. 1t is noted
that the recent strength of cotton was
in the main discounting of the general
belief that the small surplus at the end
of the expiring crop year, and the pros
pect of a very moderate if not positively
small yield of new cotton would compel
prices to advance on a legitimate basis
of supply and demand.
hold the opinion that these reasons re-
main valid, and that cotton will probably
command considerably higher figures
during the coming autumn and winter.
There is consequently a tendency to buy
at declines, and it seems that both the
trade and the public will invest largely
at all concessions that may occur from
this time on 1t would be natural if the
existence of a large bull interest should
invite manipulation for the purpose of
causing declines, but a reasonable view
of the situation would seem to be that
cotton will work to a higher level, as
there is no probability of any marked
change in the indications that now point
to a crop perhaps a little larger than
the last one. but still below the average
of recent years. Inactivity continues to
characterize the cotton goods industry,
and the market for spots is correspond
ingly quiet The prospective reopening
of the Chinese market is factor which
may not be neglected.

STAND BY REpUBLICANISM"

in the administration might do away with all
this civilzing work, and allow the natives to
20 back into barbarism.
9Th. There is the well-regulated social evil
in connection with the army. This system is
the same used in connection with the British
army in India until Frances Willard and lot
of cranks exposed the whole matter, and COM
PEELED the system to 60 down through public
sentiment. The New Voice is already trying
to arouse the voters against This policy, but, as
our platform says, "We indorse the admins
tration," every Republican should vote to up
hold this regulated social evil system-sucn
necessity for the preservation of the morals and
purity of the boys. In the Suu Islands, where
polygamy is practiced, the army has imported
Japanese girls, and these are kept under mill
tary guard and medical attendance.
If D. w. Houston had given these facts,
which are presented by the New Voice through
its correspondent, who spent two months in the
Philippine islands looking up the grand work of
turning the "barbarians' to Christian civiliza-
ton, he would have shown the great need of all
people, with the same deep convictions as him
self, standing by the Republican party. The
writer, who has been cut of the Republican
party for over twenty years, may be mistaken
about the weight of these arguments, but ne
thinks they ought to help bring the immoral
and ungodly and hypocritical, and all those
whom Satan is leading through blind partisan
ism to carry out his WILL to give earnest sup
port to the administration.
There never has been time when moral
men and Christian men and true men were so
likely to leave the administration, and put forth
efforts to secure something more in harmony
with the Sermon on the Mount.
Should any Republican say he does not be-
lieve there is any such need of standing by the
party, because he does not believe these points
presented, he need not long lemain in ignor-
ance. A few copies of the New Voice will con-
vince any one, who wants to know the truth,
and who does not make habit of leaving his
convictions and conscience at home when he
goes to cast the ballot. The writer is anxious
that Republicans should know what they are
going to vote for, as we'll as their need to stand
together. He is also anxious to keep as many
Christians as possible from voting to uphold the
most wicked policy ever endorsed in
platform. w. nj. HOWE.

D. w. Houston makes an appeal in the Plain
dealer Of August 24th, to stand by the party
that the administration may be upheld; that the
boys may not return in the same boats in which
they were sent out; that the flag may not for
the first time be furled; that millions placed in
our charge be not again delivered to barbarism,
and that the wealth Of the Orient be not lost to
our commerce.
Mr.. Houston should have mentioned few
other things in calling the Republicans to stand
together that the administration may be indors-
ed. 1t is a wonder that D. w. Houston over
looked the mention OF these points which ap-
peal so strongly to some Republicans during
this campaign.
1st. There is the sale OF liquor in the army
canteen. The w. c. T. U. and number OF
cranks made an attack upon this most helpful
system, and the prohibitionists are still making
an attack upon the system of providing these
beverages so helpful to the souls and bodies OF
the soldiers, and especially so helpful in hold
ing the liquor vote solid to the Republican
party. As Bryan had no liquor in his regiment,
and does not personally use liquors, there is
danger should he be elected that the liquor
would be put out of the canteen.
and. There is the extension OF the liquor
trade that is likely to be interfered with. The
saloons are now we'll established in Manila, and,
as the barbarous inhabitants are subdued, there
will be the extension of the saloons, and a
large revenue secured for the maintenance of
our government. These saloons give the soldier
boys an opportunity to spend their money, and
it comes back to the government in revenue.
Already they are we'll patronized. Out of a.
600 soldiers around Manila, nearly seven thous'
and have been court-martialed for drunkenness,
or crimes committed when drunk. There are
on the average thirty-eight of these court-mar-
tials every day. All this calls for the Republic
cans to stands together against the enemies Of
the administration.
ard. There is also the licensed brothel in con-
nection with the licensed saloon. The admin
istration, under the military system, has this in
nice running order, and 1t is making quite a
revenue from the far.of islands. There are
those who look upon this system of licensing
the bawdy house as great evil and are max
ing this point against the administration, and
the Republicans should stand shoulder-to-
shoulder to indorse.
Ath. The opium traffic and dens are also on
weil-regulated and paying basis. One man has
the concession for all the opium imported, set
ties with the government officials and gets his
pay from the opium-den managers. A change
