Governor Roosevelt's Speech.

Governor ROOSeVelt Sald:
''It must be always a peculiar prlVl-
lege for any thoughtful public man to
address a body of men predomlnately
composed of wage-workers, for the toun-
dation of our whole social structure rests
upon the material and moral well-being
the intelligence, the foresight, the sanl-
ty, the sense of duty and the wholesale
patriotism of the wage workers. IhlS
is doubly the case now, for, in addition
to each mans individual action, you
have learned the great lesson of acting
in combination.
"In addressing you the one thing that
/ wish to avoid is any mere gliterlng
generality, any mere high sounding phra-
seology and above all, any appeal what
sover made in demagogic spirit, or in
a spirit of mere emotionalism.
1--WE must beware of any attempt to
make hatred in any form the basis of
action. Most emphatically each of us
needs to stand up for his rights, but to
feed fat a grudge against others, while
it may not harm them, is sure in the
long run to do infinite harm to the man
himself
"The more a healthy American sees of
ones fellow Americans, the greater
grows his conviction that our chief trou-
bles come from mutual misunderstand-
ing, from failure to appreciate one an
others point of view. In other words,
the great need is fellow feeling, sympa-
thy, brotherhood and all this naturally
comes by association.
"Our prime need as a nation is that
every American should understand and
work with his fellow citizens, getting
into touch with them so that by actual
contact he may learn that fundamentally
he and they have the same interests,
needs and aspirations.
In our cities, or where men congre-
gate in masses, it is often necessary to
work in combination, that is, through as
sociatons, and here it is that we see
the great good conferred by labor organ
cations, by trades unions. OF course
managed unwisely, the very power of
such union of organization makes it
capable of doing much harm, but on the
whole it would be hard to overestimate
the good these organizations have done
in the past, and still harder to estimate
the good they can do in the future if
handled with resolution, forethought
honesty and sanity.
'We have exactly the same spirit to
regulate the conditions of life and ork
in factories and tenement houses that
have to regulate fire escapes and the
like in other houses. In certain commu-
mites the existence of a thoroughly eff
cient department of factory inspection
is just as essential as the establishment
of a fire department How far we shall
go in regulating the hours of labor or
the liabilities of employers, is a matter
of expediency and each case must be
determined on it's own merits, exactly
as it is matter of eXpediency to deter
mine what so-called public utilities
the community shall itself own, and what

BACILLI ON BOOKS.
A Correspondents Suggestion to the
Public Library.


Editor Advertiser:-The following
clipping from the Scientific American
of November 18th, 1899, contains in
formation on the spread of tuberculosis
which is of interest to us as well as
to people in other countries:
The Board of Health of New York
city has received a communication
from the Board of Health in Michigan
stating that twenty clerks of that State
who We're working over old volumes
of records were taken III with con-
sumption and died. The books were
examined by bacteriologist and were
found to be full of tubercules and
bacilli, and it is thought they became
infected from a clerk who had con-
sumption and who had the habit OF
moistening his thumb with saliva when
turning the pages.
In reference to the above I would
like to remind keepers OF all Libraries
that the habit OF moistening from the
/ lips the leaves of books is very COM
mon; and 1 would suggest that the fol
lowing label, printed on paper of some
striking color, be pasted on the inside
of cover of every book in every library
in the Hawaiian Islands:
please do not use moisture from the
( lips in turning the leaves Of this book
1 as the practice is unclean, and otter
/ the means Of spreading disease"

COTTON FUTURES.

The market for cotton futures was
narrow one to-day. Fluctuations were con-
fined to a range of Z points on the more
active positions, while some months
scarcely varied after the opening call. 1t
was also a small market as to the VOL
ume of business. The general tendency
of LOCAL sentiment was bearish on lower
cables, good crop accounts and larger re-
ceipts than looked for. Opening easy at
a decline of 2Q6 points, there was further
decline of points, but the whole course
of the market was sluggish. Wall street
parties gave some support for the sum
mer positions, which checked the selling
of later months. The unsatisfactory ca
bles were partially accounted for by pri-
vate advices representing active lquida-
ton by several large operators following
recent improved weather conditions in the
cotton belt. A prominent factor of weak
ness was the delivery OF $500 bales on May
contracts, partly returned to this port for
the purpose, by New England buyers, who
were attracted by the premium The mar
ket closed quiet at a net decline of 4QS
points.

Morning News ONCE, May 4-The fea-
.rra of the weeks business was the ac-
+,,ity in naval stores, which fuctuated in
nrices considerably, but closed to-day
u,thout very great gain above the pre-
yailing prices on last Friday The gain
was mostly in the pale grades of rosin,
which are firm and in good demand at
quotations. Spirits turpentine was firm
last Friday at At cents, and after going
down about the middle of the week, raj
lied on a squirt in the demand caused by a
better local demand, and also the en-
trance of the Standard Oil Company in
the market, which brought a recovery of
the losses.
The cotton market closed unchanged,
the closing to-day being quiet. The fact
better weather now prevails encourages
the farmers to repair the losses caused
by rains, and reports from the belt indl-
cate that they are pushing farm work
ahead. Another effect of the improved
weather is the lively selling at present
in the future market. The receipts of
cotton the past week were fairly good.
Mr.. w. NJ. Bent, for years local man.
ager of the Standards business, but for
the past year in charge of it's turpentine
buying department, is in the city at pres
ent. His visits to the companys agents
throughout the interior has taken him to
nearly every section of the naval stores
belt during the past few weeks, and be
is therefore familiar with the general con-
ddon of things on farms. He anticipates
a considerable lessening of receipts from
all interdor sources for some time to come
as a result of the floods, though he saws
this applies mostly to Alabama and Mis-
sssippi. where the most serious effects
were felt. South Georgia and Florida
have not been thrown back greatly, and
supplies from these states will probably
not be diminished A setback of from
two TO three weeks confronts other sec
TONS however, and longer unless rapid
strides are made in repairing damages.
Speaking of production this season, Mr..
Bent says the outlook is for a large crop.
Judging from the activity shown in the
business IN all sections. With practically
no decrease in operations in the old terri
tory, and with great preparations for more
extensive operations in the virgin fields
he looks for a much larger output than
that of last year The large consump-
tive demand Will probably not make the
prospect of an Increased output a conso-
lation to the bear element, however, as
the indications are that all that comes to
market will be taken at good prices
The following resume of the different
markets will show the tone and quota
tons at the close to-day:

STOCKS AND bonds.

maintained its narrow and professional
character to-day. AS though to vary the
appearance of recent monotony in the mar
ket yesterdays slight upward movement
was continued at the opening to-day in

But this was hardly more than a device OF
the small traders to give an appearance Of
strength to the market, and their realiz-
ing sales before the close brought prlc 8

few usually inactive stocks.
