COTTON MARKET I
 WAS UNSTEADY Opening Advance Checked by Selling by Exporters. LOCAL TRADERS BOUGHT Trading Was at No Time Very Active The Close Was Steady at
 Net Rise of from 5
 to 9 Points

New York; October 3.-The market opened at an advance of to 1S points. Liv- erpool after opening at decline, recov- cred partially, reviving considerable specu- lative interest here while also causing shorts to cover. The opening advance was checked by selling by exporters against purchasers in the South. This selling caused a partial reaction in connection with reports that high grade cotton was heading for New York, which offered a better market than Liverpool, thus prom ising some increase to the small stock at New York. At the same time crop &C., counts averaged quite as we'll as hereto fore, with some contradictions. to claims that the crop was to be picked and out of the way with phenomenal despatch.
 Prices sold off to g points from the opening basis but again the market rallied was further stimulated by private cables forecasting a higher Liverpool market in the morning. Trading was at no time very active. Local traders bought most of the cotton sold on Liverpool hedges. There was also some desultory buying by Wall street parties. Tine South bought while the Southern spot markets were generally un- changed, in one or two instances a shade lower. The final phases of the local mar ket reflected a disposition to hestitate. The close was steady at net rise of to g points.

Work on the Railroad.


After hearing all the blasting from
the direction of the railroad camps
one is disappointed when he
follows the Eureka Road to where
the new road begins and finds
only few feet of grading done
at this point and does not see any
one at work. But if he is persever-
ing and follows the right of way on
ly short distance his disappoint-
ment will soon give way to aston
ishment at the work he sees.
On the FIRST three miles OF the road
the distance from the beginning to
| the tunnel, there are three camps
and more than a hundred men at
work. Just beyond the tunnel from
these camps about seventy-hye men
are at work blasting out an APP
proach to the tunnel and cutting
down its face. At the next point,
where work is being done there are
more than forty men and fifteen
teams making a crossing over a deep
hollow. This is about a half mile
from the tunnel and we have not
been farther but we could hear blast
ing on ahead and were told that
men are at work on almost the
whole line.
A gasoline air compressor on top
of the hill above the tunnel works
the drills at the entrances. The faces
are already cut down thirty or forty
feet and the work of going into the
hill will soon begin.
The road over all this first distance
runs on the hill sides and work is
always begun where hollows and
ravines cross it. These are leveled
by having culverts built and fills
made of the rock and dirt taken out
of the cuts.
There seems to be no scarcity oil
powder for this work. 1t is not un.
common for twenty-five kegs to be
used in one blast and we saw one
discharged that had more than fifty
kegs in it. This one tore off a bluff
of limestone fully fifty feet long anC
fifteen or twenty feet deep. The pow
der was in five holes and all wert
discharged at once Stones who's,
dimensions are ten and fifteen fee

places into the gulch beneath. Som

1t must be an "astonisher" to
those who, in collecting specimens,
have had to content themselves
with slivers of the ore, to find that
60 at least of the 100 tons of
mineral taken out of the shaft of the
Bill Scott mine, Cave creek, Newton
county. is a Brannerite straight, :"
which was mined with drill and
powder as any other body ore. 1t is
also stated in note, received upon
the subject, that the remaining 80
to 40 tons is no less a valuable and
interesting ore, being Smithsonite
which is more than half way an
oxide.
On Monday the Bald Knob Min
ing compay of St, Louis Mo, began
three shafts on the Wann property,
which adlons the North Star mine,
Omaha district, this county. The
locality is that brought into notice
last summer through explorations
of the TIMES Expedition. The Bald
Knob Mining Compay have large
holdings in the Omaha district, and
Che work undertaken by them is up
bn evidences OF good ore and plenty
'of it in sight, with other evidence to
show that the mineral is going to
stay with them as they descend.
Saying nothing OF the effect its late
discoveries will have npon prospect
ors and investors, it is in favor of
the sub-carboniferous ore field, Cave
creek basin, Newton county, that it
is the first one to answer the ques-
ton in full, whether North Arkan-
sas' remarkable types of zinc ore oc-
chr in nnantitu2v I'll
had been in part answered in the
case of the Bennett and Baker-Mc
Grath mines of Newton county,
Big Hurricane mine of Searcv coun-
ty, Georgetown mine Of Marion
county, and latterly in the Middle
Sugar Loaf basin, Boone county,
but never so effectively as in the case
of the Caye creek mines of Newton
county, And upon the principle that
it is only needed to go afterit to find
it, there is a good reason for believ-
ing that, where it is called for by APP
parent conditions of their property,
our miners and mine owners will
find frst-class surprises in store for
them whenever they go after the
ore as a product for market and not
for the sake of mere effect upon
themselves and their friends.

REQUEST TO THE UNIVERSITY
By Miss Lizzie P Allen-A Descendant
OF Ira Allen.

The University of Vermont has received
from the executor of the will OF the la h.
Miss Lizzie +. Allen of Derby, Vt. "A be-
quest of $4,000, for scholarships in the Uni
vcrsity.
If Gen, Ira Allen the founder of the Uni
Versity and was the last of his descend
ants to bear the family name. She was
born January 81, 1Sl1, in Randolph, Vir-
sinia, being the only child Of Charles j.
and Lizzie +. Allen, both Of whom died
in her infancy. Her father had purchased
the plantation on which she was born.
shortly before his death After the death
of her parents she was taken TO the home
of her maternal grandparents, Mr. and
Mrs. Sidney PuSfer. then living in Pco-
ria, H., later of Philadelphia. Pa. After
Mr.. Pulsifers death, in 1854 she removed
with her grandmother TO Derby Line, VI,
which was thenceforth her home She
died February 20, 1888, of consumption, in
hcrited from her parents, both of whom
fell prey to that disease. She was an
estimable young lady, interested in cdu-
cation ana other good causes. Her family
pride was strong, and realizing that her
life was short, she wished TO do some hing
to honor the naCo she bore. as well as
to benefit the woi Id. Besides the bequcst

Shall There Be Statue of Senator
morrill,?

In his speech at tho recent meeting of
the Association of Sons of Vermont in
Boston, Gen. W. w. Grout in the course
of an extended euoey of tho late Senator
Justin S. Morrill,, said
1t has never yet been stated anywhere
that ! have seen, but it is true, that MI
Morrill, was the author OF the resolution
setting aside old Representatives hail in
the Capitol to be filled with not exceeding
two statues of distinguished public men TO
be furnished by each State,
When he first tried to get this resolu-
ton up in the House, January C. 1864
Elihu Il, Washburne of Illinois said: Il
object, and he reason is that | propose
to introduce = resolution to remove the
scat of government from this barren and
Isolated country at the earliest moment :"
But Mr. Morrill, Went quietly forward
beautifylng the present seat of govern
ment, till now ii is the pride of the whole
country. He held to his resolution the
same as to his Land Grant colleg bill
which was once vetoed and to his tariff
bills, and the next time he called Il up he
had better luck and. after gem of a
speech by himself and remarks by few
other members, it went through the
House but was killed in the Senate. Not
discouraged, however, he got it into an
appropriation bill and it became a law,
as many similar propositions do at the
present time
Vermont already has two representa-
tNes in That illustrious assemblage of tho
dead, but who viii say that the man
whose brain conceived and whose hand
drew the law authorizing the States to
assemble in marble and bronze in this old
hail their great men, ought not to stand
there himself? Vermont's quota is al
ready full, but | believe If the State Of
vermont were to present 10 Congress the
statue of senator Morrill, it would be
promptly admitted to the old hail where
he commenced his public career. The peo-
pie Of Washington are already moving for
the erection of mis- statue in some public
place in that city, where ne sojourned for
so long a time and where there still lin
gers the radiance Of his useful, well-or
dered life. Ii the people of Washington
are thus astir in honorins the public viz
tues and public services ofy Senator Nor
rill, surely Nermonteis, whether in Ver-
mont or Massachusetts or elsewhere scat
tered over the face of the earth, will
heartily applaud the poetic Justice that
shall put his statue in the pace prepared
by himself for The faithful and great OF
this great republic.
Tho suggestion that Vermont should
furnish statue Of the grand old senator
is good ono; ana we trust that the next
Legislature VIII make an appropriate ion
for such statue, if assured that it will
be placed in the hail of statues in the Ma
tional Capitol.

SUPPRESS, NOT REGULATE" THE
ALCOHOLIC DRINK TRAFFIC.

All law is based on the fact that there
Is some wrong to be corrected or some
danger from which the public needs TO
be guarded. The alcoholic drink traffic is
a danger from which the public needs
protection. No one questions the right Of
the state to restrict or 10 wholly forbid
such trafflc. That power has been .f-
firmed again and again by the Supreme
Court of the nation 1t is not onIy the
right but the duty of the State 10 80 leg
iSIdte as ITO make ii easy to do right ana
difficult 10 do wrong"
Every attempt to regulate evils by IL
cense laws has resulted in injury to soci-
ETY. and failed 20 promote the ends pro-
posed by the advocates of a license policy.
To license the alcoholic drink traffic is to
give the sanction of the State to what is
universally conceded to be an evil Men
say: You cannot wholly prevent the sale
of alcoholic beverages, therefore license
and control the traffic" The therefore"
does not follow; for II it were true that
government cannot prevent the evil, that
is no reason why II should protect and
encourage II.
Sheldon Amos has wisely said: Where
law cannot keep pace with the prompt
ings OF morality, 1t must, at the least
help and never contradict moral maXims."
We 10 further and say, oivi law must
not Contravene the moral law. 1t is vast
~ better that men do wrong in spite of
both moral and civil law, than that they
do wrong in accordance with civil law
The State commits a crime against both
God and man when 1t sanctions wrong
doing. The Oft repeated remark, TT is
rot wise 10 have laws in advance OF Sub-
lie sentiment" is an unwise remark. "The
