cotton supply alone. Spot cotton Is now
selling at 10 cents a pound or over through
out the country, the highest prices seen
for a decade. That these prices will not
decline and may even go higher before
the cotton year Is over seems probable.
All these facts are very important 10
the Southern planters, but their importance
to tho whole country just now IL In
the light they throw on Organism. No
one, not even Mr.. BRYAN himself, can
spend more than ten minutes in n study
Of the American cotton market for the
year Just ended without perceiving that
the great rise in the price Of cotton that has
occurred has been due to the ~all-poweful
operation Of the forces Of supply and de-
mand and TO those forces alone. From
the fact that Mr.. BRYAN's speeches were
mostly addressed to Western farmers, the
popular conviction Of the fallacy Of their
arguments has been largely determined by
the rise in the price OF wheat and other
grain products Of the West; but OF course
II there was anything In the Bryan theory
that there was not enough money In circu-
lation and that hence prices OF things bought
by money we're Improperly depressed,
the cotton market would be as sure an In
dication OF It as the wheat market, and
even surer, because the value Of our
try's cotton crop each year is several times
that Of it's wheat crop. Mr.. BRYAN has never
seemed to lay great stress in his speeches
In the South upon the low prices Of the
staple peculiar TO that region as proving
his monetary theories, largely, perhaps.
because he was shrewd enough to know
that the Southern people. who have so
long raised cotton and bought and sold 1t
speculatively. were themselves aware Of
what the sole conditions were that affected
its value.
Ten-cent cotton is a great deal more
than dollar wheat, and It IA a whole barrel
