and favorable weather If they occur at all.
 On the other hand an early frost would send prices skyward. Killing frosts have occurred in the cotton belt as early as oc- tober g, and similar disaster may occur again. Until October is well advanced the bears will not become aggressive in the market, for they fear an early frost.
 It should be remembered that cotton is as much a necessity in this world as wheat. Men cannot go in civilized countries naked any more than they can go hungry and the mill warehouses are empty. The mills or all countries must have cotton, and ten- million-bale crop is not a bit too much to meet the pressing demands of the world. -mllion-bale crop Is well worth ten cents as things stand A nine -nillion-bale crlop should bring at least twelve cents, for it means cotton famine later on.

Examining pmeumatlc Mail Tubes

New York, September 26.-The commis- sion recently appointed by Postmaster Gen. eneral Smith to report on the proposed ex- tension of the pneumatic tube service for the mail arrived here from Boston last night and spent today looking into the worK of the system in this city. Later most of the members left for Washington, where their official reports will be made. The commission began work some weeks ago has visited most of the large cities east of the Rocky mountains. The members of the commission are:
 John A. Merritt, postmaster of Wash ington, D. G.; c. w. Vickery, superntend- ent of the railway mail service, Washing ton; G. T. Holloway, superintendent of the railway mail service, Cincinnati; F. l.. West, superintendent of the railway mail service, Chicago; B. F. Mckinley, assist ant postmaster of San Francisco; IT. P. Thrall, superintendent of the railway mail service, San Francisco; s. P. Taft, super intendent of the railway mall service, St. Louis; Maurice J. McGrath, superintendent city delivery, Chicago; J. M. Masten, su- perintendent of mail service, Brooklyn; L. c. Terrell, superintendent railway mail service, Atlanta, Ga; F. R. Monfort, post master of Cincinnati, O., and Postmaster Vancott of New York.

Steel Rails Still Too Hiqh.

The railroads are dissatisfied with the cut made by the rail combine, reducing the price of rails from $S5 to $26 ton, and few large orders will, it is thought, be placed. The price, too, will postpone sev- eral railroad enterprises that would be be- gun if prices were down to parity. The steel combine has agreed to maintain the price named, $26, for year to come.
 The steel rail combine is one of the most compact and powerful in the land. Large as the country is there are only six rail mills in it. The new one, now in course of construction at Ensley, will be the seventh. The six are the big Carnegie concern, act ing as chief dictator of prices, the Penn sylvania Steel Company, the Federal Steel Company, the Cambria Steel Company, the Lackawanna Iron and Steel Company and the National Steel Company. Every one of these concerns mas mills in Pennsyl- vana, with a single exception. Pennsyl- vania and Chicago and Ohio make the rails of vast country, and they can readily manipulate prices to suit themselves.
 Such state of things should be broken. There should be rail mills in the South, in Missouri, and in Colorado, and if possible on the Pacific coast. This entire country should not be tributary to Pennsylvania. It Is too large to be milked by one State.
 As steel billets are worth only $17 to SIS, the new price of the combine is plainly too high The railroads say that $21 or S22 would be nearer the proper level. In 1S9S the Carnegie concern was engaged in a desperate trade battle with the Illinois Steel Company, and the former cut the price of steel rails to SIS. There is too great discrepancy between SIS in 1898 and $26 in 1900, and the railroads will not place large contracts. The steel combine cannot compel the horse to drink at their mo- nopoly trough.

the Democratic candidate, because 1t clearly indicated the side on which the trusts are in this campaign. They are on the side of Mr. Mckinley It is safe to say that similar request from a na- tional committeeman of the Republican party for Mir. Mckinley would be instant- ly granted.
 In his Wheeling speech MT. Bryan took strong grounds against trusts. He stated the remedy he would apply if the oppor- tunity to do so should come to him. Let Congress provide he said, that, when ever any corporation, organized in any state, wants to do business outside of that state it must go to the Federal govern ment and get liscense. But, it must comply with the laws of each state in which it does business. MT. Bryan fur ther said that he would squeeze all of the water out of the stock of every trust so that the people would not be taxed to pay dividends on watered stock.
 E No doubt it is the strong position that MT Bryan is taking against trusts that caused the Standard Oil president to re- fuse to extend any courtesies to him. If the oil magnate had the thing to do oyer again it is probable that he would be governed by his judgment rather than his temper.

FROM "EACH AND ALL"

By Emerson.
 little thinks, fin the field, you red-cloaked
 clown,
 Of thee from the hilltop looking down; The hoifer that lows in the upland farm, Far-heard, lows not thine ear to charm; The sexton, tolling his bell at noon, Deems not that great Napoleon Stops his horse, and lists wita delight, Whilst his files sweep round yon Alpine
 height;
 Nor lsnowest thou what argument Thy life to thy neighbours creed has lent. All are needed by each one; Nothing is fair or good alone. I thought the sparrow's not from heaven, Singing at dawn on the alder bough; I brought him home, in his nest, at even; He sings the song, but it pleases not now, For did not bring home the river and sky; He sang to my ear, they sang to my eye. The delicate shells lay on the shore; The bubbles of the latest wave Fresh pearls to their enamel gave; And the believing of the savage sea Greeted their safe escape to me. I wiped away the weeds and foam, I fetched my sea-horn treasures home: But the poor, unslghtly, noisome things Had left their beauty on the shore, With the sun, and the sand, and the wild
 uproar.
 The lover watched hls graceful maid, As mid the virgin train he strayed. Nor knew he beauty's best attire Was woven still by the snowwhite choir. At last she came to his hermitage, Like bird from the woodlands to the The gay enchuntment was undone, A gentle wife, hut fairy none.

flundarinn Chinese Cities.

If the United States and China are friend " nations, as the administration affects to believe they are, although it's acts were warlike and are so still to a considerable extent, then 1t should send that hospital ship back to China with it's cargo of loot To admit that loot is to rob a friendly na- tion. It is larceny under or after trust, if the errand of the United States to Pekin were of a friendly nature.
 If the United States is engaged in waging war against China as it enthusiastically was up to a very recent period, even then the loot in San Francisco harbor cannot be held under the rules of modern warfare The pllaging of a city is violation of the in- ternational law as to private property in war Only barbarous nations of the Rus sian sort now rob individuals of property not needed in war operations. The footing of Pelzin and of Tien Tsin by the allies was a chapter of barbarism that the present age should be ashamed of. There can be no question but that each army of the allies was engaged in it--each being with another in securing loot both at Tien Tsin and Pekin. The arrival of hospital ship at San Francisco loaded with loot, shows that the Americans were not behind the rest.
 Worse than all, the loot on the hospital ship Solace belonged tc officers of the army, who are supposed to know the rules of modern civilization and modern warfare. How much plunder the privates secured may never be known, but it is plain that silk and silverware have become scarce in both Tien Tsin and Pekin. Tien Tsin was formally handed over to the looters for several days, and Pekin seems to have been systematically footed ever since its occupa- ton by the allies. This matter needs in- yestigation by Congress unless the country is willing to stand the stigma of barbarous practices-practices utterly abhorrent to the friendly pretenses of the administra- tion, and that cannot be justified in case war actually existed A Congressional in- yestigation that will land censure unspar- ingly may not be possible in the Fifty-sixth Congress, but it will be wholly possible and wholly advisable in the t -dty-seventh Con- gress.

A MoNopoLYrs IsrAKE

From the Savannah News.
 It is stated that Mir. II. II. Rogers, the president of the Standard oil Company refused to permit MT Bryans private car to be attached to regular train from Parkersburg to Wheeling, on the Ohio River Railroad, on last Thursday night The request was made by National Con- nlitteeman McGraw. It was such re- quest as would not have been refused to any railroad man in the country.
 The refusal is construed as indicating an intention the part of the Standard oil Company not to show any courtesies to Mir. Bryan No doubt the feeling en- tertained for him by every trust in the country is the same as that Of the Stand ard Oil Company.
 The great monopoly could have made no greater mistake than it did in refusing the slight courtesy asked for MT. Bryan. The refusal did not annoy Mir. Bryan in the least In fact, it is said he was rather amused at i+. It was the opinion of many of those present that the incl dent would make thousand of votes for

Cotton Crop Situation.

There are very divergent views as to the size of the new crop, as there always are in the last days of September. The bears say it will go to 1O,5OO,oOO bales; the bulls say it will be but 0,OOOOOO bales. The diff ference represents the divergence of views, not only among producers and mlddlemen, but also among mill owners. Even in a single firm there are men that differ as much as a million bales in estimates Of the crop When doctors disagree, who shall de- eide?
 If October should be hot and dry an ava lanche of cotton will be thrown upon the market, and this may depress prices for d time. High prices always have hurried cot ton to market, and they will have like ef- feet this year. It is not impossible that Co., toher receipts will be abnormally large, pro- yided no storms occur. But large October receipts will not determine the size of the crno for they will be due to high prices

ENGLISH ELECTION
Victory For the Conservative Party is
 Certain

Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
 London Wednesday, Sept. 10-Once more England is in the midst of political cam paign. And the last election of the century promises to be the least interesting of all on the confession of Herbert Gladstone the chief Liberal whip, it is impossible for his party to win over the 160 seats neces- sary for victory. There Is practically no sporting" feature in the contest. It is a certainty for the Conservative party. To the public the recognition of this fact is due the apathy with which the announce ment of dissolution was received, though the announcement came more suddenly and left shorter time for preparation than ever before
 Yet, while the campaign is robbed of it's chief interest by reason of its foregone conclusion, the issues and personalities promptly brought forward are as com- plete and expressing as ever drew Hodge to the polls. The issues may briefly be de- seribed as an appeal to the country by the Conservatives for support of their policy in South Africa, while the Liberals base their claims for votes upon the failure of Lord Salisbury's government to fulfll the many pledges of home legislation made during the last election.

THE MUiaMURER.
he Union Springs Herald.

From the Union Springs Herald.
 Some of the finest writing that has been done for the state press is that by MT. Lucien Julien Walker of the Age-Herald in his "Murmurs of the World" On last Sunday the Montgomery Advertiser pre- sented nearly column, under the head ing Music of the Spheres,'' which is simp- ly great. It was rich, the rich of richness. The reader would be thinking that the 'Spearer'' Gas 1t was signed) would eclipse MT. Walker, if such were possible, when, To and behold! to his utter amazement his sense of humor would be so severely struck that good, round laugh was the natural consequence. The "Spearer'' must con- tinue. Those who read his last Sunday s effort will surely look for his productions every Sunday henceforth.

parently his friend Some of those who witnessed the suffering were perhaps too sick at heart to have been of any service, had they been really needed.
 That physically fine type of toiler may be dead when this absolutely true statement of an accident, which occurred in Nine teenth street, between First and Second avenues, Birmingham, at 12:O5 D. m, Wednesday, September 26, 1900, is read by the thousands of people of Birmingham who are daily defied and outraged by fast drivers. The full extent of the mans in- Juries, or his name and residence, were not aseertained; but unquestionably he was gravely hurS
 There Is but one comforting fact about that hideous occurrences it was not caused by fast driving, and in that only 1t differs, and is perhaps the solitary exception, from the numberess similar accidents which outrage Birmingham. The team drawing that empty dray was going at a jog trot, to all appearances not exceeding speed of four miles an hour The accident was clear ly due to the unfortunate mans failure to keep a sharp lookout for the deadly dan- gers for ever rampant In the streets of Birmingham. The accident was not the fault of the driver, who seemed absolutely indifferent to the wounded mans suffer- ing!
 MT B. F. Roden and Mrs. Roden have re turned to Birmingham after stay Of sev- eral weeks at Hot Springs, Ark, where Mir Rodens health was greatly benehtted Asked what he did to pass away the time which must have hung heavy upon man of such great energy and busy life as or dinarily characterize MT. Roden, he an swered lacenieally:
 Talked cropsi"
 Mr. Roden met cotton growers from all over the south, and, passing his judgment upon what they said, he believes the cotton crop will be very short.
 Thomas G. Hewlett leaves Birmingham early this mo. ming for Washington ana New York on private business to be absent from home two weeks or longer. MT. Hewlett owns some house property in Washington which requires his attention.

FULL PLEDGED CITIZENS
Election Supervisors So Held in Case Of
 Porto Ricans

Baltimore, September 26.-"Naturaiized by annexation are the words entered opposite the names of Dr. Francesca Del Vale, his son and four other Porto Ricans on Balti- more citys registration books. The men presented themselves for registration in sev- eral voting precincts.
 The registration officials had apparently received instructions from the Board of Election Supervisors to allow the Porto Ricans to register, provided they complied with the residence clause. of the law which requires citizen to reside in a legislative district six months before being eligible to vote
 Isaac L. Strauss, counsel to the board, a few days ago gave an opinion that citizens of Porto Rico became citizens of the United States when the island was made part of United States territory. There are about twenty-five Porto Ricans in this city, who, under the ruling of the board will cast their votes in November.

In the Seventh District.

No matter what this or that politician may say the Age Herald has information that makes the reelection of Congressman Burnett look doubtful indeed. In point of fact every well-informed voter in the dis trict knows it is not normally Democratic. They also know that the reported return of the Populists to the historic party of the State is the veriest pretense The Pop ulists are supporting MT Spears with all of their old-time ardor and hopefulness, and Mr. Spears himself is confident of election, although he is endeavoring to do a good deal of still-hunting for the purpose of deceiving the Democrats. He and his Populist supporters are working early and late to carry the district.
 And they will do it unless the Democrats The district needs more work than any other in the state, if MT. Burnett is to be. reelected. Make no mistake as to that. It is not a walk-over in the Seventh. It is the toughest sort of fight, and a very doubtful one in result at the best. Let every Democrat in the district do his best. Nail the flag to the mast literally and fig uratively, and fight for 1t to the last | minute for work in November. The dis trict can be kept in the Democratic line if every Democrat will do his duty.

 A woman's political opinions are generally about as uncomfortable buttons on pa- jamas.
 A man tries to make a woman love him; a woman tries to make man make her love him.
 It is easiest for a widow to get married again because a widow never has any con- science left.

ACCURATE ENGINEERING
Two Ends of the Big Tunnel Brought
 Together

St. Paul, Minn., September 26.-President Hill of the Great Northern, has received from Chief Engineer Stevens a telegram stating that the east and west crews in the immense bore under the Cascad mountains have met. So perfect was the engineering work and so accurate the preliminary plans and surveys that the two forces working from opposite ends In the big tunnel brought the two ends together with scarcely the variation of an inch
 MT. Stevens says that it was the most &C., curate bit of work in the history of modern engineering. Now that the tremendous task of boring out over two miles of granite has been accomplished by 1000 men after three years labor, the work of laying the tracks is comparatively insignificant.
