THE MONEY MARKET.

In the New York market money gets
tighter and tighter. The weekly state
rnent made Saturday of the condition
of the clearing house banks shows that
the reserves were over a million and q
half dollars below the reserve required
by law. This reserve has been decreas-
ing rapidly for several weeks, each
weekly statement showing it to be lower
than the previous one. Still the finan-
ciers are not alarmed. This state of af-
fairs is brought about by the rush to
market of the big crops of the south
and west. The money IS not tied up by
men who wish to squeeze the market. 1t
is being put in circulation in the agri-
cultural districts, as Is evidenced daily
in this section of the country by reports
of unprecedented cotton receipts. Where
there was a hundred dollars at this sea-
son in previous years II the hands Of
southern farmers now there are thou
sands. Instead of being tied up in the
banks of the financial centres this
money is where it is doing good. After
it has been used in settling the debts of
our farmers and local business men
much Of it will find it's way back to New
York in the shape of deposits by our
banks where it will be used tC swell the
holdings of the banks there. In the
mean time the heavy shipments of cot
ton and grain to Europe VIII be the
means OF establishing there q credit in
our favor and there will lie no difficulty
in getting a plentiful supply of gold on
foreign exchange. While some financiers
and spectators at the commercial GEN.
tres may find the existing conditions to
their disadvantage the country general
ly is better off for them. The money
which will go back north after the cot
ton crop has been sold and much of the
local Indebtedness, some of several
years standing, liquidated, Ii will go,
not in payment OF debts held there
against us, but to be placed Cn deposit,
subject to draft by the banks in our
section.
In the meantime the secretary of the
treasury is doing all nc can to relieve
the money market by turning lose as
much as possible of the vast sum hoard
ed in the federal treasury. This he is
doing by anticipating the interest on
government bonds due October 1st and
by depOsiting cash with banks which
put up federal bonds as security there
for This is, we believe. The first time
this plan has ever been adopted. Here

vote and take away the nightmare OF
negro supremacy. By doing away with
this race issue we will raise politics tc
a higher plane in this state and will
hereafter conduct our campaigns OF
economic questions and purely political
issues as to national and state affairs
What was the sense of such declara-
tions by the party leaders in the cam
paign Of 1900 if there were no men to
whom these propositions were appli-
cable or to whom the principles in
in the party simply by the negro ques-
ton, why such suggestions at all? Was
not the natural conclusion to be drawn
from the arguments of our stump
speakers in 1900 that when the negro
was eliminated from politics there
would arise such a condition Of affairs
that the reason and the business inter-
ests Of the people were to be appealed
to to induce those then with us TO ad-
here to the principles of the democratic
party and those up to that time op-
posed to US to come over and join us ?
That was the understanding of the peo-
pie, and on that have they acted. But
some Of the party leaders have not
acted up to this and they are endeav-
oring to force all men heretofore voting
the democratic ticket to swallow it
whole hog or none," allowing them,
under party lash, to exercise no discre-
ton or self opinion. By this means
Ipba yr-hin ha int
party lines they drive ten out of the fold.
If the democratic party loses this cleo
ton it will be through the harshness,
vindictiveness and attempt at coer-
cion of the party leaders against those
men in the party who have availed
themselves of the pledges made them
by the leaders in return for voting for
the constitutional amendment.
The truth is the party leaders in this
state have been so used to implicit
obedience from the mass of voters that
they have not yet realized that the lat
ter have become independent thinkers
and voters on all political questions.
These leaders have not yet learned that
under the new order of things they
should abandon the coercive for the
persuasive tactics in conducting a po-
litical campaign. They have not yet
taken in the fact that there has been
a tremendous revolution in politics in
this state, brought about by the adop-
tion of the franchise amendment to the
state constitution. The sooner they
learn this fact and begin to act upon
it the better it will be for the party
and the state. We hope they will see
the difference between this and former
campaigns before it is too late for them
to rectify their mistake.

ROOSEVELT INDIGNANT.

Chairman Henderson has the second
time declined the nomination for con-
gress in his district. Baing asked to
reconsider his action as announced in
his letter to the notification committee
saying that he could not accept the
nomination. he says he must stand by
his first decision.
News comes from Oyster Bay that
President Roosevelt is indignant over
Mr.. Henderson's action. He is reported
as holding that Mr.. Henderson has not
given his real reason for refusing to be
again his party's candidate, and in
beating about for an excuse has adopt
ed one which reflects upon the republi-
can party in general and the president
in particular and puts them 10th in an
embarrassing position. Mr. Roosevelt
construes the congressman's action in
meaning that the latter declines to
stand for reelection becauss he thinks
the Iowa republicans woulE not tole-
rate the presidents position that the
trusts could not be controlled by tariff
legislation. 1t is said MI. Henderson
and his friends could have done moth
ing that would tend more to make the
presidents visit to Iowa an unpleasant
and embarrassing one.
From this last statement It looks as
if there is really more in Mr. Hender-
sons action than appears on the sur
face.
The president seems 10 think that
Mr.. Henderson had some reason be-
sides the one given for the course he
has pursued and, judging from his in
dignation threat one is lead to sup
pose that there must be some breach
between the Roosevelt faction and the
speaker and his friends Of which the
public has no knowledge. 1t may be

EDITOR CREECY'S ADVICE TO
ROOSEVELT.

Mr.. K. b. Creecy, the venerable and
gifted editor of the Elizabeth Ciey
Economist, in an article in his paper
on President RooseveIt's southern tour
and his speeches made in the south
has the following to say to him:
And now a few words of aged
counsel from one who has gained his
admiration for this adroit rendering of
a most difficult role on the stage of
human life. A battle half won is often
lost Consistency is jewel. Duplcity
is an accursed quality, most accursed
when it follows honeyed words and
sugared promises. Kind words are
golden, but when they turn out to be
hypocritic they are more hateful than
an adder's hiss.
''RoOSevet'S kind words have fallen
upon open ears and admiring political
friends and foes. They were the kind
words of a patroit and a conrade He
swept all heart strings by protesting
allegiances to all sections and know
ing no north, south, east or west, and
his broad heart was met by warm
hearts, and for the nonce, we were all
democrats and all republicans.
Let him make good his kind words.
Let him be the president of the whole
country When he utters democratic
words let him do democratic work
When he denounces trusts, monopolies
and conspiracies against the people,
let him stamp them out, though every
republican millionaire should cry out,
cruelty him! cruelty him!'''
