cock, in company with press represen-
tatives, visited Kit Helton, the wife
murderer, in his cell for the purpose
of learning his wishes regarding hi;

MERITS OF COTTON.

The universally Of cotton specuia
ton even now surprises the most eX-
perienced members OF the trade Th5
great merits of cotton as a Spe1uia-
tive commodity are in particular two
first it's durability for though it would
lose a little weight it could be kept
for 10 years without any deterioration
in quality, whereas wheat is apt to
become weevily in year or two ard
corn soon gets heated and has to be
sold for what it will bring. Second
cotton is literally as good as gold all
the world over because it is an article
of universal consumption. No wor. 'e!'
then that the New York cotton ex-
change has large annual accessions to
its membership. No less than 80
houses have purchased seats wilhin i
year An interesting fact, too, is that
large percentage Of these were Wall
street houses. In fact the Wall street
contingent on the cotton exchange to-
day is as large and financially ten
times as strong as the whole stock
exchange was in its earlier days. Big
stock houses find that their customers
| like to trade in cotton and to save com
missions they join the exchange. This
widening OF the speculative field in
this country is of itself insignificant Of
its enormous increase in wealth: cs-
pecially within the last decade. Or Ii
we go back a generation or so we find
the growth still more remarkable; the
country has grown so wealthy, being
as Mulhall, the English statistician
points out, the richest in the world
that there is large surplus of money
that is bound to be employed not in
business and investment merely but
in out and out speculation.

CALLS TURN ON "DEAR TOM"

Hon Thos c. McRae wrote quite a
leaetiay article few days ago in
which he undertook to show that dur
ing his lengthy service in congress
Senator Jones "aint done nothin' no
how"
Judge C. w Phillips, Of Newport
calls the turn on McRae in great st"ic,
by reminding Dear Tom that he,
too, has been and is now representing
the people OF Arkansas in congress,
and very pertinently asks Dear Tom
what he has done for Arkansas any
how. Judge Phillips card in the In.
dependent is as follows:
