 In such case they will do themselves

 in it's turn is capable of taking a sane and efficient part in the actual work iof government, they can rest assured that a full and increasing measure of
 recognition will be given them. Above all. they should remember that their prime needs are moral and industrial. not political. It is a good thing to
 try the experiment of giving them a 1 legislature: but it lis a far better

giving his one time antagonist a good
job in the city government. He grad
uated from b%ootblack into butcher boy,
then porter and later tobacco salesman.
When twenty-four years of age Mr.
Cox was elected councilman. In those
days Cincinnati was ruled by the kes-
sler ring, and it is said that Cox was
instrumental in putting it out of ex-
istence. With the defeat of the ring
he came into power, and from that
time on, with occasional setbacks to
spun him on, he has increased his pres
tige as a leader. He became an ally
of Senator Foraker and helped make
him governor of the state and later
United States senator. The one time
bootblack had grown to be n of the
most conspicuous figures in his native
state.
In the early eighties Mr.. Cox began
dealing in real estate and by shrewd
speculation amassed a fortune. He
owns several blocks Of houses in Gin
cinnati and is also interested in street
railways, gas and similar corporations.
In person George B. Cox is a big,
handsome man of athletic build and
weighs more than 200 pounds. He is
not what would be called fat, for his
flesh is well distributed over a large
and powerful frame. His complexion
has the ruddy hue of health, his eyes
are blue, and his mustache and hair,
which bear but slight traces of silver,
are of that shade of brown which is
neither light nor dark. Mr.. Cox has
been a delegate to the last three ma
tional Republican conventions.

the probable successor OF senator

Republican state committee, is one of
the most notable public men of the
state and for years has been a political
power in Cincinnati.

mother by backing boots and selling
newspapers.

and usually came out victor. He Is

Speculation in the very near future will be governed on size of the estimate which the majority of traders expect of the Government next Saturday week, al- though the installments of the ginners' re- port will have some little weight in the framing of values.

 west since Oct 18th than what will be re-
 ported for the eastern and central portions of the belt The percentage of crop ginned for the entire belt will probably be from 70 to 50 per cent more than what was re- ported about one month ago which would give a total number of bales of about B. GOO. 900 bales. If 45 per cent, about 9,300,- 900. sst Is not likely that for such a state- of market, traders will confine their cal- culations to what the bureau estimate will be.

HAYWARD, VICK & CO.'S COTTON
 LETTER.

NNnEln & fAunCes MHrH.t
 NEW ORLEANS. Nov 21.--Those bears who had fondly hoped to see lower prices at opening of the week in the cotton mar ket were disappointed At the first call the trend of prices seemed to be in favor of the short side, but crop estimates were wired into the market thick and fast and some of them were too low for the more nervous shorts. who started covering Their buying gave the market an altogether diff ferent tone and kept prices well above the level of Saturdays closing for the greater part of the day. The more conservative bears said that the advance and the accom- panying cleaning out of a portion of the weak short following only put the market in healthy condition from the viewpoint of the bears.
 The market opened steady with prices from one to three points lower than the closing of Saturday Liverpool was about as expected. and New York came easy at . decline of from three to seven points. the crop estimate of I1ss4 900 bales put out by A. Norden & Co responsible for the easinesS in New York. The estimate also had some effect in the local market. but before the bears had made any great use of 1t. it's influence was offset by an es- timate of 11.5O0,000 from Latham. Alex ander & O., and another guess of 11250.00O from the Gulf Ports Trading Co. The latter concern put out an estimate of lOOOO,OOO last November.
 ing dull at times and brokers put their energies into guessing. The two lead ing commercial papers of the country seem ed to be keenly competing for the crop views of every cotton man in the South and much money spent in wiring guesses from all parts of the South to New York These estimates and their average will probably appear by the middle of next week and can not fall to be of interest The census department favored the local | trade with a dispatch to remind it that 1t was still in the estimating business also
 The dispatch said that a bulletin relating to the amount of cotton ginned prior to Nov 14th would be issued at Il o'clock ! our time tomorrow. With the Governments | estimate of the crop only a few days away, traders will eagerly seize upon the data fur | nished by the census bureau for information which will help them in guessing at what the Government figures will be.

WALL STREET. REVIEW
SALES OF STOCKS SHOW
 FALLING OFF.
Notwithstanding the Decline In Activity. Prices Are Well Maintalned.--- Market Quiet and Strong
 Throughout Session,

NEW YORK, Nov. 21--Aggregate sales of stocks fell off today, but notwithstanding the decline in activity marking shrinkage in the active demand for stocks prices were well maintained.
 The market is best defined as quiet and strong The causes of the falling off in business were not very clear The fact of broken week ahead on account of the Thanksgiving holiday may have been motive. There were some intimatiohs that the expectation of an immediate deci- sion of the Northern Securities suit might be disappointed Wall Street clings to a conviction that the decision of that suit | nouncement affecting the transcontinental railroad situation and the prospect of its delay discouraged some operations Union Pacific was noticeably strong. however, as were St. Paul. and the bonds in any way related to the Northern Securities adjust menL
 plies in the money market may have admon- ished some of the speculative element l against excess of commitments but such action does not explain the strength of the duller trading The enlargement Of gold bars for export to Paris this week was added to by an amount of several hundred thousand dollars and inquiry for all avail able gold bars were urgent at the assay of- flee. Call money loaned at 8 per cent but did not hold at that until the closing Chi cago exchange rose to 20c premium. against 1 Oc last week. marking the continuance of the flow of currency to New York, while the movement of the new corn crop was scarcely commenced. explaining the light interior needs for currency.
 The industrial department continued rcla- lively conspicuous and there was an ocea- sional movement in that department on the part of stocks long time dormant pre- vious quotations running back over a year in some of these.
