THE CoRTELYoU SCANDAL.

The fact that Mr.. Cortelyou. the
chairman of the Republican National
Committee, occupied a position that
gave him an acquaintance with the
affairs of the trusts before he accepted
his present position justifies the state
ment that his action in collecting cam
raign contributions from them
amounts to a national scandal.
The Republican leaders are doing
their utmost to disabuse the minds of
the people of the suspicion that Mr..
Cortelyou has done or is likely to do
anything that is wrong.
The fact that the Republican lead
ers are making such stupendous eff
forts to defend Mr. Cortelyou against
the attacks that are being made upon
him shows they recognize that he is
in need of defenders.
In his speech at Baltimore on Mon
day night former Senator Hill of New
York said: From the day Mr.. Cor
telyou was made manager of Mr..
Roosevelt's campaign he has been dill
gently employed collecting campaign
funds from the very corporations
whose business operations and secret
affairs he had recently been investi-
eating. The motive for this extraordi-
nary action is scarcely disguised" Mr..
Hill, of course, said good many 9TH
err things about Mr.. Cortelyou. What
they were can easily be imagined.
Probably never before in this coun-
try was there a case like that of Mr..
Cortelyou's. The Republican party pre-
tends to be fighting the trusts, and yet
we find 1t openly stated in the news
papers that its national chairman is
calling upon them for campaign con-
tributions. And the fact must not be
overlooked that Mr.. Cortelyou knows
all about the affairs of the trusts, be-
cause Of his recent connection with
the Department Of Labor and Com
merce. 1t has been intimated that Mr..
Roosevelt, having him in mind as his
campaign manager, put him at the
head of that department so that he
would be in position to force the
trusts and various other combinations
of capital to make liberal contribu-
tions to the Republican campaign
fund, but. of course, there is no truth
in that intimation. Still, II will hardly
be denied that Mr.. Cortelyou's posi-
ton as the head Of the National Re-
publican Committee amounts, under
the circumstances. to n national scam
dal. No explanation that the Repub-
lican leaders make OF the matter no
denial that Mr.. Cortelyou is doing
anything wrong serves to satisfy the
people.
Mr.. Cortelyou may be handling Mr..
Roosevelt's campaign I'm a way 70 COM
mand attention and excite applause.
but from present indications he will
cost Mr.. Roosevelt more votes than he
win gain for him. Mr.. Hill, in his
opening campaign speech, hit the
weak point of Mr.. Roosevelt's cam
paign easily, and he will hit II many
times more before the campaign is
ended.

It Pays TO BE Polite.

In one of the churches of New York.
according to District Attorney Jer-
ONE, there was once an old woman
who insisted on bowling her head
every time the name OF Satan was
mentioned during the service or SER

centricily for many months, asked
her:
Madam, why do you bow at the
name of Satan? 1t is, not customary,

"Oh, 1 know that" said she, but it
doesn't cost anything to be polite, and
one never knows what will happen. {"

Cabot, Wis, Oct. 6.-The thirty days
serenade has come to an end, and the
young men who broke the worlds
charivari record are victorious.
On Sept. Prof. Verbeck, principal
of the High School, came home with
a bride, and when he was serenaded
that night refused to furnish refresh
ments for his tormentors. The latter
agreed to keep up the racket until
they were victorious, and they did so.
To-day Prof. Verbeck issued a state
ment acknowledging his defeat and
promising to give the serenaders a
feast. To celebrate the victory the
High School boys, who led in the mis-
chief, presented the bride tonight
with an elaborate and costly hall

THE SPOT AND FUTURE MARKETS

One of the leading New York papers
says that that city is to be the chief
and, practically, the only future cot
ton market from this time forward.
and that New Orleans is to be the
great spot cotton market. This state
ment is based upon the fact that VIII
liam p. Browne now makes New York
his headquarters, and that ne has Writ
ually abandoned New Orleans for his
cotton future business. Browne, Sully
and Price are all now located in New
York, and the price of seats in the
New York Cotton Exchange has risen
from $500 in 1899 to $500 at the pres
ent time.
Sully and Price have been in New
York since they began business, and
it seems on the authority above quoted
that the fact that Browne has changed
his headquarters to that city makes it
the great center of cotton speculation
Mr. Browne is, of course, big opera
tor, and it is understood that he made
q great deal of money in the season
of 1923, but If he stays in the
cotton future business many years he
will not have much to show for the
reputation he enjoys of being the
greatest bull operator in this country,
| If not in the world.
If the Southern farmers and coun-
| try storekeepers are wise they will OBJ
serve the operations of Messrs. Browne,
Sully and Price without taking any
part in cotton speculation. They will
be far richer at the end of ten years
by keeping out of the cotton future
market than If they risk their money
in II.
But the way cotton is coming into
Savannah there is some reason for
thinking that New orleans will not
be much bigger cotton port than
she is. Savannah's cotton commission
merchants, brokers and exporters are
showing great deal OF enterprise. sa-
vannah's cotton territory is being ex-
tended each year. 1t is estimated that
Savannah will get more than 1.5OO, 900
bales of cotton this season.
The weather this fall has been ex-
ceptionally fine for harvesting cotton,
and the indications are that the crop
will be larger on this account than 1t
was thought 1t would be at the be-
ginning, or even in the middle. of Sep
