PARTY LINES ARE FADING.

All over the country it is noted thaf
the lines of political partisanship are
fading rapidly and plainly. 1t Is ex-
pected that the grosser expression, as
indicated in the national organizations,
win be the last to disappear though
even in that field the lapse has been dis
cerned and seriously commented upon
by the Leaders.
Among all the grave things that have
risen in the past few days to engage
popular attention, there is nothing so
eonspicuously good and advantageous
as this. 1t will do more to bring the
whole people to their senses than any
thing short of great war. 1t viii
bring the alleged leaders up with a
round turn and demonstrate the uniat-
tering fact that they are not necessary;
1t will give tone and direction to the
popular thought and make it dependent
Upon its own wisdom and farsightedness.
rather than upon the win or wish OF a
group of men heretofore composing the
real autonomy Of the parties.
Anything that forces the commonalty
to think, and weigh out its own course
and destiny, is a public blessing, since it
eliminates the political sharper and high
binder and relegates the selfish element
to the rear. 1t is Indicative Of better
sentiment in the civic body and a larger
interest in the affairs of government on
all sides, and that is what has been
needed in America for many long
year. For, had it been in vogue during
the past quarter century, we would
have less to complain of now in the way
cf corporate rayage and official wrong
doing.
When the day dawns that only the
people shall have first and last decision
in the electoral affairs of the country ;
when the "boss," the ringster and the
henchman are unknown, and the word
of choice, election and confirmation are
with the primal authority, the nation
will be cleaner and happier, with power
and confidence and sway never known
in its history, and the example will be
Tor the good of the whole world.
No clean-hearted American cares how
soon the change is wrought; the sooner
the better for him, for he will be needed
infinitely at such turn in the political
food; he is not needed now, except to
save some desperate situation that has
gotten away from the leaders and lieu
tenants, and threatens society as vel
as the party. The home itself win cut
an immense figure in the new deal, ant
this will be God-send, because al
things are, and have been, the home in
fluence in American politics has beer
nil, and where the home spirit does no
operate there is danger.
We shall hail the hour OF freedom
with honest saatisfction on account o
the superb possibilities inalienable ii
the doctrine of public and popular con
ception and control.

A MEXICAN BOY DIES IF
 D|PTHER|A
Every Precaution Taken To Prevent Spread of Disease and Is Second Case Found Here In Past Year,

The body of Juan Coronado. a ten year-old Mexican boy, who resided with hls parents at 25B Chihuahua Hiil, was buried yesterday afternoon at o'clock. He died of diphthena after an illness of a few days.
 The lad took i'll several days ago, and vas confined to bed. His pa- rents did not suspicion that he had diphtheria, and no physician was call cd until yesterday morning, when the parents sent for Dr. Diver After a thorough diagnosis the doctor pro nounced it diphtheria, and immediate ly reported the case to the city physi- clan. A quarantine was raised and every effort taken to prevent the spread of the disease. The lad died few hours after the case had been discovered.
 Only one other case of diphtheria has been found in Bisbee during the past year. This was a child of Mir. Rogers, living on Higgins Hill. This case was immediately placed under quarantine and a close watch kept over it. About two weeks ago the city physician made an examination and pronounced the child cured, the household goods were fumigated, and every precaution taken for the pre- yention of the spread of the disease. Where the Mexican lad contracted the disease is a mystery to the city phy- sicfan. A close watch is being kept over the city, and if any new cases de- velop they will be immediately placed urser the direction of the health oiII- eers.

NEW YORK COTTON FUTURES.
NEW YORK MOTION.

New York. Nov. 29.--The cotton market had quite a sharp advance today and trad ing was more active, Sales were estimat ed at 400,0o0 bales and the close was very steady at a net advance of l6@ 22 points. The opening was steady one to seven points net higher in response to high CT Liverpool cables. It was estimated that December notices representing about 30. h~ies were in circulation. but there was a good demand in the open market for that position and it soon became evident that the notices were being stopped by the De- cember bull clique.
 This led 10 further gains and around mid day the upward movement accelerated by a private crop estimate of only 10.3Ss, 900 bales. Late in the day prices showed a net advance Of 27d3O points on the active months with January selling at 10.

 New Orleans Nov. 2S.-Developments ovel the holiday were decidedly in favor of high CT markets. In financial circles conditions were much improved. Yesterdays weekly statement of the Bank of England was very much better, its reserve in proportion to lia- biiities having increased from last weeks ss7s per cent to, to 49ss , pss cen srk of si per cent. three weeks ago, when the crisis was at its worst. Other favorable signs are the hardening of exchange rates ana the easier quotations for money in the London market. to 6iz per cent. both of which foreshadow a lower discount rate by the British and German banks in the near fu- ture.
 Another significant feature is that the United States government has found 1t nec- essary to issue more than s35,00o,00O of one year treasury certificates. Under the circumstances it Is thought that conditions in the business world will soon assume their normal aspect, and it is hoped that confi- dence will soon be restored and that the banks will be doing business on the basis of currency payments at an early date. While the cotton market was favorabiy af- fected by this change, for the better as smallness of the movement for the week due principally by the receipts from planta- tions, the thirty counted interior towns promising to show slight loss in stocks against an increase of about 5o.o00 the cor responding week one year ago. figured about 100, 900 less than last year, about 4ll'OVo blb,OOU making the totdt tO date only about 4,533,O0O vs. 5.636.000 one year ago. or about 1,103,oo0 less. Many crop estimates were made public today but by far the most influential one was that or an ex- government statistician which placed the probable yield at 1O.33S.O00. The south western Cotton Buyers Association or rex as estimated the probable crop of that state. exclusive of the Indian Territory at 2,335,000. Last year Texas proper mane 405S.00O Under the influentill forecasts as to the probable supply of this years crop 1t is not surprising to witness such change in sentiment and in prices iavors- ble to the farmerL
 Values scored a further advance ot near ly $2 per bale today, January having been bid up to IL. .07 with trading rather lively considering the restriction that has been piac- ed upon operations, and as result, theie was more activity in spots at pri ;es 1s e A : higher. Traders are looking for tullish and active market pending the government crop estimate on December 10th. The ss- timate of The Times-Democrat will be pup lished next Monday.

 The wheat market opened weak owing chiefly to a decline of Id in Liverpool. Liberal receipts in the Northwest. however. had considerable bearsh influence earlier in the session, selling by commission houses and pit traders wal general The greater part of the offerings were taken 0y 3 leading commission house which was sup posed to be covering short sales.

 December ranged between 94A@95A and closed at 95c.
 Excellent weather for the marketing of the new crop of corn was responsible in a large degree for the weakness which pre- vailed in the corn pit throughout the ses- sion. The break in wheat and a moder- ate decline at Liverpool were additional bulish features. The volume of trade was small. The close was weak.
 May opened ss %c lower at. 55 @55 Sc, sold off to 5i7sc and closed at 55c. Decem- Der ranged between 54 54%c and closed at 54Ac. Local receipts were Ill cars with P of contract trades.
 There moderate selling of oats early by a leading long and this led to liquidation by small holders and resulted In considera- ble weakness. The market was heavy all day. The weakness of wheat and corn was the prominent factor.

 December sold between 46% @47bc and closed at 467sc. Local receipts were 1S6 cars.
