Favor of Exchanges.


 "The farmer, purchasing horse on an exchange, governed by similar rules to the cotton exchanges, could not tell whether the horse would weigh 300 or 1500 pounds. I am in favor of cotton exchange, connected with a net work of warehouses. where the man who wants cotton can get it in quantities and grades just like he wants 1t, from the people who raise 1t, and their merchants and banker friends who will help them to protect its price. The present system of hedges, which costs the cotton industry not less than S10,o00,000 per annum, would be dispensed with. That system would perish with its parent. the illegitimate exchange. If there is to he speculation in cotton, 1t ought to be in actual cotton, and to the extent that gambling in futures detract from trading in spot cotton, it injures the price of spot cotton. This is according to a well established law of economies When we have such an exchange as have sug gcsted, prices will cease to jump like a nervous child at every noise. and the dis honest cotton buyer will be deprived of this much used device to defraud the cot ton producer. I do not mean to say that cotton buyers are as class dishonest, not at all but there are some who do not tote fair on market quotations. and the constant fluctuations of the market make ir possible for them to skin 1t, to the hurt of the man who sells cotton.

Postal Law Changes.

After July special delivery stamps will no longer be required upon letters if the sender wishes to reach the recipient sooner than in the ordinary mail. Ten cents additional postage with the word Special" marked prominently on the envelope will be all that will be required. Everyone should take notice that this means I2 cents for an ordinary letter. Even now some people drop letters into the mail with nothing but special stamp on them, thinking that is all that is needed. While this means much more work for the postoffice people, it will be great conven- fence for the public, as there will be no more hunting around on Sun day for special delivery stamps.
The Coconino sun., 1907-06-06

In the first place, the letter was not written in human blood, and instead of being signed by the Black Hand," two blue hands were affixed as signature. Now, two blue hands may be infinitely worse than one black hand, but until we are further enlightened on the subject we are compelled to ignore the warming .' Also the fact that there were no skull and crossbones or coffin pictured on the epistle of warning demon strates the ignorance of the sender.
 As to the presumed motive of the bloodthirsty writer, he has probably misconstrued certain ar ticles which have appeared in these columns. The Silver Belt is not apologizing for anything 1t has ever said on this subject, and never will. Several weeks ago we published an editorial in which the influx of foreigners into this city was deprecated, and although no prejudice, which might be con strued as islander, was expressed, the Silver Belt did state that Americans should be given prefer ence over foreigners in securing positions in the mines. The letter received at this office yesterday convinces us that our views then expressed were correct, and we will abide by them, despite the in- timidating efforrs of all the red or black or handed, hag-insult- tng, government destroying an- archists in the United States, Eu- rope, Asia and Hades.
 We still hold, however, that the writer ai the letter is sadly de- fioient in up-to- date black -handism and we will have to pass him up unless he shows more intelligence in his correspondence. Arizona Silver Belt.
