The COTTON MARKET.

/
The big feature OF the cotton mark
ct, so far as II concerns the producer
OF this section is, that notwiihstand
ing 20 point decline in the futurs
market since last Saturday night. the
Bryan market is only Is lower.
Another thing which should be OF
much interest to all in this section is
the fact that the spot market OF Bry-
an, Is relatively higher than that of
either Galveston or Houston, and in
comparably higher than any other
point in the interior of the state. ex-
cept one
II is fact, that the p'yan cotton
buyers cannot afford to sell in the
markets last named. They would
lose money by doing so.
Liverpool opened and closed We'd
nesday about unchanged from Tues
day, with spot sales of 5000 bales,
which was considered, rather bad
feature. and considerably below trans
tons in that market a few days ago.
The American markets opened
about TO points lower and closed 6
to s points up from Tuesday. II is
believed by those competent to ex-
press an opinion, that there will be no
further decline at present. and there
should be slightly improved prices.
The New Orleans Times-Democrat'
estimate of the size OF the crop, H.
100000 bales, not including linters and
repacks. is regarded as slightly bull
fish, as $4,000, 600 bales was the popu-
lar belief.
A contributing factor TO the decline
in the markets is believed TO be the
profit taking of the bull organization.
and the fact that the decline was not
greater is evidence of the strong po-
sition OF the future market. Heavy
receipts at ports continue, and the
Liverpool and Continental demand
has been considerably, curtailed. but
Notwithstanding this. prices have
held up well, which is regarded as an
sign.

Jim Britt in Trouble Auain,

The latest reports from Gold Creek
say that the Basco who was beaten up
by Jim Britt is still alive and that Britt
escaped into Idaho. Reports received
since yesterdays issue are to the effect
that Britt and the Basco had trouble ut
Williams sheep dipping camp and that
Britt beat the Basco with his gun.
After the trouble Britt went to another
camp, stole horse and skipped out
AS soon rs Sheriff Clark heard of the
trouble he telephoncd TO Johnson's and
started two men after Britt. Sheriff
Clark left on No. 6 last night to head
Britt off. His capture is somewhat in
doubt us Britt knows the country thor.
oughly and has good start of the
officers.
Britt was in Il shooting scrapc last
year at Mnrdis and was held to appear
before the grand jury, but escaped pun.
ishmcnt through the failure of the grand
jury To indict. He may not bc SO for.

ELKo, NEVADA, FRIDAY, JUNE 10, 1908

The defense then filed notice of ap.
peal and Judge Bruce fixed the bond ut
800.
The Judgment in this case may seem
severe to some and to others it may
not seem severe enough. but to the IN.
DEPENDENT it seems to answer the de
mands of justice. IL is none to severe
for the Otfcnsc committed.
When man sticks Il gun in his pbck-
ct, gets drunk and acts in such Il man :
ner that pcaceablc citizens send for an
officer to dislrm him and when the Of
ficer appears he draws the weapon on
him and dareS him to take it, he is Il
dangerous man to I've ut large. This, i'll
short, is what Mr.. Mckinney did OH the
night of June 2nd.
After lengthy trial, in which his at.
tOrney exhausted every effort to secure
an aquittal. Mr.. Mckinney was con,
victcd. The verdict was in accord with
the evidence and the punishment given
him by Judge Bruce measures up To the
verdict Judge and jury deserve the
thanks of the community for their eff
forts to maintain law and order.
There is one feature of the case, how
ever, That the INDEPENDENT regrets.
That is the injury that Mr.. Mckinney
received ut the time of his arrest He
resisted arrest and was struck OH the
head with a cane by Constable Oudcr-
kirk. The blow was Il heavy one and
Mr.. Mckinney still shows its effects
This punishment he could have avoided
by submitting to the officers. That he
did not dO and the blow he received is
the direct result Of his conduct.
The verdict of the jury and the iudg
ment of the court meet with the .ap-
proval of the law abiding element of
this community. Elko has long since
passed the stage where men can commit
crime, defy the officers and hope to cS-
cape punishment. Those days will never
return and the criminally inclined will
do well to make note of.
The arrest, conviction and punish
ment of Mr. Mckinney on the charge of
carrying concealed weapons should bc
an incentive to the officers to break up
the practice. The men who carry guns,
slingshots and other deadly weapons
about their persons, do SO with the in
tcntion Of using them. They fill up on
whiskey, insult peaccable citizens and,
if their insults are resented, draw their
weapons and nsc them. Such men de-
serve no sympathy and the law should
be- strictly enforced against them.

Study the Goose.

There Is much to study about a
goose. Just observe flock Of geese
some day when you are out visiting
on a farm They'll give you amuse-
ment by the hour.
A goose hasn't the slightest idea OF
breadth or depth. The assertion that
every goose that passes through an
open barn door DUCKS Its head, no mat
ter If the opening be twenty feet high,
Is as true as can he, and, while goose
can't be made to believe that there is
no danger to its head as 1t passes over
the sill of barn door, 1t is equally
positive that 1t can creep through a
two inch augur hole or knothole in q
fence just as easily as 1t can 60
through q twenty foot door and with
more safety to its person. | have
laughed myself sore more times than
a few at the persistence Of some old
goose in trying to enter an Enclosure
through hole in the fence hardly
big enough to get its head through,
while a gate big enough for team OF
horses to pass through was wide open
within three feet Of the hole.-New
