FUTURE DEALS WRONG
CORPORATION COMMISSIONER
SAYS PRODUCER IS VICTIM.
Fictitious Quotations Tend to Ms
lead the Cotton Planter as to
True Value Of Crop.

Washington.-Eoth the producers Of
cotton and the dealers in tina: commod.
ity are the victims of the system Of
trading in vogue on the Gotten exchanges
OF the country.
This is the burden of parts 4 and 5 Of
the report of Commissioner Of Corpora
tons Herbert Knox Smith on the conduct
of such exchanges. The practice of deal
ing in futures, as it is carried on at
present, is condemned, although the re-
port does not condemn the existence Of
the exchange.
"The brief discussion of general specu-
lation in this report says Mr.. Smith,
recognizes the possibilities for good in
hercnt in a great central market like a
cotton exchange, and the need that this
good be developed and evils eliminated
by regulations in line with economic
law"
The report is especially condcmnatory
of the dealing in futures, branding this
form Of speculation as pure gambling
and highly injurious to legitimate trade,
In quotations for "future' deliveries of
cotton the market is 50 uncertain and
so many elements of chance enter into
the transaction that all bids are made at
a much lower figure than those offered
for cotton actually in existence.
The effect of these fictitious quota
tions, the report points out, tends to mis-
lead the cotton planter as to the true
value of his crop, honestly grown. lr
addition, it leads brokers to "play" bot}
sides of the market to protect themselvc,
against loss in such trades. with the re
suit that the producer is forced to pay
in the end, while the farmer loses like

FUNDS INTACT
ATTORNEY GENERAL GUION REM:
DERS OPINION IN MATTER.
Right to Appropriate Money to Pay
Expense of Juncket Trip
is Questioned.

Baton Rouge.-An opinion has been
received from Attorney General Gull
on which upholds the position taken
by State Travelling Auditor Archie M.
Smith, that a levee board has not the
right under the law to make an ap-
propriation to pay the expenses OF
any of it's members as delegates to
a waterways, river and harH'r or like
convention.
The question recently came up IN
tho Tensas board Investigation, IN
which State Travelling Auditor Smith
criticised the board for its action IN
making an appropriation tc pay ne
expenses of the members TO the rlV'
er and harbors convention.
Some of the members of the board
took ISSUE with the statements Of the
travelling auditor, and contended tina
the board had a perfect right TO
make such appropriations, and to pay
such expenses as were incurred IN
the transaction of business and the
gaining of information incident to the
work in hand.
Several of the presidents OF other
leyee boards have written to the Gov
ernOr of the state in regard to the
matter, urging that they be permit
ted to send delegates to the Rivers
and Harbors Congress to be held IN
Washington, and that their expenses
be paid from the levee board funds.
Governor Sanders submitted the en-
tire matter to Attorney General Gul'
on, and the opinion rendered was to
the effect that the levee board finds
cannot be used for that purpose.
In his opinion the Attorney General
says:
"The funds of the le"ce boards
have been raised solely for the pur'
DOSE of building levees, and there is
no authority given them by the Leg
islature of the State for the use OF
the same, or any part thereof, for
any other purpose. I have reached
the conclusion that the expense OF the
delegates who may be appointed
should not be paid by The boards

MODEL ROAD IN PROGRESS.
Work Of Construction Under Super
vision Of the State.

Baton Rouge.-Splendid Progress
is now being made in the construc-
ton Of the model road which IS be-
ing built out Of Baton Rouge under
the supervision of the state. Already
about three miles has been built,
with the exception of the surfacing,
and this part of the work will not
be commenced until the entire road
way for the distance of the parish
is completed. The %surfacing mate
rial will then be selected and placed
in position.
The delay in in%augurating the read
construction in the parish was caus-
ed by the work on the drainage ca
nal that was necessary 10 build in
order to drain the water from the low
stretch just outside the city limits.
Now that the drainage has been ef-
fected, work on the roadway will be
pushed to early completion.
The progress has been further In
creased by the fact that a number
of convicts doing this work has been
added to the force, and instead of
twenty-five, there are nearly fifty on
