The purpose of an independent
cotton buyer, as contemplated by the
Retail Merchants Association of this
city. is not to undertake to boost the
price of cotton beyond its real
worth, but to add confirmation to
the already we'll known fact that the
business men of the county seat ar :
determined that the producers of this
section shah find in this market
every condition that warrants them
in bringing cotton and other produce
TO this point The business interests
of Waxahachie cannot afford for
even the suggestion that this is an
unfair market to prevail, and when
only interested buyers are in the
market for the fleecy staple it is pos
sible, even without just cause, for
damaging reports to become Sircula
ted An Independent buyer, one who
is in the buying for no other purpose
than to see that the seller gets the
right price for his cotton, might not
be able to pay more than is already
being paid by the regular buyers but
the fact that such a buyer was Of
the streets would do much to estab-
lish a confidence that is now really
necessary. An Independent buyer is
a necessity.

and unreasoning discomfort, but GER
tainly ought not to be considered Sc
riously.
When an amendment is proposed,
let the proponent state the defect in
the statute the amendment is to rem
edy, and how it will affect it.
If the avowed purpose is to make
it impossible to use reason in the
supreme court did, let the mover of
the amendment formulate case of
restraint of interstate trade not con-
demned under the supreme courts
construction of the statute, which
ought to be condemned. Let us avoid
general expressions. Let us avoid
charges of improper motives. Let us
come down to concrete cases anu
facts and make showing for an
amendment that a lawyer and
legislator can understand and
weigh. and not be content with mere
rhetoric and language useful for
defamation.

which will permit the incorporation

the public exorbitant profits, their

message of January I. 1910, on the
interstate-commeree and antitrust

can be punished, and they, on the
other hand, be permitted under the

the public, and especially the bust
ness public, ought to rid themselves
of the idea that such a distinction is
practicable or can be introduced in
to the statute Certainly under the
present anti trust law no such dis
motion exists. 1t has been proposed,
however, that the word reasonable
should be made a part of the statute,
and then that it should be left to
the court to say what is reasonable
