New Orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans, October N.-Cotton fu- lures opened steady at an advance or to 12 points on good cables and signs or colder weather for the cotton belt. The weather map was cloudy with some raln in the eastern half and moderate temper atures nearly everywhere, but snow was reported at Aremillo, Tex, and the fore cast promised much colder weather with snow and freezing In the northern sec tions for the western half of the cotton region. In addition the weather bureau issued storm warnings for the Louisiana coast on account of the tropical hurri- cane which has been central for day or two near the end of Florida. All this stimulated buying in the face of the ru- mored crop estimates of 15,600oO0 by a prominent crop expert and disquieting rews from the stock market. In the early trading prices were 10 to 13 points up. Scalping longs took profits heav- fly and shorts increased their lines with the consequence that at the end of the first half hour of business prices were only 3 points over yesterdays close on the more active months
 Reports from the spot market that local offerings of actual cotton were very light and that shippers were finding extreme difficulty in filling their requirements for the end of the month. gave the market u SOOu tOHe ITOIu tHt Ol tiic IT. ing on, and caused a small rise again. Bullsh traders claimed that the spot de- mand was extending over to cover ship ment due to clear in November. News from the interior was that farmers were less inclined to sell, and in many in- stances were hauling cotton back home from the gins. At noon prices were to 12 points over yesterdays close.
 In the afternoon session the market was quiet and prices barely moved. The week end statistics about balanced, as both the into sight and the out of sight broke all records. At o'clock prices were 2 to 10 points over yesterdays close.

RESTRAINT OF TRADE.

\ good deal is said from time TO
time about restraint of trade and about
| the reasonableucss of one form Of
restraint or another Evidently the
Governors of the Southern States think
that a restraint of trade which wall
artiflcially increase the price Of cM
ton is a reasonable restraint, Accord
ingly the conference of Southern Gov
crnors recently. held sent forth an APP
peal to the cotton ralSers of the South
to withhold from the market all the
remaining cotton crop, and reduce the
next season IS acreage by one fourth, so
as to force up the price of cotton. IT
was agreed that these Governors would
appoint county representatives in their
different States, such agents TO under
take 10 obtain a written pledge from
every cotton raiser TO cut down his
production OF cotton on the scale men
toned; that IS, by one fourth.
1t is difficult to understand how
there could be any such thing as
restraint Of trade unless this sort Of
a programme is such restraint. 1t is
not reasonable. either, because it op-
poses natural conditions, and would
necessarily have to he perfect or
gaulzation for the purpose Of restrain
ing production SO that prices Of cotton
would have to be raised.
In this sort of Il programme the
Governors of the Southern States Will
be sure to receive the condemnation of
the citizenship Of the United States,
even If they do not run counter to
the law. which we believe they Ger
tainIy win do in carrying out such n
programme.
II is 10 be observed, further. that in
undertaking TO carry out this pro
grammc, the farmers Of the South are
liable TO bring ruin TO themselves IN
case an uDlucLy cotton year should
supcrvcne. If they should Curtail their
cotton acreage by ouc-fourtb, and the
crop should turn out to be not more
than half crop, there would be such
shortage of cotton as to make cot

got for their crop and second. in the
extraordinary prices they would have

II is TO he hoped that Mayor-elecl
Park will keep up his role of preacher
IN the Salt Lake pulpits at Sunday

fortunate time and in an unfortunate
place on the Sunday evening before

that ignoblc appearance was damag

did not, i'm fact, materially affect the
result; for. doubtless. his adhesion to

before that time.
| II is 10 be hoped, however. that Mr.,
Park will be able to deal with his sub

he did with the subject which he uh-
dortook to cxpound at the First NJ. T..
Church on sunday evening last. He Is
quoted as saying:

it by no means follows that strife and

TO AMEND ANTITRUST LAWS.

! In the various propositions TO get
away from the Sherman anti trust law,
| the most inconsistent and unreasonable
is that which calls for tho repeal OF
that law, There is no reason why the
law should be repealed, but every rca"
son why il should be continued on the
statute books. subject TO such construc-
tion as the L, S. Supreme Court viii
give 1T; for the country is getting used
TO the law now. and is Just beginning
to find out what it means.
Another demand takes the form as
expressed by the St Louis Globe Demo
crat of making the law 'conform TO
the lines of the court s decision more
closely than the Sherman law does.
This is truly unique proposition, 1t
rcverscs the usual order of Judicial and
legislative procedure, The InNarlable
practice heretofore has been for the
courts to declare the meaning OF The
law, as it has been passed by Congress,
as applied 10 4 given case. Inns
new proposition contcmplates that the
courts shall first make their DEGREES,
and that then Congress shall make tue
law to conform 10 these dcllvcrances.
If this were not so clearly proposition
put, forth in earnest, one would suppose
that some Joker had originated the
idea. The notion that the courts VIII
take the initiative in legislation, and
that Congress shall thcrcupon enact
laws along the lines Of that initiative,
is so unique. so ingenious travesty
upon our American institutions, that 1T
could hardly have originated in the
minds of any other than those who are
