THE COTTON MARKET.

New York, Nov 15.--The cotton market today was again extremely active and unsettled with prices showing generally downward ten dency until covering and renewed bull support caused a partial rally in the late trading. The close was very steady but last prices still showed a net loss of from to 19 points.
 The opening was barely steady at a decline of to, II points and active months sold 13 to Is points below the closing figures of yesterday right after the call as result of over night selling orders, liquidation and bear pressure inspired by weak ca bles continued reports of full gin hing returns and further claims of less active spot demand.
 Offers were heavy but were well taken at the decline and after the publication of a census report show ing a very active consumption by do- mestbc mills the market rallied $ or 9 points from the lowest. Out side demand failed to broaden how eyer and prices soon weakened again under continued liquidation.
 At first the market showed resist ance but as prices worked down ward the selling for long account be- came more active while bears gained confidence, with the active months showing a loss of about 25 to 27 points in the late trading.

At this the son was most c~restfailen,
but upon his return he went about his
work with such ambition that at the
end of the term he found himself in the
coveted place. When he went home
that year he felt very proud. 1t would
be great news for the old man.

THE RACE UPRISING AGAINST WILSON.

1S HE Italians, Poles and Huns have now formally in massm meet
lngs in New York and elsewhere expressed their indignant
sense of the injustice of the comments upon their national
tiles by Woodrow Wilson as a teacher of history, the Huns taking
their turn last night and receiving an epistolary apology for the
offensive views entertained. Unfavorable reflections upon the race
Of naturaized citizen are always acutely felt and deeply resented.
and in such cases the resentment lasts. Probably the Italians,
Poles and Hungarians who have held indignation meetings would
pay no attention to these aspersions on their parent stocks if the
author was in inconspcuous private life and was not put up to
ask for their SURFACES for the highest honor in the land. A Presi
dent, with his great prerogatves, power and influence in govern
ment can do much to affect the welfare of the immigrant, and if
his views or prejudices are hostile to a foreign race the effect must
be unfortunate.

THE HOPE OF THE REPUBLIC.

II EUTENANTGENERAL SIR ROBERT BADENPOWELL
LIZ had a right to be proud of his Yankee boys Saturday and to
proudly say, "Now Pm an American" Five thousand Boy
Scouts from New York, New Jersey and Connecticut in a New
York armory showed the English founder of their order that our
republic can depend on its rising generation in war o. peace. The
lads wigwagged and relayed messages, threw lassoes, scaled walls,
built bridges and towers, revived the drowning, went up rope lad.
ders and saved people from fire and performed many other feats
of scoutcraft, woodcraft, camp life and the battlefield. There was
a guard of honor of twentysix blind Boy Scouts, and there was
a battalion of Chinese Boy Scouts from Chinatown to give an idea
why the republicans are winning in China. 1t was a wonderful and
thrilling spectacle and it showed what the rising generation is

THE DEATH PENALTY IN NEW JERSEY.

the electric chair was substituted for the gallows for
wy the execution of criminals in New Jersey sentimental
olamor was stiled. 1t has been revived at Trenton with
a proposition to abolish the death penalty. Warden Osborne, of
the State Prison, doesn't like to figure in executions, and, instead
of resigning his job to some man with more backbone, he asks that
the State shall deal leniently with murderers of all degrees and
just provide them with prison accommodations until some future
Pardons judge shall set them free. There are States in which the
abolition of the death penalty can be more safely tried than in
New Jersey. We are situated between two great cities, in which
the criminal classes abound, and New Jersey communities are
exposed to their depredations, and our highways are made unsafe
by them. There are also dangerous criminal elements in our own
cities to deal with. The severity of the States laws constitutes a
means of protection. Relax it and the crime of murder will in
crease in the State and lynchings will supply the place of formal
executions.

LLNCOLN'S BIRTHDAY.

m BRAHAM LINCOLN, whose birthday Americans keep today,
TA was prominently the martyr President. Two other chiefs
of the nation have fallen by the hands of assassins. but Gar
fields slayer was a disappointed Office seeker and McKinley's a
mere mad beast in whose brain was n 10 notion more defined than a
general hatred of all rule. Lincoln at the browning point of his
nation saving career was shot down by one who believed he en-
bodied the rage of a conquered section. That spirit of hate has
long ago faded out, and the reverence and affection of an undivided
people are now the annual tribute to the memory of the great COM
lnoner and liberator. In it's homage to the great war President the
republic knows no North and no South. At once simple and tact
full gentle and forceful, diplomatic and original, he fused all the
best traits of American democracy, into a life that sets the mark
for every patriot.

~WHAT EVERY HOUSEWIFE SHOULD KNOW,

n r. was an excellent idea for the New JERSEY State department
u of weights and measures to put into convenient pamphlet
form, and send it out free to anybody who will write for ii,
superintendent Waldron's What Every Housewife Should Know
The pamphlet should be distributed widely through the State. This
admirable treatise on domestic economy has been reviewed by The
STAR and other papers and readers have a general idea of it's con
tents. But it would be well for every householder to obtain the
complete text in pocket form. BY following out the instructions
therein as to marketing the cost of living may be greatly reduced.
What better business can the State engage in than that of instruct
ng its citizens in the way this pamphlet does?

MAKE A DETERRENT AT ONCE.

TT2R FRAUDULENT claims under the employers liability act will
be apLenty if the criminal courts do not at once. by their
severity, supply a deterrent. Perjury in such a case is a
double crime, and should be doubly dealt with. The law is very
much to the disadvantage of the employer, who may be innocently
nulcted in damages for large sums by employees and others having
no scruples about making false affdavits in consideration of the
rewards. A lenient Judge in such a case is a Judge who ought not
TO be on the bench.

BY trying his skin aiopgalines which
he had never atfennpted before. Court
Officer Peter DELANEY has become the
general utility man about the Second
precinct police station. EVEN the in
tricate and delicate machinery of a
clock mas succumbed to tho wiles of
Peter. The clocks in his pailiwick are
well known for their accuracy, due
chiefly to his watchfulness. 1t is also
a matter of record that the locks in the
establishment are an mended by the
court officer.
He has handled the gliding brush
with success, and there are many EVIL
dences of his versatility distributed
about the station-house.
The other day a question arose at
police headquarters as to when a po-
liceman was on duty?&' Chief Corbitt
and Captain of Detectives Carroll were
of the opinion that a policeman was
always on duty. Chief Corbltt added
that no good policeman would be
found waiting to be ordered to do duty,
whether he was in citizens clothes or
not.

chief, "who was denoted to the rank
of sergeant for failing to stop a fight
