RIOTS AND DELEGATES.

Congressman Monde in his attempt to prove
that Taft was honestly nominated at Chicago made
the assertion that many of the conventions which
elected Roosevelt delegates to the Chicago conven-
ton were riots, while the conventions which elected
contesting Taft delegates were harmonious to a
fault. The inference was that delegates elected by
conventions approaching riot were not representa-
tive
Mondell was right in his allegations. Many of
the conventions which elected Roosevelt delegates
to Chicago approximated riot This was true be-
cause the bosses and machine men accustomed to
run conventions in accord with their own sweet will
found the people in control this year. They could
not run things according to their ancient CUSTOM SO
they proceeded to start trough house." with the
assistance of buns, ward heelers, and plug uges
This failed to stop the election of delegates in
accord with the wishes of the people, so these bosses
withdrew to the quiet of some room back OF bank,
law Office, saloon according to the political ex-
igencies-and there two or three of them picked a
slate Of Taft delegates. Naturally such caucus OF
bosses which the people did not want to attend and
did not attend was not as rotous as convention Of
the people, which the bosses tried to break up.
There are many cases on record where toughs

WHY is IT?

Why is it, if the Republican party IN New York
State is against Tammany Hall and the corrupt ring
that runs New York city-the ring that stands back
of the Rosenthal murderers-that the Republican
party has never cleaned up New York city by State
legislation?
The whole nation knows the answer it is a ma
tional scandal the two machines, the Republican
State machine and the Tammany Hall machine, are
working together that is the bosses in both parties
make common cause.
Murphy is at the head of the Tammsny Hall
machine, that runs New York city Throughout all
the Rosenhal developments the phrase "a prominent
politician" keeps running through the daily reports
like red thread. District Attorney Whitman is
after the "hgher-ups." Who are they? Tammany
Hall politicians!
William Barnes is at the head of the Republican
State machine. Why does he not declare war on
Murphy? What is there in it for him?
The Washington times., 1912-08-05
POPULAR GOVERNMENT.

The reactionary press is having much to say
about the selfconstituted leaders Of the Progressive
party, but we are indebted to Mark Sullivan, of Col
liers for this quotation from the Wall Street Jour-
nal, printed during the Republican convention:
At Chicago very little of the inside work became Of
public knowledge. 1t necessarily secretve. The
day before the convention organized voluntary
mttee created by common consent, consisting Of
eight delegates. Six Of these United States SEN
ators-Root of New York, Smoot of Utah, Penrose Of
Pennsylvania Lppett of Rhode Island Crane Of Massa
chusetts, and Sanders Of Tennessee. This selfap.
pointed strategy committee planned feature of the
convention, every detail, every conceivable
emergency.
Even to the stealing of enough delegates to force
the fraudulent nomination of Taft!
Pretty fair for that party which at the rule
of the people and tries to create about
man rule!
The difference between those self-appointed
leaders and the "sef-apponed" leaders of the Pro-
gressve movement is that those bosses had the ma
chnery of great party in their hands to carry out
their necessarily secretive" work, while the men
accused of appointing themselves leaders in the
Progressive movement have only the confidence of
the public to back them.
The difference between tyranny and democracy!

THE ISSUE IN NEW YORK.

Murphy gets New York city as his division of the
spoils. Barnes gets the State as his share. Murphy
is the head of the New York Democratic party.
Barnes is the head of the New York Republican
machine.
Murphy is for Wilson. Barnes is for Taft.
Barnes lets Murphy and Tammany Hall pillage
New York CITY, Murphy lets Barnes reap the profits
Of graft upstate
Woodrow Wilson dare not and has not denounced
Tammany Hall and Murphy. He needs New Yorks
votes.
Taft has appointed Barnes the chairman Of his
campaign committee. He needs New Yorks votes.
Does anyone doubt what is the moral of this
situation? Certainly not. 1t is that Theodore
Roosevelt should be elected President of the United
States

delegations went home with their tails between their
legs to tell the bossed organizations that had sent
them to Baltimore of the dawn of and un-
familiar era.
Now says Governor Wilson:

New York, but all along the line 1t is the only proper
thing for me to do.

NEW YORK COTTON
TAKES A DROP

Low Level of Liverpool
Cables Close of Futures
Barely Steady; Spot

New York, Nov a.-There was
renewal Of bullish activity in the cot
ton market today and after an early
reaction, prices made new high rec
"rds for the season, with the close
firm, net unchanged to IL points
higher.> The market opened barely
steady at decline Of 8 to 10 points
and sold II to IS points net lower
right after the call under heavy real
izing and local selling for O. reaction.
Lower cables than due, an unfavOr-
able view Of the European political
situation and good weather in the
South. combined with the rapidity and
extent Of the recent advance tended to
encourage confidence in a setback if
only as result Of prOfit-taking for
over the weekend and the market
was evidently under considerable
pressure during the first few minutes.
Offerings however, were very readily
absorbed and as soon as the market
showed a tendency to steady there
was q renewal OF active general buy
ing and reports Of very firm spot
situation in the South. Early sellers
appeared TO become frightened as
prices worked upward and turned tor
cover on the advance which carried
January contracts to 1903 and March
TO 1928, or 29 points above the low
level of the morning. Proft-takins
checked the upward movement
around this level and caused moder-
ate reactions from the best in the
late trading. Another bullish crop
estimate was issued before the open
ing which placed the yield at 1851.

chief feature appeared to be reports

NEW ORLEANS FUTURES.

New Orleans, La, Nov. 9.-The
cotton market had a steady tendency
to advance this week and nothing but
the profit-taking Of satisfied longs
checked the rises. At times some lit
tie fresh short cotton was offered Tor
sale but on the whole the pressure
from this source was not great.
The close was at a net advance OF
IS to S3 points.
At the highest, the trading months
were Sc to 95 points over last weeks
close: at the lowest they were still
20 to 21 over.
Bulls based their buying principally
on reports OF good trade among the
mills. Mill takings for the week were
put at $4,000 bales. against $1,000
last year. Exports for the week were
302, ,431 bales, against 1S8.;50 this
week last year. while exports for the
season were 2.e9s.245, against 1855,
979 a year ago.
Weather conditions, following the
first real frosts of the season, were
called good and picking made rapid
headway but the bears were unable
to make much Of a market factor out
Of the weather map. The census re-
port on ginning Of 8,4S9,S9S bales
turned out up to the end Of October
fulfilled bearish claims within SO, 900
bales, but was followed by stiff ad-
vance because that $4,000 bales was
lacking.
The spot demand was called good
and stiff advances in spot quotations
we're an encouragement to futures.
Spot prices advanced nine-sixteenths
Of a cent. middling closing at 12A
against II 7-16 last week. Sales on
the spot amounted to 5,9S5 bales
against $3.50 last week; sales to ar
rive amounted to 600 bales against
