New Orleans Futures.

New Orleans, May 20-Cotton futures
opened steady at a decline of to II
points ON poor cables and a. good weather
map. No rain was reported in the cotton
belt over Sunday and the bright ,clear
weather that prevailed encouraged the
belief that the soil was in the best pos
sible shape for finishing planting, except
in overlooked sections Short selling was
heavy on the first cali, but so was profit
taking by shorts also with the result that
prices were about the lowest in the early
trading. Immediately after the call,
prices were 10 to 13 points down. At
the end of the first half hour of business
they were to points down.
The forecast OF unsettled weather for
the western half of the cotton belt gave
short selling a check and toward the
middle of the morning the tone was
steady. Prices recovered gradually and
late in the morning the trading months
were / point UP to ! point decline. COM
pared with the close Of Saturday. At this
level, bears took courage again and in
creased their offerings. At noon prices
were 4 to 6 points under the last quota
tons of Saturday.

DICKINSON AND LINDABURY SPARRING
BEFORE A COURT WITHOUT A JUDGE

New York, May 20.-A court with
out a Judge; a counsel table unhamp-
cred by rules of evidence except as
1t interprets them itself; a witness
stand whose occupant may choose for
himself whom he shall answer. and
how, and remain undisturbed by fears
OF rebuke or punishment.
There you have a picture of the
hearing in the suit of the United
States of America VS.. the United
States Steel Corporation ct al, which
is now in progress in this city.
Henry P. Brown, a constitutional
lawyer of high reputation in Phila-
dciphia, is sitting as special examiner
in the proceedings. At the counsel
table are Jacob NJ. Dickinson and
Henry z. Cotton for the government,
end Richard v. Lindabury, c. A.
Severance and Raynal c. Boiling, for
the Steel Corporation.
Mr.. Lindabury, who is chief coun-
sci for the defense, is a New Jersey
lawyer who has come of recent
years to be among the great corpor-
alton attorneys. Ten years ago he
made his first appearance for the
steel corporation and in the mean
time he has appeared for the Amer
lean Tobacco Company, for the Pru-
dental and Metropolitan Life In
surance companies, of the former OF
" hich he is a director; for former
Senator James Smith, Jr., when ne
was receiver of the United states
Shipbuilding Company; for the Har-
rin,an lines in the Northern Secur-
tiles case, for the Beef Trust, for
the National Sugar Refining Com

pany who were brought to trial here
two months ago.
Not even the attendant who guards
the door to the court room has less
to do than Special Examiner Brown.
He has no judicial functions so far
as the proceedings are concerned.
Hardly a question is asked by Judge
Dickinson to which an exception is
net taken or an objection entered by
MIR. Severance or Mr.. Lindabury.
Hardly an answer is made without
some such interruption, and hardly
a letter or paper is offered in testi-
mony without the making of a form
a, protest.
But when this happens the oppos-
ing lawyers argue the point out to-
gether, and in the end the question
is asked or the answer given, quite
as If nothing had been said
The witnesses have been somewhat
confused by the fact that while the
attorneys take so many exceptions,
Examiner Brown makes no rulings.
Early in the proceedings tiI1y fell in
to the habit of watching the wrang-
ling lawyers and making their own
choice as TO which ones contention
they would abide by. Their range of
choice, however, is but limited for
only a profession of forgetfulness can
enable them to escape answering in
the end
So far the amount OF testimony
taken at the hearings has not been
great. 1t is expected that before
the case comes to argument-a year
hence-the record of the Standard
Gil case will have been exceeded. In
that case there were $4,000 printed
pages in the record.

CRIMINALS

The Reflector, published at Grove,
N. d., had an interview some time
ago with the warden of the Colora-
do penitentiary and quotes him as
saying:
Criminal nature! That's the
kind of talk that makes me sick.
l tell you, there isn't any! Come
right down to it, and this thing
they call criminal nature is only
human nature at it's worst Look
at those men! Take 'em one at a
time Honest to goodness, I've
been on many camping trip with
fellows that weren't half as fine
and likeable and square.
History doesn't hold an in
stance where cruelty ever cured
an evil.
AFTER all, what is a peniten-
tiary but the human record of
society's own crimes and failures
Would God have taken such pains
to make the world beautiful if he
had meant to put evil into the
hearts of menp The prison, with
its wretched huddle of unfortu-
mates, is the result of our greeds,
rapacities, cruelties and ignorances.
Slums, saloons, predatory wealth,
social and industrial injustices, de-
basing environments, lack of op-
portunity, corporation corruption
these things make crime and
criminals. We must get at the
social and economic causes-re-
move the curse of involuntary pow
erty, equalize opportunity"

BOSS RULE EXISTS


The following is from Rudolph
Spreckles just before the Califor-
MIA primaries:
Can the people of California
truthfully claim that we have rid
our state of boss rule, when we
know that some of our public ser
wants have travelled east and there
made arrangements with partic-
ular presidential candidate to place
our state government, with its
many employees, appointees, and
favor seeking friends behind that
mans candidacy, and should we
tolerate their arrogance when they
attempt to deliver our votes, as
well?
If the voters of California allow
such methods to go unchallenged
by men who have otherwise served
we'll, then we have gained little.
for the boss rule will still be with
us and in the end will become as
Objectionable as was our former
political bondages.
This country has had II years
of Roosevelt and Taft and the in
creased cost of living started with
Roosevelt's first term as president,
and has been going up ever since,
and during his administration this
country experienced the greatest
financial panic in the history of
the nation. But if Roosevelt had
had the strength to resist the men
of Wall street at that time and had
acted independently extending the
credit of the nation to the west
and middle western banks, in place
of yielding the entire credit of the
government to Wall street, the
panic could not have been main
tanned by those interests for the
purpose of acquiring the Tennes-
see Coal & Iron Co. properties, the
only formidable rival of the United
States steel trust
Under the administration of
Roosevelt and Taft, the trusts have
multiplied until today every i'm
portant industry is under the con-
troll and domination of few men
who now also control the money
power of our nation. 1t is time
for the men and women of this
country to elect a man who is
known to really represent the peo-
pie and not special privilege. La
Toilette has given the people every
proof of his ability and loyalty.
Why not assert yourself and vote
for the man who ignores the schem-
ing politicians and goes direct to
the people for their support? He
is not backed by either political
bosses, or the trusts or any form of
special privilege. He fights for
the people and deserves their sup
port.

SOCIALIST CONVENTION

With 25O delegates, the social
ist convention was organized Mon
day at indianapolis.
Morris Hillquitt of New York,
who was elected chairman for the
day, told the convention that since
the party was formed in Indiana
polls eleven years ago, it had
grown from 10000 members pay
ing dues to 10000 and that the
voting strength had increased from
100000 to 100000.
One important question to be
determined is the formal attitude
OF the party toward the Industrial
Workers of the World.
Conservative socialists will de-
mand that the convention 60 on
record as denouncing the methods
Of the Industrial Workers of the
World" said Congressman Berger
of Wisconsin, member of the
executive committee. "Ten to one
the delegates are opposed to 'di-
rect action and other violent prin-
ciples of the Industrial Workers.
The socialist party cannot afford
to continue to be embroiled with
this riotous organization. There
has been too much of this on the
Pacific coast and elsewhere"
There are in this country now
perhaps 400 papers, which are ex-
ponents of Socialism, with COM
bined circulation of at least one
and half millions of copies.
