| New York, September 14.-Whilc tho
| trading has not been as heavy or at
| tended with anything like the excite
ment OF the previous week the volume
or business the past week has been
| larger than usual and the fluctuations
have covered n wider range than under
normal conditions. Hence interest in
the cotton market continues very great
throughout tho entire cotton world, as
we'll as among Wall Street, Southern
and Western traders. The feature the
past week has been Its recovery from
| the Generalization OF the previous
week, when there was so much appre-
hension over the probable passage of
the Clark cotton tax bill. which pro-
vides for taxation of $50 on every
100 bales OF cotton contracts traded In
for future delivery, whether for specu-
lative OF hedge purposes.
The fear that the bill would be pass
ed and become q law with the tariff
bill. and thereby practically wipe out
the cotton exchanges throughout the
South. as we'll as in New Orleans and
at New York, was dissipated to a con-
siderable extent by the action Of the
Senate late last Saturday evening in
adopting an amendment that If tho bill
should be agreed upon by tho House
of Representatives In its present shape,
1t was not to become effective until
September 1 next year. Rumors that
the tax would be greatly modified by
the Conference Committees of both the
Senate and the House now having it in
charge. were also effective in rallyine

COMMUNICATION
Editor Bonanza:

Editor Bonanza
Why does the county of Nye after
eleeting a set of officials forthwith
request them to go out and secure
bonds in any manner which seems
best suited to each one Of them, to
protect not the official himself, but
the town or county against his NAL
feasance or nonfeasanee of office?
The motive for the question is
this: If man does not feel inclin-
ed or able to pay for a bond with
a surety company he must perforce
secure the signature of representa-
tive men who will guarantee the
town or county against loss. In
most cases, no doubt, this is right.
1t is favor on which nothing is
| expected or received, and no evil re-
suits therefrom, yet it leaves that
/ little opening which the man with
the wedge is ever seeking and If he
/ can sign an officials bond, your man
/ whom you have elected is thereby
placed under an obligation to this
/ signer, not to you. On this little
| suggestion numberless surmises may
arise. One will suffice for our pur
pose. If one Of our officials should
step into Mr.. Signers place of bust
ness and seems a little to inquisi
tive. Mr. Signer assures him tha
everything is o. K. and in order, the

and no one can possess too many.
Blouses themselves are in fact sim
ply backgrounds against which are
posed the more interesting details OF
vests, collars, cuffs and sashes. The
sash Is a paramount feature OF the
new blouse, and effects a happy har-
mony between It and the accompany

show broad crushed sashes OF the ma
terial knotted at one side Of the waist
and falling in short ends over the
skirt, giving very pleasing length OF
line to the figure and doing away with
the chopped of look that shortwaisted
women sometimes have in high-waist-
ed skirt worn over blouses OF light ma
terial.
Another feature that gives length OF
line to the figure Is the coattail. This
coattall motif is used with excellent
effect on some dressy blouses design
ed for wear at the matiness or after
noon bridge, with tailored costumes Of
velvet or broadcloth. A white char
