SMALL CUMMINGS
STEAD|ES COTTON
Crop Estimate of l3,400, 900 and
Firm Cables Help Firmness.
Volume of Trade Light.

p NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-In the face of
much better Liverpool cables than eX
pected and heavy rains in the Western
belt overnight and the steadlness of
the New Orleans market Tuesday. the
cotton market opened barely steady to-
day with first prices l up to points
lower than the final quotations of Mon
day.
The steadiness of the Liverpool mar
ket was attributed to European spin
ners calling for actual cotton.
On the opening the room traders was
inclined to sell. but the supply was light
and scattered and prices eased off ! to
points from the initial range before
sufficient buying orders came into the
ring to turn the market. Then they
swung up 10 10 points from the preVi-
GUS close. The larger spot interests
were the principal absorbers. There
was also good buying by brokers iden-
titled with Liverpool connection. Shorts
came In later on the buying side.
The buying was based on the reap
pearance of mills as buyers. They were
active at the lowest level and were the
influential factors In turning the market
on an upward trend last Friday. Indica-
tons for further rains in the Western
belt and generally fair in the Eastern
half. followed by unsettled rainy weather
toward the end of the week. and distant
indications being unfavorable and for
generally bad weather, manifested buy
ing power.
The advance was preceded by a per-
pendicular break of 50 bale. and 1t is
contended in conservative quarters that
a reaction is overdue and many are pre-
dieting IA cents before the week end.
Small ginning figures of S,607 900 bales
ginned to November J. issued by a
Memphis authority, as compared with
S,6S9,O0 bales during the same period last
year and 100000 bales in 1911, coupled
with a rumor that the National Ginners'
Association estimates the crop at 49,
400. 900 bales. encouraged active buying
during the early afternoon, resulting in
December advancing to 1852. January
TO 13.4S and March to 13.47. Had II not
been for the small outside trade. there
is no telling where the list would have
found a resting place, as everything
was bullish, but the market lacked snap
on the rally and soon developed dull
ness. Price movement however, held
firm around the high mark.
Following are II a. m. bids in New
York: December 1858, January 1888,
March 1897, May 1897. July 1927.
Following are 10 a. m. bids in New
Orleans: December 10 So, January IL. Sc,
March 1851, May 1856. July 1857.
At the close the market was steady,
with prices at net advance of to Is
points from the closing quotations OF
Monday.

There does not seem to be any
want Of harmony" among the re-
publicans of the state of Idaho,
Judging from the way Gov. Haines
is filling the offices with republi-
cans, whether the term of the
democratic incumbent had expired
or not. We believe in filling all
Of the offices by men who are in
sympathy with the chief admin
istrator Of affairs, and that in no
other way can the complete sue
essc of an administration be
attainrd. Gov. Haines believes
that the governor should be elect
ed and that he should appoint his
own secretary Of state and other
officers. holding them to strict ac-
countability for their actions, and
them al pleasure when
one fails to perform his duties ac-
cording to law. This not being
the law in Idaho, the governor
does the next best thing-fills all
the places he can with his political
friends.

ESTIMATED cost of the work. As
the state has selected nearly all Of
its granted lands, it is improbable
that the survey can be secured in
this way. Then if the state wanted
to have any such lands surveyed
and desired to make a deposit of
the funds for the work, there is
no appropriation from which the
cost could be paid.
There is no question about the
desirability Of getting these lands
into taxable condition, but the
county will be money ahead if it
will cut off the salary Of the spe-
cial agent and have the county
attorney 60 into the legal phases
Of the matter. There is no doubt
but that these lands ought to be
patented SO they can be taxed,
but the laws and conditions being
as they are, it will be some time
before they are patented, and
about all that can be done by the
special agent Of the county that
will be Of any interest to the tax
payers, will be to draw his salary.
