The old-school machine polite
ans who count upon ward-healer
and cut aud dried methods to get
control and keep control of the gov
eminent should prepare their fraid
holes for they win need them for
some time. Men like Wilson, Bryan
Lane and others, who appeal to the
public conscience are in control and
will stay in control until reaction
comes. The people are becoming
too intelligent to take the promises
or the arguments of the political fix
ers as gospel truth without investiga-
ton. They will apply the acid test
to these platforms and to these
promises and arguments. There
will be sitting of candidates which
will prove fatal to those who have
nothing but party regularity to-. rec
ommend them. Party regularity is
good-but it is not enough. Service
is demanded and it will be insisted
upon. What have you done9
What are you doing now7 How do
you intend to do what you promise
to do? Give US the details. The
voters are going to want to know.
Our candidates may as we'll prepare
oitell them. The next campaign
is not going TO be healthy one for
dodgers. -Ex.

At the recent re-dedication of the
old first Congress Hall in Philadel-
phia, the President said:
eff you think too much about be-
ing reelected, it is very difficult to
be worth re-electing. You are so
apt to think that the comparatively
small number of persons, numerous
as they seem to be when they swarm,
who come to Washington to ask for
things, constitute an important pro-
portion of the population of the
country, that it is constantly nee
essary to come away from Washing
ton to renew ones contact with the
people who do moi swarm there, who
do not ask for anything, and who do
trust you without their personal
counsel, to do your duty.
"Unless one gets this contact, he
grows weaker and weaker"
EoncIuding the President SAID;
Ir
"My theme here today, my only
thought is very simple one. Do
notlet US go back to the annals OF
those sessions of Congress to find
out what to do, because we live in
another age and circumstances are
absolutely different, Let US be men

COTTON QUIET AS
RESULT OF HOLIDAY
Fluctuations Narrow With
Close Net Unchanged to
2 Points Higher

New York, March 24.-The cotton mar
ket was very quiet today, business be-
ing restricted both by the continuation
OF the Easter holidays in Liverpool and a
poor wire service through the south,
Fluctuations were narrow, with the mar
ket closing barely steady, net unchanged
to 2 points higher. The market opened
steady at unchanged prices to an ad-
vance of points and sold about to
points net higher during the early trad
ing. This advance seemed to reflect COW
ering by some of last weeks scattering
sellers on the bearish view of the gin
ming figures, but who were rendered some
what uneasy this morning by further wet
weather in the south, and the long range
forecast indicating a continuation of un-
settled conditions.
The circulation of a few March notices
caused some commission houses liquida-
tion of that position on the early advance,
which seemed to check the upward move
ment, and while March held its premium
the list eased off from The best during the
afternoon. Closing prices were within a
point or two of the lowest. The unsettling
weather reported in the south served to
accentuate the uncertainty or the new
crop start, but local bears claimed it was
too early In the season to feel any alarm
over the outlook, and according to the
days gossip the rains restricted sellers
rather than inspired any fresh buying OF
consequence for long account.
The weekly figures. which did not be,
come available until today, showed &
smaller decrease in the worlds visible
supply of American than for the same
week last year, but were in line with ex
pectations, and seemed to exert little in
ffuence on the trading. Possibly they were
offset to some extent by increasing in
terror shipments suggesting more rapic
loss in the interior stocks and the pos
sibility of an increased import movemen
toward the end of the month. Southern
spot advices indicated no particular
change over the holidays.

BRISK DEMAND FOR
STOCKS At OPENING
Leading Shares Advance.
Speculative Sentiment
More Cheerful

New York, March 24-When the stock
market opened today after the triple
holiday there was a brisk demand Tor
stocks for about one hour. Leading
shares were advanced / point or over.
Trading then fell off and during the re-
maInder of the session the market was
fiat. Early gains resulted for time, but
toward the close stocks moved upward
again and last figures were at about the
high point of the day.
Speculative sentiment was more cheer
full owing to several favorable develop
ments over the holiday but there was the
same absence of buying power which has
been feature of the market for several
weeks.
The unexpectedly good bank statement
and favorable advices as te crop pros
poets gave more cheerful cast to spec
ulative sentiment. A reduction In loars
of about sso,ooo0o0 had been effected In
the last three weeks, and for the first
time in several months an increase in sur
plus over the corresponding week of the
previous year was reported. Time money
was easier and advices from abroad indi-
Gated that the period of stringency there
was drawing toward an end
One sign of strength was found in ad-
vances by a number of the newer indus
trials which recently have shown marked
weakness. The petroleum shares, WOOL
worth and Goodrich made good gains.
There were few weak spots, however.

Hubbeard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, March 24.-(Special)--
The foreign markets remain closed un-
til tomorrow, though in England the
mills do not close during the Easter
holiday. Here our market gained
slightly over the close on last Friday
though the feeling that the storms of
last week had retarded If not injured
the planters work.
On the advance the Wall street houses
were aggressive; in fact, for the past
two months all of the aggression has
been directed In favor of lower prices
and we are now somewhat higher.
Another week of unsettled weather
is expected If the predictions of the
government prove correct.
We have the following telegram from
Memphis; THE levee people below here
on the Mississippi side are very uneasy
fearing further high water. The old
break at Beulah not yet secure"

COURT CRIER
FORGETS LINES"

Washington, March 24.-The dignified
formality with which the supreme court
daily goes into session was converted
into comedy today when the crier OF
the court forgot the Zines he has re-
peated for nearly 10 years without an
error. As the justices took their places
on the bench the crier admonishes all
persons to draw near and give their at
tention and concludes with imploriny r
the blessing of God upon the United
States and this honorable court To-
day the crier became confused. admon-
ishing all ito give attention to business. ;,
and when he came to the concluding
part could not think from whom and to
whom the blessing was rest. After two
OF three attempts the laughter of every
member of the court and that of the
spectators and lawyers drowned his
words.

Chicago. March 24-Active support

The wheat market was practically

of prostrated wires in the western

in England left this market without
Liverpool advices.
Bulls turned corn market that

Oats, after a weak opening, showed

COTTON STEADY BUT
DULL AFTER EASTER
Trading Restricted as Result
of Recent Weather
Conditions

New Orleans. March A.-The cotton
market opened steady but dull after the
holidays. With Liverpool still closed the
local markets saw only small business.
In addition there was much uncertainty
over the effect of recent weather condi-
tions which tended to restrict trading.
Initial prices were to 5 points up.
Buying orders were chiefly based on re-
ports of wind damage over the country,
the weather map showing little moisture
over the belt, while temperatures we're
fairly high.
In the early trading prices stood points
up. which was the highest of the day.
Around the middle of the morning some
short selling was in evidence under which
prices fell Off but the forecast of freezing
weather over a part of the western belt
prevented anything like general selling.'
At noon prices were only to points
over the close Of last week. In the after
noon the net advance was reduced to onlyl
to points. The market closed at the
lowest.
Private reports from the belt we're more'
encouraging than otherwise. Bearish trad-
ers circulated kilograms and letters shows
ing that crop work was making good prog
ress The cold wave advancing towardl
the belt, however. was an unfayorabla
feature of Importance. -
