New Orleans Cotton.

New Orleans, July 15.-Good rains in the eastern belt caused cotton to open today at decline of 1@3 pints in the face beteer cables thao due After tine call the trading months stood 3M4 points down.. Lack of rain in the western belt. made sellers cautious after ;the first burst of sell ing. @
 The forecast for continued dry weather for the western s belt caused a reacton and an advance of, 3@4 points over yesterday $ close. The hard spot brought out. offerings on a larger scale from the shorts and at noon prices were again down, this time 6@S points under yesterday s final.
 The favorable weather shown by the detailed reports east of the river with rain showers in Mississippi seemed to offset the less favorable conditions in the Southwest, and the market was very quiet around mid day with prices easing off to about last nights closing figures.

MARKETS.
LITTLE TRADING; COTTON STATIONARY
Early Advance ofA Dry Weather Later Offset by
 Shower Reports.

New York, July 15.-Relatively steady cables and private reports of hot winds in the Southwest yesterday afternoon probably accounted for an opening advance of from 1 to 4 points in the cotton market today There was little demand, while there appeared to be considerable realizing or scattered local selling and fluctu- ations were more or less irregular right after the call Reactions of 4 or } points were followed by rallies in the first hour, however, on New Orleans buying and reports that tenn peratures were high in the South west again this morning.
 Liquidation continued during the early afternoon and the market be- came weak and unsettled with active months selling about S@11 points net lower, following private predictions for rain in South Texas.

FoUR YEAR TERM

Representative o. d. Gray has In
trodueed bill 10 make the term o.
office OF county sshooltsuperintendentt
end with, the Ischolastic year, which
IL July 1s:, anaStey increase the Length
OF the term of fofilce from two to fouI
years. tsfr Gray sza soms opposition.
but says he IS asanred of the passagt
% rthe bill The matter OF increasin6
the length OF the term has been dis
cussed in the Legislature for years
and we think Is g, good idea. The
county school superintendent has a
most difficult office to fill and there
is little sense inichanging frequently.
when It requires some months for q
new man to learn the ropes. Supt.
Felton,. for instance, seems to be CIV
ing general satisfaction, and at the
same time his tenure Of Office is mark
led with progress.
It would not be impossible to Te-
move u superintendent II he was not
giving satisfection, but there is little
sense in keeping the otfice continunlly
