Yesterdays Cotton Market.

New York, April THE foreign
market was surprisingly good this
morning with large sales in spot de-
partment. This, coupled with bad
weather in south and predictions for
continuance, caused higher and ac
tive opening. With elimination of un-
easy short interest some decline would
have been natural today. However,
the very unreasonable weather that
prevails in the South and more on
the way caused uneasiness and turned
the market. Purchase of December
on soft spots is suggested at the big
discount at which new crop is sell
ing under May option and actual cot
ton, to say nothing of the backward
ness of preparation, makes it seem
safe and attractive. Spots in South
unchanged, except Savannah, up Lie
with moderate sales.

Los Angeles Produce Market.

Los Angeles, April S.-There are
so many Oregon potatoes on the To-
cal market at the present time that
there is almost no demand for the
California variety, according to state
ments made yesterday by one of the
officers of large produce house
According to this man there have
been many carloads of spuds sent
here within the last week from the
northern fields and many more are
expected
A new district has recently beer
opened up in the Klamath region in
Oregon and, according to the local
produce man, most of the farmers
there planted potatoes. There was =
bumper crop and when the time came
to market the produce they found
that their market was over-supplied.
Most of the men had to haul their
potatoes a long way to the railroad
and as result of the low prices many
OF them are willing to take almost
anything that they can get for their

Evacuatins Vera Cruz.
(Portland Express.)

II LApi ESQ.,
Just why the United States should
evacuate Vera Cruz at the present
time after occupying it so many
months is not entirely apparent. AS
We understand II there was really no
satisfying explanation for occupation
so, perhaps. the tnities are preserved
through lackspf satisfactory ex-
PLANTATION over the leave taking. To
most of US it would seem that our SOL
diers are more needed at Vera Cruz
Just now than they have been at any
previous time. Yet they have been
withdrawn.
Mexico is now entering upon a new
civil war. Two sides are about to
fight, not for any particular principle
SO far as we can discover, but to fight
nevertheless. When the Constitu-
tionalists opposed Huerta, a military
usurper who permitted if he did not
actually cause the murder of the
president and the vice president of
Mexico, our duty was clear. We could
not recognize Huerta and it seemed
to be fitting to help Mexico re- estah-
lish a stable government. Now. how
ever, personalities not principles seem
to be the underlying causes of dis
sension. There is little to choose
between the two factions. In such a
struggle we may feel disgust, but it is
no real affair of ours. Hence it
would seem that our occupancy of
Vera Cruz might well have been con-
tinued until Mexico has government
to which we might properly turn over
the city.

Editorial Comment.
Is Saul Among the Prophets?
New York SUM-


American manufacturers will note
with interest. in some cases not IN
mingled with amusement, the demand
of the Hon. Norman L. Mack for
another revision of the tariff; an up
ward and not downward revision.
Mr. Mack has been for fourteen
years the representative of this state
in the Democratic National Commit
tee and for FIVE years he was chair
man of that committee. His au-
thoritative relation to the party's
management covers the second great
period of tariff reform agitation. OF
impulse in the direction OF free trade,
of assault upon the doctrines or the
proteetionists. of schedule tinkerins
and of the enactment of lower duties.
His newspaper, the Evening Times or
Buffalo, now says;
Manufacturing and mercantile en-
terprise in the United States is con-
fronted with an emergency. But this
same enterprise has almost within its
grasp an opportunity not dreamed of
even so short time ago as last July.
The opportunity is the tremendous
opening for American commerce and
manufactures If they were able to
avail themselves of 1t.
Congress should put its shoulder to
the wheel when the session begins
next December. The only way to do
II is to encourage new enterprise. The
manufacturer is entitled to his free
raw materials so that he may have
easy prices on his side in buying the
raw products from which his COM
modities are made.
He is also entitled to all the reason
able safeguards he can have in the
way of reimbursement of such tariff
schedules as it shall be shown neces-
sary to revise to meet the require
ments of the new situation.
We omit that part of the Hon. Nor
man e. Macks appeal for revision up
ward which demonstrates with sur
prising dialectic ability that such a
retrogressive course in tariff legisla-
tion is not only tolerated but actually
demanded by the Baltimore platform
on which Mr.. Wilson was elected. Mr..
Mack has never achieved nobler elo-
quence or more persuasive logic than
in his argument intended to reconcile
present platform doctrines with flu
ture upward revision.
We congratulate the Hon. Norman
E Mack on the courage. the patriot
ism, the independence, the business
sense which distinguished his remark
able appeal to his party to hasten a
flank movement for the nourishment
and protection of American manu-
featuring interests.
He must be greatly encouraged by
the prospect of enthusiastic support
in the next Congress by a good num-
Der of returning protectionist Re-
publicans, experienced and energetic.

enough to retire the bonds and pay in

ton should then be able to offer cheaper
light. heat and power than any other
city on the continent.
There's a double-ended moral to all
this for Maine to consider: The enter

Edmontonites make about it. Ed
monitor has laid another egg. 1t is
worth millions of dollars in gas, ami
more in advertising.
Out that way industrial organiza-
tons" encourage farmers by building
storage plants and elevators, and by
providing seed and machinery at cash
cost to those who need financial as
sistance. 1t saves to the farmer
much of the middleman's profits and
prevents extortion in thousands OF
cases.
In Maine this year many farmers
went in heavily on potato planting.
The great majority were unprovided
with suitable storage and early cold
weather caught them for severe PEN
alties. Many had to market from
the field at 80 to IS cents per bushel
and these potatoes went into the mid
6leman's storage to be put out for 100
per cent. profit. Apples were in as
bad or worse prospect.
The suggestion is that boards of
trade and Industrial organizations en-
courage farmers in providing storage
SO that the producer and consumer
may benefit by the market demand

market and pocketing all the velvet"

Our "spoiis" Diplomacy.

(Hartford Courant. Rep)
1t is announced that Ambassador
Herrick will be relieved of his duties
in Paris on the first Of December. and
that then his successor, William g..
Sharp, will take the Office.
The difference between Mr.. Her
rick and Mr.. Sharp is that HerricS
has proved himself just the man for
the place, but is Republican, while
Sharp is an untried experiment but is
a Democrat. Mr.. Sharp, 1t will be
remembered. was appointed just as
the war broke out, Why. then, didn't
he. so to speak. get on his Job at once?
The answer Is simple--Mr. Herrick
was so useful, useful not only to
Americans but to all other foreigners
in Paris and to the French them
selves, that he couldn't be spared. He
was the man for the novel and shock
ing emergency. Every. one who has
come back or written back from Paris,
indeed from England. has told OF
Herrick's courage and tact and abil-
ity. He used to be known as rich
young Ohio politician, whom Mark
Hanna brought forward. He's known
now as the man who represented the
United States 30 ably in time of I'M
precedented trial that he has brought
prestige not only to himself but to his
country.
That, perhaps. Is why he is turned
out. Tact is not one of President
Wilson's strong points. If 1t were,
he'd thank Herrick for his services
and ask him to continue to hold the
Office that he has filed with such dis
tinguished ability,
Instead of that, the man goes out,
and a new man goes in whose one dis
tinguishing qualification Is that he Is
Democrat.
