BY w. w. Morrison

With the exception of the first few
months following the breaking out OF
the war, the independence of the spot
cotton market has been practically
unbroken. This independence began
to develop about six years ago. II
became more marked during the last
two years and has been especially SC
during the recent months of the pres
ent season.
We do not recall time duriro
these years when spot cotton ha'
shown a vital weakness, or has in
dicated a panicky feeling. There
have been fluctuations, of course, but
these fluctuations have almost uni
formly reflected nothing more thar
sane and orderly adjustment to OBJ
vious conditions. 1t is true the quo.
tations have sometimes been very er
ratio, showing wide differences on the
same day between the leading mar
gets. A close analysis of these quo
tations show, however, that they rep
resented the sale Of hedged cotton or
which there was satisfactory profit
and few lots of unhedged cotto'
which had lost confidence in bette
prices. These lots have usually bee
insignificant in amount and were only
an exception to general rule. l.
would have been really remarkable
had not such an exception developed
The record of sales abundantly bear
out this statement.
The record of sales support the
statement also that the greater bull
of the sunsold cotton has remained
free from any panieky feeling. Thi
has been notably the case during the
bread fluctuations which have been {
distinguishing feature of this season
This week spot cotton has continued
to maintain its equipoise at a much
higher level than the future mHrke'
has registered. AS a rule, during
recent years those who have sold fu
tute contracts have lost money where
it has been sold upon the assumption
that the spot market would be broI.
en- through savage attack upon tbs
future market. Such attacks hav'
almost uniformly failed in the pas
and there is no reason for believing
that they will succeed in the future
This is history, not theory. Ano
it IS important because it is history
Tor this reason we have for man,
months urged our friends to foilcv
closely the lead of the spot mar6e
in all their ventures into the futurt
market We have been especially anx
ious that they guard against follow
ing any advance into the dangerous
region of premiums, or of following
any decline into the hazardous re
gion of discounts. Events of the weel
have emphasized anew the wisdom

Organized Speculation in Cot
ton Is Now Prohibited by Law

of only trading on extreme develop
ments either way.
The story is gciag the rounds that
a pocl has been formed to depress
the market. We are prone to dis
credit all stories concerning organize
speculation. 1t would be danger
Gus enterprise under existing coldi-
tions. 1t must he remembered that
every contract sold must be filled
with the actual cotton under tie
terms dictated by the general gov
arnment. We think it more likely
that the illogica. eccentricitics OF the
market sce due to the highly nerv-
ous state of the public mind, brought
on by the war, and which is likely to
continue as long as the vnr lasts.
ANY trader who does not make the
broadest allowance in his calculation
for the hysteria which this state Of
mind is likely to develop at any time,
clearly has re business to bc car
rying an interest ID TIE future mar
aet.
Since exaggerated ideas IS to the
Increase in acreage are almost certain
TO prevail, the influence Of the COM
ng crop can be expected to be against
the market, until the question Of acre
.ge is definitely rcttled by the Off

WESTERN UNION PLANS
TO TRAIN OPERATORS

The Western Union Telegraph Com
jany has offered a bonus to about
1000 manager-operators in small cit
les and towns for each junior opera.
tor such managers shall enlist anc
train.
This unusual step arises out of the
extraordinary growth in the use OF
the telegraph and the consequent need
for competent operators to handle the
company's business with the dispatch
which. its standards require.
Any person-man or woman-ovei
the age of 16 and with the requisite
education and intelligence, can be.
come a junior operator. The com
pany provides the necessary instruc'
tion free. When the junio- grade
is reached employment is assured.
In the larger cities telegraph
schools are already maintained fol
teaching operators. These, however
have not been able to turn out suf
ficient number Of trained men anC
women to wholly meet the present
demands. 1t is now sought to give
persons in smaller places as well az
the cities an opportunity to study
telegraphy either by exclusive appli-
cation or in conjunction with THEN
other employment.

CONTROL OF PRICES.

The utra-conservative could not apparently be made
to understand until the thing actually accomplished
that the business of banking could be regulated and con-
troed that the business of ralroading could be regu
lated and CONTROLLED that certain of the great combina
tons and trusts could be regulated and CONTROLLED fin
ally that control could be exercised by federal authority
the character of labor and hours of labor in certain
industries. 1t is argument to say that the regulation
and control obtained is not adequate, and that
quent many of the abuses that the regulatory and cor
rective legislation intended to bring about still
st and are little if any, less offensive and oppressive
the of the people than they were before the work
of reforming them undertaken
AS much was said and justly said, about other adj
vanced steps toward better government in the past
striking instance may be found in the elevation OF the
federal and state civil service Civil service reform
quite as much Of laughing matter for years disso-
luton of the trusts is today but nevertheless civil sev-
ice reform an accomplished fact Before another year
rolls around the entire civil working force of the gov
ernment including the posasters Of the great cit
les will probably be compelled to quality under the merit
system Civil service reform is no longer joke.
Administrative officers of the government may ne
glect their duties judicial officers of the government may
forget their dutes the influences behind the combna
ons and trusts may stay for time the operation OF the
law but that the law will assert it's authority is almost
as certain as that day will follow night Sooner or later
every monopoly evadng ignoring the laws enacted to
prevent restraint Of trade and to protect the people from
imposition, will be brought to account.
The utraconservatives saying that the law
cannot fix the maximum prices at which commodes IN
common use may be sold Military law is doing this very
thing in many nations at present. and military law do
ing it in behalf quite much of the civil of the mill
tary population What the military law 90 the civil
law also can do for the civil population of any country
This is established by the recent action Of Canada in
