NEW SECRETARY OF STATE.

~ " ~ AAAa NV W
From the Dover State News.
The Delaware State News wishes TO
join the long list of newspapers that
have extended fluctuations to Hon.
Everett G. Johnson, of Newark, upon
his appointment to be our next Secre-
tary Of State, and have complimented
.GOvernor-elect John G. Townsend. JIs.
for making such an excellent selec-
tiOn. We say this because most Of
the other newspapers of the State
have had an opportunity to comment
editorially upon the appointment, and
all that have commented upon it have
expressed their approval Of Governor
elect Townsend's choice. We desire
to state, however, that had not an
other single newspaper in the State
congratulated our next Governor
upon his appointment. the State News
would have done so, for knowing Mr.
Johnson personally. as we do, We
recognize in him a worthy successor
to the efficient retiring State Secre-
tary. George II. Hall. We welcome
Mr.. Johnson to Dover, and we hope
that his four years in the State House
will be profitable and pleasurable tC

From the Smyrna Times
We fully agree with our contem-
porary the Milford Chronicle, that
GovernOr-elect John G. Townsend,
in his appointing Everett Johnson. OF
Newark. as Secretary of State. under
his administration, has made a very
excellent choice. Mr. Johnson is .
young man familiar with State affairs
and the business which will come un-
der his attention. He has had train
ing as a legislator. and his business
of publishing and editing a newspaper
will be Of great advantage to him and
the State in the administration of the
office of Secretary Of State. From the
point OF political expediency, Gov
ernor-elect Townsend has made
wise move in his first appointment
and if those to follow are along the
same line, rs his choice for Secretary
! OF state, he will surround himself
with capable and efficient public SER
wants to administer the department
during his administration. We con-
graduate both the GovernOr-elect and
Mr. Johnson.

THE PROCEEDS OF THE LIBERTY
 LOAN.


 The proceeds of the second Liberty loan-in addition to the proceeds of the sirst-ar not being locked up or sent away; the proceeds are being PUT TO WORK in tho United States. Profits derived from expending the loan will remain in THIS country. Re- distribution of the money by our government and by the allies among our industries cannot 1'elp but prove an extraordinary stimulus to trade.
 George M. Reynolds, former secre- tary of the treasury, puts it this way:
 "Of course, a large amount of mon ey will have to be returned to the government in the form of taxes. But prop ,rtionately even that sum will be insignificant The profits of the country that will be most affected by the taxes are so enormous that the part to be set aside for federal re- quirements in time will hardly be noticed. It simply will mean that ! little less can be carried to surplus and that at such g time as this 8 sacrifice which every one should and will be willing to make cheerfully.
 "The next big task will be to pay for the bonds. This means the trans fer to the treasury of large sums be- tween now and Janusry 15. but have no misgivings of the ability for the country to take care of this job, and without serious convenience to anyone. There may be little spells of tightness of money conditions when the largest installmects come due, but the machinery for handling these installments is now working so we'll that these payment periods should be passed without disturbance. Abund- ant money and the availability of re discounts at the federal reserve bank, when necessity arises, strength ems this assurance"
 MT. Reynolds expert diagnosis of the business situation that confronts the nation should be {. source of op- timism to those business men who rlave looked upon tie era of tax paying with misgivings. According to MT. Reynolds. the period is not to be one of decreased but INCREASED
 business.

not credentials from this ,or that body; for both body and credentials are easily manufactured; bu. creden. tials bearing the stamp of approval from some of the governments ad- ministrative commissions. There is no industry in the country that has been neglected by Uncle Sam, there is no condition in life or labor that is not covered by some of his com missions
 Therefore, when advised to act thus and go, either in public conduct or in private life, ask the adviser whence he receives authority to give such ad- vice. Ask if it has the approva; of the United States commission. Ask Eho pays his expenses to propagate thc doctrine. In other words, act with that degree of caution and prudence that the times demand; for, in the circumstances, with Germany conspir- ing and plotting against our very ex- istence. without such prudence we are IS apt to fall tho unwilling vic tim to some insidious Hun spy and American traitor as we are to accom- plish the seeming good contained in the propaganda.
 These are not times to listen to strangers. Home people will always know best. We must all stand togeth- er, even as the boys in the trenches are shoulder to shoulder, and by standing together, working all for all and each for all, we will set at naught all the pernicious efforts Of all the personal. national and inter- national "gold brick" dispensers that can visit our community.

New Orleans Cotton.

New Orleans, Nov. 7.-After an
 irregular opening with some months
 2. points up and others 2 points off,
 cotton fell off here today for small
 decline under selling which seemed
 to be based on bearish comment from
 the stock market. At the end of the first half hour active months were 5 to 10 points under yesterdays close. The advancing tendency of stocks and favorable spot accounts from the belt induced fresh buying and prices improved. At their highest in the
 trading up to noon they were IA to Is points over yesterdays finals.
 A quiet and steady feeling prevail ed in the afternoon and at 1 o'clock prices were to 13 points up net.
 Cotton closed steady ? points down to points up net. The range:

New York Cotton.

NEW YORK. Nov. 1.-The cotton market showed renewed nervousness and irregularity at the opening today. The easy tone of the stock market and the news from Italy contributed to the unsettled running of sentiment
 while the buying for Wall street and
 western account which had been largely responsible for the rally of Monday was not in evidence. First prices were 2 points higher on De- cemher but generally unchanged to g points lower and the active months
 sold about Il to 15 points under Mon-
 days closing figures during the first few minutes There was southern hedging and scattered liquidation but
 Liverpool and trade interests were moderate buyers with the market showing rather steadier tone at slight rallies toward the end of the first hour
 Bullish southern spot advices and
 the appearance of steadier tone in the stock market inspired covering later in the morning. There was con-
 tinued trade buying and few stop orders were uncovered on the ad-
 vance to 27.55 for December, 2681 for January and 26.47 for March, or
 about to IA points above Mondays
 closing figures. Liverpool buying here
 was attributed to covering hedges against sales of cotton arriving in the English market and there was . domestic trade buying of near months supposed to represent uncovering of
 hedges against sales of spots in the south. Business became very quiet
 on the advance with later fluctua- lion irregular.
 Cotton closed barely steady. The ranger

tenance of such minimum was urged as evidence that quotations of future deliveries of corn were still too low. Weather conditions that appear ed unfavorable for handling soft grain tended also to lift the market. Opening prices, which ranged from $-Sc off to 1-sc advance with De cembcr $f.16 1-2 and May SLIP to SLIP 1-o were followed by materi- al upturn all around.
 Slowness of husking returns and the lightness of rural offerings to ar. rive prevented any important set backs. The close was strong, 1 1-2 to 1-Sc net higher with December $11s 3-4 and May $1.13 7-S to $114.

BEWARE OF GOLD BRICKS.

In it's preparation fer conducting the stupendous war that is upon us our government is calling on the people to make radical changes In nearly every branch of public and private life. When the duly qualified government authorities request these changes we may know that we are safe in trying to make them; but our people should beware of any radical measures coming from any other sourcc.
 Listen then to the voice of the gov ernment but turn deaf ear to the whisperings of others. especially If these whisperinSs are of the insidlous nature that bids us enter into plots and schemes and plans that on the face of them may seem beneficial to ourselves and helpful to others. but Carfy with them certain defiance to the established order of things in our community.
 When the people are tense and strained, because of the demands of war. when provisions are at high tide. when there is more or less uneasiness in the land. as is bound to be when the spectre of of war stalks through the country, then the 'gold brick" swindler is sure to multiply and to conduct his nefarious trade with more than ordinary profit. Nor is he found only in the fields of personal profit. His "gold brick" wares take many peculiar forms. He is found in the shape of the agitator who would stir Up sedition and rebellion against the government. He is seen in the clothes of the demagosue who would pose as champion of the people. because the necessities of the war have caused officials to take steps s unusual in the time o. peace, and he, also, present himself in the shape of the Humanitarian ostensibly working for the betterment of classes among tue multitude.
 Beware of one and all of the wiley gentry. Listen not to his solden lip ned tale. It has been prepared fo, him to glibly retail to others. He has been learning it as al actor learns { HE lines, and, because of its fact ]. 3l,eautx < 1t is apt to, attract. to holc aiid fS id to untold mischief. Ds |ES s1poI lbntisls before actin4
