Senator Lewis is a man of Gladstonian
conceptions" said Senator Borah. He fatur-
ally looks at things in big way. Viewing the
situation from the atmosphere of Paris, he
did not give due regard, in my judgment, to
the peculiarly practical feature OF American
politics OF course, If the war should not
end prior to 1920, the only issue would be the
successful prosecution OF the war, and the
only controversy would be as to which party
was best fitted to carry on the war.
But il the war ends prior to 1920, ven
ture to prophesy that Mr. Wilson, il living
will be the candidate of the democratic party
II Colonel Roosevelt is living, he will be the
candidate of the republican party. The DOM
nant issue will be who is to hold the office
of the presidency for the next four years. The
platform will be written from that standpoint
The candidates and what they stand for and
are supposed to stand for will be the platform
No new or doubtful questions will be de-
clared upon, No aggressive and distinct poll
cies will be announced. There will be no pio-
neering in social, economic, or governmental
questions.
"The campaign will revolve around the
transcendent personalities of these two men
Mr. Wilson will be supported upon his rec
ord of having won the war and composed the
affairs of Europe. Mr.. Roosevelt will be sup
ported because of his pronounced American
ism and, as it will be asserted, because he
compelled Wilson to win the war. Neither
party will present any constructive program
as to any essential or economic problems
growing out OF the war, although, of course,
an assurance will be given that all these mata
tiers will be dealt with in proper fashion in
case either is elected. There will be no dis
tinct announcement as to public ownership or
foreign entanglements, no labor program, no
experimenting with the public until public
opinion has been thoroughly gagged after
the war How do I know this? | do not
know it, but am just judging the future by

HEDGE SELLING CONTINUED
 IN NEW YORK COTTON

New Yorw, Oct. 4.-Increased hedge selling and reports of in- proving crop prospects were respon- sibie for q sharp break in the cotton market today.
 Trading was not particularly active ard there was no excitement, but De- cenber broke from 32.15 to 31.53, closing at that level, with the general list closing steady at a net decline of 62 to 105 points.
 The market opened easy at de. cline in response to lower cables, a favorable weather map, southern sell ing and continued selling by houses with Liverpool connections, which, supposed to be to hedge spots pur. chased in the south, encouraged, con fidence in reports of increased spot offerings. &
 The committee on distribution has issued statement assuring domestic spinners individual mills will not be required to use any specific amount of low grade cotton if the trade as d whole can arrange to take the pro- portion ot low grades considered fair

New Orleans, Oct. "A lower range of values was forced on the opening of the cotton market today and the decline persisted throughout 1 the session, lowest levels being reach ed on the close, when the most active months were v to 90 points under last nights final quotations.
 There were practically no reactions from the decline. Offerings came mainly from bearish traders who are impressed with the favorable weather over the belt.
 Hedge selling was also feature.
 Late in the day the market felt selling based on the report that allot- ,nents of ocean tonnage to the cotton trade during October and November had been cut to small proportions.
 The weather was clear, dry and warm and prospects appeared to be for little change during the next day or two.
 Bearish traders claimed the favor able weather was putting a new face on the crop outlook.

With the British Forces in France, oct. Q1 a. m.)-(By The Associa- ted Press.)-A New York division CO., operating with, Australian corps north of St. Quentin encountered the severest opposition, and, altho suffer- ing heavy losses, fought with the greatest bravery, according to an of flcer of the Australian troops in a telegram which he sent today to the General in command of the New York soldiers.
 The Australian officer said that from personnal reconnaissance made by him him over the battlefield east and northease of Duncan. Post it was evident the Americans of this divisions from the outset had met with determined opposition. They pushed forward in the face of an enfilading fire from German ma chine guns.

MARK EFT Reports of Cotton, Grain and
 Provisions
COTTON MARkSY LESS ACTIVE.
2

Associated Press.
 New York, Oct. Tine cotton mar ket has been less active during the past week
 Further and rather wide fluctations have taken place, but there has been little or no excitement and prices have shown tendency to sag as a result of increased hedge selling and a tendency to increase estimates of the crop, particularly since the pub licatiOn of the government report Wednesday.
 The census figures on ginning to Sep. zo fell somewhat below expec- tatons but if anything, the official condition figures and crop sndica- tions were more favorable than look ed for.
 The condition of 54.4 showed much less than the usual falling off for the month and the. crop indication of 11,S1S,000 bales, excluding lnters, showed an increase of nearly 7o0,OO bales, as compared with the end August figures.
 This report was followed by fav- oratle weather in the south and an impression evidently prevails in
 
 tes in December may reach 1000 900 bales.
 Meanwhile bearish traders point out that both domestic mill consump- tion and exports are running be- hind last years figures
 Selling on this theory has been held , in check by the possibility of an early frost. Warnings against over optimism regarding peace prospects seemed to be having some effect on sentiment toward the end of the week.
 There also are approximations in some quarters that restrictions on distribution will continue sometime after the war is actually ended.
 Liverpoops selling has been attri- huteo chiefly to hedging against spot purchases in the south.
 Picking is reported making rapid progress.
 The British allotment of ocean freight room for November shipment amounted to 150,00O bales

Chicago, Oct. 4.-The national base es1I eaIl commission aina;,! has decided to prop championships Boston club, who after the worlds series, engaged in a barn storming trip under the name of Red Sox," President Johnson of the American league announced tonight.
 Bullet Joe" Bush, the pitcher. Shang, Strunk, and Mayer are among the players under investigation.
 Exhibition games were played in violation of the commissions orders to disband at the close of the series.
 President Johnson also said that the commission had practically decia- ed to deprive the Boston players of the individual emblems usually pres ented to worlds series winners be- cause of the part they played in stalking the "strike" before the fifth game of the series.
 The strike was intended to force the commission to increase the players share of the receipts.
