Joe Bailey. of Texas and New York
got mixed up with some Standard Oil
money some years ago. and retired
from public life. He thinks he be-
longs to big business now. and the
policies Of the Democratic party do
not suit him at all. Organized greed
has got him and is speaking through
him and he thinks he is talking for
himself. Give a man enough money,
and nothing has rights but money
Legislation and government for the
average man then becomes crime.

precisely the same political and social
ideals as the United States: the only
difference Is that the countries OF Latin

application Of these ideals. What we
shall aim at In La Nueva Democracia
In to emphasize the essential solidarity
of the American continent, in the sense
hat President Monroe intended II to be
emphasized when he formulated his
famous doctrine. We believe that in
the large sense the interests Of the
whole American continent are identical.

NEW YORK COTTON

NEW YORK, Nov. lS.-The cotton
market opened steady at an advance
Of one to 50 points, generally one to %
points higher, with December selling
at 37.05c and January 35.70c after the
call on buying encouraged by higher
cables and bullish overnight spot ad-
vices. Demand was restricted, however,
by the weakness OF foreign exchange
and -apprehensions of money and coal
restrictions and prices soon turned cas-
Ter under renewed liquidation, Decem-
Der selling off to 36.55c and January to
$3.50, or about 10 to SO points net
lower.
The market showed increasing weak
ness late in the morning under active
Wall street and local selling. while there
was also heavy Southern liquidation and
sentiment seemed to be very much un-
settled over the coal situation. De-
cember broke to 36.25c and January to
S4.S5c, with active months generally
selling so to rs points net lower around
middav.
Selling became less active around
34.A for January ard the market
showed rallies Of 10 or Is points from
the lowest during the middle Of the
afternoon on trade buying and cover
ing.
Spot cotton quiet; middling, 49, 5c.
Futures closed steady at a decline Of
100 to 1873 points.

RECORD FOR NEWSPAPER

PARIS, Nov, 1S-All records for daily
newspaper circulation We're broken yes
terday, when 5000, 900 copies of the
Presse de Paris were distributed. Copy
was centralized at the office Of the
Petit Parisien, where proofreaders and
makeup men were kept busy and
where the stereotypers prepared the
plates. The presses of the Petit Pari-
sien proving inadequate, plates were
sent to the offices Of the Matin, journal
and Petit Journal, where the presses
were running at high speed throughout
the morning,
In its noon edition the socialist rews-
paper Bon Soir acknowledged the de-
feat Of its party. "Clemenceau is VIC
%torlous, terribly and appallingly victorl-
ous,' II said. THE republic, however,
is not so victorious"
As far as can be Judged by results
now known the elections just held were
the most conservative since the national
assembly Of 1871 was elected.

today largely because country offerings

Besides, il vas announced that all avail
able freight cars were being rushed

ing prices which ranged from the same
as yesterdays finish to one cent higher,
including December at s1.SoS to $l.3IA
and May $1.2Sh to $1.25h, were followed
by material advances all around.
Later the threatened embargo on rail-
way freight owing to the coal strike be-
came the principal bullish factor, and
made December shorts especially anx-
ious. The close was firm, 1h44Ac net
higher, with December $1.34h@l.34h

ed again.
Provisions sympathized with the ad-

Slowness OF cash demand for lard
