The shocking disclosure of the lavish use of money by aspirants for the Pc publican nomination for the highest of flee in the gift of the people has created a painful impression throughout the coun- try. Viewed in connection with tne re- cent conviction of 2 Republican senator from the state of Michigan for the crim- inal transgression Of the law limiting ex~ penditures or behalf of a. candidate for the United States senate, it indicates the re-entry, under Republican auspices, of money as an influential factor iJ, elections, thus nullsrying tha letter and Haunting the spirit of numerous laws, enacted by the people, to protect the ballet from the contamination of corrupt practices.

New Orleans Cotton


 New Orleans, April 4.-Weather and crop news in the cotton market today was distinctly unfavorable, but the rail- road strike made for caution on the long side and instead of undertaking fresh operations, many bullish traders were disposed to even up and realize profits. This led to more or less short selling on the theory that reaction might set in at anyt time, but sellers for short ac- count themselves were rendered cautious by the storm to the northwest of the cot ton region which, to many cotton men, threatened further rain and bad wealth CT for sections which need dry weather in order to complete preparations for the new crop The net results of the days business were declines of to 2l pomts.
 Reports of very cold weather i'll the interior failed to give the market strength on the opening, and in the early trading there were losses of % to 23 points under poor cables and the railroad troubles. For a while the market was unsettled, but gradually the demand increased on expectations of bullish weekly crop re- ports from the government. and just be- fore they were issued prices were b to l2 points over yesterdays close on the most active months.
 While the crop returns were as bad as expected telling of very backward planting they created little fresh demand and finally offerings became more than the ring could absorb, with the heaviest selling coming late in the session, when the trading months were 70 to 3l points under yesterdays close, May trading down to 40. 49c.

NEW STRENGTH
 SHOWS UP IN CORN
 ON HIGH WHEAT
Oats Also Make Fractional Gains, While Provisions Varied 10c
 Down to 20c Up

Chicago, April 14--Strength de- veloped in the corn market today largely as 8 result of the high prices prevailing for wheat.
 The close was nervous, at $ to 1 Is net advance. Oats gained A to hc. In provisions the outcome varied from 10 cents decline to rise of FOG.
 From the outset in the corn mar ket much notice was taken of the fact that exporters were paying 60 cents or more above the established mini mum for wheat. Besides the govern ment weekly crop report was con- strued as bullish, for it said the con dition of winter wheat was in general unsatisfactory, and that seeding, germ ination and growth of other grain had been retarded by unfavorable. In ad- dition the opinion was widely accepted that receipts of corn were likely to be small for considerable time evei after the switch strike came to an end. During the last part of the day some temporary weakness was shown because of seaboard exporters can ceiling transactions in oats, presum- ably Canadian. The cancelling, how ever, was to provide increased vesse room for wheat and rye.
 Oats were governed by sympathy with corn
 Provisions averaged higher. reflected upturns in the value of hogs ant grain.
