WAR ON "BUCKET SHOPS"
Bankers and Brokers viii Meet This
Afternoon

Bankers and brokers desiring to put
an end to the bucket shop evil will
hold a meeting at ! o'clock at 1911
Walnut street today to discuss ways OF
checking the operations of irrcsponsi :
BE brokerage concerns.
The meeting was called by Harry c.
Thaycr. Il member Of the New York
Stock Exchange. Mr.. Thayer does not
think that stock exchanges can enforce
rules strong enough to protect the pub
lie from bucket shops" because many
of the small tirms'belong TO no exchange
and. therefore. cannot be checked or
governed by stock exchange rules.
His idea is that there should be leg !.
islation putting brokerage concerns un-
der strict State inspection
Mr.. Thayer thinks that brokers should
furnish bond on beginning business
for the protection of creditors. that they
should be under the supervision of the
State Banking Department and thar IL
should be made felony for broker to
make any false statement In connection
with h>confirmatlon of purchase or sale
of stock.

In his story of the recent meeting of the Arkansas Press Association at Little Rock, Editor Hudson of the Dierks Banner says:
 Granville Cubage, a newspaper man and candidate for superintendent Of education on d reactionary platform was there. but he was so sheepish that he did not appear at the sessions or mingle with the boys. He appeared to be ashamed of the clap-trap politics he is endeav0ring to play i'll running on an issue that we do not believe he indor,es in reality, but which he has seized upon with the hope of getting office From expressions freely made at the convention.

REVIEW OF THE
 COTTON TRADE
Weak at the Opening, But Re- ports of Hot Winds in Texas Resulted Tn
 Advances.

New Orleans, July 16.=I nfayorable foreign news caused moderately wide declines in the price of cotton ill the early part of this week after which complaints of hot winds portions of Texas resulted in strong recoVeries ana small net advances. Toward the end of the week private reports told of T considerable volume of ginning of new cotton being done in the earliest DOT ti0ns of Texas and the market fell off again. the close being h points under to points over the close of the pre- ceding week Al the highest the list showed net gains of T. 10 3s points. while at the lowest it stood at net losses of 57 t0 73 points the range of prices being S2 to 103 points. oc. tober sold off to 21 2s=cam back 10 22.31 and closed at 21 s2 In the spot departmet middling closed net un. changed at 2250 cents pound. which price compared with l1Ss on the close of this week last year.
 Labor conditions in this country were against prices for awhile. as wa~ also the weakness in foreign exchange. but later in the week such features were balanced by the reduction in the Bank of England rate to 1 per cent During the greater part of the week it was altogether weather market. and at the time when Texas was sending out complaints of hot winds. trading became very heavy with shorts cover ing in large way. This sort of buying helped to carry the market 10 its high est levels After the middle of the week temperatures were somewhat lower in the western belt and reports of much cotton being gnned attracted much at tenti0n, especially as il was claimed that ginning would increase in the near future
 Statistics of the week were given il bullish interpretation The Census Blu reau report of l07 S69 bales consumed in this country during June was larger than expected and the visible supply of American cotton. according to Hester, fell to 2.21s.027 bales against 4,112 143 at this time last year. showing a de crease for the week of l25. .S23 bales. against q decrease this week last year of 92 .622 bales.

 Professor l. S. Waterman. head Of the Depa rtment of Economics of tn" University of Arkansas. who has made an exhaustive study of the principles of taxation. concludes that should tha Severance Tax be levied in Arkansas at the highest rates other states have found to be reasonable and practical. it would produce annually not more than S1000,000 and probably not to exceed $500, 900 4 large part of this would come from oil and gas and il is well known that unless new fields are constantly developed the output of oil and gas rapidly decreases.
 But let Us assume said Mir Fut. rall. that the tax would continue to produce sS00000 year If all this were given to the public schools it would mean only little more than Sl
