A DISASTROUS FORGETTING
(From Pathhnderl.

(FTOM HdluUuu6IJ.
Think how far this country has
departed from its original "Jeffer-
sonian principles" Think what
mountains of debt and troubles we
have piled up because we refused to
follow the solemn warnings of Wash
ington and Jefferson, not to become
involved in foreign entanglements." "
Now, read this hot shot from Thos.
Jefferson; it was written over a CEN
tury ago, but oh, with what startling
aptness it applies to our situation
right today, in the year 1888:
when peace becomes more los
ing than war, we may prefer the lat
ter on principles of pecuniary cal
culation. But for us to attempt
war to reform all Europe and bring
them back to principles of morality
and respect for equal rights of ma
tions would show us to be only man
iacs of another character"
OF course, we are now hopelessly
tangled up in the affairs of those
European nations. Jefferson had liv-
ed over there and he knew them in
timately. Yet, we could not keep
from meddling in their World War.
We made an immense sacrifice of hu-
man life, we lent them our hard
earned money until we were bank
rupted. We still have those obliga-
tions to pay, but those borrowing
nations have no intension of repay
ing us. And still worse, they do not
even show us any gratitude, but they
picture Uncle Sam as Uncle Shy
lock-"
The wise words of Washington,
Jefferson and other great leaders
who have known what they were
talking about and whose interests
did not lean at all to international
poppycockism ought to be preserved,
framed and hung on the walls of
every court, office, school and home
in the land, so the next generations
will not have to plead that they for
got.
A few doubling Thomases are ex-
pressing fear that President Roose-
welt is going to get the United States
tangled up in those same Old World
quarrSls anew, and that we shall
have to join in any fighting. The
Pathfinder of course has no author
ity to speak for the President, but
we believe this fear is absolutely
without foundation. 1t is true that
Europe does hope to ensnare us
again, and make us foot the bills
but the man who is now in the White
House has shown himself to be so
set against any such
idea that we say again, we are con:
fident he is going to follow the ad-
vice of Washington and Jefferson,
and not that of others who have been
more interested in other nations
than they have in the homeland.

sold at less than 80 cents until further

trading day.
If it chanced to close at 95 cents the
frst day on the second day Of trading
It could be bought and sold for as much
1t 81 and not less than 80 cents.
: If by another chance 1t closed at 81
nm the second day. on the third trading
day it could sell for as much as $l.05
and not less than 95 cents.
Thus its range could be cents

and it can change its rules from Time 10

at 6 cents a pound, with farmers to
pocket as part payment for reducing
their crop the difference between 6
cents and the price at which the cotton
was finally sold.
During Thursday and Friday cotton
prices fell of sharply and the margin
which the farmer could realize poten-
TALLY on the options was reduced.

farmers 80 far haven't been given the
options, 50 they could not have taken
them up before the slump.

up that portion Of their fields.
