The American Coffee Syndicate has
succeeded in raising the price ot spot
coffees and futures abroad on the
strength of a possible drouth.
The world’s visible supply of cot-
ton including everything afloat and

the Continent, is 1,030,000 bales
against 752,000,000 this time last
year.
The independent cigar manufac-
turers of the country have organized
a new concern to fight the alleged
tobacco trust from monopolizing all
the raw material in the United States.
Another new copper combination
has just been organized under the
laws of Virginia, to operate tn the
copper regions of the northwest with
an alleged capital of $100,000,000.
The speculators in breadstuffs in

The American Novelty Company

tion which is to concentrate the man-

The shortage of coal and coke,

cars and locomotives are all converg-
ing to force up the price of finished

The treasury of the United States
has exhausted its resources to meet
the financial requirements of the
country, and if another stringency
occurs, which is not likel/, the bus-
ness of the country will have to get
along as well as it can.
Not for twenty years have their
been as many vital politic and econ-
omic issues before the people of the
United States as at the present time.
They include tariff revision, recip-
rocity, commercial treaties with the
nations of the world, transportation
problems, labor problems and many
others. In the development ot these
coming grest issues a new crop ot
statesmen will arise that will remind
us somewhat of the statesmen that
were brought to the fore during the
ten years following the close of the
Civil war. It will be a good thing
for the country tf a score or two oi
the fossil political leaders could be
shoved aside by a younger, branier
class of statesmen who will repre-
sent the future and its possibilities
rather than the past and its tomb-
stones.

German bankers have been driven
to combine by the aeme influences
that have brought about banking
combinations in this country. ' The
combination is partly due to the fact
that lower and middle classes and
the peasant iarmera have been de-
nouncing the banks for every ill
which they have suffered.
The action of the secretary in de-
ciding to accept securities other than
the Government bonds themselves is
the policy which the old Greenback
patty of thirty years ago so stren-
uously advocated. There is after all
when the thing is sifted down to a
fine point and freed from political
bias, no good reason fiom a business
point of view, why such a policy
would not be attended with good re-
sults. The people of the United
States would be a great deal better
off if the $600,000,000 tied up in the
treasury were in circulation and in
place thereof there were $600,000,000
worth of good sound paying securi-
of municipalities all over the
United States. At least, a horse
with good sense would think so.
Quite a numbtr of big combines
who have printed about $500,000,-
000 worth of industrial securities for
the purpose of throwing them on the
open market, have been obliged, on
account of the financial stringency,
to defer any farther effort* in that
direction, but they are ready for the
present financial storm to blow by.
Before many days pass it is possi-
ble that seventy big cotton mills, lo*
cated in Virginia, North and South
Carolina, Georgia, Alabama and
Tennessee will be united in a great
combioe, to be called the Southern
Textile Company. Northern money
will finance the combination, but
the controlling management will be
in the hands of southern manufac-
turers. This huge combination will
have an important influence on cot-
on manufacture in the south.
The great combination of the At-
lantic Ocean Steamship companies,
under the leadership of J. P. Mor-
gan, is about to be fallowed by a
like merger of the Oriental Steam-
ship Lines, which will probably re-
sult in the construction of a number
of additional vessels of immense
freighting capacity.
Almost tabulous sums of money
are being now raised to carry on ex-
traordinary improvements in South
Africa and along its coasts, with a
view of developing its commercial
manufacturing and agricultural and
mining facilities for the benefit of
British commerce. About $ 15,000,-
000 are now to be expended on the
harbor works of Table Bay, Port
Elizabeth, East London and Mos-
sed Bay. Large sums are to be ex-
pended on roads and railways, and
on new and additional buildings and
•beds at various points, additional
tug*, lighters, piers, wharves, quay
walls, breakwater extensions, etc.
tation and of light has been greater
than where individual antarpriaa was
entrusted with the management of
such work. A list of loaaes
ot cities it published which
would go to show that attar all the
spirit of individual initiative is the
bast for the general public.
The business of repotting the
commercial standing of business
men, storekeepers and all others in
business ia likely to assume larger
proportions. Heretofore each great
business interest has had an estab-
lished organization to report the fin-
ancial standing of the merchants who
handle its goods only. For instance,
the National Association of Cloth-
iers, embracing n membership of
250 leading firms, with a yearly out-
put ot $ 100,000,000 and employing
a working fore* of 200,000 hands
have maintained an organization of
their own at a cost of from $50 to
$125 annually on each member of
the association, to report the finan-
cial standing of all the retailers in the
United States who handle the cloth-
ing they manufacture. A scheme it
now being put on foot to induce all
other great manufacturing interests
to adopt their well tried plan and
to draw all interests under one head.
Fourteen additional vessels have

It is estimated that the American
raisin crop this year will be 1,000,-
000 pounds. The largest crop ever
produced was in 1893 when it was
103,000,000 pounds. Since then
many vinyards have been uprooted
and no new vinyards have been
started. The distilling capacity tor
grapes bas been more than doubled
during the past two years.

Peru is likely to be also invaded by
American capital upon a large acale

and extending to 16,000 feet at the
summit of the Andes in that coun-
try.

The Pennsylvania Railroad Co.,
on account of the scarcity of anthra-

5,000,000 tons more soft coal from
the mines east of Pittsburg to con-

THE GREAT STRIKE GALLED OFF.
Tuesday, October at, the repre-
sentatives of *47,000 mie workers
assembled at Wilkesbarre, Pa,, de-
clared the great strike off, thus dot-
ing the greatest contest of labor
against capital ever known in the
history of this country. The vote
was a unanimous one and wai greet-
ed with a shout that fairly shook the
convention hall. President Roose-
velt was soon alter notified ot the re-
sult by President Mitchell, by wire.
The miners reported for work
Thursday, October 23. Most of
the non-union miners are leaving,
and it is believed that sll the old un-
ion men wilt get employment es
soon aa the mines can be put in con-
dition to work. There was great
eathosiMtn ell over the mining re-
gion when the news of the result of
of the convention was reported over
the wires. After the strike was de-
clared off, the following resolutions
were adopted:
"Resolved, That we, the duly elected
representatives of men and boys empfoy-
ed In and around the anthracite mines,
do now, in convention, renew our tealty
to the Union Mine Workers of America,
ot whose membership we are nearly one-
half.
"Resolved, That we extend our sin-
cere thanks to our brothers in the soft
coal fields for their more than generous
assistance.
"Resolved, That we exprese our feel-
ings ot gratitude to the wage earners of
the world for the material asstsUnce they
have rendered in securing a victory for
ourseivet and organized labor.
"Resolved, That we herein give ex-
pression to our deep sense of apprecia-
tion of the interest and support of the
general public.
"Resolved, That we acknowledge our
debt of gratitude to that portion of the
pulpit and the press of our country that
has been ot such immense moral support
to our contention; and
, "Resolved, That to the representatives
of National, State and municipal govern-
ments who have used their good offices
to secure a settlement ot our dispute, we
express our full appreciation and extend
our thanks."
All the members of the arbitra-
tion committee appointed by the
President signified their acceptance,
and the President has notified them
to meet in Washington Friday, the
24th inst, to artange for taking tes
timony. It will probably be several
week* before the committee will be
prepared to report.

The settlement of the coal strike,
which means so much to such a
large number of Americans, is as
good as accomplished and the peo-
ple must thank Mr. Roosevelt for
the result. As President Mitchell
remarks in his letter accepting the
arbitration commission appointed by
the President, if the operators had
been willing to submit the matter to
arbitration at the outset, and as they
have done now, .there need have
been no strike. It is to be hoped
that the lesson of the anthracite
strike of 1901 will burn deep and
will result in the calling in of fair
and disinterested arbitrators in all
future labor difficulties.

Senator Morgan of Alabama was
in Washington recently and did not
hesitate to state hit position in re-
gard to the coal situation. He said
"Senator Hill ia wrong and Attor-
ney General Knox is right.” The
coal trust and eyery other trust can
be settled by the common law and
enactments perfectly within the
power ot congress. It remains to
be teen, however, if any republican
majority will dare to enact a law
which will give auch proper power
to the President or his attorney gen-
eral.

T. D. Hancock announce* as in-
dependent candidate for constable.
From the Gazetteer can learn
Mr. Hancock stands a very good
chance of being elected. Mr. Han-
cock needa no introduction to the
people of Denison. He is e pio-
neer citizen and is held in high es-
teem. Mr. Hancock is a contractor
and builder. The working men will
give him almost their unanimous
support, which will go a long way
towards his election. If elected he
will not wink at a violation of laws,
but perform bis duties without fear
or tavor. Every voter ia this pre-
cinct can conscientiously give Mr.
Hancock their suffrage. The Ga-
zkttxrr is confident if elected
be will discharge bit official duties
in a manner that everyone can re-
fer with pleasure to the fact that
they voted far him. In the Choice
ot constable politics should cut no
figure, the best often should be
elected.

If Jim Younger had been given
an unconditonal pardon and allowed
to return to dear old Missouri, the
rath act of suicide would never have
been committed. It was a cruel
sod unjust law that prevented him
from marrying the woman he loved.
Half of the blood-curdling stories
told of the Younger Brothers are
lies. Their long and heroic impris-
onment atoned for any misdeed on
their part. When the war closed
the Youngers had no home. Perse-
cuted, hunted, shot, driven away
from among their people, a price
put upon their head, all avenues of
an honest living closed, what else
could the brothers do ? They had to
live. We call them outlaws, but a
cruel fate made them to. There
never was a more cowardly and un-
necessary law than that which pre-
vented the brothers from going to
their farmer home. It is a great
pity that Jim Younger killed him-
self, for events were shaping to
that he could travel the world a free
man. Jim is gone, and poor Cole
is alone. Of all the brothers he ia
the last, and he is passing into the
season of the sere and yellow
leaf. We hope the time will come
when he may go home and his
last days be passed in the bos-
om o' relatives and friends
who know and appreciate hit true
worth better than a co’d and blood-
less public opinion. Here is a little
reliable history:
A lot of Federal bushwhackers
robbed and afterwards murdered in
the public highway, the father of
the Younger Brothers. Col. Young-
er lived in Jackson county when the
war broke out. It ia claimed that
he waa a Union sympathizer, but
when a party of Federal scouts rode
down through Jackson county, burn-
ed the livery stable and rode away
with nearly fifty head of his horses,
Younger threw in [his lot with, the
"rebels.”
Here ia another incident: John
Young it, one of the brothers was
hung, and Mrs. Younger, the moth-
er, was forced at the point of a rifle,
to set fire to her own bouse and
watch its total destruction.
In view of auch horrible treatmect
who will blame the brothers for
hating the very name "Federal” or
"Yankee.” It is this class, who
started the Youngers on their course
and were responsible tor the James
boys.
