FrouiOurLiegular Correspondent. Washington, Nov. 5, 1894. If anv proof were needed that Sec retary Carlisle was dealing with the charge that Mr. Morton had impor ted an English coachman under, contract in violation of the alien contract labor law, it is furnished by his decision, that the man is a domes tic servant in Mr. Morton’s employ and consequently exempt from the provisions of the law'. In order to arrive at that decision it was neces sary for Secretary Carlisle to reverse previous decisions made by Secreta ry Windom in 1890, and Assistant Secretary Spauiuimr in 1891. Had he beeu disposed to make partisan capital out • ot the case lie might have ordered the coachman deported and cited the two republican decis ions mentioned as precedents for his action. It is probable that congress will be asked to amend that section of the alieu contract labor law un der which this charge was made, as Secretary Carlisle thinks the courts and not tlie Secretary of the Treas- ury, shou’d settle such disputed questions. President Cleveland lias ordered another extension of t he civil ser- yice rules. This time all clerical em ployes receiving less than $900 per annuur, all messengers auil watchmen employed tinder the government are put under the rules. Speaking of the matter, civil service Commission er Proctor, who is naturally much pleased at the extension said, “You may expect more of the same sort. There are further extensions in con templation that only await the ar rangement of minor details, which will be perfected at approaching con ferenoes between this commission and the heads of the several depart ments. For some reason the number of democratic office holders who went homo to vote fell below expectations and it will not be surprising If a large number of the delinquents spend a yery disagreeable half hour with their congressmen when con gress gets back to Washington. No democrat comes out ofthocam- palgn higher in the estimation of the rank and file, the tuen who are always not occasionlly, found working heart and soul for the success of the,party, whether its candidates are their uer* sonai enemies—of the party than does Vice President Stevenson. He lias been wherever the fight was the hottest from the beginning of the campaign, having given up all per sonal plans and Tor the time placed himself entirely at the disposal of the party managers, who kept him on the stump continuously. Such willing work and such good wors isn’t likely to be soon forgotten. Mrs. Cleveland ha (accepted an in vitation from the Cramp’s, the Phil adelphia shipbuilders, to christen the American Line Steamship, St. Louis, which will be launched next Monday. The President will not be able to go. but. Mrs. Cleveland will be accompanied by a small par ty of friends, leaving here Monday morning in aprivate car and return ing the same afternoon. It will not be surprising to mem bers of the diplomatic corps should the relations between this country and Germany become much strained, if nothing more serious occurs, on account of Germany prohibiting tlie importation of American cattle and dressed beef without any re »1 ex cuse for such unjust action. It is known that this government has in* tiuiated very strongly to Germany that it isn’t inclined to accept the ridiculous excuse put forward—feur of Texas fever—aud that it has made a protest clothed in vigorous but di plomatic language. There the nut ter rests at present but it will not be allowed to rest there. Germany may find that if retaliation is to be the game the United Htates holds the winning hand. The annual report of Gon. Casey, Chief of Engineers of the U. B. A., just, made public, again brings ^oi- ward tile recommendation that a separate building be provided by Congress to he used for office pur poses by the president. The neces sity for such a building is so appar ent that the only wonder is that it has not long ago been erected. The president is the only official of the Government who is expected to re side in the same building In which lie transacts his official business. The idea is so repugnant to President Cleveland that during his first as well as his present administration lie has owned a residence in order that he and liis family might get the privacy that cannot be had at the White House. At this writ ing they are residing in his own house on t Lie outskirts of Washington, the President driving to the White house every day to transact Ills official business. The White House should either bo the Executive office or the President’s residence, it should not be both. — ♦ —.— St ItfEay 2Do as JVIncU for TTou. ilr.

It has long beeu a no'orious fact that tlie original producers of cotton in this country get. a far smaller share than any body else of the prof its whieh it yields before it reaches th“ mill. Speculators, brokers, spin ners ami capitalists manage to se cure tlie balk of the rich returns which the magnificent cotton fields of the Son 1 ti render possible. Tlie trouble is that the grower as a rule lias not capital enough to enable him to handle his pro duct as he would like to. To a large extent he has gone in debt for it. before it was raised; and wtien it is picked lie has no clmuce, in tlie majority of cases, but to sell it for wliateeer lie cau get. The cot ton producers of tlie Soutli ought to he rieli men by rights. That they are not is only too well known. Mr. John T. Roddey, a native ot South Carolina, now doing business in New York as a member of the cotton brokerage firm of John T. Roddey A Co., of 89 Broadway, lias suggested a plan whereby the cotton growers of the South cau protect tin mselvee. This plan is to the effect that the growers shall form a giuan tic combination or com any, with a capital of $59.000,000,to $100,090,090 by ueans of which the planters vfould be er.titied to hold their cotton and sell only when the prices suited them. Mr, Roddey, in an address to the the planters, says: “In case you receive ten centB for your cotton instead of five ceut.s fcioh you are now receiving, yot* save on a .crop of 8.000.000 bales about $200,000,000, at least twice as much as the cap tal stock of the trust, company. In case speculators should become frightened even at the men tion of the trust and advance the patce of cotton, so miioh the better for you, but very likely they would attempt at first to bluff you.’’ The obj ion lias been raised that the plm ter* have no uiont^y with which to !••• a s icIi a gigantic com* binatioo <nd Mr. Roddey meets this by sugire-tUig: “First,I think and bolievo the stock of thecompany can be paid in without your being out in reality one cent; this seems absurd, but say that in a crop of 8,000,000, for eyery five bales a farmer grows he take stock to tlie extent of one bale. That would leave a crop of 6,400,000 to he marketed, the 1,600,000 being set aside as capi tal stock for the company and taken out of tlie available supply. Now ] verily believe that G,400,(io0 hales of cotton will bring in value fully as much as 8,000,000—the difference which bus gone to speculators and manufacturers will be set aside for you in stock tlie first year. In case of a crop failure you have your stock in the company to fall back on, and the company can sell part or all their cotton provided the price is high enough, lint in no case permit the market to lie flooded witii cot ton. It would tie to your interest to sell nil your cotton to tlie company at the market price, as, of course, if any profit, you would receive the benefit of it through vour stock. “Let books of bu ascription be opened at every town and city in the South. In regard to tlie man agement of the company, have oue general or head office, say in New York oi New Orleans, with two gen eral directors from each cotton growing state, with one Director from each county in tlie state, and have sub-offices iu ail tlie principal cities and towns in the different states to control tlie local cotton, all to be controlled by the general or head office; have either a special In surance company organized or the piosent companies brought to a low rate, let company warehouse res oeipts be issued, with insurance pol icies, und if the tanner ueeds money, let tlie company advance hlui five- eighths or two-thirds of the value of ills warehouse receipts, let the head office make tlie financial ar rangements on tlie warehouse re ceipts. By this means money could be furnished at a very low rate of interest. Let tlie head office instruct when to sell certain lots of cotton or hold until n certain price isoffered. The farmer, in this way, could not be forced to sell his cotton. Arrange so that in case a farmer wishes to sell, ten or oue huudred bales, with so much advanced on it, lie might sell or transfer his warehouse re ceipts to his creditors. These ware house receipts could be made trans ferable or bills of exchange. Of course all this warehouse cotton would have to be we'ghed and graded. These ideas could probably be improved upon at a meeting to be held by those interested and which should be held as soou as practica ble.” As may be supposed, Mr. Roddey’s suggestion has caused a tremendous sensation. Tbe speculators in New York and elsewhere are alarmed be yond measure, and tlie Boulliern plaiiteis are delighted. There is no doubt but tlie thing can be done if those concerned will but “put their shoulders to the wheel.” If five cent cotton will not stluui. late tne planters to make au effort to help themselves we do not know what will. It is quite certain, also, tiiat unless they do something, and that right speedily, they will get deepi r iu the mud than they are now in ttie mire. 01 r. Roddey says that he would be glad to meet a repre- seutative cotton grower from each. State or Alliance, either iu Now York or iu some Southern city, in order to put. matters into definite shape.

Planting the Standard All hail Columbus! Behold the great navigator as he lands. The perils of the deep are past. The clouds of fear have vanished. Tho night of gloom has ended. In the heavens the sun of success shine.; resplendent. Morning has dawned. Imperiously the banner of haughty Spain greets the day light. Upon its fluttering folds are inscribed the destinies of a new world. Its gleaming surface marks a long advance in the evo lution of the human race. It tells a story of prophecy unpar alleled, of developement unap- proached in the fullness of re corded time. It crowns with triumph the efforts of genius. The World’s Pair contained no finer statue of the great discoverer than this colossal figure. It commanded from its pedestal the eastern entrance to the Administration build ing. Tho majesty of its dimensions, the vigor and aggres siveness of its expression and the artistic finish of its coin position made it admired as a genuine sculptural triumph. Another Standard Proudly Displayed at the Fair was that of Dr. Price’sCream Baking Powder A Standard of Excellence for Forty Years. It was the standard of unequalled strength, perfect purity and wholesome results. The award to Dr. Price's of highest honors at the Fair furnishes conclusive evidence of its superiority over all other baking powders.
