One of the arguments which the advocates of the dispensary advanced Is that its Bbol Itton would Increase taxes,- the" other chief argument being that Raleigh would" be full of blind tlgors.

La;:.um's Careful Ecview of Cut ton Conditions and Future Out look for Trade and Prices ' -Special to Journal, 2 - ' -' . Greensboro, N. C, -Decembe? 14. Several things of great Importance to the cotton trade have transpired dur ing the" past week, and-prices have fluctuated wildly, but the net changes are -not large,, being 30. points net lower. First came the . glnners-'., re port, which flhows,8,388,854 bales ginn ed to December 1, against 10,b26,OQO glpned ta sante date last year,' hut the most Important comparison Is that the month of November shows ginning of 2.221,854 against 3,119,000 last year. It Is difficult to see how much a fall ing, off could take place in this period, even if the crop is Bmall one; .The government" estimate 2 is Jl,678,000 bales,' which is larger than? wait gen eral ly expected. This estimate for threV years past hap each year been more than a million bales under the crop, and in no instance has"' the es timate exceeded the ecomemrcial crop. Some people, especially, those ftr Eu rope,' seem, to regard thi report as not far. from right- because Jt la not materially below estimates by "private sources, an dthe different cotton ex changes .of the world." :rade condi ,tions are lesa.brilllant in Europe.' In America, the-vituatloa' Is- far-trpm cheerful, and in some eases It is really bad. The consumption of cotton will certainly, be very largely curtailed at homeland to some extent abroad, The amount of curtailment cannot be fore cast -at thiCtlme. . Farmers holding is a yery important factor- for con sideration, v So far, he has proven' his inclination,, also his ability,) because he refuses to sell . when the market Is not to his liking. --This holding has heretofore been uncertain in- charac ter, and while admitting the possibil ity," even th0 probability,: of certain amount being , carried into next crop, the amount will not jikely be- mpor tant.with prices at 11 cents and over. Southern spinners have had meet ing during the present,, and aa agree ment to curtail production has been entered, into, tfnd more milia are ex pected to-jollof; ault the- American fleet of battleships are "ready 7 to aaji to" the Pacific ocean. This movement of wahipa is said to be on a peace ful mission, and this is probably true on the. principle that ""a sUtch in'time saves nine.". Looking t the situation front speculative standpoint,' while the farmer continues ot hold back, it is asyJ:o-ee that the present market may be sustained or advanced, " From an1 .economic standpoint,-however,, I believe the developments later on will unfold a situation that will be unfav orable to.bullish operations, and bring lower prices, r At present the" market has many friends, in, addition to the farmer,- and no. important -decline in the. hear" future-appears likely, possibUity of Special' Session Special to Journal :, v- Raleigh, C Decemberr44.'
