legislation and capital secures all it asks.
He believed the labSrer to bo entitled

and impartial action should be taken.
The only court for the workingman to
appeal to is justice. Rev. c. Il. Baker, of
Brooklyn, believed thst the gains OF the
world always came from the poor; never
from the rich. He favored war against
capital. Rev. Henry Mott believed that
rich and poor both suffer from ignorance,
and argued that education was the thing
needed. Others spoke briefly on both
sides Of tho question. The session ad-
iourned at q late hour.

A State Judge Indicted An the Federal
Courts.

LOUISVILLE, Oct. 10-Circuit Judge
II. NJ. Finley, of mountain district, was
indicted in the United States circuit court
to-day. The cause of his Indictment was
the arrest of John V. l., Brown, United
States deputy marshal, some months ago.
Brown, who is famous 'moonshine"
hunter, had arrested u mountainoor for
running an illiciu distllery. The same
man was wanted in the state court on q
charge of assault aud battery. When the
case was called in Judge Finley's court
the prisoner was not forthcoming. and it
appeared that the deputy marshal had
MIN in Jail. Judge Finley ordered the
deputy to bring the man into court, but
this Brown refused to do. He afterward
staid in the Jail to see that the state
officials did not take the prisoner away
from him. On account of this conflict
between tho federal and state authorities
judge Finley sent Brown to Jail for
twonty-four hours for contempt of court.
Judge Finley is prominent man in his
nnrt of the state.

statistics of our lumber interest. Will
our mill men and lumber men be kind
enough to send in 10 us whatever they
can give? Write US what you know
about your business, and we will be
pleased to utilize it for your benefit.
Tell us what you have done, and
what remains to be done, IN order
that we may all advance. Remember,
it is our first and last object, to make
good our motto, that the Echo is a
paper for the people. 1t is always at
the disposal Of the people, and we are
never SO happy as when we are enabled
SO to nse its columns. And when we
call on our lumber men we want our
stock raisers and farmers to remem-
Der that we have them in mind too,
and hope to hear from them also. The
world is hungry 10 know about your
doipgs, in raising cattle, horses, sheep,
goats and hogs, and corn, potatoes,
rice, cane, cotton, wheat, rye, oats,
fruits, and all kinds of garden truck.
Begin now, and write US in regard
to these matters, and enable US TO
keep you properly before the world's
visitors at the Exposition. The Echo
will be there, properly represented,
because we are determined that Cal
casieu shall receive the attention she
deserves. II 10 no expense to drop Us
suggestive line or word-it will all
be profit to you.
We want to know also how many
schools and churches we have in the
parish. We want an estimate Of the
number of cattle, horses, sheep, goats,
hogs and poultry, how many acres Of
land in cultivation. with the average
yield, ETC., in the different localities.
Give us health statistics, and your
crimipal record. Nov i the time to
put such things in print for the Expo
sitiop visitors to read. We don't be
heve ours are such as Of which we
should be ashamed. The contrary,
We believe ours will compare favor
ably. with any other section IN the
State. So We will wait patiently to
hear from the people, because We be-
lieye their statements will have more
weight than q simple newspaper state
mept. Our friends in Cameron viii
please take notice that we mean that
they also let us know what they have. |
