Colman's Other Name is Eli.

Out in Cove county, Kansas, it became
noised abroad that Commissioner Colman
was distributing seeds by the Wholesale,
and one gentleman applied to him for q
carload. Report says that "Mr. Colman
treated the suggestion very kindly. He
answered that he could not spare so many
seeds for one, but that he would send as
many as possible. They are arriving in
appreciable quantities" This splendid
recognition of western farm interests is no
doubt due to Uncle Sans having a west
ern man for captain of his seed dispen-
sary. The Indicator wanted to see Gov.
Click appointed to the position, but it
plainly sees now that no such iberality
could be expected from him as is being
shown by his successful competitor. II
it is a question of seeds, count us for
G olman.l[K. c. Lite Stock Indicator.
If the Indicator had just been thought
full enough to tell the public that it
caught in the World the food for all
this display of love, the echoes in the val
legs and over the hills would be averaged
up very nicely, indeed.

bered by the members of our Lodge, was

successful attempt to impose upon our
charity, is at his old tricks again, and has
beaten back to his old haunts. Prof.
Willie was at Atchafalaya, in St. Landry,
last month. When here in 1878, George
S. Benson, now of Colorado, was our w.

soon caught on to the gentleman's racket
and exposed him. Not great while after
Mr.. Benson removed to Colorado and
there met Prof. Willie and had the pleas

has dofect in one eye. Sometimes hi

is an expect at billiard playing. Exchan

COURTS OF APPEAL.

We have in the State of Louisiana SIX
Courts of Appeal, composed OF two Judges
each and their annual salaries aggregate
s48. 900. Outside of New Orleans there
are five Courts of Appeal, and great
deal of the time of the judges is consumed
to travelling from one courthouse TO an
other. Under the Constitution OF 1868,
all appeals in cases where the amount IN
DISPUTE exceeded the sum of $500, were
decided by the Supreme Court, which al
ways kept up with its work i'll the couh-
try parishes.
It now takes Supreme Court OF hve
Judges and five Courts of Appeal OF ten
Judges to try appeal cases in the country
Parishes. The additional appeals allowed
nv law are in cases where the amount III
dispute exceeds 500 and does not exceed
1900. which are counterbalanced by the
decrease in litigation since 1879. While
we believe that it is necessary that there
should be IN Appellate Court, not only to
relieve the Supreme Court, but to try
cases where the amount involved would
not Justify the expense oftrasnscript, prln-
ted briefs, etc., we think that outside OF
the city of New Orleans, one Court of Ap-
peals, consisting of three Judges, would
be sufficient to try all the cases that are
now appealable to the five Courts OF Ap-
neal. Instead of travelling from court,
house to courthouse, the court should SIT
at Monroe, Shreveport, Alexandria and
Opelousas twice each year,. S!for trial OF
cases on the original records from the Dis
trict Court. The salaries of the Judges
should be $500 each, a saving of $25,OOt
per annum as compared with the present
system. The jurisdiction of this Court Of
Appeals should be increased to $3OOO.-
The establishment Of such Court of APP
peals would enable the Supreme Court O
the State to dispose of all cases within it!
appellate jurisdiction at its session in New
Orleans, which might begin in October
and extend to June.
/ Such consummation would doubtless
eliminate from onr future reports "saddlt
