Ihs Chicago Board of Trade Loses It's
Quotation Suit,

CHICAGO. ILL.,, July 5.-The Board of
Trade received pre- ty hard rap this
morning by the decision of
Judges Horton, Tuley and Col
Inns, sitting en- banc, on the
motion of the boards attorney to dis
solve the preliminary injunction tc pre-
vent the board from Withholding it's
quotations from the bucket shops. The
judges in their decision DENY the mo-
ton to dissolve the Injunction on
the ground that the market quotations
are OF such importance to the public
that they should be considered public
property, and that if this injunction
were dissolved the tendency would be
TO create monopoly OF the big board.

VOLUME XXI. NO. q


With the present number the EcHo
enters Its 21st year. Its score years
of life have been made up of much
the same share Of clouds and sunshine,
Of bright and dark days as have been
the general experiences Of the com.
munity, IN the midst Of whom il has
steadily and earnestly worked and
grown. Its record is good part of
the history of Lake Charles and
Southwest Louisiana, and as 1t has
received and still receives gratifying
evidence of appreciation and good will,
ii would be graceless and uugrateful
tocomplain if at times it's road has
seemed a little rough. In the pros
perity of its surroundings the Echo
has prospered. When a wave of ad-
sVersity came it struggled along as its
friends and neighbors had to struggle.
Ithas borne witness to the multiplied
Vicissitudes, the transformations be-
tween nature and mans handiwork,
the increasing scope and business
ramitications, the vast developments
and improvements which have taken
place within its field of labor, while it
has earnestly striven to work out the
better part.
AS has been said, the Echo has re-
ceived its fair reward, Its friends, and
there has been no lack of them, have
stood by it Loyalty and faithfully, in
sunshine and shadow, with encouraging
words and generous patronage, and as
it shall still strive in the future as in
the past to be clean and worthy, a
reasonable hope is entertained that the
bands will tighten and strengthen
rather than slacken or weaken.

IHE parade Of the fire department
IN New Orleans on SUNDAY last. March
3, anticipating by one day the actual
anniversary, Monday, March 4 seems
to have been DecessiLated in order TO
avoid confusion with the reception
ceremonies Of the Carnival King Rex.
The Sunday parade was rather sen-
ousIy criticized and an earnest protest
issued against it by the Protestant
ministers of the city, in which the
fire department was charged with
desecrating the Sabbath. At meet.
ing, Sunday night, Of the officers of
the department, President Marks said
in explanation:
"He thought it was known to
the members Of the clergy that
the decision was not made at the
original instance Of the department,
but at the request of the Carnival de
partment. The Carnival court sand
the parade, If it took place on Mon
day, would interfere With the recep-
ton of the king They therefore
specially requested the department 10
make the change, and compImented
it Oh It's public spirit. That request
very particularly asked that the change
be made from Monday 10 Sunday.
When the protest of the ministers
was published the speaker requested
some acquaintance connected with
the Rex procession to bring before the
council of seven the justice of the
Carnival COMMISSIONING responsibility
for the change"
The Carnival Court had failed to do
this in the public manner desired, and
as the real personnel of the court is
shrouded in mystery the controversy
assumes the shape of confusion worse
COMPOUNDED.
1t may be regarded As an unfortu.
nate coincidence that the closing of
the carnival season this year and the
reception day Of Rex fell upon that Of
the tiremenS' anniversary, but the
claim of the firemen should not have
been waived under the circumstances,
involving as it did, great interference
with religious observance and shock.
ing to the prophecies of the day in
the minds of church people. The
reception Of Rex on the day pre-.
eeding bis grand pageant is Of recent
introduction and presents no particu.
larly striking features Or elaborate
display. The day was the fifty-fourth
anniversary of thefre department, and
BY all rules of right the department
should have taken it's proper day
even it involved throwing the re.
ception Of Rex into the night. The
event threatens unpleasant results Il

with more magnaHimrty than the de-
IpaFtment charges them with display.

The EoHo has repeatedly called at
teution to the advantages which would
attend the organization of an Immi-
grafton Aid Society for the purpose
of disseminating information concern
ing Caleasieu and inducing immigrants
tofind homes onEthe shores of our pic
turesque rivers and lakes. Nothing
would be more effective at so little
cost Of time or money in developing
our beautiful and productive parish
and increasing individual prosperity.
AT the session last week in New Or
leans of the State Immigration Asso-
citation of Louisiana, President Moor
man, in his official report, with many
other valuable suggestions made the
following:
would reCommed the adoption of
the plan proposed by me at The CON
vention Of March 9th, 1888, to organ
ize sub.immigration associations in
every parish in the State, so as to
keep up interest IN the parishes, and
to cooperate with its association.
The organization of the State asso-
citation provides for the usual officers
an executive committee and one direc-
tor for each parish, to be appointed
by the Police Jury or by the president
of the association should the jury fail
to act. The newspapers, without
exception, compliment in the highest
terms the effective work of the asso-
citation. The Ptcayune, in this con.
nection, uses this language
Although 1t has been but short
time in existence it has already &C
complished good work 1t has col
lected funds from private parties and
secured contributions from the Police
Jurles of number of parishes, and
with the money so acquired it has es-
tablished a central Office for gathering
and sending abroad information that
Is valuable to intending home-seelers
and calculated to attract them to this
State. Under Its auspices several
State conventions have been held to
arouse and interest the people in the
subject of immigration and to secure
IN the several parishes of the State
IocaI organizations working in harmony
with the association itself in this be
half.
The TtmesDemocrat, in an editorial
Of the same character, supplements
this just praise:
1t has done mole and accomplished
far more than We expected of it. 1t
has framed an intelligent immigration
policy; it has held several large and
successful conventions; it has brought
large number Of immigrants to the
Stale. Having done so well within
the first year Of its establishment they
hope for the best results from it for
the future.
Again the Echo earnestly urges the
formation of a parish adjunct to this
most important work.

The greatly superior results in
quality and quantity procured by the
diffusion process in the treatment of
sugar cane seems destined TO create,
If not revolution in the culture of
the staple, certainly an immense in
crease in its production. In localities
not only in Louisiana and Texas, but
IN Cnba and other sugar cane lands,
where the crops are sufficient in
reasonably limited area to Justify SO
great an outlay, central sugar houses
are being established, and these are
generally of capacity to handle, as
yariousIy estimated, 10000 to $4,000
tons of cane during the season, this
representing the product of between
1900 and 5000 acres, the yield per
acre being twelve Or more tons as an
average. 1t may be said that cane
being worth $3.50 to $500 per ton
delivered at the sugar house, the
smallest planters are assured Of good
paying crops. AT Jennings some of
the leading citizens are directing
vigorous efforts to promote more
generally the culture Of cane in Calca.
sieu, and for the introduction of a
diffusion mill, thus atfording facilities
tosuch small planters for the favor.

EcHo takes pleasure in commenting
