Two years ago two cattle men, Glib
son and Frazer, were murdered in
Chautauqua county. Wednesdays
X. c. Journal had the news that two
men had at last been arrested on evil
dence that pointed strongly to them
as guilty of the crime. The Journals
dispatch also strongly intimated that
the evidence might convict all the
members of an Alliance lodge of con-
spiracy to commit the murders. The
REGISTER sincerely hopes that this
part of the Journals story may prove
to be not true. 1t is an awful thing
to have it even suggested that such a
crime could be laid at the door of an
organization composed exclusively of
the farmers of Kansas, and the REG
IsTER will not believe it until it is
proven in the courts.

Editor Ranger.-Here's a subIec.
for the consideration Of capitalists
and the people Of Acadia and ada
cent parishes.
Would dummy lines i~ntersecting
S. P. R. e. benefit the people
| claim that such a line extending
from the northwest part Of Acadia
to Abbeville via Crowley, would
greatly benefit the people on the line
and profit the shareholders.
PROGRESS.
There is no question that such a
line would be of unreasonable bene-
fit in developing that section Of our
parish. A line from Church Point
via Rayne to Abbeville would tap q
richer and more thickly populated
section and would probably pay bet
ter. This is a question for discus
sion and the columns Of the Ranger
are open to its patrons who may de-
sire to do so.-Ranger.

quenters Of the West End with his
superb playing, Mr.. Veazey is not
only master of his instrument and
capable OF giving all the 1ourishes
on it which captivate the average
crowd, bnt he gives to his notes a
tenderness and depth of expression
which denote the love Of music and
sentiment that characterize the great
musician. Mr.. Veazey has made
marked progress since he last ap.
peared on the stand and the mastery
he has attained of his instrument
ought to awaken the legitimate
pride oar people in the distinction
that this son of Louisiana is destined
to gain at no very distant day. Mr..
Veazey is a Creole of the parish of
st. Martin, the land that L~ongfellow
poetized in his Evangeline. It is a
land of song, poetry and music and it
is no wonder that il should give to
the musical world an artist such as
is Mr.. Veazey. The Creole cornet.

.Budge Albert VOORHEES,.

The Louisiana Review pays the
following eloquent tribute to that
distinguished jurist who is well
known here, having at INT time
been Judge of this district -
Judge Albert VOORHEES, who re.
Gently retired from the bench of the
civil district court Of New Orleans,
is one Of the most distinguished and
prominent citizens of our State
where be has passed q long, busy
and useful life. Judge VOORHEES, be-
gan the practice of law as soon
as he reached his majority aud
at the age of % he occupied the re-
|sponsible position of District Judge
of the Attakapas district. He gave
such eminent satisfaction to his con-
stituents that he was re elected to
serve a second term. In 1859, when
Judge VOORHEES, was but 80 years of
age, he was called to fill the chair OF
associate justice of the Supreme
Court of Louisiana, and was we be-
lieve, the youngest judge who ever
sat upon the bench in this State.
Judge VOORHEES, occupied this dis
tinguished position for four years
prior to the late war and also for the
four years during which the war
lasted. In 1866 Judge VOORHEES,
was elected lieutenant governor;
from 1872 to 1875 he served as
State Senator and from 1878 to 1879
as representative in the State legisla-
ture. During this period the Judge
was also chairman of the Democratic
State Central Committee. In 1887
Judge VOORHEES, received the APP
pointment Of Judge Of the civil Dis
trict Court Of New Orleans and be
brought to the discharge of his du-
ties the great ability and fine in
tegrity that ever characterized his
his career. In spite of the exacting
demands of his professional and pub.
lie life Judge VOORHEES, found time
to devote to a profound study Of the
law, which resulted in the production
several excellent works, that are
standard.
The Judge is the author Of "she
Criminal Jurisprudence of Louis
lana" a Revised Civil Code, a Re
yised Code Of Practice and an An
notated edition Of the Revised Stat
utes."
