The opposition, however, will

COL. A. W. cRANDELL.


The Baton Rouge Advocate, now
living under the immediate drippings
of the States official sanctuary, in
it's issue of Friday, March the oath,
makes a violent and coarse attack
upon the gentleman and straightout
Democrat, whose name we have
placed at the head of this brief men,
ton.
We dislike TO notice such cometic
gyrations in journalism, but having
known Mr.. Crandell for over three
decades of years as faithful and
hard worker in the ranks OF Louis
iana's Democracy, we cannot but ex-
press our regret in finding such un-
called for personalisms in the Advo-
cate. 1t is very easy to deal in de-
rogatory assertions in print, but they
invariably act as boomerangs when
unsupported by unquestlonable proof
of their truth.
We have never known, nor ever
heard of any blot or stain on the
moral status of Col. Crandell during
the many years we have been ac-
qualnted with him. He has stood
unquestioned upon the same plane
with our most prominent men-the
intimate friend for years of the re-
nowned Randell l.. Gibson, the
friend of Senator Ed. d. White, and
the peer of the brightest and best
among the Democratic leaders Of our
State. But the Advocate thinks
differently, and PROTESTS agains,
Mr.. Crandell being made Postmaster
at New Orleans, indulging in any
number of abusive epithets. which
compels us to repeat an inquiry We
made sometime ago:

THIS YEARS COTTON CROP.

ACTIVE preparations are no" Soin
on in East Carroll for another
cotton crop, whether it will be a
paying one or not rests with the
planters themselves. Conventions
have been held in Memphis, New Or
leans and many other places within
the past month with view TO reduce
ing the acreage in cotton to a snffi-
cient extent to keep the supply with
IN the natural demand for the worlds
consumption. AL the people who
participated in the proceedings at
these gatherings seemed to have been
fully in accord with the idea OF re-
ducing the acreage, and many elo-
quent speeches we're made with a
view to that end; but whether the
result will pan out as agreed upon
is a question the future only will
solve.
1t is but natural to assume that no
planter would be Wiling to grow
cotton at a non-remunerative price.
Such a course would mean bankrupt
CIV and ruin; but however willing
planters may be to keep the acreage
within the proper limits, how is that
acreage to be controlled? What
kind of obligations could be made
binding upon the various persons en-
gagged in cotton growing? This is
the puzzle. The colored race now,
az land owners and land renters
enter largely under the present order
of things into this question, especial
" in the favored region and LATITUDE
where the longer staple CREWS sue
