medical care had restored him to a con-

1t appears that on the outward trip to

To Sugar and Rice Planters.

Mr.. }. Henry Putnam is the chairman
of the Statistical Committee of the Su-
gar and Rice Planters Union. This
Union was formed by a convention held
in New Iberia on June 7tb, 1893. Mr..
Putnam is sending blank reports to all
planters in the State, that they may be
filled out and returned to him. He gives
the following plan:
Each parish is to compile its individ-
ual reports into a parish report, the sew
eral parish repoT1 are to be compiled
by the statistical committee into a state
report. The state report will contain,
as far as they can be obtained, state
ments from manufacturers of sugar and
rice machinery, dealers in coal, live
stock, western produce, transportation
companies, etc, showing the extent of
business done by each of the sugar and
rice districts of Louisiana. Such a re-
port, we think, can not fail in having a
most important effect and influence up-
on any proposed National legislation.D
We believe that the statistics to be
secured will be of incalculable benefit
to members of Congress in meeting at,
tacks made on sugar and rice. They
Will then have strong reasons for induc-
ing western Congressman to assist them.
Every sugar and rice planter should
promptly send Mr.. Putnam the informa-
ton wanted. If they do not receive
blanks from him they should write to
him at once. His address is AbbeVille,
La.

BELLEVUE, July 9Th, 1898.
To His Excellency M. j. Foster, Governor State
of louisiana:
At the regular Parish Meeting held at Belle,
vue Hall July 9th, 1893, we, the members of the
Parish Union of st. Landry, claiming
to be honorable citizens and uphOlders of good
government, feel that we have the right when
aggrieved to petitiqA.
Whereas, Your ENellency has seen fit to re-
move two of our Alliance members from the
Police jury of our parish without stated cause,
and there being no known charges and specifi-
cations, against said members; we therefore
deem it a duty that we owe to ourselves as an
organization and to these members of our Order
as individuals (they having been subjected to
harsh criticism), to most respectfully ask you
to do us the honor and justice to state cause for
said removal.
We make this request in behalf of the honor
and integrity of our Order, feeling that we are
doing ourselves an injustice to retain within our
organization men who are not fit to hold posi-
tons by appointment under Your Excellency.
