The execution of Prendergast, the
assassin, will be approved in every
law-abiding community. He was
given the benefit of every doubt and
convicted after fair and impartial
trial. His crime deserved speedy
punishment, but through technical
tiles of the law his attorneys were
able to stay the hand of justice for
nearly year. To have spared his
life on the plea of insanity would
have been to encourage other cranks
to commit like crimes and attempt
to escape punishment on the same
plea. In the execution of this as.
sassin the law has been vindicated

In 1855 the great earthquake at
L:sboo, Portugal, created sea wave,
which was felt most disastrously on
al neighboring coasts, and in the
harbors of Cadiz and Malaga, Spain,
it rose to height of fifty feet. In
1868 tidal wave from an easthquake
drove all the shipping in the harbor
of Callao, Peru, high upon the shore.
In 1877 another tidal wave, caused
by an earthquake far out in the Paci-
fic Ocean, drove a wave upon the
coasts of Peru and Chill, destroying
many cities and much shipping,
which was cast far up on the land.

Referring to the acquittaI of Bal

Referring to the acquittal of Bar
nett, the Shreveport Progress says:
"We can't see how Bossier, in view
of such carrying on, can reasonably
expect immigration to seek it's bor-
ders." If immigration is kept away
from Bossier parish because twelve
hard working men, good and true
white citizens-eleven farmers, we
believe, and one carpenter, including
the President of the Farmers Parish
Union--acting under their solemn
oaths, after hearing all the evidence
and argument offered, think it their
duty to acquit prisoner charged
with murder, then let immigration
stay away. Bossier will stand the
sacrifice, and shed no tears. The
citizens of Bossier will do what they
think is right, regardless of immi-
grafton or harsh and gratuitous crit
icism, and will allow others the same
privilege.

From the prosperity of the farmers

If you are going to praise a friend
or brother, do it without an If or a

AS several gentlemen remarked,
facetiously, to-day: "You can kill
a man in Caddo and go to Bossier
for clearance."-Caucasian, 11th.
We would advise those facetious
gentlemen to try their own locality
first, in such an event, and save
themselves the trouble and expense
of transportation to this parish.
Men have been killed-not to use a
harsher term-in Caddo parish, and
their slayers have secured clear
ance aoithout a change of venue.

The average human being needs in

THE cholera has made an early start
this year. 1t is epidemic at Constanti-

onstrated that the pest can be kept out of
this country, and it will probably be
called on this year to do it again. 1t is a
great pity, however. that the national
health officers have not the powers it was
originally intended they should exercise.
State jealousy has succeeded in Gripping
