The annual meeting of this So

to be of exceptional interest. A
large amount Of the local agricul

prominent speakers from various
parts Of the state have consented to
be present and to deliver addresses.
1t is understood that Governor Eos
ter will be present and deliver an

made with the Southern Pacific and
Texas & Pacific railroads to trans
port persons going 10 the meeting
at 2 cents per mile for the round

three cents per mile going1 and one

An enormous amount Of good has
been done in Louisiana dnringf the
last ten years by u agricultural
organizations, chief among which is
the State Agricultural society.
Apart from the enormous amount OF
agricultural information that can be
gained by attending these meet
ings, it is important that every one
interested in Louisiana agriculture.

his shoulder to the wheel and make
these meetings a grand success. The

a Hawkeyed gentleman:from .Madi-

Gov. Foster is only human like

Dnke Thompson, Of Gloucester, will in
stitute proceedings against the manage
ment OF The Trenton fair for allowing all
sorts of gambling devices, especially the
red and black, to be operated openly and
in defiance of law at the annual fair last

same lesson in morality that caused Glou.
cesier to be turned down.
We trust the Duke will do this, as
there does not appear to be any one in
Trenton who has moral back bone enough
to bring the Inter State Fair officers to nc
CONT. The licensing Of gambling wheels
on the fair grounds is disgrace to the
