Louisiana,s Two Good Crops.

Two crops have paid well in Louisi-
ana this year. While cotton and sugar
fell in price far below what they ever
were before, and in many instances prob
ably below the cost of production, corn
and rice sold we'll at a good advance
over the previous year, returning a
large profit to those who planted them.
The reason for the improvement in
corn is quite obvious. The failure of the
western crop produced a scarcity
throughout the country and sent prices
up everywhere, even in the south, where
the crop was big one. Thus the Loui-
siana farmers had a double piece Of luck
which is not often given them-a big
crop at good figures.
In rice it was somewhat different
The crop was short. This com bined with
the Chinese-Japanese war, which prac-
tically stopped the importation of for
eign rice from across the Pacific, whence
most of it comes, tend to stiffen prices

ENJOINs THE GOVERNOR.

Warden Chase Moves in the District
Court in His Own Defense.
At 4 o'clock this afternoon injunction
proceedings will be commenced in the
district court by Warden Seth W. Chase
against Governor Morrill,, Lieutenant
Governor Troutman and Speaker Lob

committee to investigate his man agement

6 Waters and Frank Herald The tenn
porary restraining order will be granted
and the matter for a permanent iniunc-
ton will be set for a date in the near
future. 1t is probable that Attorney
General Dawes will represent the state
officers in the case.
Warden Chase asks for the injunction
on the ground that the law giving the gov
ernor and the heads of the two branches
of the legislature authority to appoint
investigating committees is illegal. The
alleged flaw is found in the title. The
law is entitled, IAN act appointing in
vestigating committees" The cons titu-
ton declares that the title of an act must
be clear index to its contents,
and the plaintiffs in this suit
maintain that the act does not '-appoint
an investigating committee" but
should be entitled, Gan act comforting
the power to appoint Investigating com
mittees on certain state officers" 1t is a

Warden Chase does not want his record
as warden of the Kansas penitentiary
scrutinized too closely. 1t was the inten-
ton of the Kansas state officers named
in the injunction to get together this
afternoon and appoint the investigating
committee. If they did it prior to D.
u. today they would not be guilty Of
contempt of court, but it is not probable
that they will take advantage of the few
hours in their favor to prevent settle
ment of the legal points in controversy.

Mayor Harrison Tells Why He Has De-
cided to Sign the Ordinance.
Mayor Harrison has decided to sign
the new dam ordinance.
He said today: Il have withheld sign
ing the ordinance in order to give all
parties full and fair hearing and ascer-
tain as far as possible what the wishes of
the people of the city are concerning it.
II have endeavored to be wholly i'm
partial in this matter. I do not intend to
do anything which would tend in
the least to embarrass the lower
company. The upper dam ought
to be benefit instead of
an injury to the lower dam as it would
: act as an additional reservoir and furnish
greater supply of water to the lower
dam. The general sentiment of the peo-
pie seems to De in favor of the new ordi-
nance. This ordinance was fully dis
cussed and passed by strong vote of the
council eight for and two against and
this desire of the council ought to have
great weight in a matter of this impor-
lance"

what conan Doyle owes to Poe.

Of Poe's genius as writer of short
stories Dr. Conan Doyle cannot say
enough. He regards him as pre-emi
nently the master of this literary form
and as the inventor of the detective
stories to which the Sherlock Holmes"
series makes the most definite and ex-
tended English contribution. The i'm
aginative quality, the intellectual skill,
the keen adoption of means to ends. the
subtlety of insight, the management of
dramatic effects-upon all these quail
ties DR.. Doyle delights to dwell by way
of emphasizing his own Indebtedness to
Poe and his recognition of Poe's great
abilities. Home Journal.
