the planters are always short of

very irregular, while on the tram
way the planters are always sup
piled with ell the cars they want
early in the morning; and, unless
the planters can get the assurance
of the railroad company to give
them better service az to what
concerns the'moving of the cane,
they had better not increase their
crop too much, or it may prove to
them, q costly experiment. The
refneries have some reason too,
not to be anxious to contract for
cane too far from them.

Doing Up Sheriff Rees.

The Evangeline in its last issue
said that the Valley of the Teche
and the Messenger we're trying to
'do up" Sheriff Rees.
The Evangeline is somewhat be-
hind in its news, the Messenger
did try to do up Sheriff Rees when
he was candidate four years ago,
but we failed to do him up, he got
elected. But If the Sheriff is done
up, he has done that himself, the
Messenger has not done it. And
the proof that the Sheriff is done
up, if reports are correct, is that
he withdraws from the field to al
low chief deputy T. L. Broussard
to run for the Office.
The Messenger is not much con-
cerned about politics. and does
not care who will be the candidates,
we are not looking for any politi-
cal patronage, We publish our pa
per and run a printing Office as a
business enterprise, without the
least expectation from the politi'
clans of either faction.

A suit was filed in New Orleans
last week by Messrs. Fairchild &
Hobson, commission merchants,
against the Louisiana and Arkan-
sas and the Western Union Tele-
graph Companies for damages
caused by mistake in telegram.
On November 22nd, 1897, Robert
Worrell of St. Joseph telegraphed
to Fairchild 4 Hobson, his COM
mission merchants "Buy me ten
May corn" being an order to pur-
chase 10000 bushels of May corn.
When the telegram WAS delivered
10 Fairchild & Hobson it read
"Buy me ten May" and as this
message. according to trade regu-
lations meant to buy him 10000
bales of cotton deliverable in May,
they Immediately bought 10000
bales of May cotton. Worrell, of
course, would not hear to their
purchase, and Fairchild & Hobson
had to sell the 10000 bales of May
cotton and they thereby incurred
q loss of S252. 40: thew are now
suing the telegraph companies for
that amount. The mistake was
made in the Tallulah Office. The
amount involved is small, but the
principle is most important, and
