JOHN. W. COOKE FOR THE
NAVAL OFFICE. -

The New Orleans City Item OF
Thursday last In lengthy article on
Republican politics in Louisiana ana
the fight between the "regulars" aud
Lily Whites for supremacy, has the
following to say of John W Cooke OF
East Carroll, well known and pop
ular colored man.
"Presldent Roosevelt is de-
termined TO appoint colored man TO
the naval office, Holland having posi-
lively declined TO take the job even
if offered. the Lily Whites will prob
ably nominate John Cooke of East
Carroll parish. Cooke is as black as
the ace Of spades, but takes pride in
declaring himself a Lily White, aud he
never sees the point of the joke. In
his parish Cooke is accounted man OF
substance and carries the respect OF
both races. 1t is not quite clear how
The Williams people are going to get
over the Wood faux pas, but the re-
port goes that Cooke will be placed in
nomination as soon as the Lily Whites
think it Is time, and il is stated In tbs
connection that already representa-
lions have been made TO Chairman
Williams aud National Committeeman
| Clarke looking that way"
There is not man in the parish
Democrat or Republican-wbo would
not like to see Cooke secure this office.
1t President Roosevelt 10 going TO APP
point colOred man 10 the Naval
office, which it lie said he will do. be
could mot appoint a more worthy
negro than Cooke. He has been q
resident of Providence for many years,
running grocery store, and has
always conducted himself well and IL
respected by every person In our par
isb. He has a well balanced head on
bis shoulders, with plenty of brains,
and has always been conservative
tman. He was mail clerk on The river
for several years, and resigned TO go
in to business here, which he has con
Quoted since then. He was appointed
on the Board of Trustees of'be South
ern University of New Orleans, in
1891, by Governor Nichols, aud has
received the appointment every four
years since then. He has always stood
4 well with his party, having been del
gate or alternate to every National
Convention since 1874, aud we believe
was delegate to the Philadelphia
convention that, nominated Mckinley
aud Roosevelt, and was on the com'
mittee that notified the Vice Presi-
dent of his nomination.
This is quite flattering notice of
negro, but John w. Cooke is entitled
TO every word said, and the Banner
Democrat would like 10 see such a
capable man receive the appointment
Ii he wished to, be could secure the
endorsement of every mau in the par
ish as 10 bis honesty and standing.

In the Mississippi Senate the other
day Governor LONGING was ripped
up the back in pretty lively fash
ION by one of the Senators. 1t was
in the penitentiary farm scandal, and
it was proved that the Governor had
bought car load or so of State corn
at the low price of fifty cents
bushel, when it could not be bought
for less than seventy cents at the
time. The Governor of course was
on the "inside," aud got what be
wanted. He has been roughly criti-
cised on the floor of, the Senate, for
his connection in the matter.

The news has been sent ont from
New Orleans that "citizens OF Louis
lana whose insurance has expired or
whose risks have not been rerated
within the past twelve months will
have the privilege of paying an adj
vance of % per cent over the rates
heretofore charged by the insurance
companies. In the other States this
advance applies only to frame store
buildings, stocks of merchandise aud
other especially hazardous risks, but
in Louisiana there isa law which pro-
hibits determinations, and, the CON-
panles chartered in this State have
made a horizontal increase of 20 per
cent. There is also a law on sthe
statute books of this State which pro-
hibits any con certed action among
the insurance companies, and while
no such action has been taken, the
effect is the same, as the companies
have put the advance into effect"

seremon took place on March 15, and
 the presentation address was made by
 Captain A. Y. Mahan. He told the ca-
 dets that the essential character of the good soldier and that of the good Chris tian were very closely allied; that war realizes in an extreme form the con-
 duct of all life, and that even in peace the decisive military virtues are essen tially the principal Christian virtues. He bade them remember "that whatev- CT hope may lie in arbitration, of min- imizing the recurrence of the material sufferings attending upon war always, as Sherman said, the strong arm and the military faithfulness of the soldier underlie all the blessings of peace"
 It is easy to detest war, but it is not easy to see how any country Is going to get along at present without profession al soldiers. As long as we have got to have them, the Bible reading sort Is a good kind to have. Some pretty bad tasks are set for our soldiers just now, and it makes great difference in what spirit they are executed. General Hughes told a senate committee the other day that when he went into &C., tion against the Filipinos he felt as if he was fighting children and that he never made an attack that he did not regret 1t. Certainly the war in the Philippines will last no longer than General Hughes and soldiers of his spe- cies can help; but, for that matter, all our soldiers seem to be pretty much of one mind in the earnestness of their de- sire to have fighting cease in the Phil ippines -Harper's Weekly.

tance made Duvall all the more anxious.
 They met in room at the hotel and
 Duyal handed Johns $1,500. and King
 made a deposit with the stakeholder,
 said to be $1 300. So sure was DuvalI of
 winning that he made another bet of
 $2OO, putting the money in Haughn's
 hands. Everything was conducted &C.,
 cording to the rules of foot racing,
 Duvall paid a great deal of attention
 to Ballard, oiling his joints to make him
 supple, and doing everything needed to
 make him winner. At this race
 Haughn was the starter, and at the fir-
 ing of the pistol Ballard and Stillson
 started. Stillson held back, and when
 he saw he would have to do something
 or win the race, he dropped behind Bal
 lard and deliberately pushed him across
 the goal line This was so plain that Duvall yelled and ordered Johns and
 Haughn not to turn over the money
 but they declared that Ballard had won the race, and handed Duva1l's S1 700 to King. The Illinois man protested but instantly he was surrounded by a gang of toughs and he backed out of the crowd to save himself from injury. Du- wall, however, did not propose to give up so easily, and he employed Edgar OHair and George F. O'Byrne to re- cover his money
 At MT. O'Hair's demand, the syndi cate laughed, and even offered to bet that he would not recover a cent. Bal lard, who was really an innocent par ticipant in the swindle, was driven out of J1yt nn cxypdtpnto JJo T have a cent of money, and had to beat his way home on freight trains when not trampine it. MT. O'Hair filed the ] civl suit, and when it was called for | trial the defendants asked a change of 1 venue from the county. While this de- 1 mand was pending, Mir O'Hair slipped | over to his office and filed an affidavit against Johns, King. Haughn and Still 1 son, charging them with "bunco- steer ing" Judge Swift issued bench war rants and King, Hauehn and Johns were arrested. Stillson heard of the warrant and got away, but the sheriff is still looking for him. The three mem bers of the syndicate still saw the fun 1 ny side of the affair. and were offering large odds that they would not be con Vlcted. when a1Ier d great deal Of trouble, a jury was secured, the prose- ,ution asked that the jury be kept to- gether until it had returned verdict, and MT. OHair, in his statement inti- mated broadly that there were jury fix srs in this place and an effort would be made to tamper with the jury The 'ourt made the asked-for order and for nore than six day s the jury was in
