come by a railroad for which pro-
vision has been made-and separated
many miles from any other industry,
one cannot help but be convinced
that II Is one Of the rarest and rich
est places on earth. Ordinarily, in
mining, people overestimate the size
Of the ore bodies and the value of
their contents, but In speaking of
this vicinity the custom is reversed.
Actual values, as determined By the
assayer's test, and actual distances
obtained by the strong arm Of la
Dor, are both above the credulity of
the ordinary mind. This place is an
unusual one, for either the mining
expert or those not at al well versed
In mining to examine. It conveys a
lesson that words win not impart.
1t is a place where the doubter can
not help being convinced. This is
not poetry, and it should be borne
IN mind that over a million dollars
Is now being expended In developing
this camp, while the prospects are
such that even this vast expenditure

through the eye, and the things seen
are so exaggerated that afterwards
one feels that he is being followed
by the phantasies of a dream in try

adequate description. the attention

Of Phoebe, New, where are situated

The People Again Rule.


The Democratic Central Execu-
tive committee of Louisiana has
reflected the wish of the people
and ordered primaries for the Sc
lection of state officers, including
a United States senator to succeed
Murphy j. Foster.
The action of the committee was
expected. Twenty-four hours in
advance of its meeting, a poll of
its members disclosed the fact that
the primary idea would prevail.
The minority, and it was an inau-
entail one, accepted the situation.
allowed no argument to arise and
made the matter unanimous. And
thus, a new declaration of the peo-
Piles independence is proclaimed.
Some of the politicians profess
considerable fear of the result and
evince apprehension of q split in
the ranks. We have none. The
primary idea is not a new one; it
works splendidly for parochial
offices, and will be as efficacious
for State Offices. The convention
plan is worked threadbare and the
people generally have lost interest
in state politics. 80 true is this
that it is common saying here
that the election of q constable
creates more excitment than that
of govener; and why? The voter
has an opportunity to select bis
constable, while his choice for gov.
enor was thrust on him as q card
sharp slips the pssteboard from
the bottom.
Now the man who aspires fol
state position must come before
the individual voter and presen
his claim. Interest in elections
will revive and the men who wiz
will be the selection of the demo
cratic party and not that of a hal
dozen bosses.

In an interview with the Picay-
une, Mr.. o. W. Haywood had
the following to say:
"Some of the large wells in the
Jennings field produce about 1900
barrels dav. Others range from
200 to l 100 barrels adsy. We are
getting out oilin the Anse-la- Butte
field by compressed air. We also
used compressed air in the Jen-
nings field for a while, but we
abandoned it because salt water
was brought up. We get about
seventy-fve barrels a day from the
Anse-la-Butte wells. We have two
wells there and have just begun
another. 1 sent samples of oil from
this field to three different refin-
cries and all pronounced it . very
superior grade of oil and placed
its value at from $3.50 to 81 . bar
rel, and the chemists said the
samples we're the finest specimens
of oil they had ever analysed.
"We are using Anse-la-B Butte oil
in the crude form for lubricatinp
our engines and other machinery
in the Jennings field by simply
removing the grit 1t makes an ex-
cellent lubricating oil and the en-
gineers say that it is every bit as
good as lubricaing oil for which
we have been paying 40 cents gal
Ion.
Louisiana is still to do a great
deal in oil. The development of
the States mineral resources has
Just begun. The future of the oil
industry in Louisiana could hard
ly be brighter"

All the schools in town and
in the parish were opened Mon
day, with, we believe, every school
showing an increased attendance.
The schools of the Convent of
Mercy made a very fine showing
OIL the opening day, and the num-
Der of boarders at the Convent
has increased in very satisfacto-
nv manner. The Sisters are de-
termined to make their schools the

their efforts will be crowned with
success.

Governor Heard has given this
Parish a new District Attorney, in
the person of Mr.. Edwin s. Brous-
sard, of the law firm of Broussard,
Dulany & Broussard, of this city.
The appointment is for the unex-
pired term caused by the resigna-
ton of A. N. Muller. Mr.. Brous-
sard brings to the Office youth,
energy and reasonable amount OF
experience, having been a practi-
cling attorney for some years, his
known ability, integrity and in
domitable will constitutes an ideal
District Attorney. His large cir
Gle of friends and relatives, will
give him the backing and endorse
ment that must give additional
force to all his acts, while the
knowledge of such support must
make him fearless and jealous in
the discharge of his duty. We
heartily commend the Governors
action, and congratulate the young
officer, and the people whom be
will serve. N. l. Enterprise.
