A Pennsylvania railroad officer has g
stock farm on the outskirts of Phila-

Clever Club a friend Of the railroadei
spoke of it, saying he runs it on q
business-like basis. Sometimes he
makes money out of 1t. Last year he
bought pig for s27, fed it forty bush
els of corn, at 81 u bushel, and Their
sold 1t for $3.50.
Il made $3.50 out of that pig he re-
marked to me the other day after the
animal was taken away.
But l protested, how about the
forty bushels of corn, at 81 bushel
that you fed him?'
"sOh commented the gentleman

thing on the corn"

any point of view. Sunday and Mon
day were unseasonably warm, but the
balance of the week was cool and fall.
like and it begins to look as though
summer has at last made up its mind
to seek other fields.
The work of harvesting the cane
crop will begin next Monday at most
Of the places in this section, and the
outlook is fattering for a successful
season. The cane is still somewhat
green, but couple of weeks of good,
cold weather will overcome this defect
and put the crop in magnificent condi-
ton. The tonnage is expected to be
exceptionally heavy and the yield OF
sugar will probably be likewise. A
scarcity of labor is generally reported.
Cutting was begun at Peytayin We'd
nesday and at Palo Alto Thursday.
AS soon as the railroad which is being
built to convey cane from the Lemann
Company's plantations on this side OF
the bayou to the Palo Alto refinery on
the other side is completed the work
of converting the crop into sugar will
be started.
On the Miles Company S plantations
across the river cutting was begun
Thursday afternoon and the big Hou-
mas Central refinery will inaugurate
the seasons campaign Monday morn
ing.
At ST. Emma the field work com
menced this morning and the wheels 10
the factory will begin to reyolve Mon
day.
The exodus from Donaldsonville OF
field hands and factory employees has
already commenced, and by the middle
of next week all of those who have Sc
cured positions for the coming season
will have reported for duty. BY the
same token, the number of planters
and agriculturists seen on our streets
every Saturday and Sunday during
the summer months will be considera-
bly, lessened while the work of grind
ing is going on.
Another fortnight or so will bring
to an end the harvesting of the cotton
crop, with the expectation that the
yield will be slightly in excess of last
year. Up to Sunday Leon Picard IS
Rescue gin, at Gonzales, had turned
out 900 bales, while Gonzales Bros.
Lena B. gin had reached the 700 mark.
In previous seasons these gins have
handled an average of 1880 bales each,
but this year they expect to take care
of about 1000.
A very gratifying yield of rice is
reported from the Hermitage planta-
ton, which was acquired several
months ago by Brou & Co. On this
place 1000 acres were planted in rice,
from which IA 900 sacks have already
been harvested, with probably 5000
sacks yet to be tI1reshed.

Put Out Of Business.

! The effect of the railing OF the State
Board Of Contest that the candidates
of the Williams Clarke organization
are alone entitled to go on the Official
ballot ander the title and emblem OF
| the Republican party. is to pvt the
Cohen-kuntz faction completely out 81
business as political entity. and there
/ is no room to question either the JUS
tice or legality Of the decision that
brought about this desirable consum-
nation. It would have been an abb
surdity and an outrage from every
point Of view to have given any share
Of official recognition to the factionists
who failed or refused to support the
Republican ticket in the last state cleo
tion and therefore contributed nothing
to the ten per centum vote upon which
the claim of the party to a place on
the ballot was solely founded.
That the followers of the discredited
and discounted combination recog-
nize the force and finality of the right
eons decision is indicated BY the fact
that the United States Land Office in
the New Orleans Customhonse is be-
coming rapidly transformed in appear
ance from political headquarters and
resort for idlers into the semblance of
an Office for the trans action of public
business. For months past political
plotting and maneuvering has been
Register w alter Cohen's main occu-
patton, while the duties Of his office
have been what the drummers call ia
side line,'' but he is. now very near to
the END Of his tether as a political
leader and the sooner he reaches il
the better.
Attorney Girault Farrar, who ably
represented the Cohen-Kuntz contest
ants at Baton Rouge, freely achnowl-
edged that the ruling of the Board of
Contest placed the Williams Clarke
organization in full and indispntable
control of the affairs of the Repub-
lican party in Louisiana, and this
conclusion must be apparent to every
sensible mind.
Cohen is making. a weak pretense of
recognition by the Republican Ia
tional committee because he has been
invited TO become one of the many
hundred speakers who will aid il the
work Of the closing weeks Of the cam
paign in the northern States but that
kind of recognition will have no bear
ing upon the party organization and
management in Louisiana, and cannot
Breathe thep breath of life into the de-
funet revolution airy movement of which
w alter Cohen was the arch conspira-
tor.
He may be able to s.make a show
ing" among the. colored voters of dis
tant northern states, where his charac-
ter and anteeedents are comparatively
unknown, and it will De just like him
to claim that his sergices have been
invaluable to the party, notWith-
standing the foregone conclusion that
the cofored vote of lie entire country
is practically solid for the Republican
ticket; but down here, where he is
known for what he is as we'll as what
he processes to be, he is a dead cock
il the political pit, and apt to stay.

Warm Contest in New Orleans,


One of the most spirited eolitical
contests now taking place ia the
United States and to be decided on
the 9Th of November is that between
the Home Rule and Regular factions
Of the Democratic party for control 81
the city of New Orleans, and while
both sides are INDUCING in the usual
amount Of ''brag and bluster'' in
eident to such struggles, tits apparent
to the disinterested observer that
neither is sure of d walk-over.
The Regulars have the advantage of
q long established and we'll organized
political machine, supported by all
the Gins" and literally oiled with Of
fetal patronage, while their opponents
are outside the breastworks with a
comparatively unorganized force of
voters and d meagee supply of the
sinews Of war that are supposed to
exercise such potent influence in po-
litical battles.
The insurgents are nothing daunted,
however. and seem to have great CON
tidence in the power of outraged
public sentiment, aroused by Gov.
Blanchard's unwarranted and despotic
course, to overcome the cohorts OF the
bosses and redeem the city from ring
rule.
The Home Rule mass meeting at
Liberty Place last Saturday night
was undoubtedly one of the largest
ever held in New Orleans, and the
etfor8 of the Regulars to diminish the
attendance by calling ward meetings
ID nearly all of the bailiWicks Of the
seventeen bosses distinctly failed OF
its purpose. There is no doubt that
large majority of the better elements
ct the city's population is opposed to
Blanchard and the bosses, but ii isn i
the rule, by any means-in fact, it's
rather the eption-that the better
elements are enabled to carry elections
in the Louisiana metropolis.
Personalities are being Injected into
the campaign 10 an unusual degree.
and it will be fortunate indeed if the
contestants without any serious breach
Of the public peace Or the sacrifice Of
any s'human life al limb.''
The nomination papers of the Home
Rule candidate were fled with the
secretary Of state on Monday by W.
p. Patterson, and the ticket ". be
printed on the official ballot under
lac smile OF the monument ID Liberty
Place, erected TO the memory of the
White Leaguers who fell in the FIGHT
WITH the MetropoIitan Police on The
i4sh of September, 1874.
Inc ballot will therefore be orna-
mented with three elnblems: the Demo
e y. !. .; rooster, the Republican elephant
and the Home Rule monument.
