DOUBLE-DlSTILLED GALL!

The Lafayette Advertiser says
that the Opelousas Compress peo-
pie have filed a petition before the
Railroad Commission asking that
an order be issued prohibiting the
railroads from hauling cotton to be
compressed past a compress. Ii
that is so it is nothing more nor
less than an attempt to create Il
trust for the benefit of congresses
and at the expense of the cotton
planters, as it would place the cot
ton ra!sers AT the tender mercieS
of the compres SIS, by denying them
the right of compre*sing their cot
ton wherever they consider most
advantageous.
We learn that Il counter petition
is being circulated and uumerously
signed against This wonld be mo-
nopoly, though it is hardly likely
that the Railroad Commission
would consider the OpelonSps
scheme seriously, as it is so pal
pably IL violation of personal rights.
We don't need any more trusts, and
could very we'll dispense with sew
eral schemes Of that kind already
established. Squelch it.-Opelousas

lie Rives, the novelist, suit has beef
begun in the United States circuit
court i'll New York city to recover
$263, 523 from Thomas T. Sherman,
whose appointment as committee
in charge of his person and estate by
the supreme court Mr.. Chanler alleges
to have been Illegal, and therefore
null and void. Mr.. Chanler says that
shortly before March 10, 1897, he was
lured by false statements from his
home in Virginia to hotel in New
York, to give support to ostensible
and colorado jurisdiction, that the
court falsely and fraudulently
might be enabled to imprison him.

FIGURE 1T OUT.

The Crowley Signal of Acadia
Parish, one of the foremost paper!
in the State, striving to better the
local condition of the farmer makes
the following remarks:
Figure it out for yourself. Kan.
sas corn is worth, laid down al
Crowley, $25 per ton. By the
time you have hauled ii home it has
cost you at least $2S per ton.
At 81 bag rough rice can be
ground into feed, including the cost
of grinding, for $2S per ton.
At $3.50 bag rough rice can be
ground into feed, cost of grinding
included, for $2l a ton.
At $1.O0 bag rough rice can be
ground into feed, cost Of grinding
included, for $14 a ton
Ask any farmer who has tried it
aud he will tell yon that there
is more feeding value in ton Of
ground red rice than there is in q
ton of corn.
Why pay $28 for Kansas feed
when you can raise Louisiana feed
for $l4i Instead of sending 1928
out Of the country never to return,
and sending ton of low grade rice
out of the country to help depress
The market, why not keep them
both here You get a better feed,
save half the price of it., and You
lelp materially to solve the knotty
problem of market; for,
A mule, a steer or hog will eat
more rice than man. Market
'our low grade rice on the hoof.

long ago Mr.. Johnston bored we'll

noticed he coal, but did not think it
worth while to keep a record Of the
depth Of the vein, but after passing
through the coal deposit the drill
struck rock that conld not be pene-
trated, and he then commenced to
sink well the usual diameter.
When he reached the bed of coal
he found that the vein was larger
than he anticipated and after pene-
trating the deposit about three feet
was forced 10 stop on account of
the gas. He brought samples of
the coal to town this week, and q
Specimen is OH exhibition at this

Charles NJ Schwab, the former
president of the United States Steel
cooperation, predicts a very prosperous
future tor that organization, and
gives good reasons for his faith. The
company has the best mills and the
richest ore; and the market for steel
is almost illimitable. These are good
reasons for expecting future prosper
ity if the managers will devote their
attention to making steel rather than
to making stock certificates. There is
going to be business enough, of course.
As Mr.. Schwab says, this country
is too large and wealthy, and is going
too fast to believe anything else. "

lNDHR UPON Hx.pREsIDnNT DAVIS,
Among his many foolish savings

Among his many foolish sayings
the socalled histories he has
'itten, Mr.. Roosevelt in his life
Benton says: Before Jeffer-
n Davis took his place among
e arch-traitors in our annals he
ad already been known as one of
ne chief regulators; it was not
natural that to dishonesty to-
Yard the creditors of the public he
hould afterward add treachery to
The public itself"
1t is a well known fact that Mr..
Davis had nothing to do W tn the
financial measures of Mississippi,
relating to the illegal bonds which
were rejected by that State. In
his history he sets out all the facts
in detail. Mr.. Roosevelt could
easily have acquainted himself with
the truth if he had made an effort
to do so He preferred, however,
to assert what was false because it
was popular at that day to de-
nounce Mr. Davis for simply do
ing what all the South did. The
Augusta Chronicle gives this ac-
connt of some correspondence which
once took place between Mr.. Davis
and Roosevelt:
''In after years, when Mr.. Davis
was old and unfortunate. at Beau
voir, the charges made by Mr..
Roosevelt were brought to his at
tention. He waved hem aside
magnanimously, saying: ON, they
are not true, Mr.. Roosevelt made
them in the hot impulse If pre-
JUDGED faith liut when, later
on, MIR. Roosevelt, IN magazine
article, repeated The false charges
and added hat Mr.. Davis per-
sopally did not discharge his debts,
the ex- Confederate President wrote
a-hiua letter to Mr. Roosevelt,
pointing out his errors and offering
TO furnish indspniable evidence as
to his course in the reputation era
and his own individual honesty.
What did Roosevelt dol Any man
Of honor, it seems Ia us, would
have been eager 10 correct all in

relt, without the ordinary courtesy
