Success of the Boil Weevil
Commission.
Daily Picayune.


The Picayune, in writing on the
Cotton Boil Weevil campaign, was
misled by some indefinite reports
On the subject.
The Boil Weevil Commission
has already commenced its CAM
paign in Sabine Parish. the only
place where any weevils had been
reported, and then only in linn
tied area, in the Negrete neighbor-
hood.
The facts as reported are that
it was decided by the Commission
and accepted by the people with
whom it conferred, that no restric-
tions whatever would be placed
upon the growing of cotton, ex-
cept where the weevil was found
last year and the adjacent farms,
approximating an Area of from
500 to 1000 acres. From the re-
port of Prof. Morgan there are no
more than thirty farmers involved
in this infected area.
Governor Heard, who was with
the Commission, stated that all
were greatly encouraged by the
full understanding had between
the Commission and the people of
the locality.
This is truly gratifying, and the
Picayune believes that great good
will come of the arrangements en-
tered into.

heart troubles from which he was
suffering for number of years.
Mr.. Fontelieu was native OF
New Iberia, he was aged 40 years,
and had been appointed Marshal
six years ago. He was a lawyer
and a prominent politician, being

can party.
His remains were brought to

Eight of the lawyers was mostly on

The jury remained in their deli
tberating room long time before
they came to an agreement, one OF
sthe jurors told to the court that il
sthe jury was held for 40 years they
scould not agree, but the Judge
Thought otherwise. and sent them
back to their room, this was Fri
sday morning. At about twelve
O'Clock Saturday, a verdict was
sresched. it was guilty, recommen.
.ded to the mercy of the court.
On the first ballot seven were fol
sconviction and five for acquittal
safter having remained in the jury
sroom for such a long time, two
days, two of the not guilty jurors
schanged their verdict to guilty
which made nine in favor of con,
'viction and three who thought
Wood not guilty.

If Congress should pass the
Brownlow bill, which provides
for national appropriation of
$24,0 100000 to aid states in the
construction of better highways,
it will only be doing what many
foreign governments have done on
"a large scale. France for
instance, has 23,603 miles
of national highways built
and maintained by the gov
ernment. Italy has 5000 miles of
government-built roads. In the
last decade the United States gov
eminent has spent more than SITS,
100000 for FLYER and harbor inn
provements, and the national ex-
penditure under this head will go
on indefinitely. The supporters
of government aid in good road
construction argue that just as'the
government had aided the COM
MERGE of cities, it should now aid
+, the commere of the country towns
by helping the farmer to secure
good roads over which to haul his
produce to market. The scheme
may be said to favor somewhat Of
paternalism, but if 80 the farmer
will be likely to conclude that it
only helps to even things up for

six months separate from other
money. During this period, the
owner of the estray may appear

If no person appears within six
months, the money goes to the

In the foregoing extract from the
North Dakota statutes we have
tried to makei it clear to our readers
just what the estray law covers.
OF course, the meaning of the law
cannot always be drawn from the
text of the law itself. and must be
gotten by reading the law in con-
nection with other provisions of
the statute. We have endeavored
to do this. It may be that some
points are still left in the dark and
if SO, we would be pleased to hear
from any one who has some ques-
tion to ask and we will try to find
an answer.-Bottineau Courant.

n. Gloom Among The Farmers.

There is a suspicion in some
parts of the east that western talk
to the effect that prosperity is still
doing business in the cities and on
the farms of the west is of the
graveyard-whistle variety,
The best way to acertain whether
there is anything in this eastern
suspicion is to get out among the
farmers and get their views. There
Iis very little hardup talk among
them. They growl some about the
price of cattle, but on the whole
they are pretty we'll content.
The farmers of northern Mime
sofa and North and South Dakota
are holding a convention at Fargo
this week. It would take a care
full scrutinizing, indeed, to find
any traces of general gloom among
them, They are q comfortable
looking lot Of men. Their talk is
comfortable, too. It isgood healthy
talk of buying and selling land, of
new departures in farming, of con-
gratulations on the prospects for
high wheat prices next year, of
satisfaction with results obtained
this year, of comparisons of sub
stantial possessions to-day with
the poverty of ten or fifteen years
ago.
These farmers do not regret the
past, deplore the present or face
the future with apprehension.
They are at the very sources Of
their work and products
are indispensable. Close to the
earth, no financial storm can de-
stroy and every wave of prosperity
must benefit them.-Minneapolis

DoN'TS.

Col. g. A. Lownsberry offers the
following suggestions to those in
tending to file on lands:-
Don't take a homestead unless
you intend to live on it. If you
do, it is in bad faith and unlawful.
Don't prove up on a homestead
for the benefit of another person.
It is fraud and may land you in
the penitentiary.
Don't lend money on q home
stead proof without having inquiry
made as to the character of the res
idence of the party, for he may lose
the land and you the money adj
vanced to him.
Don't become the witness on a
scaley proof, for you may be pros
ecuted for perjury.
Don't place any confidence in an
alleged lawyer or agent who tells
you that you can prove up when
you have visited the land only oc-
casionally. He is a fraud or a knave.
Don't fail to cut out and send to
the special agent the published
notice of any claim on which fraud
ulent proof is about to be made.
If you do this, you will. secure ac-
tual settlers instead of speculative
entries on the lands in your neigh

SERIOUS
FOR MAXWELL
In San Jose While
DiSpOSing Of Jewelry
Some Of the Articles Recognized as
Having Been Stolen a Year
Ago From GOIden'S Store.

A dispatch from San Jose of the
Gath inst. says that Chief OF Police
Carroll has in custody a man giving
the name of Ed Maxwell, who claims
to have come here from San Fran
cisco. Maxwell was found endeavor-
ing to dispose of some valuable Jew.
elry in a local pawnshop and was
taken into custody IN the suspicion
that he had come into possession of
the goods by unlawful means. At
first he refused to disclose his iden-
tity or answer any questions, but
finally gave his name and stated that
the jewelry had been given him by a
young woman in San Francisco.
When arrested he had in his pos
session a fine lady's hunting-case gold
watch Of Waltham make, a marquis
ring with three rubies and a pearl, a
small wire band diamond ring and a
pair OF gold and ivory cuff buttons.
The latter, with one of the rings,
was tied 10 a portion OF a linen hand.
kerchief with the initial "a" worked
in the corner in silk. The watch had
no chain or ring, and was numbered
case 99,663, movement 6 1922, SIT. To
night Maxwell received a telegram,
signed "a" and worded:
ed, come to Frisco"
Chief Carroll has communicated
with the San Francisco police and
will hold the suspect until a thorough
investigation has been made.
Several pieces of the jewelry cor
respond with things taken from the
Golden jewelry store at Tonopah
when it was robbed a year ago.
AS will be remembered, Maxwell
was arrested at the time OF the rob
berry, but was discharged for want of
evidence. A second arrest followed,
with the same result, but a third
charge preferred against him was
made to stick, and the case is now
pending before the district court.
Maxwell has many friends in Tono-
pah, and opinion as to his guilt has
heretofore been divided.

strikes ever made in Arizona is re-
ported in the Santa Rosa district,
about fourteen miles from Douglass.
1t consists OF a ledge about six feet
wide, having a fifteen. inch pay
streak. 1t contains wire gold and
runs thousands of dollars in free gold.
The country is everywhere mineral
