Candidate Bentley Complfmented.

The Republican nominee for member
of congress from this district takes off
his hat to the Baton Rouge Bulletin
for the following very complimentary
notice, which is all the more appreci-
ated because The Bulletin is not a Re-
publican paper and is therefore un-
biased by mere political preferences
or preiudices in his favor:
Elsewhere in our paper will Be found
the announcement OF MIR. r. T.. Bent
ley, of Donaldsonville, as a candidate
for congress from this, the sixth dis
trict. He was nomin ated some time
ago by the Lily White element of the
Republican party, and as that faction
was declared to represent the regular
party in this state, last Friday, by the
Board of Contest, Mr.. Bentley is the
legal nominee. He is we'll known
throughout the state as a gentleman of
culture, refinement and ability; ge-
nial-natured, companionabse fellow,
and is admired and popular wherever
known. He is the founder and owner
of the Donaldsoville Chief, one of the
best and ablest country papers in the
state. and is universally regarded as
one OF the most capable and versatile
newspaper writer's and managers in
this section of the south. He is special
deputy collector of the port of New
Orleans, position which he has filled
in a most capable and satisfactory
way. He belongs to the Knights OF
Pythias, knights of Honor, Ancient
Order of United Workmen and other
organizations, and has held high posi-
tions in them all. He is a clean man
iu every way, conservative and fair
minded, and If he should, by any
chance, win in the race he would
doubtless make an exemplary con-
gresham.
The Morgan City Review makes a
practical suggestion that should com
mend the Republican candidates in the
third and sixth districts to the favora-
| BILE consideration of voters who regard
the material public interests as of more
Importance than partisan politics:
The quickest way to get the PLAQUE
mine locks completed is to send Henry
n. Pharr and L. Z. Bentley to con-
gress. They will have a s.pulls with
| the administr alton, aud th ats all there
is IN it. Democratic congressman have
about as much influence in national
| affairs as a Republican has ia state
affairs.

CAPT. BR0oKsHIRE RESIGNS.
Leaves Government Employ to Engage
in Farming.
New Orleans Timea-Democrat.

New Orleans Times Democrat.
John IA. Brookshire, captain OF night
inspectors ii the customs service at
New Orleans, rendered his resignation
to Collector Henry Mccall, to take
effect on Tuesday, Oct. IS. The reason
of his retirement from the government
employ is a desire to devote himself
to the personal management of the adj
joining farms owned by himself and
his father-in-law in Vermilion parish,
near the town of Abbeville.
Capt. Brookshire was first appointed
an inspector of customs in 1872; re-
signed in 1876; was reappointed by
Gov. Warmoth, then collector OF the
bort. ii 1898; was removed by Col
lector Wilkinson during the Cleveland
administration for "offensive parti-
sanship;'' was reinstated by persona
REQ est of the late President Mckinley
to Collector Wimberly in 1898; was
made captain Of night inspectors four
years ago. He rendered efficient serv-
| ice in that position. His retirement
is viewed with regret by the entire
customs force at this port, and he
carries to his country home their
united friendship and good wishes.
| Capt. Brookshire came south during
the war as sergeant in the FIRST Indiana
Heavy Artillery, ID which regiment he
served from 1861 to 1866, and settled
il Vermilion parish in the latter year,
marrying there and remaining citi-
zen of that parish ever since. He has
been a delegate to every Republican
state convention since 1866, and has
never voted any but Republican
ticket.
Inspector A. L. Reid, one of the
best officers in the local service. has
been designated to succeed Capt
Brookshire as captain Of night in
spectOrs.

RAILROADS AS STATE BUILDERS.
New Orleans Progressive Union Issues
Pamphlet Advocating the Adop-
ton OF the Proposed constita-
tional Amendment.

Pamphlet Advocating the Adop-
ton OF the Proposed Constitn-
tfonai Amendment.
The New Orleans Progressive Union,
aided BY nearly every other public
spirited body ID Louisiana and many
prominent men, has issued pamphlet
on the subject of Railroads as State
Builders, the object being to direct
the attention of the voters throughout
| Louisiana to the constitutional amend
ment exempting new railroad con-
struetion from taxation for ten years.
After extensive correspondence on
this subject, Secretary Mayo learned
| th at representative voters in all parts
OF the state favored the amendment
but feared that opposition TO one or
two OF the other proposed amendments,
which are also to be voted on at the
| November election, might exert an I'M
fortunate influence on this as we'll as
other recognized good changes in the
/ constitution, In order that the voter
may be thoroughly informed as to the
merits of this particular amendment
the pamphlet has been issued by
Secretary Mayo and is now being dis
tributed in every parish OF the state.
The pamphlet shows just what the e.
feet of railroad tax exemption was 10
this state during the fve-year period
ending January 1, 1904, and points
out that many railroad projects could
not take advantage Of it because OF the
| limited time ia which the rails had to
be laid. It is argued that the re-
enactment of this amendment, to be
operative from January l, 1905, te
January 1. 1909, would induce the
/ immediate construction of new lines
of railroad which. in the slower pro
! cess of natural development, woulo
most probably not be constituted fol
years to come. Then, too, existing
roads would be encouraged to extend
their lines, construct new branch
lines and feeders, and otherwise oper
up and develop now untouched terri
tory.
Thus, it is argued, the development
that will follow along such lines woult
increase the taxable values OF tn,

the possible taxable values of ne1
railroad construction. In this way

INSIDE INFORMATION
A Few Facts That Are Of Interest to
Everybody.

A politician has inside information
about deal before he goes into it. A
business man looks into a proposition
before taekling it. An engineer would
not think of buying a piece of ma
chinery without knowing all about it.
The same rule should apply to a

Business In New Orleans.

The following excerpts from Dun .
Review Of Oct. p, showing general
and market conditions at New Orleans,
will prove OF interest:
General Conditions-Cool weather
has materially stimulated retail trade.
Jobbers and manufacturers report that
business continues good and the move
ment of merchandise is fully up to
what it was year ago. Cotton is
now moving freely and collections are
good.
Cotton-Heavy receipts and lack Of
support have caused steady decline
ia the price Of cotton. The decline in
futures will average about thirty
points. Sports are down cents. Re
ceipts OF cotton for the season were
2,194, 634 bales, against I ,42O, sos last
year. Local stocks are 206, O03. Stocks
at all ports are 69s, SO, against 1885,
POI last year.
Rice-The market for rough rice has
been a little more steady, with choice
grades a shade higher. Clean rice has
been in fairly good demand and the
market is firm. Receipts Of rough rice
for the season are 5e6,871 sacks,
against 6lO,58 last year. Receipts Of
clean rice are 121, 1853 pockets, against
1892 last year. According to Dan
Talmage's Sons, the Louisiana crop
movement thus far this season shows
receipts OF 1850 sacks, against 627,-
SIS sacks a year ago, and sales of
1888, $50 pockets, compared with 302, 1898
pockets. in 1908.
sugar-small receipts of new sugar
and molasses have been received and
brought good prices. The demand for
plantation sugar is good, with offer
ings light. Refined sugars are In fair
demand at unchanged quotations.
