There is a movement on foot to better
the standards of goods manufactured

eliminate the cheaper grades sold in

items OF interest from Field and Factory.
/ Progress OF the Grinding Campaign
! in Ascension and Elsewhere.
It would be difficult to conceive of
prettier weather than that which is
prevailing in this section at present,
and the weather man certainly deserves
| vote of tn anks for the splendid treat
ment he is according the sugar plant
ers. The days are clear and pleas
antly cool, and at night the mercury
takes tumble and disports itself in
a way that is sure to result in much
good for the cane, which is ripening
at q rapid rate. In most localities
labor is plentiful, and on the whole
the grinding campaign is progressing
exceptionally we'll.
At the Miles Planting and Manufac-
turing Company's New Hope factory
in upper Ascension the grade of sugar
turned out is classed as 96 test, with a
yield Of 40 pounds, estimated sec
onds included, per ton of cane.
The juice is weighing s Beaume, and
the percentage of sucrose is III. In
the field Is tons Of stubble are being
secured per acre. These figures are
for last week, better results having
been obtained this week.
Reports from most of the factories
in this section indicate that the cane
is fast ripening and that the yield Of
sugar is entirely satisfactory. In some
places as high as 120 to $50 pounds of
tirsts are being obtained per ton, while
in others the yield is fixed at So to lis
pounds. The average weight of the
juice is u or 5 Beaume, with the per-
centage of sucrose at about IL. The
yield of cane per acre runs all the way
from Is to rs tons of stub5le, none of
the plant cane having been touched as
yet. This cane is expected to show q
very heavy tonnage. No serious break
down has occurred at any OF the fac
tories, although few have had some
slight trouble with the machinery. At
some places the mill was closed down
in order to allow the field force time
to furnish sufficient supply OF cane.

Old Negro Dies In Jail.

Champ Richardson, an old negro
about Is years of age who has been in
the parish jail for the past four or Eve
months, died Thursday evening after
an illness of only few days. Rich
ardson was interdieted for insaa1ity,
but owing to the fact that there was
not room for him at the state insane
asylum he was incarcerated in the par
ish jail and has remained there ever
since. His remains were Inferred at
the expense Of the parish. The old
man was for many years employed on
a plantation short distance down
Bayou Lafourche and was a perfect
type of the ante bellum negro.

President Roosevelt's Endorsement
and Eindicafian.

Prominent among the facts tina
stand out in bold relief as justifiablt
deductions from the results Of las
Tuesdays memorable national cleo
ton, two are especially conspicuous
First, that the principles and admin
strative policies OF the Republican
party are believed to be more con-
ducive to the we'll being Of the nation
than those advocated and supported
by the Democracy. Secondly, that a
vast majority Of the people OF the
United States admire the manhood,
courage and candor Of President
Roosevelt, and have an abiding faith
in his integrity. The striking per-
sonality of this true man and typical
American citizen was unquestionably
material factor in securing the
phenomenal majorities that were
rolled up for the Republican ticket in
nearly three-fourths of the states OF
the Union. He possesses the public
respect and confidence in an extraor-
binary degree, and the partisan abuse,
criticism, Misrepresentation and ridi-
Guile to which he has been subjected
have not only failed to weaken the
popular trust reposed in him, but
reacted upon his traducers and in
jured the cause their ignoble tactics
were designed to serve.
President Roosevelt's first public
utterance after learning something of
the overwhelming proportions OF the
vote the nation had given him, was
characteristic Of his nature and strong
sense of propriety and duty. In the
presence Of a number OF representa-
lives of the press at Washington he
dictated the following statement to
his private secretary: 81 am deeply
sensible of the honor done me by the
American people in thus expressing
their confidence in what have done,
and have tried to do. | appreciate to
the full the solemn possibility this
confidence imposes upon me, and |
shall do all that in my power lies not
to forfeit it. On the 4th of March
next / shall have served three and a
half years, and these three and half
years constitute my first term. The
wise custom which limits the president
to two terms regards the substance
and not the form. Under no circum-
stances will [ be candidate or ac-
cept another nomin alton"
Among the thousands Of congratula-
tory kilograms that poured in upon
the president, one Of the earliest
was from his defeated opponent, Judge
Alton B. Parker, who said: "The
people, by their votes, have en-
phatically Endorsed your administra-
ton, and congratulate you.''
These words were well and truly
spoken. The people have indeed
given President Roosevelt and his
administration an emphatic indorse-
ment, and in SO doing have not only
honored him, but themselves as well.
