Spirit of Weekly Papers.

There is something refreshing about
turning away from a pile of daily
newspapers and taking up weekly and
and semi-wkekly issues from smaller
places, says the Denver Republican.
The dailies from larger centers of pop
ulation have all become more or less
inoculated with the virus of yellow
journalism, with a few notable eXcep-
tiOns.
The pile of weekly exchanges, how
ever, indicates that the country editors
have grasped readily that part of the
new phase of journalism, which might
be termed enterprise, but have refused
to follow the sensational and unreli-
able methods of the larger sheets. The
type is cleaner and brighter than be-
fore; pictures are frequently used to
make the pages attractive; more at
tention is paid to proper display OF
advertisements, and the press work is
much better as rule.
But through it all the weekly paper
has remained true to its principles and
its editor has his forefnger upon the
public pulse. When the editor cOnfers
with the mayor ad discovers that tho
chief executive of the town wants the
streets cleaned, he prints something
! like this:
Mayor So.and-So calls our atten-
ton to the fact that the stress need
cleaning up and the weeds.need cutting.
We have observed this ourselves, and
right in this connection we desire to
say that if some of our lazy, good-for.
nothing citizens don't get out and
hustle little bit this spring the City
will send around somebody to do the
work for them, and big, husky col.
lector will follow. There is no sense
in letting this town go to seed
There you have as honest an express
sion of purpose and opinion as coulG
drip from the pen. The editor means
it, and he doesn't care WHITTIER the
mayor belongs to his party Or not
When the mayor of larger city makes
request for q general cleaning up O
the city, one paper comedies with hin
regardless OF everything in the nature
of politics, another comes out and say!
there is a graft in the street cleaning
department, another thinks it is al
opening wedge to smuggle new alder
man into the council, and another il
wary of the proclamation on genera
principles. All of this grows out 0
the new policy of indirectness ant
misrepresentation.
For a concentration of honest etfor
and the maintenance of true civic pride
the weekly papers still hold the lea'
over most dailies.

LeBeu Boys Under Arrest.

The rumors concerning the sensa-
tional doings at the Ward | convict
camp at Iowa, of which D. f. LeBleu
was foreman and Mitchell LeBleu was
guard, came to head yesterday when
Deputy Sheriff Chitwood placed the
two LeBleus under arrest and present
ed them an order from Sheriff Reid re-
questing their commissions and de-
manding that they turn over their pris-
oners to his keeping. D. E. LeBleu
had surrendered bis commission to
Deputy Chitwood Last Friday, but
Mitchell Le-Bleu was still in posses
sion of his and was found guarding the
convicts by Deputy Chitwood.
Both men submitted willingly to ar
rest. turning over their two eonvicts,
Jesse Stafford and a Mexican, whose
name is unknown. and accompanied
the deputy and the two convicts to the
station at Iowa, where they boarded
the westbound Southern Pacific train
due here at 1858 p. m. When the train
arrived here the Mexican took advant-
age of the deputy's attention being
centered on the other prisoners and
! Jumped through the window OF the car
and made his escape. He has not yet
been unprecedented.
The deputy sheriff and bis three pris'
oners arrived here and proceeded to
the sheriff's Office, where the two Lee
Bleus promptly gave bond in the sun
of $3.50 each for their appearance al
the district court, with M. 0. LeBleu

surety. Stanford was sent to the par
ish jail to serve out the remainder o
his sentence.

A Sermon Full Of Sound Doctrine.

Rev. Brock, of the First Baptist
church of Welsh, preached Sunday
night splendid sermon full of genu-
inc christianity. In his discourse he
pointed out the duty Of the Christian
to the sinner, and explained why so
many. who would otherwise have more
respect for the church and connect
themselves with it, were it not for the
actions and conduct of certain MEM
bers of every denomination. In other
words drive people from the house OF
God by their proud and naughty
bearing, instead of inducing them by
kind words and affection to visit often
the places OF worship. Christ in his
humble self-sacrificing way redeemed
the world. A business man for the
love of the almighty dollar will as
sociate and be familiar with his in
feriors socially and why should not ne
for the Great Cause of Jesus Christ
and the Christian religion do likewise.
Rev. Brock gave the ack-biters and
liars hot shot from his we'll supplied
arsenal. Rev. Brock is young man
and we perdict for him bright future
in the ministerial field.

purity and truth, we need have no fear
for the durability of our structure.
Now that we have our foundation
laid, let US proceed to build. In pre-
pairing the lesson, the teacher should
study as for bible class recitations,
then read up on primary help, then
draw the lesson pictures. In present
ing the lesson to the little ones simpli-
fy the language as much as possible
and endeavor to center their minds on
one important object in the picture,
and if we only impress one thought
each time we meet We have not met in
vain.
"Not all that seems to fail has failed
indeed, what though the seed be cast
by the wayside and the birds take 1t ?
yet the birds are fed" And if we only
teach the little ones when and how
to pass to and from class, and to sit
quietly during class hour, thereby
forming good habits of promptness
and order, our time is not lost,
Our equipment for this work should
be diligent study and earnest prayer
for guidance in all wisdom, for to the
primary teacher is intrusted the first
training of the superintendent, officers
and teachers of the Sunday School OF
the future.

REPLY TO PHILIP COYERDALE
In Regard to the Rice MaggOt by the
Crop Pest Commission.

On the llth inst. Philip Coverdale,
of Welsh, wrote to Prof. DObsOn. of
the Crop Pest Commission; in regard
to the rice maggOt and in reply to this
letter Wilmon Newell, secretary of the
commission. forwards the following
under date OF the 18th inst. to Mr.. Cow
erdae:
SHREVEPORT, La, July Il, 1908.
Mr.. PHILIP CovERDALE, Welsh, La;
Dear Sir;-Your favor of the llth
inst. to Prof w. Il. Dodson has been
referred to this office for reply. 1t is
very probable that the worm which is
injuring the rice crop in your vicinity
is the regular rice maggot or rice wee
vii. The little white worms are the
Larvae or immature stage of a small
weevil known as the rice weevil. which
is of a dark brown color, about one
eighth of an inch in length. In fact,
during the month of May, we received
great many of these weevils from
parties in rice sections. The weevils
were abundant at that time and were
attracted in large numbers to electric
| lights and were mistaken by many
people for the cotton boil weevil.
1t is supposed that the rice weevil
deposits its eggs about the roots of the
growing rice, or upon or in the lower
part of the same. These eggs hatch in.
to the little worms which seem to work
at or below the surface of the water.
No remedy has been found SO far for
this insect, except to draw off the wa.
ter from the infested field and leave il
off as long as possible without injur'
ing the crops.
In fact, Very little is known abou'
this insect, and it is a pest that really
ought to be carefully investigated. anG
this department will attempt to make {
study of it as soon as it is possible tt
do So 1t is doubtful, though, if i
will be able to give the pest any atten
ton this year.
Yours very truly,

that they threatened to kill any OF the

the outgrowth of spite work and that
they will easily prove themselves inno-
