La. Planter and Sugar Mfr.
Advices received from the
country this week apparently
indicate that the seed cane and
stubbles, and, in fact the general
situation of the crop, are all that
could be desired, except in some
few instances where damage of
some limited extent has been in
ficted on the seed cane by local
conditions. AS there seems to
have been an abundance of seed
put down it is not probable that
the intended acreage for this
year will be curtailed in the
slightest degree and all pre-
parati0ns are now going forward
for a large crop.
The work on the plantations
has been pushed very actively
and considerable progress has
been made, the weather having
been propitiOus for all this dur
ing the past ten days.

There is . little Irish tailor in
Harlem who prides himself on a
reputation for courage.
The reputation, however, says the
New York Times, was won and is
maintained much like that of the tailor
in the old story who ''killed nine at
one blow" Fortunately, this knight
of the scissors has discretion.
One morning Mrs. Murphy. q
customer, entered the shop, and find
ing the tailor busy with pencil and
paper, asked him what he was doing.
I'm making . list Az the min on
this block who I can lick" said he,
pompously.
Have ye Murphy's name down?''
asked she.
murphy heads the list" was his
reply.
Mrs. Murphy hurried home with the
news. and Mr.. Murphy came down to
the shop with fire in his eye.
me woman tells me-" he r0ared,
thot you're after making = list Of the
men you can lick, and thOt you've
got nae down at the head of it. Is it
true?"
"Sure, and it's true. What Of it?''
why, you goOd-fOr-nOthing little
grasshopper, l could wipe you out
with my little finger. l could wipe the
door with both me hands tied"
"Are you sure about thst?" asked
the tailor, anxiously.
"Sure? Sure I'm sure about IT,"
"Well." sighed the tailor, regret
fully, '.then I'll have to scratch you
on the list"

Tho President and tie Canal
CommiSsjon.

@~e osW 49, So1o0S
Commission.
N. o. stsses.
In the Panama canal bill passed
by the House the Senate struck
out the provision for the abolition
OF the present commission and
authorizing the President to ap-
point new commissioners. In
spite of the action of the Senate,
however, it is gratifying to know
that the President realizes that
the Canal Commission as at pres
emit constituted has forfeited pub
lie confidence by it's failure to ac-
complish practical results, and is
determined to make changes in
it's personnel. He has the right
of removal and he intends to ex.
ercise' it. The news from Wash
ington is to the effect that he de-
sires to reduce the membership
of the commission to three per-
sons, all of whom shall be practi-
cal engineers of recognized emf
hence in their profession.
Under the provisions of the
Spooner act, however, one of
these engineers must be from
the army and the other from the
navy, but this does not mean that
Admiral Walker is to remain on
the commission. On the con-
trary, it appears that among
other things the President is
fully determined that the i'm
pressive side whiskers of Ad-
miral Walker shall no longer or
nament the commission or exer.
else any influence in canal affairs
in which they have been de-
cidedly conspicuous for the past
twenty-five years. The fact can
not be questioned that under the
craftsmanship of Admiral Walker
the commission has accomplished
nothing, q fact that has been as
disappointing to the country as
it has been to the President.
Therefore, both Mr.. Roosevelt
and the public are justified in the
belief that it will be impossible to
make any progress in the con-
struction OF the Panama canal un-
til the unwieldy commission is
COTTON rid Of and the work placed
under the direction of q small
body of active and able men.
The President has the author
ity to call for the resignation of
commissioners and this, it is said,
he win do at an early day, and he
win then be able to keep the mem
bership Of the commission down
10 three by simply not filing the
places Of those whose resigna
lions he win call for. The Presi-
dent fully understands how
deeply the country is interested
in the success Of the canal pro
Jet and he hopes by adopting
such . plan to get together an
able and harmonious working
force which will achieve results
and hasten the building Of the
waterway.

After having suffered several
days from an aching tooth, dur
ing an exceedingly cold spell OF
weather, Tommy finally sum-
moned the requisite courage and
went to a dentist. After a sur
prisingly short time he returned
home.
Did you have the tooth pulled

No" answered Tommy. Il
didn't have to get it pulled"
did the dentist say so?"

herd OF cattle. In granting graz
ing permits you give preference first
to the small nearby owners; after
that to all regular occupants of the
reserve range, and finally to the
owners of transient stock. This is
exactly as it should be. The small
nearby owners are the homestead
ers, the men who are making homes
for themselves by the labor of their
hands, the men who have entered to
possess the land and to bring up
their children thereon. The other
regular occupants of the reserve
range, that is, the larger ranch
owners, are only entitled to come
after the smaller men. II after these
have been admitted there still re-
owner Of transient stock, the men
who drive from the tramp herds or
tramp fiocks hither and thither,
should be admitted. These men
have no permanent abode, do but
very little to build up the land, and
are not to be favored at the expense
of the regular occupants, large or
small. This system prevents the
grass from being eaten out by other
herds or focks Of non-residents, for
only enough cattle and sheep are
admitted upon the reserves to fatten
upon the pasturage without damag-
ing 1t. In other words, under the
policy you have adopted the forest
reserves are to be used as among the
most potent influences in favor OF
the actual homemaker, OF the man
with few dozen or few score head
OF cattle which he has gathered by
his own industry and is himself
caring for. This is the kind of man
upon whom the foundation of our
citizenship rests, and ii is eminently
proper to favor him in evey way.
Sincerely yours,
