SWIFT LEGAL PUNISHM EMIT FOR THE
RAPISTS.

This proposition will never be
assented to because of two funda-
mental laws of human nature.
Mans inherent right to protect
the purity and sanctity of his home
and the honor of his name, and
the chivalric spirit that would
shield the innocent victim from
testifying to her shame. They
are God-given rights and have
been exercised since time began.
They will continue to be exer-
cised as long as the cause exists,
even though that be until the end
of time. Human nature in this
respect is the same the world
over and man-made laws cannot
change it. Cannot the newspa-
pers. the pulpit orators and the
lawmakers; who preach the ma
jesty of the law, understand thisf
And do they not understand that
swift legal punishment, involving
as it does, the abridgement of the
constitutional rights of the &C
cused, is, after all, but mob law
judicial mob law? Even under
such procedure the testimony of
the victim is essential to convic-

UNDERGROUND WATERS
Comprehensive Report on Un-
dergPound Waters Of North
Louisiana.

n comprehensive report on the
underground waters of northern
Louisiana has recently been pub
llshed by the United States Geo
logical Survey AS Professional
Paper No. As. The rapid eco
nomical development of this
region and the consequent growth
in population have caused Il great
increase in the demand for good
water for domestic and industrial
purposes. Mills, congresses,
cotton factories, Ice plants, and
other establishments require large
quantities of water, while towns
are looking to the underground
supplies for water for household
purposes and for protection from
fire.
The Investigations made by the
United States Geological Survey
show that in northern Louisiana
several beds of rocks at different
depths yield abundant supplies of
water. In Professional Paper
No. As, which may be obtained by
applying to the Director of the
United States Geological Survey,
Washington. d. G., are discussed
all the conditions that govern the
occurrence of water in wells and
the relation of the geology of
the region to the supply of un-
derground water. The general
discussion is followed by an ac-
count of the underground water
conditions in each country and by
detailed we'll and spring records
The descriptive notes in regard
to the wells and springs are very
complete, and all known infor-
nation regarding the wells in an
area may be quickly found.
There is also a chapter on the
methods and cost of well drilling
that will be of great value in the
development of the underground
water resources. As the relative
elevations of various places are of
great Importance in the solution
of problems relating to artesian
waters, there has been included
in the report list showing the
attitudes of great many points
in the area.

boil weevil of the cotton growing
districts of North Louisiana and

in spite of the boil weevil. An
effort will be made to get some
practical farmers from the infee-
ted districts of Texas to tell our
farmers how they have made a
success of this work.
All farmers attending this con-
vention will be accorded cordial
welcome. On the V. S. & p. rail
way there are eight passenger
trains a day while the Louisiana
& Northwest Railroad will have
regular trains North and South.
