Judge Hobson Convenes Court.


Judge A. N. Hobson came up from
West Union on Friday and re.conven-
ed the November term of the District
Court in order to hand down some
decisions in matters which he had
taken for consideration. The 'only
one of Importance to the public was
in the voting machine matter. At
the recent session of court the VOt-
ing Machine Co. filed motion to
dissolve the injunction formerly
granted by Judge Hobson and also
another motion to increase the bond
of the plaintiff, HI. @. Hjerlied ct al
from $4,000 to 100000. Judge
Hobson 'over-ruled both of these
motions.
The grand jury returned an indict-
ment at the recent term of court
against J. N. Douglas, who is charged
with assault with attempt to com.
mitt rape" and a bench warrant
was issued for his arrest and given
to Sheriff Mizener, who very prompt
ly located him at Winona, MINI.
and returned with him on Thursday.
Friday he was arraigned in court
and plead "not guilty" and it is
probable that his trial will take
place at the next term of court. *

The Oldest House In Louisiana.

The oldest building in Louisiana, the
ancient archbishopric on Charities
street, New Orleans. boasts of one Of
the handsomest courtyards. The build
ing was erected in 1927 and remains
exactly as 1t was first erected. Wis.,
itors will remark the ancient staircase
Of cypress, worn by the passing Of
generations. In the courtyard is seen
one of the oldest and best preserved
specimens Of the Spanish dagger" 1t
dates back, so those who claim to
know aver, to the building Of the pal
ace, and indeed it's height and dignity
indicate anything but youth.-Cra
man.

IIunertfnent.

Originally the word 'impertinent'
signified merely mot belonging to-"
When Wycliffe said that there were
many men in this world who We're
"impertinent to earthly lords" he did
not mean that they were cheeky" but
merely that they had no masters.
Then. as used by Shakespeare, "im-
pertinent" came to mean irrelevant"
Just 200 years ago 1t was defined as
signifying absurd, silly, idle"

Pure Food Bill Dead.

Reports from Washington have it the
| indications are the pure food bill is
dead in the house, once supposed TO
be the home of its friends. And this
same report further says that Uncle
| Joe" Cannon will not tear his hair if
| the bill fails of resurrection.
1t is too bad to have the measure go
that way. for it seems 10 be agreed
by all the disinterested experts that
we are much in need of such a law.
1t took II years TO get a measure of
this kind through the senate, during
which time the house passed several
such bills up to the senate. Now that
the senate has acted the house threat
ems to balk, and if this is done of
course there is no telling how long
we shall have to wait for this piece of
legislation.
The correspondents tell us that
many members of the house are really
afraid of the pure food bill and want
to sidestep it. They fear the votes of
the men who are connected with the
manufacture and sale of impure food.
Some house members are asking that
the measure be put off until after the
fall elections.
A congressman should have more
reasons to fear the votes of those who
are the victims of impure foods, and
that would be the situation were the
victims wiser and more insistent on
their rights. But the situation seems
to favor the other fellows. the makers
of impure foods. If the victim is hit
so hard that he dies of course his vote
is out of the way; if he does not die
his doctor calls it indigestion and he
forgets to place the blame where it be-
longs. On the other side if the manu-
facturer of impure food is made to re-
form or get out of business he has his
vote left, for of course he is not fool
enough 10 eat the stuff he makes and
thus remove himself from the field of
political activity.
