HALEY Asks Questions.

Mr. Bailey was anxious to have answered
some questions concerning the White House
conference Of last Saturday These were:
Was the amendment submitted yester-
day by Mr.. Long agreed upon at that
conference and did such a conference oc-
cur?"
He read the newspaper account OF the
meeting which mentioned the names OF
those present, including that Of Mr.. AM
son.
The Iowa senator arose during the read
ing and, turning from Mr.. Long. the Texas
senator addressed his query to Senator
Allison.
Il went to the White House on invita-
tion,' said Mr.. Allison. and in doing 50
he smiled with his fellow senators, who
manifested much good-natured interest over
his being called so suddenly and unex-
peetedly TO the witness stand. ITO nv
knowledge" he went on. this important
question Of just compensation was not con-
sidered at that time" Attempting 10 turn
the current Of discussion. Mr.. Allison asked
whether the senate committee on inter-
state commerce had given sufficient atten
ton 10 this question. Mr.. Bailey then

Mr.. Long begins His speech.

phsseu Ihe mousse yesterday, had Deen re-
ferred to the committee on interstate COM
merce' and Mr.. Patterson had opposed the
adoption of the conference report for the
adjustment of the affairs OF the Ave civil
lied tribes, the railroad rate bill was taken
up. Mr.. Long Immediately addressed the
senate on the subject
Mr.. Long traced the development Of the
doctrine of the judicial review of rates
made by law and showed that rates of a
commission could not be made final be-
yond the power of the court to inquire into
certain questions in relation to them. He
commended that the decisions OF the supreme
court clearly showed that before court
will set aside a rate made by legislative au-
thority, it must clearly appear that the
rate is so unjust or so unreasonable as to
amount to taking property without just
compensation; that the courts will only
interfere with rates made by legislative
authority, when they are confscatory and
they have defined confscatory rates to be
those which do not give a fair return on
the property employed in performing the
service. Rates could not be fixed as low
by congress or by a. commission. said Mr..
Long. as 10 leave the property of the car
rier in the hands of the owner without any
remuneration for its use. It is a judicial
question he said. to determine whether the
maximum rate fixed by the commission
permitted fair return on the property
employed in performing the service and
congress could not and should not inter-
tere with this judicial enaction He held
that all the rights of the carrier were
amply protected under the present juris-
diction of the court which would not be
restricted or enlarged by this bill

POWER OF COOPERATION

Cooperation has proven the
strength and efficiency of the trades,
manufacturing interests and every
gigantic enterprise for development
and the accumulation of wealth.
Farmers have been slow to adopt
these methods. Self-preservation
safety from utter ruin, have forced
them into the arena of combination.
Suppose there was like unanimity
among them to uniformly work
the roads, to systematically handle
and control labor, to adopt plans of
cultivation that will inure to their
benefit there would be a wonderful
revolution both in results as well
as the comfort and independence of
the agricu!turists.
Farming is business, as much
so as any other calling in life. To
prove successful it must be cOnduc-
ted on business principles, pure and
simple. 1t demands the closest at
tention as to details. 1t requires
thrift, energy and system in hand
ling and controlling labor 1t will
not stand inattention nor slip-shod
methods, and every tiller of the
soil is aware of these facts. Many
have acquired the knowledge by
dear bought experience. These
ideas are not the talk of city ed
itor through theoretical knowledge
but from information acquired by
close observation, practical effort
and active operations. Let the
farmer combine in the cultivation
Of their fields and the disposal of
their products and their success
and prosperity are assured II

THE BETTER PART.

ALL RECORDS BROKEN.

Fully quarter of a million dol
lars was spent in Louisiana on the
buildings of new schools during
the year just past, is the report
given out lately by Hon. James B.
Aswell superintendent of Public
Education of the State of Louis
lana.
All reports are not yet in, but
those so far received indicate that
fully S25O,000 was spent on new
schools, des pite the interruption to
business caused by the quarantines.
Every dollar of this money was
raised through local taxation and
individual contribution. 1t does
not include repairs to existing
buildings, but represents an out
lay purely and simply for the
erection of new buildings for the
education of the children of the
state. q o
This is record. 1t exceeds by
a very large margin the record Of
any other year, and shows that
the educational spirit is awaken
ing. If the average keeps up
during the four years of the present
more than the mill
lion dollars, which it was proposed
20 raise by bond issue, will have
oeen spent through local taxation
purely. Exchange.

Judge T. j. Herman of Baton
Rouge, as Attorney on behalf of
the Darby heirs of New Iberia, ap-
pllcants for certain "dried lake"
lands in Lake Tasse, appeared at
the State Land Office and made a
legal tender of 10 cents an acre for
the lands involved. This tender
was rejected by the State Land Of
flee for the reason that these lands
could only be entered under the
provisions of Act 124, of 1902, as
"dried lake" lands, and at the
price fixed by this act. Judge Ker-
naa then made a tender Of $5 an
acre as provided for in Act 124, of
1902. This was also rejected by
the Land Office, for the reason that
there was a prior application to
purchase these lands by DR.. Albert
Il. Emmer Of Iberia Parish, who
claims to be an actual settler. He
repeated these tenders to the State
Auditor and the State Treasurer,
both of whom declined the tender,
for the reason that they were not
accompanied by orders from the
Land Office. There are 160 acres
involved in this case, which will go
into the courts for settlement after
the Register has passed upon the
question as to who is entitled to the
right of pre- re-emption.-Picayune.

The Quay statue continues to get
