The NO-Fenc.. Law.

The parish Of Claibornei Ii probably
the best hill parish in Louisiana, and
the no-fence law In that parish Is one
uf it's very best assets. Ten years
ago they voted in this law, and 1t Is
said it nearly caused war in all the
parish borders. 1t took hard work
To carry it, and 1t won 10y only
small margin, but II the repeal OF
that law was put to a vote now II
would be overwhelmingly defeated.
Since the no-fence law was passed
the hill farmers of Claiborne parish
have been able to- make and clear u
great deal of money. Under this law
they can raise crops of corn ana cot
ton without going to the expense vi
fencing In their fields. Only the cat
lie and stock are fenced IN, and the
people of the parish have paid atten-
ton to getting better grades of stock
than formerly. The scrub COW and
the razor-back hog il not known IN
TINT parish now, and the people
would not think of returning To the
old expensive and ruiuous fence
system.

mass OF the voters OF the Northwest

able adverse criticism at the time OF
the San Francisco-Japanese 'imbrog-
Ito. But afterward 1t seemed appar-
ent that the President was going to
achieve by diplomacy what our peo-
pie mainly wished, the exclusion OF
the Japanese coolies, and so the
earlier antagonism was allayed. A
man of the Presidents prodigious
activity may occasionally come in
for popular roast but the splen-
did and benefcient things he accom-
plishes completely cancel any errors.
ION the other side of the house,
the nomination of Colonel Bryan
seems assured. He is far and away
the strongest man in his party, and
everywhere in the west he numbers
his admirers by the thousands. But
Colonel Bryan with all his good
qualities, could hardly be expected
to carry forward the policies Of
Roosevelt to any such satisfactory
degree as the man who originated
them. The hand that undertakes a
task is the proper one to finish It. :"

That Has Put the Administration at
His Back.

Washington special: Senator
Bourne woke up to find himself ia
nous. "The Bourne dinner" was ex-
poited in every big eastern paper
the dinner at which Senator Penross
gave away the full story of the Har-
riman- n-Rockefeller-H Hearst-Wal street
conspiracy to unhorse Mr.. Roosev 1t
The publicity was unsought by Mr..
Bourne, but his fame spread in spite
of him, and today he was the most
sough. man in Washington.
But II profited newspaper men
nothing TO interview Oregon's new
senator. To one and all he declared
he had nothing to say other thar
what he told the oregohian corre-
spondent last night-that he had
given several dinners and attended
others; that he could not, as host.
discuss just what took place at his
own table any more than he could.
as guest, discuss what transpired at
the festive board of friend.
In spite OF Mr.. Bourne's reticence,
It seems to be generally understood
by newspaper men In Washington
that Mr.. Penrose made his notorious
break" at Bournes dinner, and ono
senator who was present has ad-
mltted as much.
MIR. Bourne had n long talk with
the President, but, had nothing for
publication when he left the White
House. Neither had the White
House any new light to throw on the
situation. Apparently, the Bourne
dinner" is considered as having pass
ed into history, but, In passing, II
brought into great prominence the
name OF Oregon's new senator, and
emphasized TO the country that Mr..
Bourne is not only In close touch
with the administration. but is a fire.
quent caller at the White House and
in mighty good standing with the
President. II Mr.. Bourne gave the
dinner. he was instrumental In rem
dering the administration a service
OF inestlmable value.
Regardless OF what Mr.. Penrose
said and what lay behind Il, the adj
ministratlon has turned a mighty
clever trick and outwitted the men
