MOTTO FOR THE GRAVEYARD.
Gardener Suggests Words That Ger
tainIy Tell the Truth.

From the Philadelphia Record.
Shortly before one of the new ceme-
teries. just outside the city limits on the
the north. was opened. the man who do
mated the land used to walk through the
property every day. One day he took his
gardener with him 10 make suggestions
as to the location of several flower beds
he wished to have placed in various sec
tions of the new cemetery.
On their way home he told the gardener
he thought there was one thing lacking
in the cemetery, and that was a gateway
al the entrance with a motto inscribed
thereon. He said: John, I have been
thinking up the subject Of a suitable
motto, but can't seem to think OF any
thing that we don't see at the entrance
Of almost every cemetery We go TO. Can't
you think Of some suitable inscription"
John scratched his head moment and
then said: How would this do, sir: We
have come 10 stay?

The Cotton Crop.

In It's issue of Monday, Oct. !, the
New Orleans Times Democrat presents
the reports of it's correspondents on
the progress of the cotton crop during
the month of September. The con-
sensus of opinion is TO the following
effect:
1.-The accounts vary greatly, ac-
cording to the sections from which
they come; bur, taking the belt as a
whole, there has been a moderate de-
terioration.
"Pickfng has made good Roadway.
as rule, but farmers are inclined to
hold wherever they have not pressing
debts to pay.
There is much complaint of she'd
ding and premature opening of the
bolIs.
"The next report, which will be the
last, will be printed in the issue of
Monday, Dec. 2, when the usual guam
titative estim ate of yield will be given. -

Opening Of the Grinding Season.

The grinding campaign will be
inaugurated during the coming week
and by the 18th instant practically
every factory in this section Of the
state will be in operation. AS previ-
ously noted, the Mccall Bros. Evan
Hall house in upper Ascension will
get under way next Tuesday, Oct. 10,
and several other mills will follow
suit a day or so later. The cool
weather of the past few days has
exerted a markedly beneficial effect
on the cane crop, and arrived at a
most opportune time. The recent
rains tended to stimulate a growth
of the cane at the expense of sugar
development, but the dry weather and
low temperatures prevailing since
Thursday have done much to ripen the
crop and assures the opening of the
crushing season under fairly favor
able auspices.

Get Busy.

AS is stated elsewhere in this issue
meetings of the Democratic and Re.
publican executive committees of AS.
cension parish will be held at the
courthouse in Donaldsonville on Fri.
day, Oct. Is, and Sunday, Oct. 20, re-
spectively, for the purpose of prepar-
ing for the primary elections to be
held In January next, at which time
all state, parish and ward officers will
be nominated.
The Republican aud Democratic
state central committees met at New
Orleans on Oct. l. According to the
provisions of the primary election law,
the parish committees of the respect
i've parties must meet within twenty
days after the meeting of the state
committees and order that all nomi-
nations for parish and ward officers
and members of the general assembly
shall be made by direct primary on the
same day fixed by the state committee for
the holding of the state primary cleo
ton. The law further provides that all
persons desiring to become candid ates
for parish or ward Offices shall, within
Ten days after the meeting OF the par
ish committee, file with the secretary
Of the committee written notification
Of his intention to become candidate
st the primary, accompanied by dec
laration that he is duly qualified
elector under the constitution and laws
OF this state and member of the po-
litical party under whose auspices the
primary is to be held. At the time of
fling this notification, each candid ate
must also deposit the sum of money
fixed by the parish committee to de-
fray the expenses, of the election.
The attention of all prospective can
didates for Office is directed to the above
provisions of the primary election law.
Failure TO comply with any of them
will have the effect of disqualifying
the candidate and preventing him from
in the race for Office.

Meeting Of Parish and Senatorial cmoulttess.

Meeting of Parish and Senatorial cmOmlitess.
/ v. Maurin, chairman of the Demo-
cratic parish executive committee, has
issued a call for meeting of that body
to be held at the local courthouse on Fri
day OF next week, the 18th inst, at IL
O'Clock a. M, for the purpose of or
dering Democratic primary election
for the nomination of candidates of
the Democratic party for all parochial
and ward Offices of the parish of Ascen-
sion, to be voted for at the general
election to be held in April next, and
30 consider such other matters of in
terest to the party as may be brought
before the meeting. L. w. Armitage,
of barrow, is secretary of the COM
mittee.
A call for meeting of the Demo-
cratic senatorial committee of the
ninth senatorial district, composed of
the parishes of Ascension and ST.
James, has been issued by Chairman
j. K. Tucker and Secretary J. N.
Gourdain, both of the latter parish.
The meeting will be held on the same
day, and at the same place and hour,
as that of the Democratic parish COM
mittee, and its purpose will be to
| adopt such measures as the committee
may deem proper to secure the nomina-
ton of candidate of the Democratic
party for the Office of senator of the
ninth senatorial district, to be voted
for at the general election in April,
1908.
Attorney r. McCulloh, of Donald
sonville, whose announcement as
candidate for the state senate from the
ninth district appeared in last Satur-
days issue of The Chief, is SO far the
only aspirant for the position and will
probably be without opposition.
AS announced elsewhere in today's
Chief, q meeting of the Republican ex-
ecntive committee of the parish OF AS
cension will be held at the courthouse
in Donaldsonville on Sunday, Oct.
20, at II o. CLOCK a. m, and as business
of great Importance to the party will
come up for consideration it is of i'm
perative necessity that every member
should be present. Friends OF the Re-
publicans are cordially invited to at
tend.
Public interest is aroused and both
Republicans and Democrats alike are
looking forward with eager anticipa-
ton to the approaching meeting OF the
parish committees of the respective
parties. It seems to be generally be-
lieved that things political will move
| along very much faster as soon as the
committees formulate rules governing
| the entry OF candidates into the pri-
maries and regulate other matters per-
tanning to party management.

Retain DIR. Asneil.

Y
The following editorial expression
OF the New Orleans Item with reference
to an attempt to ''boom" Prof. Henry
E. Chambers for state superintendent
OF public education so we'll expresses
the views OF The Chief that we cannot
do better than quote our esteemed
contemporary comments:
"a Mr.. r. A. Smith, of Arcadia, sends
US documentary evidence of an assault
on the candidacy OF DR.. j. B. Aswell
for reelection to the state superintend-
ency OF education. Along with them
he encloses request that we express
an editorial opinion on the subject;
and we now take great pleasure in
doing SO.
"We are acquainted with Superin-
tendent Aswell and have observed
hiswork. His personality and general
qualifications we find to be excellent,
and we are pleased with the skill and in
dustry with which he has been putting
into effect the progressive policies of
the state board of education.
''Our opinion is confirmed by that
of every well-informed man and woman
whom We have consulted on the subject.
It was emph ASKED by the trustees of the
University of Mississippi some time
ago, in their effort to get DR.. Aswell
for their chancellor.
''Out of the neatly printed propa-
gands of Mr.. Smith we are utterly un-
able to extract any tangible objection
to DIR. Aswell except that he has inter-
fered with parish boards composed of
men who were legally appointed and
commissioned. !"
''As matter of fact, he has done
nothing of the sort, save to carry out
the clearly defined orders of the state
board of education. Tfhe had doneso,
however, We should count it an offense
rather to be praised than blamed. In
reference iswhat great many OF our
parish school boards most need. Con-
tinual interference is the price of Lou
isiana's relief from the degradation OF
its position at the tail of the parade
of American education.
"There can be no earthly objection
to Mr.. Chambers irruption into the
crowded fray of fall politics, if he
hungers for battle. Nor yet is there
shade OF an excuse for putting out of
Office SO able and devoted q public Of
icer as DR.. Aswell, merely because
some other wishful citizen looks with
green eyes at his job. While the
Item would not for worlds discourage
the opposition, it will heartily give
whatever its good will is worth to re-
elect DIR. Aswell and to defeat any
other candidate.
1--WE do not enjoy the honor OF an
acquaintance with Mr.. Chambers.
There can be no doubt, however, to
one who has read the long, double
column, galley proof into which MIR.
Smith has condensed his biography
and his qualifications, that Mr.. Cham
bers is man of the deepest, broadcast
and Hottest attachments. Among his
many distinctions, as cited by Mr..
Smith, Is fellowship in the Johns
Hopkins University. We fail to find
him SO entered in the Johns Hopkins
Register, but this is doubtless the
fault of the registrar.
eve have no idea at all what
personality is behind the movement
originated by Mr.. Smith of Arcadia,
but We are reasonably certain that
this is the proper time for Prof Cham
bers to pray for salvation from his
friends -
