But if we are to begin piling

AN OFFICE.

The arbitrary raising and low
ering of rates by the insurance
trusts. the eXorbitant charges of
the express companies and the
general and pernicious activity
of the trusts in this State make
it especially necessary that at
the coming primary the people
should choose an aggressive, en-
ergetic and ambitious young
man to fill the Office of at.
tOrney general. Whatever of
Importance the attorney gen
erals office may have had in the
past. today that Office has become
of vast Importance to the people
because of the oppressive trusts
that have invaded this State and
r exacting a heavy tribute
from it's citizens. Between
the people and the trusts
stands the attorney general,
and unless we place a man
in that Office who is fearless
and can and will do his duty in
forcing them to do business
without restraint of trade and
strictly within the law, we will
for four years more pay a heavy
tribute to these constituencies
and grasping trusts.
AS we said before, we want
an aggressive, energetic and
ambitious young man in the
office and the one who answers
to these qualifications, in our
opinion, is Col. R. G. Pleasant of
Shreveport. He is the man to
elect.

of taxation?
There may be some people in

paying taxes so their money
may be piled up in the banks for
the benefit of toe banks, but we
do not believe there is any.great
number.

WHOSE PLAN IS BEST?

The payment of the State debt
has been made one of the issues
of the campaign by Mr.. Sanders
who contends that provision for
it's payment should be made now,
and pledges himself to that end
if elected. His chief reason, as
given, is that the State has to
pay 100000 a year interest on
her debt, and hat the debt
should be paid and this money
be saved.
Col. Wilkinson claims, on the
other hand, that the debt is not
due for seven years yet, and
therefore the question of the
State debt should properly come
up in the next campaign four
years off. He gives as reasons,
first, that should it be decided to
provide for meeting the debt at
maturity. it would be impossible
to reduce our rate of taxation.
Second. that providing sinking
fund would mean the piling up
of a large sum of money in GER
tain banks greatly to their bene-
fit and very much at the expense
of the people.
The views expressed by the
two candidates is on this question
afford a fine opportunity to Judge
of their soundness of judgment
and thoughtfulness of the people.
Mr. Sanders in addition to the
$50O,OO interest tax on the people,
wants to further tax them over
81. SOC, 900 yearly toprovide sink.
ing fund to be deposited in banks,
which of course have the use OF
the funds. In other words, he
proposes to the voters. that tc
keep from paying a half million
yearly you must pay two mil
lion; you want your taxas reduc.
ed, well, just let that wait, it is
important that we pay the State
debt. And he insists, mind you,
without the slightest assurance
that when the debt is paid, there
WON'T be another one saddled on
the State for. some pressing pur.
pose shortly after. Col. Wilkin.

MARTYR TO SCIENCE.
Dr.Powelps Name Will Go Down
In History of Medicine.

Greenwich, Conn. Aug 29.-Dr.. Sen.
eca D. Powell. whose name will 60
down in the history of medicine as a
martyr to science, died in his home
here, as the result Of constant drink
Ing Of carbolic acid for three years
to prove that pure alcohol Is an anti
dote for the poison.
Few chapters in the history OF how
men have battled against disease equal
the one furnished by DR.. Powell. He
graduated as an NJ. D. in 1869 from
the medical school Of New York uni.
versity, and at once plunged into ex-
haustive experiments with poisons
One after another. he pondered over
methods of neutralizing the effects Of
deadly fluids and powders, and year
after year he added to the knowledge
of the dreaded liquids.
1t was about three years ago that
he determined to find some substance
that would cause carbolic acid to lose

the poison to others, he took small
quantities Of 1t himself, and then ap-
piled various antidotes.
Finally he conceived the idea of
pure alcohol being an antidote. DR..
Powell went to his laboratory and
drank some carbOlic acid Then came
the crucial moment-the moment when
his hopes would be shattered or sci
ence enriched. He drank the pure al
cohol and in few minutes was in his
normal state. Not content with this
initial test, he continued with others,
taking larger quantities of the poison.
Then he went before medical societies
and classes Of students, and for three
years demonstrated the accuracy Of
his theory. But nature rebelled at
last. The poison which had been sat.
urating his system conquered and he
began to fail. He had to abandon act.

Estimated Yearly Cost to Railroad,
10 Twenty-Five Million Dollars.
Pittsburg. Aug. 29.-The Pennsyl
vania Railway company has just is.
sued an appeal to magistrates and sim.
liar officers having jurisdiction in the
territory through which the lines of
the Pennsylvania company pass to
punish all tramps found on trains.
The company. in Its circular. points
out that these tramps are a direct
menace. not only to the lives of rail.
road employees and railway property.
but that their depredations endaneer
the lives Of many others not in the
railway service. and that much valu.
able property owned by private indi-
viduafs Is also destroyed.
The nitroglycerin accident at Ridge
way Is cited as an illustration, and
the further statement Is made that
tramps cost the railroads of the United
States more than $25.OOO.OOO yearly.
