INDEPENDENTS ARE
CAUSING TROUBLE,
City Clerks Office May Be Encountered
with a Lot of Unneces-
sary Labor.

A situation that promises to be one
of the most unique in the history Of
local politics is confronting City Clerk
James F. Connolly now, and mother
kink will be added to the twisted chain
when he election officers AXE up the
matter. 1t is in regard to the Inde-
pendent Citizens party's right to have
ballots if they do not file election petit
tions in accordance with the law. The
question has some sides that will rack
the brains of the city officials and the
election officers before they are settled.
The City Clerk asked the law depart
ment to decide whether the city would
have ballots printed for the Citizens
party If petitions were not filed ac-
cording to the law, and City Counsel
James R. Nugent, in his opinion, yes
terday stated hat they had no right
to ballots if the petitions were not filed
before Saturday, the last day, accord
ing to the law, that the petition can be
filed.
The City Clerk communicated with
Alden Freeman. chairman of tile Citi-
zens' party, and this morning Mr.. Free
man and Herman B. Walker were in
consultation with the City Clerk. After
informing the chairman of the Citizens
party of the opinion of the law de-
partment, he asked if the party in
tended to file petitions. Mr.. Freeman
said he did not know as yet.
The trouble that is put up to the City
Clerks Office is that if the Citizens
party, which at the present is a recog-
nized political party, having received
a sufficient number of votes at the last
general election to GUILTY. as such,
file a petition in one district of any
ward for ward officers, then the city
will have to have printed a ticket for
the entire ward, but he will have to
leave blank all the offices and places
in the other districts of the same
ward, thus entailing a lot of unneces-
sary work.

AS CHAIRMAN
MAY TAKE PLACE OF How
ELL IN COMMITTEE.
Seems to Be Most Likely Candidate for
Vacancy in County Demo-
cratic Body.

In the course of a few days h COM
mite appointed Monday night by the
Essex County Democratic Committee
to select a successor to Police udge
David T. Howell, who resigned as
county chairman, will make a report.
A special meeting will then be called
and the name of the man selected by
the special committee will be presented
for ratification.
1t is understood that James r. Nu-
gent, Richard ]. Franz, Laurence 7.
Fell, Elvin w. Crane and edward
HART, who were delegated to select
Judge HowelPs successor, have agreed
upon DR.. William Dimond to take
charge of the campaign. He will hold
office until next January. when the
county committeeman elected at the
primaries September 10 Of this year
will organize and elect another chair
man. 1t is understood, however, that
unless some revolution happens with
in the Democratic ranks DR.. Dimond
will again be chosen in January. The
committee, it is said, have made the
selection with that purpose in mind.
1t was at first rumored that William
F. Hoffman, the present treasurer of
the organization, would be chosen for
the place. His name met favorable
consideration for a short time Mon
day night at the county committee
meeting, but before the gathering had
dispersed DR.. Dimond's name took a
quick bound into prominence, which
has resulted in a decision in his favor.
DIR. Dimond is a strong Democrat.
He was warden of the county Jail
during the term of former Sheriff Will
lam C. Nicoll. and Is at present en-
gagged in business in Plane street.

THIS RALLY A FLUKE
NO PERMIT OBTAINED BY
COLBYITES.

Rain and Policeman Bowron. OF the
First Precinct station prevented the meet
ing Of the Colbyites last night. which was
scheduled to take place at the corner OF
Nevada and Court streets. A crowd. made
I'D mostly Of negroes. assembled to hear
the Colby speakers. When the rain start
ed the orators of the evening sought shell
ter in a doorway, but the audience stayed
in the street. When the rain slackened
the audience wanted the meeting started.
Neighbors complained to Policeman Bow
ron and he communicated at once with
Desk Sergeant Mcclellan. The latter got
into communication with Acting Captain
Caffrey. Bowron received word from Act
Ing Captain Caffrey to try and adjust
matters as best he could.
Bowron, who was in the army for seven
or eight years. is a sickle for living up
to the law. He knew that there is a city
ordnance which provides that in order
TO hold an open air meeting it is first
necessary t. obtain permission from the
police. Bowron went back TO the scene OF
the meeting and the disorder was worse,
The Colbyites were unable to maintain
order and Bowron asked them II they had
Il permit. They replied that they had not
so the policeman ordered them to dis
perse.
A committee called at the First Pre-
cinct station TO have he affair patched
up. Sergeant Mcclellan told them thai
they must first secure a permit to hold
an open air meeting. The committee sale
that they did not wish to break any city
ordinances.
Chief of Police Corbitt this morning
said tina no permit had been obtained
from him, but that had a permit beer
granted the meeting would never have beer
broken up. as sufficient police protection
would have been furnished. Chief Cor
bit said that the policeman did his bes
to preserve order, and then finding out tina
the speakers had no permit. he took thu
only course possible and stopped the meet
ing.

Announcement was made first that in
case Mr.. Freeman got the Republican

GET OUT OF THE RUT.

The great majority Of farmers
continne to plod along in the same
dulland weary way of their remote
ancestor, withOutsystep or seeming
desire. to get out Of the old beaten
rnts. They yseem content with poor
returns for labor invested. They
usually pursue the same method
and do not study to keep their
soils productive or to improve pro-
ductive capacity. AS result their
SOILS are robbed of original fertili-
ty the humus of vegetable matter
il gradually DESTROYED, and the des-
traetion gradually goes on from
year 10 year aud from bad to
worse. To prove this, take The
cotton crop of last season. AS an
average it required nearly three
acres to produce from one-half to
one and one-half bales, then we
can see that the great majority
made a comparative failure, and
are III as bad fix with cotton at
10 and IL cents as when it only
brought 5 aud 6 cents .-Abbevills

A CARLOAD OF BABIES.

Aud yet there are those who
compare our civilization with that
of China, and disparage the work
OF foreign missionaries who seek
to convert to the doctrines of
Christ the devotees of al ancient
faith that justifes the placing of
infants-if they are SO uniucky as
to be girls--on the banks or bitches
or along the roadways, to die OF
starvation aud exposure.
Read the following quotation
from the Meridian Evening Star:
"The following with reference
to the carload of babies from New
York TO Louisiana fer distribution
TO chiid1ess wives and husbands,
is reproduced from the Winona
(Miss.) } Times: A carload of chii-
dren passed through Winona
Thursday en- route to Louisiana,
where they will find homes. There
We're exactly ffty-seven children in
the Car, forty-eight of whom were
boys and niue girls. The children
were all from New York city aud
ranged in age from 3 to 6 years.
Many, in fact, nearly all the chill
dren lad been placed with the
New York Orphans Asylum when
they were wee little tots of human
ity and the appearance of the child
rem showed that they had been we'll
cared for. They were neatly
dressed, their faces clean and their
hair nicely brushed, except two or
three girls who had their hair in
curl papers.
"Frlday the car will arrive in
Opelousss, st. Landry parish, and
1t will be a day when they give
babies away. Each person who
secures baby must be able to take
care of it aud send it to school.
Contracts of this kind are drawn
up and signed. Every six months
the people who take these children
must file a report as to how the
child is thriving. The orphans
home never loses sight Of them and
holds itself responsible for them
until they become of age. The
children were told that they were
being carried home, and frequently
81 am going to see
papa and mama" They were
looking forward to meeting their
new parents with all the fevor of
delight. The New York
from which they came
spends 1925, 900 year looking
after children and babies.
"Mr. Swayne stated that in three
weeks he would pass through Wi
mona with another instalmeut of
fifty-three in number, for
Louisiana homes. He says his
Institution has found homes for
more than 10000 orphans and now
have 2.5f6 on hand. THE Daily
