LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR
WILL NOT FIGHT DUEL
louisiana Official Challenged
by Son of the Late Sem
ator Caffery,

New Orleans, La, Nov. G.-Ti:e firm
reply OF Lieutenant Governor Sanders
yesterday to what has universally leen
accepted as a challenge FOR 4 duel 10
Donelson Caffery, son of the late Unit
ed States Senator Donelson Caffery,
has created a dramatic political situa-
ton in Louisiana. Another matter,
foreign TO the personal combat has in
creased the tension. The practically
rival proclamations of the lieutenant
governor and Of Governor Blanchard to
the coming extra session Of the legisla-
tu,e We're brought face TO face by the
governors arrival here from the cast.
In close conformity tc The code OF
hcnor, Mr.. Sanders issued Il written re
ply TO the statement of Caffery. This
statement declared that the lieutenant
governor holds himself personally re-
Sponsible for the u~tterances which
caused the trouble, n adds:

Sibility, and Mr.. Caffeyy knows whcre

Next oiiowed the posting of SAN
ders in several sections of the state by
Mr.. CaffeIy with handbills, stating that
satisfaction had been refused him by
MIR. Sanders. These handouts declared
that the lieutenant governor had called
some of Mr.. Caffery's statements un-
true.
The discretion of both the lieutenant
governor and MIR. Caffery is relied on to
prevent n personal encounter. There
are fears. however, that friends OF the
dlsputants may be drawn into a serious
quarrel.
Governor Blanchard. before leaving
for the east, announced that he would
probably annul Mr.. Sanders proclama-
ton. which placed corporation con-

New York, Nov. 6.-More than 400
American girls have married foreigners
of noble families and many of them
have given big fortunes to their Eu-
ropean husbands. The French journal
lie Petite Partisan declares American
girls who married abroad mostly for
foreign titles have carried with them
to Europe the astonishing sum of $780,

sociate this statement with the reports
of tight money in America, yet the
fact that hundreds of millions have

in it has been warranted and it is this
year producing %undoubted evidence that
in agricultural possibilities and re-
sources it stands among the first Of food
producers. A late spring delayed seeding
from the usual early April period until
late in May, and in m:I1y cases well on
into June. 1t is a little early to tell the
result, but that there will be a three
quarters crop is almost certain. The
yield of wheat in 1906 was 95 million
bushels; this year it will be between 10
and 80 million. 1t could not be expected
that seeding of June. would mature and
ripen in any country. The May sown

proved Western Canada's superiority as
a great grain growing country. 1t dem

season, although shorter in number of
days than in parts farther south, in hours
is as great or greater.
1t is true the season has not been so
favorable as other seasons, but this con-
dition is widespread. The corn crop in
the States of the Union, where it is the
premier crop of the farmers, is subject
to frost. Frost has undoubtedly material
ly reduced the total yield in places this
year, but after every allowance has been
made for this and other causes the fact
remains that the total grain in Alberta
will be the largest in history, while in
the other provinces the yield will not fall
far short of other years.

PEANUT POLITICS.

Mansfield Journal: Thomas o, Har
ris, Governor Blanchard's private secre-
tary, arrived in our town from Baton
Rouge last Friday and left the parish
Tuesday He was close-mouthed as to
the object of his visit except to few of
our citizens, but enough has leaked out
to make it certain that he came to make
sure of the position of the prospective
appointees on the new school board on
the matter of the subserviency of parish
school boards to the State board, the
primary motive being, we take it, to ap-
point only men who would not vote for
Mr.. Goss for parish superintendent.
This is peanut politics for you. Men
are not wanted to look after the educa-
tional interests of the parish unless they
will take orders from Baton Rouge. And
the idea of the Governor of a great
State sending his private secretary on
such a dirty mission. Governor Blan-
chard halds the top of the record for
small politics Shades of Henry w. AL
Zen! What are we coming to?

and his tone of voice indicated that he
was resentful. In alluding to Prof
Staudt and lady teacher, whose name
he reserved from publicity, he said that
Prof. Blanton was vicious. When cross
examined he said he had no feeling or
malice in the case. His only concern
was in the welfare of the public school
He admitted that he had been selected
by the lady teacher in question to pleod
her cause. When queried as to his inn
preston of the application of dishonest
ia his methods, etc, he replied: 'One as
by the lady teacher in question to plead
is being carried out in this case; the
other is personal If applied to me |
would knock him out" To call man
dishonest is serious offense.
The case was then argued by counsel.
at the close of which Judge Webb i'm
posed a fine of $25.oo on Prof. Blanton
He prefaced this fine with remarks per-
tinent to the case. He expressed the
,opinion that Prof Blanton had been
hasty and indiscreet in charging Prof
Staudt with dishonesty.
When the case was ended and all con-
cerned appeared on the sidewalk. Prof
Staudt was cheered by party of school
boys who were standing near by.
Prof Staudt and his friends were sat
isfied with the decision. 1t is not the
amount of the punishment inflicted as
it is the maintenance of the principle
involved Only craven could live
i'll community of self-respecting people
with such brand or stigma against his
character Prof Staudt has been vim
dicated by an appeal to the law.
The attorneys for Prof. Blanton will
appeal the case to the district court.

TWO WAREHOUSES; AND OIL
co. PLANT DESTROYED.
POWDER AND DYNAMITE
On the Track-A Menace to the City
Duty of the City-Safeguards Must
Be Provided for the Future-Loss Is
Partly Covered by Insurance.

Within an hour yesterday Afternoon
the Crawford, Jenkins & Booth ware
house, the Lee Hardware Company's
warehouse and the Waters-Pierce Oh
Company on the Levee were reduced tc
lenders and ashes.
When discovered, the fire was in the
Crawford, Jenkins & Booth warehouse
and famed by the wind blowing at a
velocity of forty-six miles an hour, the
| fire spread swiftly to the Lee Hardware
Companys warehouse, and almost in an
instant the oil company's plant was i'll
fierce blaze With these three build
ings were destroyed the Red River Line
wharfboat, the Waters-Pierce stables
and number of cars standing on the
track.
The loss involved is aggregated at
$4,000, partly covered by insurance.
The department responded promptly
to the alarm and worked with efficiency,
for which they are entitled to the high
est commentator.
While the fire was burning there was
on the track car containing ten kegs
Of powder and fourteen cases of dylla-
mite
Unconscious of this menace to life and
property were the hremen and the thous-
ands of spectators who watched the co1-
hagration. The very thought of what
could have occurred is appalling, Such
recklessness is indefensible.
As there is no ordinance regulating
the quantity of powder and dynamite
that can be hauled into the city limits
by railway or other means of transpoE-
tation, it is time that such an ordinance
be adopted by the City Council, and then
be rigidly enforced.
The only ordinance in the book bear
ing on the subject was enacted May IS,
1880, and limits the keeping of powder
to not over so pounds, in tin canister or
canister for sale, etc. The ordinance of
December 10, 1885, referring to the sale
and use of fireworks, fire crackers, etc +,
has no bearing on the quantity of pow
der, dynamite and other explosives
which shall be brought in cars or other
vehicles.
This is a serious question and must
be settled right by the city authorities
