Last evening about six o'clock, w.
c. Hardie the expressman, suddenly
started on a downward career and did
not stop until he had touched bottom.
He was hauling load OF timbers
from one of the mills to Mrs. d. K.
warren's ranch. He drove along the
wharf. passed warren's Hall and then
turned to cross a disused bridge lead
Ing to the outbuildings on the War
rem farm. When he was about half
way over the bridge, the woodwork un
expectedly gave way, Hariie, load and
team dropped into the water. Fortu-
nately the tide was not high, or else
the whole outfit, would have been
thoroughly immersed. A number OF
men who were leaving the mills, OBJ
served the accident and they imme-
diateiy ran to Hardies assistance. The
horses were hemmed in between the
wagon and the frame work Of the
the bridge. After considerable diff
ficulty they were embarrassed, the OBJ
Srructing frame work sawed away and
the animals managed to struggle
through the water and mud to terra
frma. The tongue of the wagon and
a portion Of the harness was damaged
but luckily both Hardie and his team
suffered nothing worse than the duck

REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE
Will Henry Mccall Become a Candl
date for Governor?

New Orleans States: Chairman Frank
B. Williams of the Republican State
Central Committee was asked this morn
ing what, if any, arrangements had beer
made looking toward the placing of a
Republican State ticket in the field for
voting purposes at the forthcoming gu
bernatorial election. Mr., Williams said
that beyond stating tat the committee
was working hard to make up the slate,
he could not say anything.
Several names of first class men have
been placed at the disposition of the
committee, but our trouble is to pick the
most available men-the men that will
carry best in the city and State.
Mr.. Williams was told by the reporter
that the name of Mr.. Henry Mccall, at
present collector of the part, had been
mentioned by several prominent Repub-
lican leaders as likely man to head the
slate, and he replied:
why, that's a fact, now you mention
It. |, myself. have heard Mr.. McCall's
name mentioned frequently, and | think
hat he would make an ideal candidate.

Throwing a Chest" Injuries.

It cannot be repeated too often that
the more that appalling system OF chest
swelling was practiced the greater was
the invalding for circulatory diseases
the Foot guards, who were more "set
up" than the line, always heading the
list for invading for these diseases.
And who will say of the guards that
they were originally defective?
1t was hopeless to expect men to be
content and not to take any oppertu-
nifty to quit the army who felt the in
ju,y to health being inflicted on them.
They were taught to regard the dilat-
ed. rigid chest as essential, that sol
diering could not be thought of without

and popularity was interference with

GRADUALLY DEVELOPING.

The main issues in the State cam.
paign for the Governorship are being
developed gradually One of these is
sues is the fiscal agency question. If it
be possible for banks to cooperate in
directly, through individuals, to control
politics with some special end or inter
est in view, this same power may be
directed against the rights and privileges
enjoyed by the people. A direct Or in
direct aggregation of banking interests
to control the fiscal agency is a menace
to the people We should not forget the
power OF the Louisiana Lottery which
dominated the politics of the State until
overthrown after the greatest political
contest ever waged in the United States.
1t may be said that Wilkinson and
Jastremski have announced in no uncer-
tain words their opposition to system
which operates against the States wei
fare. At this an incidental reference to
this important issue is necessary.
