WOULD BE AN EXAMPLE.

The article following is from the True
Democrat. published in St. Francisville.
of which Mrs. Leake is the editor and
proprietor, and is submitted without
comment:
In his speech at Lake Providence
Hon. Jared Y. Sanders used the fol-
lowing appeal:
Give General Jastremski and Colonel
Wilkinson the men, but give me the
women and girls. Give me the married
women and they will take care of hus-
bands. Hold prayer meetings with your
fathers, brothers and sweethearts: tell
them J. Y. Sanders is candidate for
Governor.
Il want to be Governor of Louisiana
because | am young man; all my flu
|ture is before ME, | have lau liable am
bition / want to set an example for
the young men of this State
The sort of example Mr.. Sanders
will make does not appeal to the women
of Louisiana. If he gets the position it
must be on some other ground than this,
as the married women and girls--God
bless them--have much higher ideals
than Mr.. Sanders seems to think they
have.
Perhaps, since Governor Blanchard
was given the Governorship by the
|over-hasty voters of Louisiana to round
out his career the present hopeful
Lieutenant Goernor will be treated with
equal consideration, and given chance
to further his "laudable ambition. Just
90 forward on this, J. Y, and see if you
can win.

is erroneous. The judgment is set aside
and the injunction dissolved. The Court
will not, by its present decree, adiujge
a corporation exempt from taxation +
future years. Conditions existing in
one year may be entirely different i'll TIE
next
g. Conditions existing i'll the year
1906 did not justify plaintiffs claim for
an exemption from taxation for that
year The creosoting process OH which
its right to exemption was predicatei,
was applied to cross ties already exist
ing as articles of wood, and which it
had purchased from company which
had already made them. The process
in question was not creative in charac-
ter, but merely preservative.
For the reasons herein assigned it is
hereby ordered, adjudged and decreed
that the judgment appealed from be and
the same is hereby annuled, avoided
and reversed, that the injunction which
issued herein be dissolved and plain

GREATEST EVER KNOWN
Immense Railroad Combination
Is In Formation.
WILL SURPASS ALL YET.
Keystone of This Stupendous System
Is to Be the Panama Canal, and 1t
Will Traverse the Most Congested
Sections of the Union.

Chicago. May 2s.-While the eyes
OF the whole country have been cen.
tered on E. Fl. Hartman as the master
manipulation of the railroad world, says
a dispatch to the Inter Ocean from
Washington, a greater and more ex
tensiye combination of railroad inter.
ests has been in process of perfection
until now the plans are matured for
the public declaration of this gigantic
merger. More than $1,000, 10000 cap
ital is involved, and the mileage Of
the new system will extend practical
ly from the most northern part of the
Atlantic coast to the gulf ports with
a network of tracks gridironing New
England, the east and middle west and
tapping the greatest freight producing
territory in the world.
This colossal merger, when execut
ed, will be known as the Greater Penn
sylvania System. 1t will embrace
practically all the railroad mileage In
New England, together with Pennsyl,
vania lines east and west of Pitts
burg, with through connections to
New Orleans and Mobile on the gulf
Instead projecting a transcontinental
line from ocean to ocean to keystone
of the new system will be Panama
canal. Traversing as 1t does the most
congested sections of the United
Statns and reaching the great indus
trial and manufacturing centers east
of the Mississippi. 1t will afford an
outlet to the products of this vast sec
ton, to all PORTS of the Atlantic
north of the Potomac and also give
them direct route to the orient via the
gulf and new isthmain canal when
completed
Charles S. Mellen is credited with
being the master mind which. con
ceived this vast project. although it
Is understood this consolidation was
under consideration before the death

SEVEN SAMPLES FROM FIVE
WAGONS ADULTERATED.
A CHEMICAL ANALYSIS
By Michael Bernstein Sustains the Re
port of DIR. J. F. Griffin, Chemist of
the Board of Health-The Names of
the Dairymen Selling the Milk

On his rounds yesterday morning,
George Woodward collector of milk
samples, secured eight samples from
eight different cans i'll five milk wagons
which were analysed by DR.. J. F. Griffin.
Of the eight samples, four contained
formaldehyde "a poison used as disin-
fectant in infectious diseases.
In order TO eliminate any chance of
error DR.. Griffin submitted the samples
examined to the well known and highly
esteemed druggist, Mike Bernstein, who
is a recognized chemist of great skill,
who, after careful examination, en-
dorsed the findings of Dr. Griffin.
Seven OF the samples of milk exam
med and containing formaldehyde were
as follows:
One from a wagon of c. c. Herndon's
dairy, driven by negro woman.
Two samples from two wagons of ].
r. Herndon, Grovedale Dairy, one driv-
ell by white man and the other by a
negro.
Two samples from a wagon of dairy
No. 10, driven by the owner. Theodore
Nouges
Two samples from the wagon from
Gladstone dairy, driven by the owner,
p. LaCrout.
The supply of milk for Shreveport
consumption comes from about thirty
five diaries, and unless the milk is free
from adulteration, if it be not pure and
wholesome if it be contaminated with
formaldehyde or any poisonous or pre-
sentative substance, the consumers, par
|ticularly the children, must suffer from
the evil results which are certain to fol-
low.
Against the individuals named charges
have been preferred, and these cases
will be called for trial in Judge Webs
court next Friday morning.
The Board Of Health will be repre-
scented by their attorney, Hon. Ben
Lichenstein.
The penalty is a revocation of their
licenses and fine of $Ioo for each Of
fender if proven guilty.
There can be no excuse for this con-
tamination of milk, and its discontainu-
ance was urged by DR.. Blanchard, pres
ident of the Board of Health, in cir
cular letter addressed to every dairynan
supplying milk i'll Shreveport.

FIFTEEN CENTS COTTON.

Birmingham Ledger: There is some
thing in the air that savors of IS cents
for the next cotton crop. The bad
weather and that frost cut off many
fields in the best part of the cotton coun-
try, and there was not enough seed for
all of it to be planted again.
That is the foundation for the faith
