Of graft. It gives the Commissioner power to

HOW THEY EXPLAIN IT.

Yet, If you should ask police inspector who

not he owns il he viii nearly always answer
NO" He viii probably say that il belongs TO
his wife, who inherited fortune from some rich
uncle; or his sister, who Was fortunate in invest

. books Of the Tax Department viii show that IN
nOt single instance does the name OF a police,
Inspector appear. In many instances, however
the names OF wives. sisters or other relatives Of
police officials recorded.

The Extra Session of the Legis-
latuPe.

The action of Governor Blanch-
ard in calling an extra session of
the General Assembly at this
juncture, when Mr.. Sanders, in
all of his public utteranees and in
the address issued by him to the
voters aligned himself in favor of
these reforms, has anything but
the appearance of sincerity on
the part of the Governor. 1t
certainly appears as if the neces-
sity existed prior to the meeting
of the two regular and one extra
sessions which have been held
during his incumbency of the ex-
ecutiye Office, and no recommend
atoms of that kind appear in any
of his previous messages.
He says he has been considering
this action for a month or more.
Was it because the seventeen
ward leaders of New Orleans de-
clared their fealty to Lieutenant
Governor Sanders? From the
expressions published by some of
the journals who oppose Mr..
Sanders, it appears that they inn
agine it "coup d'etat," one that
will disorgsnize Sanders support.
But they will discover that such
action, if that is the reason, will
exert contrary effect, because it
will soIidify the support of Mr..
Sanders who has stood for reduc-
ton in the expenses of assessing
and collecting the State revenues,
the payment of the State debt.

Obituary.

On the morning of Oct, % 1907,
as the beautiful rising sun was
casting a glory over the gray earth
the soul of little NJ. A. Buckner
took its flight to regions above.
She had been sick but few days
and ali that kind physicians and
loving hands could do was done
to alleviate the suffering of the
little one but to no avail until
God sent his messenger to bear
her away to Pardise to. await the
coming of the loved ones here.
Not in anger or wrath was she
taken but in divine pity and love.
What now seems a crushing
sorrow will prove a blessing.
Gladly would that mother have
taken her child in her arms and
stopped the grave if she could,
but she could not for the far
reaching eye of God saw some
thing infinitely better.
Only three years and eleven
months did she remain on earth
to cast gladness and sunshine.
But is not Heaven nearer and
dearer? Is there not now, some
thing more than ever, to work
for? To live for? Dear mother,
if you could but get a glimpse of
your child in Paradise you would
meekly and willingly bow your
head and say, Thy will be done.
