LOUISIANA BAR ASSOCIATION.

The presence OF the representatives OF
the Louisiana Bar Association in annual
convention assembled in this city is a
compliment which can not be too highly
appreciated by the community.
In the Bar Association is reflected the
the highest legal talent in the State, a
profession through which is conserved
the basis of good government in the adj
ADMINISTRATION and the enforcement of the
law with equity and justice.
In these annual conventions is given
opportunity for the expression of views
on matters of practical concern to the
profession and in reciprocal good fell
lowship
Since the Louisiana Bar Association
has programmed to not con6ne its an
nual sessions to New Orleans, there
will be aroused a greater interest on the
part of the people of the State to enter
tam these gentlemen whose influence is
all-powerful in the affairs OF men.
It is pleasing to say that the session
held in Shreveport has been gratifying
and successful from every point of
view, which is great satisfaction to
this community.
A delightful entertainment, banquet
in the Inn Cafe, closed this gathering
of gentlemen who return to their homes
with the best wishes of the citizens of
Shreveport.

THE OHIO COMPROMISE.

The New Orleans States says: ct
seems that the much talked Of struggle
in Ohio between the Roosevelt and anti
Roosevelt forces, the latter under the
leadership of Foraker, which few days
ago the country was informed would be
fight to the death has finally petered
down into compromise and an agree
ment concerning division OF the Offices.
Secretary Taft is to be accepted as the
Republican candidate for president and
Senator Foraker is to be reelected to
the Senate and retain control of the Re-
publican State machine. Not single
person is to be eliminated. Not a
single hide is to be stretched on the
fence to dry and not a scalp is to dan
gle from the lodge poles of the oppos-
ing wigwans. The red clouds of war
nave been dissipated and the sun of
peace shines brightly in Ohio. Brother
is clasping brother in affectionate en-
brace.
Indeed this political situation is love-
ly: it is too utterly utter.

PROFESSIONAL AND EXPERT
OPINIONS AND COM
MON SENSE.

Who can agree when experts disa-
gree?
Is it not singular that men noted in
their profession entertain, at times,
opinions and views as divergent as are
the poles?
Perhaps it is from this wide conflict
that common sense may be drawn.
In the Thaw case one set of experts
declared and proved that the defendant
was insane, while another set insisted
and did prove Thaw's sanity, and there
are some people who are firmly inn
pressed with the notion that the experts
and not Thaw were laboring from the
effects of brain storms.
Perhaps it is professional that experts
shall not agree. Perhaps if professional
men and experts did agree, their pro-
fession would soon be lacking in in
terest and be profitless.
For instance, take the experts on
bugology. One set insists that the raw
ages of the boil weevil may be minim-
lied with paris freen, even if all the
boil weevils be not killed. while another
set, presumably as we'll informed, per-
sists in the declaration that the appli-
cation of paris green to the cotton plant
will be destructive to the plant and not
TO the boil weevil.
In the face of such contention of
contradiction, the planters and the farm
ers may well exclaim: What shall we
dos What can be do to be saved
Fortunately, common sense, the rarest
OF all sense, may be applied in con-
seryative and practical reaching of
happy medium which is suggested by
demonstrated results. Common sense
would dictate trial of such remedy as
gives promise of relief, and, if it be
paris green, then let the application be
made intelligently according to the rule
Of those who have secured success from
experiments.
In the contention by experts, thous-
ands of dollars have been expended in

CARELESS of experts.
Should the planters and the farmers
sit idly by and permit this pest to de-
stroy their crop because Of the diverg-
ent views of experts?
Ii is gratifying to note that at a re-
cent meeting held in the Board of Trade
room in this city, where several hum
sired planters and farmers were assem-
bled, and after full and free discussion
of the question in all its phases, it was
agreed to adopt the Marston method of
poisoning the boil weevil with Paris
gree. This was a practical evidence of
common sense. II the attendants had
