WHAT THE PAPERS ARE SAYING.

Houston Chronicle: Civilization depends
on the brotherhood of man.
Philadelphia North American: The
shadow of drink usually lengthens into the
night of sorrow and suffering for the inno-
cent.
Houston Chronicle: Literature is doubly
a gift; the power to produce it is gift
from heaven and the product is gift to
the world.
Baltimore Sun: Ever since Appomattox
the figure of Lee has been looming up
larger and larger with the years, until to-
day he is recognized as one of the greatest
leaders of the English-speaking race. He
typifies all that was best of the old South
and is the inspiration of all that is finest
in the new. His great genius as a military
commander is at last universally acknowl-
edged; but it has been eclipsed by his
personality as the knightliest man of his
time.
Nashville Christian Advocate: We can
not make out why the press associations
think the world SO intensely interested in
New York. Our country has had in late
months its full share of murders and other
revolving crimes, heaven knows. Fortu-
nately, we are allowed to cease thinking of
most of them after few days. But let a
murder be committed in New York and we
have to submit for weeks to narrowing
details, pictures, interviews, detectives
theories, etc., ad nauseam. Likewise of
divorces in the "high life" of that giddy
and tiresome city. Cannot the editors of
our provincial papers-who mostly
succeed better than those of the "metro-
polls" in seeing beyond their own noses
give US relief by cutting off this stream of
slush now served up to us every morning
with our breakfasts?

THE STATE PRESS.

Colfax Chronicle: There are many peo-
pie who are slaves to prejudice, and they
will remain slaves until they become strong
enough to overcome their prejudice.
Shreveport Caueasion: So ridiculous is
the plea of prosperity attending the saloon
that any one possessed of the brain of a
peafowl may marvel at the stupidity of the
suggestion.
Claiborne Guardian-J Journal The game
law with its peristalic commission, seems
to be almost deserted. You don't find a
legislator who is willing to father the misfit,
ill-jointed, uncalled for piece of statutory
work. 1t wears the curse of the people.
Anathema maranatha is their judgment.
There is no one to speak kind word for it
in these parts. Like the wanderer in the
land of Nod, its hand is against every man
and every man is against it.
ST. Helena Echo: If man has a $50
bull pup he will look after it carefully and
not let it run around at night over town.
But ii he has boy it is different, He is
turned loose at tender age to 60 to the
devil, and the people wonder where all the
careless, ragged street buns, loafers, dead
beats, gamblers and drunkards come from
each decade. They are terminated from
our homes and flung broadcast on the
streets. 1t may be that your boy is making
growth in that direction. At all events
the boy ought to be given an equal show
ing with the bull pup.
Alexandria Town Talk: The Town Talk
utters its oft repeated warning that if the
liquor interests wish to keep their doors
open, they must assist in banishing the
dive, and closing up disorderly and dis
reputable saloons. They must stand for
law and order, or the people of this State
will yet wipe out the entire business under
the pressure of disgrace and Indignation at
the failure to secure wise and efficient liquor
regulation. The liquor interests are not
in so much danger from prohibition in
certain parts, as they are from the follies,
lawlessness, and senselessness of a certain
section of the saloon element.
Louisiana Democrat: Advocates of pro-
hibition and local option laws assert that
the enactment of such laws decreases the
sale and consumption of liquor and the
opponents of such laws just as strongly
assert they do not. All doubt upon the
question will probably be set at rest by the
official statement of the Treasury Depart
ment. The figures showa decrease of be-
tween four and five million barrels of beer
in 1908. That means billion pints less
liquor drunk in 1908 than in 1908 than in
1907. That decrease is not, perhaps, 50
great as temperance reformers expected,
but it is a very decided decrease all the
same, and one that is all the more sugges-
tive because of the persistent attempts at
illegal selling and the facilities for securing
liquor in the dry territory through the
operations of the express companies. 1t
all indicates that the temperance move
ment is a very real thing.

Hallam: Perhaps the intellectual ener-
gies of mankind can never remain station
airy; and q nation that ceases to produce
original and inventive minds, born to adj
vance the landmarks Of knowledge or skill,
will recede from step to step, till it loses
even the secondary merits of imitation and
industry.
The Bossier banner. [volume] (Bellevue, Bossier Parish, La.) 1859-1952, 1909-08-19

Bishop 0. P. Fitzgerald: In the long
run the right side will surely prevail, but
on their way to that glorious goal good men
from time to time must be willing to stand
with the minority. And the best men NAV
be depended on to do this very thing.

Huxley: A liberal education makes a
man in harmony with nature. He will
make the best of her and she of him. They
will get on together rarely, she as his ever
beneficent mother, he as her mouth piece,
her conscious self, her minister and in
terpreter.

If the way of the wilful transgressor i:
truly made hard, prohibition will eventually
prohibit.

THE ONE TALENT MAN.-The one-talented
many are really of far more importance
than the few of genius. Forit is by means
of the great company of mediocre minds
that the chief work and happiness of the
world must be maintained. "It seems very
CERTAIN wrote Phillips Brooks, "that the
world is to grow better and richer in the
future, not by the magnificent achieve
ments of the highly gifted few, but by the
patient faithfulness of the one talented
many" 1t is by common men and women
realizing the Importance of common and
lowly tasks that the welfare of every home
and the general we'll being of mankind are
to be promoted. And none the less is it by
these that Gods wise and blessed purposes
to the race are to be completed. Let US,
then, bear in mind that usefulness, success.
happiness and the divine blessing depend
not upon our talents, many or few, brilliant
or dull, but upon our wise, patient, earnest
use of such capacities as we have. "The
race is not. to the swift or the battle to the
strong" but to the faithful and deserving.

"SHOOEO" COW RfTAl|iTES
Road Rights of Women and Bossies
Form the Basis of Legal
Enigma.

Has a COW as much right on a public
highway as a woman?
And has a woman a right to interfere
with a law-abiding COW on a public high
way2
And if she does is the cow justified in
protecting her own rights to the extent of
Ousting the woman, almost fracturing her
ribs and otherwise injuring herr
These fine points of law and road ETH
quette are under the Amusement of Stan
ley A. Hanks, justice OF the peace, as the
result of a hearing in his court yester
day. Mrs. Grace ID. Christensen, who
lives just outside the city on State street
is suing J. Z. Kelly for 1929 damages for
injuries sustained few days ago when
Kelly's bovine wandered along the road
past her residence.
Mrs. Christensen says that she "shooed"
the COW with her apron and was imme-
diately pinned against the fence by the
bovine. whose dignity was outraged
Plaintiffs ribs were bent, her arms were
bruised her back was sprained and her
nervous system underwent a shock from
which she will be months recovering, ac-
cording to her complaint. The point Of
law to be decided by Magistrate Hanks
is, whether or not the COW was acting
within her rights in being upon the road
without the chaperonage of her owner.

ing from the company for work On
March 8, 1897, A. r. Aston called upon
NJ. A. Pond. chief clerk of the division

voucher to Aston, who took it immedi-
ately to Kuster, still claiming to be Ker-
nan, and the saloon man cashed the
check.
Kuster then sent the check to the Nc
COrnick bank. but the Short Line official
had learned he had been duped and
stopped payment.
Judge Ritchie holds the Short Line Of
