LIKES JOHN T. MICHEL FOR
GOVERNOR.

Among the gentlemen suggest
ed for the office of Governor we
note with pleasure the name Of the
popular and very efficient Secre-
tary of State. This popular gen.
tleman has been before the public
eye for many years, and during his
long tenure Of the office, which he
now fills so creditably, he has mad q
friends by the thousand all over
the State.
There are good reasons for this.
First Of all he complies fully with
the first requisite of a public Of
ficer-he is capable and he is hon
est. Secondly, he possesses the
.proverbial politeness Of the French
or those who descend from that
cultured race Of people. This, OF
itself. is a big card in the hands
of an ambitious gentleman, and
those who have been the recipient
Of favors at the hands Of Mr.. Nj
chel received them in manner
that stamped the donor with the
attributes Of the man Of the
world, of the public official who
was not inflated with his author
ity, and who discharged his pub
lie duties as the public servant
amendable to public censure as
the case might be
Mr.. Michel will be 4 strong
candidate, and we speak advised
ly when we predict that his can
didacy will grow with the days,
and it will be upheld by hosts of
friends in the four corners Of the
Stste-Avoyelles Enterprise.

ARE THOSE HEROES FOR
GOTTEN.

Twelve years ago last February,
in Havana harbor a muffled eX-
ploSion VISA heard; red flames
burst from the American battle
ship, Maine; the vessel shuddercd
and went down, carrying with her
the bodies Of brave fighting men.
The d saster plunged this nation
into the war with Spain, stirred
our patriotism to the bottom, and
imposed upon us new responsible
tiles as a world power.
Today the shattered hulk of the
ironclad disfigures the harbor,
marking the last resting place of
the unclaimed dead. Other heroes
who have fallen on the battlefield
Of Luzon, or who have been strik-
en- with fever on the lonely coasts
of Negroes and Samar, have been
gathered up and inferred honorab-
ly by a grateful Government in
the national cemetery at Arling-
ton.
But the Maine heroes lie forgot
ten in the mud of a foreign har-
Dor, and the American people for
whom they were willing to fight,
and for whom they died, have
practically done nothing in return.
1t is true that Congress made a
small appropriation, at the recent
session, more than twelve years af-
ter the disaster, to investigate and
report on the advisability Of rails
ing the ship. The engineers de-
clare the amount appropriated is
insufficient to accomplish any real
good, and the prospects are that
the preliminary work will be de-
layed another year or two.
The government owes tribute
Of respect to the men who, with
out a chance to defend themselves,
went down to heroes graves. a
tardy acknowledgment of our gra-
titude, in the shape Of strong
and manifested desire to raise the
good ship Maine and give the
noble men a Christian burial, is
at least due them.
Incidentlly, the raising Of the
Maine might finally solve a much
debated question, and determine
once and for all whether the ex-
plosion was caused by a submerged
mine or from other sources. Let
the truth be known. and the brave
men honored, no matter what is
disclosed. Monroe Star.

CROP CONDITION.

At last a week without rain, the

Sol is pouring down his most
fervent rays; hot IS no name for
it. This short period u dry

under the circumstances and will
mot affect the growth of cane un-
less a drought sets in which is
hardly possible at this season of
the year. Most came raisers are
satisfied with the situation and
seem quite optimistic. Those who
laid by early have fine crops OF
good height and color and give a
very promising appearance. The

God send to the rice planters who
are cutting rice with all the force
they can employ. Only sickles are
used, machinery being discarded
for the reason that machine
binds as it goes taking up green
grass and weeds with ripe grain,
which has a tendency to heat and
discolor the grain. SO the differ
ence IN cost of harvesting is more
than made up in the quality OF
the grain by the hand method of
cutting. Corn is being pulled ia
some places where it is dry enough,
VIZ ch shows fine yield of nice
sound grain, although the late
planted suffered much from rain
and weeds and grass it will make
some small seed stuff. Cow peas
stood the great test better than
was expected and considerable
pea hay will be made. A large
crop Of crab grass will be cut

THE SORT OF IMMIGRATION
WE NEED.

We are Of the opinion that the
South does not need more labor
ers, We already have too many
for the work there IS done. In
fact, one-half the men who do
farm work could do more than
all now do if properly equipped
and directed. We have too many
laborers and too many bosses y
and oversccrs and IDLE proprietors
already. What we need is more
| working owners; men who will
own land and direct the farming
| of it themselves. We need more
farming person and less by proxy.
We need men with some means
and much industry who will buy
land, give II their personal atten-
| ton and build comfortable rural
homes, but before these will come
in large numbers there must come
a change over public sentiment as
represented by the most prospe-
rous of our white population. The
farmers with small means who are
going by the thousands each year
! into the Canadian Northwest are
not going to the cold climate of a
foreign land IN preference to the
hospitable Southern climate OF
their own country for any other
reason than that the spirit which
always attracts immigrants calls
them, II is that spirit which says
to the desirable citizen; Come
among us, become one of us, share
fully with us the rights of Amcrl-
can citizenship, and join hands
with us in developing and build
ing up our common country.
The desirable immigrant responds
only to the call which assures HIM
full share and equal part in all
that constitutes the life OF a pros
porous and homogeneous rural
people. There must not be no
string" to the proposition, no
reservations, and no assumption
of prior or superior rights on the
part of any class or part OF the
populatlon.-Starkv.lle Miss
Progressive Farmer and Gazette.
If you have not registered, now

2. Rational, systematic cult

To again quote DR.. Mcdonald
1.-TWO two fundamental principles
il dry farming are namely, n deep
initial preparation of the ground,
and a constant shallow after cul-
|tivation. y
The United States recognizing
the great Importance Of education
in this system Of agriculture, has
established a Department of Dry
Farming. 1t probably began with
the appointment of Mr., Il. c. Chi
colt, who was professor of agrlcul-
tarc and geology in the South Da
kcta Agricultural College, a man
who had broad experience in dry
farming experimenting on the
Great Plains.
Several dry farming experiment
al stations have been established
among them that at Wollaston,
n. D.; at North Platte, Neh. at
Tays and at Garden City, Kan,
at Akron, Colo. at Amarillo, and
Dalkart, Tex and at Judith
Basin, Mont. These stations are
laboratories wherein plants and
soils are studied and experimente,'
upon and the information gained
is given out to the farmers.
Dry farming congresses, where
agriculturists from all over the
world gather, are held at given
dates at which time papers and dis
cussions do much to stimulate tie
interest in this growing industry.
