HIGHEST FOOTBALL PRIZE
Nebraska Lad Achieves The PnnaeI. OF
Football Fame Hoped For Since
Eniering Academy

Although he never told The Capt.
ital, and did not even breathe il to
his most intimate friend Dolly"
Dalton since he entered the Naval
Academy and was sent into the big
Harvard game while still a plebe,
has hoped the time would come when
he would be captain of a bunch of
Navy football fighters.
To the very great satisfaction of
his friends not only in the brigade
but out in "Crabtown" Dolly" has
achieved his cherished desire. Last
night his mates on the squad unani.
mouslv elected him 20 succeed T.
Starr King as captain of the MILDLY
team next year.
A great deal has been said about
Dalton's "temperamental peculiarI-
ties" during the past season, but
nothing has been said or written-or
will be-against his ability as a
football player, not only of skill and
ability but willingness to work for
the good of his team, and as was said
today on all sides, he rated" the
place and the captaincy could not
have gone to q man more worthy of
the job.
That Dolly" will take up his job
with full realization of it's response
bilities and make good" is the uni
versal opinion. The Middies' new
leader has played at halfback ever
since his plebe year, showing decided
Improvement with each season. And
this year he was the mainstay in
ground gaining for the Middies, be-
ing a heavy line plunger, besides a
strong defensive player.
In addition, he is regarded as one
of the best punters of the East, ard
his work in this line was one of the
features of the late Army-Navy
game. He is good placement kick
er, though his toe did him wrong in
six of the seven chances in the recent
big game In the 80 points scored
by the Middies this season, Dalton is
credited with about three fourths of
them. Dalton is 81 years old and is
5 feet ii inches in height, and
weighs lS0 pounds.
AS captain of the Navy team, Dali
ton succeeds man who deserves un
usual credit. "Starr" King, although
bunch of bum circumstances kept
him from getting into the "big"
game and coming back from Quaker
town flushed with victory to hear the
deserved cheers of his mates in the
brigade, as did Hugh" Douglas
and others who have gone before, has
made good in every way. Typhoid
fever laid him up just when he was
getting to the most glorious part of
his football career and when victory
over the doughboys was within his
grasp, and although a most efficient
substitute was put into his place at
tackle, his absence was felt py every
man in the brigade and on the team
during all of those glorious sixty min
utes on Franklin Field.
Though he has not yet got it, King
earned and deserves the IN" and the
even more precious star, as his per-
sonality did much toward crystaiz-
ing Navy Spirit" and helping to
down the Army. He still has a
chance for more glory on the crew
next spring and on all sides the
hope is expressed that he will be
out and well in time to take his
place in the eight.

THE POLICE JURY AND THE RE
DUCTTON OF TAXATION.

It is gratifying to note the decrease
IN taxation as proposed by the Police
jury, whose budget for the year 1910
should be perused by every citizen OF
the city and parish. It is true that this
reduction is made possible by the in
crease in taxable valuations and by close
business financing. 1t is also an indica-
kion of prosperity and gives the direct
and emphatic denial to the class who
predicted that the city and the parish
would go to shoef without the license
from the saloon and the beer dives.
Instead of having wrought ruin and
disaster, the reverse is being obtained,
and men. working men who squandered
ther earnings in the open saloons and
The dives and permitted their families
to struggle in want, are being numbered
with the contented and well to do of
the community. The wages they earned
instead of going into the NAV of the
saloon and the beer dives goes to their
families and is spent for the useful
needs of life.
The Police jury may be commended
without stint for their able management
of the affairs OF the Parish of Caddo.

BEER DRINKING IN GERMANY.

BEER DRINKING IN GERMANY
Webster Signal: Germany has Ions
been pointed to by the advocates of beer
drinking as a country where almost ev-
erybody drinks light beer without evil
effects. But now Emperor William has
issued a solemn warning on the subject
to the young men of his empire. He
tells them that the drink habit is Sc
riously injuring the individual young
men and the nation as a whole with the
result that both are falling behind for
eigners, especially Americans and the
English, who have more sensible ideas
regarding drink by youths. Nobody has
ever accused the Emperor of being a
temperance crank" and he views the
matter wholly in the light of effective
ness in the battle of life

A LIVELY TILT.

From all accounts the tilt III the
House of Representatives on Wednesday
night between Representatives Atkinson
of Lincoln and Representative Hen
riques of Orleans was as lively as could
have been devised. There were ex-
changes of words which were tart and
vitriolic The furry arose over the
criticism of Governor Sanders by Mr..
Atkinson in connection with the Smith
anti-lobby bill. 1t was shown that Gov
ernor Sanders had given his pledge to
suppress the lobby, but he had not only
failed to keep this promise but was the
ally of the chief of the lobbyists.
1t may be said that preceding this par
iamentary clash Representative Smith
of Caddo had presented in an utian-
swerable argument the evil influence of
the lobby in the SUPPRESSION of which
Governor Sanders had committed him
self, but now he and his friends were
standing as its champions and defend
ing it.
During the debate Mr.. Atkinson
charged that the defeat of the income
tax was due to the influence of the lob
by and declared boldly that Hunter C..
Leal<e is that influence. He is here year
after year. His employers would not
keep him here if he did not have that
influence He is too smart man to
stay here if he did not have influence
If he would comply with the law there
would be no objection to his remaining
here"
Il say" continued Representative At
hnson. his voice now ringing with in
dignation, that lobbying has had its in
fuence in this Legislature. | say that
the opposition to this bill is due to that
influence, just as the condition of the in
come tax Amendments is due to the COM
bined influence of Hunter c. Leake and
the Chief Executive of the State. When
the income tax amendment came up, we
saw the influence of the Chief Execu-
tive combined with the forces that rep
resented the interests and not the peo
pie Now, then, the presumption is that
the secretary of the Governor does his
duty. The presumption is that the sec
rotary of the Governor stands on the
floor lobbying. It is time for the House
TO strike back, and l favor the passage
of the bill.
Unfortunately the bill was defeated,
but there is universal dissatisfaction
of duty well done and in glory for
Representatives Smith and Atkinson for
their contentious in forcing an issue
which two years since the Governor
championed enthusiastically.
What has caused the Governor to
reach the conclusion that the lobby
which he condemned in vigorous words
in 1908 should not be disturbed in 1910?
Has Governor Sanders been confirmed
in his present view of this evil by and
through the influence of Hunter C.
Leake, the recognized chief lobbyist of

FORECAST OF STORMS TO CROSS

THE DROUTH, ITS EFFECTS
The Drouth VIII Prevail in the Ohio,

1eys-Will Damage Corn and Oats.
Next Disturbance June % to p.

copyrighted 1910 by W. T. Foster
Washington, June II.-Last bulletin
gave forecasts of disturbance to cross
the continent IS to 10, warm wave Il
to Is, cool wave II to 2I. This will be-
more than usual, severe disturbance
but with less force than that of ? to g.
The drouth, that will be damaging the
crops about that time, will have small
check by this storm as rains will give a
little relief Then the drouth will re-
sumo control of crop conditions.
The next disturbance will reach Pa
cihc coast about p, cross Pacific slope
by close of %, great central valleys %
to 20, eastern states n. Warm wave
will cross Pacific slope about 22, great
central valleys "a, eastern sections 20.
Cool wave will cross Pacific slope about
IS, great central valleys p, the eastern
states 20.
Temperatures of this disturbance will
average above normal and rainfall below
normal. The force of the disturbance
will not be great and drouth conditions
will attract general attention.
The next rain of this disturbance will
be about the Great Lakes and in Canada
Drouth will prevail in the Ohio valleys,
the Mississippi valleys and the Missouri
valleys
The drouth in the sections named will
bring serious damage to corn and oats.
In the Southern States the oats crop will
be almost mature before the worst part
of the June drouth takes effect, but in
middle ATTITUDES, near line drawn from
Philadelphia to Manitoba, and within
$50 miles of that line, the oats will be in
bloom and in that stage of maturity
where drouth will do most damage.
l do not expect great failure in the
oats crop. In some sections it will be
good, but as whole the damage will be
SO great that | expect oats to go to soc
at Chicago Therefore | advise farmers
to sell no oats, old or new, till prices
reach SOC at Chicago.
The June drouth will strike the corn
crop in tender spot, and great dam
age will result. By the end of June /
expect corn to reach zoe at Chicago, and
farmers should sell no more corn till
the effects of the June drouth are
known.
The June drouth will also damage cot
ton, but producers have sold their cot
ton and my advice can do them but lit
tie good unless they may cultivate for
drouth conditions
My calculations, based on weather re-
cords for seventy-fve years, clearly in
dictate this drouth, and besides this Il
submit that no one will remember two
great oat crops in consecutive years.
The 1909 oat crop was enormous all
over the world, and that alone should
indicate that the 1910 crop will be much
less.
The farmers still hold some surplus
of the 1900 corn crop of high grade
They sold their soft corn and kept their
early and best corn. | am of opinion
hey will get, before this years crops
are made, 75c at Chicago for their corn.
