WEATHER AND CROPS
Too Much Raa Except in Oklahoma
and Texas, Where Drouth Has Pre-
vailed-Corn Prospects Favorable.

Pieayune July II: The past week
has been period of almost constant
rains in the central and eastern portions
of the cotton belt, except towards the
last two days of the week, when better
conditions prevailed. In the western
section of the belt, particularly in Texas
and Oklahoma, there has been less
moisture than the crop needs, although
showers have fallen ever the greater
part of Texas, greatly relieving the sit
nation. Texas, however, appears to need
"a general and soaking rain to put farm
ers above the chance of worry for the
future of their crops.
As a result of the constant rains in
the central and eastern sections of the
belt the crops in most districts are bad
ly in the grass and are developing more
weed than fruit Farmers have been
unable to do much if any field work,
and speil of dry, fair weather is sadly
needed. Georgia and Alabama seem to
be the worst off in this respect In
Mississippi and Louisiana the rains
have given the boil weevils new lease
of life and much complaint is now heard
on this score
While the damage done is not gener-
ally believed to be beyond repair, it is
undeniable that the tone is more pessi-
mistic than it was, and there is little
hope now entertained of the bumper
crop that was regarded as possible a
few weeks ago.
The corn crop prospects seem to be
favorable almost everywhere and good
crop of that most important cereal now
seems assured. The rains, which have
been prejudicial to the cotton farmers,
have been favorable to the ricec rop,
and good progress is now reported from
all portions of the rice belt
The sugar section has been visited by
superabundance of rain, particularly
the river parishes. There is no report
that the rains have done harm, but
planters are now wishing for a dry
spell, SO as to be able to lay by that por-
ton of the crop ready for that final pro-
cess. The sentiment throughout the su.
gar district is hopeful of good yield
particularly in southwestern Louisiana
where thee rop is admitted to be in fine
condition, with considerable increase
in acreage.

OPPOSITION PETITION
Against the Proposed Commission
~ Form of Government.

I
Copies of a petition opposing the pro-
posed commission form of government
is being circulated for signatures The
plea sor signatures is that the proposed
commission form is strictly in the in
terests of the Prohibitionists. This ap-
peal 20 prejudice is ridiculous. 1t is an
insult to the intelligence of any man of
common sense. The opposition, be-
lieved 70 be silent, is becoming manifest,
The people in favor of change from q

tenn that viii lead to government of

basis will aot sign the opposition petit

At this time the test is to secure the

pie may determine if they favor or are

the lamented McEnery lay cold in death,
it was agreed that Larnbremont should
not have machine, that the only ma
chine permissible was the Sanders ma
chine, his patent and exclusive right on
it being duly recognized by the trio as
against all comers, on the ground, we
assume, that he invented it and that he
alone discovered it.
But enough. Is it necessary that
Sanders should hold Oh to the office Of
Governor and United States Senator at
one and the same time? Is it 1eces-
sary that he should do so in order to
put into operation my policies?
Every intelligent man knows that it
is not Every sensible imam knows that
it is pretense and fshanl, that it is
an excuse to enable him to appoint the
officers created under his direction and
control, so that when lhe offers again
for the United States Senate that he
will have in every parish and village in
the State an office holder, bound and
pledged to his supports
But what are you g9ing to do about
it? Just wait and see what answer the
