THE MESSAGE AT A GLANCE
FOR THE READER IN A
HURRY.

In opening, the Governor says
the boil weevil has affected Lou
isiana's prosperity, but diversifi-
cation is bringing rapid readJus-
ment as shown by corn crop OF
over 100000 bushels. State
encouragement Of the consumr-
ton Of rice and inducements to
capital are strongly urged.
In spite of the heavy demands
on the treasury the State has been
kept on cash basis. Floods and
the boil weevil kept assessments
down. The financial showing,
however, is gratifying.
The 1909 storm and demands OF
the Normal and other in
situations rendered impossible
| any retirement Of the State
debt. If no disaster occurs and
appropriations are kept in bounds
some of it can be reduced before
maturity. The Legislature is ask
ed to provide for liquidation of
the 11,10S,30O bonded debt, due
in 1914. The Governor believes a
lower rate. of interest can be OBJ
tanned.
. Two years splendid progress in
public education is shown. Lou
isiana is paying it's superintend-
ents the highest of any Southern
State. The standard of the teach
ing corps has been materially
raised. Nine schools are teaching
agriculture. Five thousand boys
have been enrolled in corn Clubs.
The high schools have almost
doubled in number.
The Legislature is asked to ere
ate State Rating Commission. as
recommended by the Board Of
Trade, as a protection against in
surance abuses.
The work of the travelling audi
tor is warmly commended and ap-
preparation is asked for proper
corps of assistants.
Land reverting to the State for
non-payment Of taxes should be-
come part Of the public domain,
and the U. S. surveyor generals
office located at Baton Rouge.
Extension of time is recon-
mended to allow persons entitled
to do so to take advantage Of Acts
IS and Sc of 1900, relative to
M'Enery script. Authority and
assistance are asked for the at
torney general to recover for the
State all such lands as may not
be confirmed.
The people are congratulated on
their increased freedom from
floods, due to the effectiveness Of
the levee system. The General
Assembly is asked to give special
attention to the protection of the
section subject to overflow from
the lower Atchafalaya district.
Adjustment of tolls on the
West End Shell Road and abolish
ment of the Crop Pest Commas
sion are recommended.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

Washington. d. c. 13.-W
though the friends of waterways
are asserting that the President
will sign the river and harbor ap-
preparation bill, there is no de-
nying the fact that considerable
uneasiness prevails among the
members Of the Rivers and Har-
bors Committee Of the House and
the Commerce Committee OF the
Senate. over the repeated rumors
that President Taft will veto the
bill unless three OF four para
graphs Of the bill are eliminated
inconference. These particu ar
sections provide for projects,
neither passed upon nor recon-
mended by the Board of Army
Engineers. and which under the
circumstances. is giving The con
ferees some trouble.
The National Rivers and Har-
bors Congress during its entire
life has insisted that no proJeca
should nave consideration n a
river and harbjr bill unless il
had the approval and rec5mnnn-
daticn of TIE Engineer Corps Of
the Army and It has made lis
campaign Of education along these
lines. 1t is thought by both
Chairman Alexander Of the House
Committee and Senator. Nelson Of
the Commerce Committee that an
agreement can be reached on the
items in question and that the
bill will go to the President in a
way that will be entirely salts
factory to him.
in this connection, it is thought
that Senator Burton will not make
any further fight on the bill with
the projects eliminated to which
he Called attention in his two
days sp-tch in the Senate in
antagonism Of the "piece-meal"
appropriations as he characterized
some features of the measure. One
thing is certain that the bill in
its entirety is the most scientif-
cally drawn bill which has ever
passed the Congress of the Unit
ed States providing the sinews for
improving the rivers, harbors and
canals of this country.

A NATIONAL DISGRACE.
United States Leads All the World
in Number Of Murders. I.

United States Leads All the World
in Number Of Murders.
That the number of criminal homi-
cides in the United States each year is
practically forty-three times greater
than in Canada and eight times great
err than in Belgium, which has the
greatest number of any European coun-
try; that in the United States the av-
erage criminal serves but seven years
of life sentence, and that at the pres.
ent time only about one murderer in
every seventy-four is punished, were
statements in an address delivered by
DR.. Andrew b. White, former president
of Cornell University and former am
oassador to Germany and Russia. He
said:
The number of felonious homicides
per year per million population for
various countries follows. Canada, 8;
Germany, 4 to 5; England and Wales.
10 to Ii; France, IA to Is; Belgium,
| 16; United States, more than 1873.
These figures are based on an average
taken fer eight years.
1T seems impossible that on one
side of an imaginary line homicide
could be so much more prevalent than
on the other, as in the case of Canada
and the United States. But the reason
is that on one side law prevails and
not chicanery, and that on the other
side has taken place breakup in the
administration of criminal law.
by far the greatest of all causes is
1.-The fact that the administration OF
criminal law has become simply a
game. A trial is game between two
or three lawyers; the whole thing has
become very much farce"

TEMPEST IN A TEAPOT.
How a Girl and Her Photograph Led
to Two Courts-martial.

How Girl and Her Photograph Led
to Two CONFERENCE.-THE.
A girl and her photograph were the
innocent cause of two courts.martial
at Boston recently, and the effects of
which may be long continuous. The
girls name is Dorothy Hesier and her
home is at Evanston, III.
Recently Miss Hesler paid a visit to
an uncle in Boston and a chance visi-
tor at the latters home was DR.. Ed
ward s. Cowles, middle-aged and mar
ried. He greatly admired Miss Hesler.
who is pretty young girl Of lS and
the daughter Of a soldier who fell
fighting in the Philippines. One day
he took her photograph from her
uncle's home and is said to have
boosted, while exhibiting it, that his
manly pulchritude had charmed her.
Miss Hesler was engaged to Past
Assistant Surgeon Ansey H. Robnett,
formerly of the Charlestown navy
yard, and acquainted him with the
conduct of DR.. Cowles. There was a
dance given at the Charlestown navy
yard, to which DR.. Cowles was invited
ny one of the officers. There he en-
countered DR.. Robnett and the latters
intimate friend and master of cere-
monies, Paymaster George P. Aud.
An alteration ensued. and during an
interchange of back-hand courtesies
DR.. Cowles was elected by Aud, aided
and encouraged by DR.. Robnett. The
following day the latter said things
to DR.. Cowles over the phone and de-
manded that he return at once the
picture of Miss Hesler.
The dignity of DR.. Cowles was In
suited and he lodged complaint
which resulted in the Secretary of the
Navy administering a reprimand to
Paymaster Auld and DR.. Robnett, and
In transferring the latter to Newport
naval station. The wife of DR.. Cowles
|, was not placated by this punishment,
and went to Washington, where her
