Labelling Rice.
now.

AS the details of the regulations enforced by
the Board Of Food and Drug Inspection under
the federal food inspection law are announced
from time to time, they seem to be somewhat
complex. In the matter OF labelling rlces' or
branding the packages, the government has re-
Gently issued a food inspection decision, NO. l25,
in which it is stated that our ordinary Japan
rice, as now grown in Louisiana, must be brand
ed japan Rice and should have it plainly stated
on the labels that the rice is grown in the
United States, or, we may say, grown IN Loulsl-
ana, if such be the case. In like manner, the
Honduras rice that is now cultivated so extern
sively in Louisiana, having practically super
seeded the Carolina white rice, must, IN like
manner, be branded Grown in Mexico or
Grown in louisiana" as the case may be.
On the other hand, Carolina white rice and
Carolina gold, both popular rices in North and
South Carolina and also in some OF the other
states, may be branded Carolina White or
Carolina Gold," but if the word ''rce' is used
and the phrase is "Carolina Rice, then If grown
in Arkansas, the brand must be carolina Rice,
Grown in Arkansas" From this We may judge
that if white Carolina seed be used in the State
of Arkansas the product may be branded
white Carolina" or it may be branded Car
DINA Rice, Grown in Arkansas
We stand as staunch advocates Of the pure
food laws and think that we should always know
lust what we are getting in the way of food
( stuffs, but the nice distinction here drawn is
almost too nice for practical use and perhaps as
complex as some of President Taft's rulings on
What is Whiskey?"

have great canals dug for drainage, transport

first an outlet canal to White Lake and as soon
as practicable to bring the lands under a COM

The intention in this instance is to engage IN
the work at once and it is thought there is every
chanse for a successful outcome to the enter
prise.

Imports of Rice.

THE U. s. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE AND
LABOR gives data to June 80, inclusive cover
ing the business of the fiscal year and during
that year the imports of rice of all kinds ln1o
the United States reached an aggregate OF 49,
600 short tons. Forty-one thousand tons OF TINS
was ordinary rice, paying full duty, but 72,Wo
tons of the imported rice is known as rice flour,
rice meal and broken rice and comes IN at a
duty of but one-quarter of a cent per pound. II
those 113 GOO tons of rice were taken out Of the
American rice crop the situation would be tar
more encouraging for rice planters than 1t IS
now.

The Coming Election.

On Tuesday, November 8, we shall have the
congressional election and it is to the special IN
terest of the citizens of the Parish OF Plaque
mines that a large vote be brought out on No
vember 8, and that the vote shall be cast not
only for our congressman, the Hon. AiOeft
Estopinal. whose Republican opponent, Mr.. John
A. WOgan is not very likely to make any can
yass in this parish, where republican votes are
about as scarce as hens teeth. but also for the
various constitutional amendments that are pro-
posed. The proposed Panama Exposition tax
will unuuestionabIy receive practically all OF the
votes of the Parish Of Plaquemines, as there IS
no other parish in this state outside OF the Par
ish of Orleans, that is more interested IN having
the Panama Exposition held in New Orleans
than is our parish. The various other amend
ments, and especially the amendment authorlz-
ING the formation of road districts, have been
carefully handled by the Legislature and this is
a fair guarantee to every elector in the parish
that # will be wise for US to follow suit and to
vote for the same.
=. Every friend of the Parish of Plaquemines
should take these matters to heart and see to 1t
that he himself votes on Tuesday, November 8,
and votes along the lines we have herein lndl-
Gated. In addition to this, every friend of the
Parish of P%laquemines should endeavor to Sc
cure the bringing out Of all possible votes. Our
parish is so peculiar in its geographical forma-
ton, having a coast line of about 200 miles, that
the matter of bringing the voters to the polls is
one of very grave moment. 1t can only be done
by some of US making some sacrifices OF time
and money to get the voters transported to and
from the polls. Let us all put our shoulders to
the wheel and when Tuesday, November 8, has
passed, we shall hope to have carried every
amendment.

Speedy Justice.

PlaQuemineS Parish has established a
record for melting out Justice to a MUIR
derer. Aleck Levi, who killed his par
amour on Alliance plantation some four
years ago and has been a fugitive ever
since, was arrested on Friday, Septem-
Der 80. and brought to Plaquemines the
following Tuesday. He was indicted
by the Grand Jury on Friday, Oct. Z,
tried on Friday Oct. IA and found
guilty as charged. 1t appears that the
proverbiaI Friday has not stood Levi in
good stead for yesterday, Friday, Judge
Hingle imposed the death penalty upon
him.
The trial, which took place last Fri
day, revealed a shocking state of facts
as to the crime committedb by Levi. With
~premeditated malice he called the wo-
man, Sylvie Smith, out of her house,
and at a distance of ten feet emptied
the contents of his shotgun into her
stomach, causing almost instant death.
Despite the fact that Levi was an old
man, bent with age and sickness, the
shocking nature of the crime could not
permit the jury to do aught but bring
in a verdict of guilty as charged.
AS soon as the death warrants signed
by the Governor, Levi will be taken to
Baton Rouge for execution and ne will
probably be the first man to be hanged
within the ~penitentiary walls under the
new law providing for executions.
The authorities of this parish are to
be congratulated upon their prompt
action in connection with this case.
