Pare PERDUE NOTES.

A period of drier weather has
set in, which is welcomed by the
farmers, as the crops have haG
more than enough rainfall for tho
present.
Cane is looking fine and has
grown very rapidly under the pre-
vailing conditions and with ter
days of dry weather to permit OF
field work where it is necessary
the general situation will be al
most without flaw. Heavy
stands of cane we'll developed and
with good color. are to be found
on practically all of our farms.
While cotton has had plenty OF
rain for the time being and there
may be some complaints of exces.
sive moisture, many think that the
late rains have not hurt the crop
but will help to carry ut through
August. In the Coteau section
the cotton is we'll fruited with
full grown bolls which will open
in a short while and look for pick
ing during the latter part Of this
month Or during the first OF
August.

MIR. MICHEL s CANDIDACY

Mr.. Michel is still a candidate
but his strength long ago reached
high tide and is now receding.
He cannot win in the first prim-
airy, and to confess that to be a
fact is to acknowledge that eth
err Judge Hall or DR.. Aswell will
be the next Governor of Louisi-
ana.-New Orleans Daily States.
If all the readers of the States
were idiots, Mr.. Michel, as a cam
didate, would be in a bad way.
But they are not. Hence, any
statement which our steamed
Aswellian contemporary makes
against Mr.. Michel is very
promptly and properly accepted
with large grain of salt. Our
contemporary is only deceiving
itself when it says that the Nj
chel candidacy is on the decline.
Every half-informed man in Lou
isiana knows that Mr.. Michel has
his two opponents so badly dis
tanced that he will in all pro-
liability be elected in the first
primary. We trust we will be
pardoned for suggesting the i'm
propriety on the part of the edi-
tor of the States of "confessing"
anything for Mr.. Michel.-St.

REAL CIVILIZATION IN
JAPAN,

It will soon be against the law
of Japan for children under IL
years old to work fifteen or even
twelve hours a day in textile
mills, and eventually it will be
against the ltw for children Of
tender years to be employed at
all over there in the land of cheap
lives. Mr.. Yoshigatsu Katayama,
councillor Of the department Of
agriculture and commerce Of the
imperial japanese government.
who is now stopping few days
in New York before going to Eng
land and Germany to study the
factory laws Of the old world, ex-
planned the new factory law OF
Japan in his room at the Hotel
Astor.
II had been borne in on the i'm
perial ministry, he said. that ia
pan was too prOdigal of the lives
of it's workmen. and that under
the untrammeled factory system
which had been the outgrOwth OF
recent years of swift industrial
development the whole physical
fiber Of the japanese people was
threatened with deterioration
The law. which was passed by
parliament a year ago, was the
initial step toward putting the
brake on the rapid pace of manu-
featuring at the expense of the
workers.
cit is but the beginning" Mr.
Katayama said. "Nothing like
this law had ever been enforced
in Japan before, and it is mat
urally defective and inadequate.
But it is step in the right direc
ton. 1t was necessary to pre-
serve the health Of the masses of
working people employed in man
ufacturing arts"
Mr.. Katayama seemed surpris-
ed that the average American did
mot know that until the recent law
was promulgated fifteen and even
sixteen hours a day, seven days
week, was the common limit of
labor in Japanses mills. He ad-
mitted that this was every bad"
and that the necessity for a
change was imperative.-New

SECTIONALISM IN PUBLIC
BENEFITS.

Some days ago the Picayune
remarked upon a cowardly and
contemplate attack made by
Senator Hepburn. Of Idaho, on {:
bill proposed by Senator Williams,
of Mississippi. to appropriate a
sum of money out of the United
States treasury to build monu-
ment at Vicksburg to the men,
DRY of the Confederate soldiers
who gave their lives there for the
defense and independence of the
South.
The New York Sun attacks the
proposed appropriation, and says /:
"There is no possible justifica-
ton or excuse for the bill intro
duced by the Hon. John Sharp
Williams to appropriate $4,000
out of the Federal treasury toward
the cost of monument to be
built at Vicksburg in honor of the
Confederate naval forces that
took part i'm the operations on the
Mississippi during the Civil War.
Such a monument, if it is to b.
built, should be built by private
contributions. No talk of good
feeling or i'll feeling, no amount
of lachrymose or Of bellipotent
eloquence can alter the fact that
the Federal Government should
not pay for memorials to the men
who fought. to break it up AMI
get away from it. :"
This is just what was to be ex-
pected from the Sun. which doubt
less inherits it's opinions from its
ancient and famous editor. who,
during the war in which the pro-
longed and bloody siege Of Vicks-
burg occurred, was assistant sec
rotary of war of the United
States.
Our Southern people. who for
more than forty years have been
paying their share Of the enor-
nous pension gift to the real and
pretended United States veterans
Of the Civil War. and who took
their places in the ranks Of the
army that fought for the Union in
the war with Spain, have some
how got the notion that they are
citizens of the common country
and are entitled to some Of the
benefits the nation dispenses, but
they are repeatedly made to under
stand that the South is expected
to pay and to serve. but is to get
none of the benefits.
The sooner our people come to
understand this the better for the
country and the better for the
South. When they realize that
this great nation is carried ON for
the benefit of the Northern sec
ton of the Union and that while
every Southern navy-yard is to be
closed and dismantled, all the
navy-yards are to get all
the money and all the patronage.
and that this rule runs through
the entire national administration,
they will learn not to be so eager
and anxious to help their North
ern brethren to secure all the ma
tional bounty when none of it
comes to the South. 1t is worth
while to know how to be gene
rous to the generous and selfish
to the selfish.-Picayune.

II am astounded that a man of
Mr.. John M. Parker's standing
should have repeated, as it is evil
dent that he did, a conversation
with Mr.. Aswell, and which con-
versation Mr.. Trousdale says he is
authorized to make public. and
particularly as Mr.. John M. Park
err well knows that in short con-
versation with Mr.. Aswell in my
presence, he told Mr.. Aswell that
his committee would not support
any man for governor unless that
man agreed to distribute the pat
ronage of the city of New Orleans
through his (John M, Parker's
ommittee. | i 4 !.
cit was further agreed that I
should make an engagement for
Mr.. Parker and Mr.. Aswell to
meet again, but after leaving Mr.
Parker. Mr.. Aswell said to me ::
'Parker's talk is dangerous; do
not arrange for me to meet him
again.
II furthermore warned several
of Mr.. Parker's friends CONT
dentially that he was most in1is-
crset in his political propositions,
as some of them will remember
when they read this. I say this in
justice to Mr.. Aswell to show that
We have acted with utmost consid-
Grafton of the league, and did not
want to put it in the attitude of
being a political organization for
