On Tuesday evening at the Elk
Theatre a very fair audience gath
cred to hear the speakers who ac'
companied Mr.. Jno. I. Michel OF
his canvessing tour of the parish
es. The ladies in attendance out
numbered the voters. %
Hon. P. r. Burke presided over
the meeting and delivered the op-
ening address. He was ample in
his criticisms of the press, both
metropolitan and country. He de-
clared that they We're too frequent
ly character assassins. The peo-
pie should not believe all they said
about the candidates. He denied
that DR.. AswelI is thief; that
Judge Hall is hypocrit; or that
all the discreditable things said
about Mr.. Michel are true.
Fl. Garland Dupre followed in an
appeal to the people to disregard
sectionalism in State politics. Not
to hold prejudices against candi-
dates because they hailed from the
city OF New Orleans. He did not
want to flaunt the demerits of AS
well or Hall before the people, but
to advocate the merits of Michel.
Thos. c. Barrett, possibly, made
the best argument of the evening,
setting forth his claims to recOg-
nition in his candidacy for the
Lieutenant GovernOrship nomina-
ton.
Jos. T. Generic followed i'm Eng
lish and French. He had his au-
dience with him in the French por-
ton of his address
JnO. T.. Sullivan exposed Judge
Halls prohibition sentiments and
shed some light on professor
Doctor Aswell's check incident.
He promised that New Orleans
would give Michel $4,000 majority.
Jno. I. Michel was the last speak
er. He made a better speech than
many were prepared to expect. He
held his own, from the talking
point of view, very well. He claim
ed that while the Auditors office,
in it's best days, did pay approxi-
mately $20,0U0 per annum, but there
was a fixed operating expense OF
$4,000 per annum for running the
office. In bad years, such as years
of epidemics, the office had been
an expense to him. That through
his administration of Is years the
office had not yielded him an aver
age revenue of $1,000 year. He
admitted that the State was saw
ing money now by the change from
the commission system to salary
basis, but he contended that all the
savings would be dissipated when
the first "bad year" came along.
He admitted that he bought
"marsh lands" which afterwards
proved to be a lake; "but the State
got the money for the marsh lands
keeps the money and keeps the
lake too."
He cited another instance where
parties entered marsh lands which
were in reality lake. The State
kept the money and retained the
lake. but there was no fuss made
about that oeal.

called to discuss conditions in Iowa,
nearly forty dealers. mostly from this
section of the state. George A Wells,
of Des Moines. secretary of the Iowa
Western Grain Dealers Association,
presided at the meeting. Here are
some OF the more important conclu-
sions reached as a result of the con-
ference:
A railroad company can conhscate a
grain elevator and other buildings be-
longing to a grain dealer II a dealer
fails to remove those buildings off the
company's ground after thirty days
notice. The dealers contend TINS IS
unfair, and they are very much III
favor of the bills introduced in the
present legislature changing the pres
ent order of things.
The grain men also hold that if the
railroad company were held respol-
sibIe for the fires on grain elevators
caused by the negligence OF the ran
road or its employees, the grain dealers
insurance would decrease % per cent
Grain dealers should have the same
rights as stock raisers when deallrS
with railroads.
The state board of railroad commls-
sioners should have the right to 'N
terms of rent. location of grain eleVa1-
ors and other matters il the railway
company and the dealer can not agree.
At the present time the grain dealer
must have three or four other pusi-
nesses in order to make a living.
A closer organization of the gram
men, in order to protect their INTERESTS
is planned for the immediate future.

society. was about the only guarantee
Of the perpetuity of the organization.
II appears that Henry Reeves now
asks for temporary injunction against
the Farmers Cooperative Society of
DEBORAH to restrain them from pre-
venting the members of the society to
sell their hogs to other competitors
unless said competitors Will pay 10
cents or any amount per hundred more
than the defendant society for hogs or
livestock, and that said society be en-
Joined and restrained from receiving
from members who have sold their
hogs any per cent or amount of the
advance or raise offered by the Compel
itor.
This act will cause much interest
among the farmers cooperative soci-
cites not only of this state but turnout
the country. The legality OF such law
as has been passed by nearly every
successful co-operat tive society in the
country, has been often questioned. and
it appears now that it viii be tried out
no, only in the district court but I'M
questionably in the higher courts.
A mum Der of reasons for this action
is set out in the petition. alleging that
the members of the society are COM
PEELED to sell to the society or pay one
half Of the difference between the So
cietys bid and the competitors bid
into the society. that the members agree

he pays 10 cents above the society

instances. to prove his ention that
the society is a combination- and con-

to him, and will ultimately force him
out of the DEBORAH market.
In this connection it might be said
