pressure upon nerves; and when
Osteopathic treatment has re-
lieved this pressure, by relaxing
the soft tissues and restoring cor
rect bony adjustments, the pain
comes to an end.
@. Do not Osteopaths confne
themselves chiefly to the treatment
of chronic diseases?
A. By no means. AT least in a
general way, acute diseases are
more readily overcome than
chronic ones. 1t happens that
large portion of all practicing o.
teopaths are kept busy treating
chronic cases; and it is the fact
also that Osteopathy's record of
success has largely been made in
the treatment of this class of cases.
But, nevertheless, Osteopathy is
just as efficient in the treatment of
acute diseases; and the Osteopath
lis the ''family doctor" of many
families, whatever may be the
troubles from which their mem
bers suffer.
AS an instance of the difference
between acute and chronic illness,
let us consider headache. Any
Osteopath can speedily relieve an
acute headache-the usual quick
ness of these cures is source of
great surprise to those not familiar
with Osteopathic work. But to
permanently cure a sufferer from
chronic headache is a more diff
icult matter. There are usually
well-established LESSONS of the
neck yertebrae; and numerous
treatments are required before
physical harmony is so fully re-
stored that the headache will not
recur.
Is the work of the Osteopath
confined to correcting mis-adjust-
ments of the bony framework?
A. Not at all. In many cases
the physician finds that interfer-
ence with nerves and blood ves-
sells is being caused by muscular
contractions; and in such cases
his work is largely to relax the soft
tissues that are involved. This
soft tissue work, however, has not
the slightest resemblance to mas
sage. The Osteopath does no rub
bing. His work is definitely aimed
to relieve blood vessels and nerves
that are under pressure; and his
subsequent stimulation of the cir
culation is never, under any cir
cumstances, brought about by
the rubbing process. Instead, he
produces necessary effects upon
the circulation by skillful work at
the various nerve centers which
control circulation in those parts
of the body involved. His pro-
cedure is, from first to last, sci
entific and in accordance with the
most thorough knowledge of body
mechanics.

What then shall we substitute
for competitions We have tried
by means of legislation and by
means of the courts to stem this
tide,to arrest this mighty tendency
and it has been in vain. We have
been trying to kick back the
waters with our feet and they have
surrounded us and are rolling on
apparently unconscious of our eff
fort, and SO far as can be seen,
these trusts and combinations do
not bring with them, nor or they
followed by any natural check or
regulation. The process of COM
bination simply goes on until a
few men absolutely control q
whole situation, and the public is
at their mercy, while labor is
helpless. l sight these examples
only as illustrating just how far
governmental regulation has gone
in some cases of monopoly that
now exist, and | ask, can the same
remedy be applied in all cases?
I will not discuss, I do not even
offer governmental regulation as
an absolute remedy. l am simply
calling attention to the fact that
the era of competition seems to be
drawing to a close in our country,
and that governmental regulation
weak as it may be, seems to be the
only practical remedy or protec-
ton of the public that is yet vis-
ible. 1t is true that many efforts
at governmental regulation have
been farcical and almost added
insult to injury. At present we
have only political organizations
which divide the people almost
equally. They stand for little or
nothing, and leave the trusts a
clear field in which to plund er the
public. l wish l had time and
space to quote the whole speech OF
Governor Altgeld, but l will just
add the foot note that appears at
the end of the chapter, and | wish
to impress it on the mind of your
thoughtful readers. (Note-More
recent developments have satisfied
me that the attempt to regulate is
futile and will not solve the prob
lem."
But, talking of large landed
estates: Henry Miller, a single
American land owner, is lord OF
the land over an area two-thirds as
large as the whole of the Emerald
Isle. Col. D. G. Murphy of New
York State held title when he died
to more than four million acres of
farm lands. The late Senator
Farwell, of Ills, his brother, and
one or two other men, owned three
million acres in Texas. Mrs.
Virginia Ann King of Greenville,
Texas, owns so much land in one
ranch that it is drive of nearly
fifty miles from the porch of her
manor house to the front gate of
her door yard. Samuel w. Alli-
SON of Chicago owns more than
10000 acres of improved farm
land in the great central states OF
Ohio, Iowa and Illinois. Henry
Miller owns and controls IA, 100000
acres of rich and fertile land
22,500 square miles-equal in
round numbers to the aggregate
area of Massachusetts,, Connecticut,
New Hampshire and Rhode
Island. One hundred men hold
title to 100000 acres in the VAL
Hey of the Sacramento alone,
Other holdings are the Standard
Oil Company, more than 100000
acres of oil lands; Steel Trus
lands, valued at S69,0O0,000!
Arkansas Valley Land Company
Isl, ,200,0 Prarie Cattle Company
Isl, 100000, and many others toe
numerous to mention in this ar
ticle, which is already too long.

OUR PRESIDENT AIMING.

President Taft started from Boston
the evening of Sept. Is on the long
trip that is to take him across
the country from Massachusetts, to
California and back again, and give
the people chance to hear from his
lips the justification Of his course
with reference to Canadian reciproc-
ity, international arbitration, tariff
and other public questions of the day
The itinerary of the president con-
templates $4,000 miles of travel
through twenty-four states, occupy
ing forty-five days and bringing him
back TO Washington On the LIST of
November.
The first speech of the trip was
made a Syracuse, N. Y, the second
at Erie, Pa, and several succeeding
ones at different points in Michigan.
At every stopping place great crowds
Of people have assembled to see and
hear the president, and he has been
delighted with the cordially and en-
thusiasm manifested towards himself
and his views.

managed J. Y. Sanders campaign in
1903, was the next and last speaker.
At the conclusion of Gen. Estopinal's
address DR.. John S. Thibaut pre-
sented a set of resolutions endors-
ing Mr.. MichePs candidacy, which
were adopted with a cheer, the crowd
then dispensing.
Judge S. Nice. LaWrason, Of West
billed as one of the speak
ers, was prevented from attending
owing to sickness in his family.
One of the most striking features
Of the rally was. the large number of
prominent men present from all Sec
tons Of the state, the attendance in
this regard including leading citizens
of New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Alex
andria, Shreveport, Houma and other
points. Many of the candidates for
minor state offices, as well as the
campaign managers of various Of the
aspirants, were present and mingled
with the crowds.
Extensive preparations had been
made to care for the visitors, and it
is safe to say that none of the stran-
gers went without something to eat
or drink except Through choice. 1T
is estimated that the crowds spent
something like $4,000 or $4,000 here,
the hotels, restaurants, saloons, soda
water and lunch stands and moving
picture shows being the chief bene-
fietaries. The Woman's Civic League
of jacksonville. who operated a re
frekhnaenta booth on the high school
campus, realized approximately $500
frdm the sale Of sandwiches, beer,
cigars, etc.
Six brass bands furnished music
Throughout the day, and much good
cHeer and jollity were noted on all
SIDES.

Primary Date to be Fixed.

The Democratic state central COM
mittee Is to fket in New Orleans
October 8 to TX the date for the
primary election, and it is believed
that January % will be the appointed
time for the momentous event. Among
the matters to be discussed and de-
cfded by the committee will be the
question as to whether a second pri-
mary for the nomination Of United
States senator for the 1913 term will
be necessary il there is a nomination
for governor made in the first pri-
mary and neither of the three as
pirants for the senatorship receives
q majority over both his competitors.
Chairman Estopinal has asked the
opinion of Attorney General Guion
on this proposition, and it is as
sumed the state committee will be
guided In its action by the attorney
generals reply.

CANADA REJECTS RECIPROCITY.

Tic Canadian election tock place
on Thursday and resulted in a land
slide for the Conservative party, whi2
is opposed to the ratification Of the
reciprocity pact negotiated by Fresi-

rier and approved by the United
States congress, under which food
and other natural products were to
have been exchanged by the two
countries free CT duty.

Laurier was returned from two CON

Crop Comment.

Although quite a heavy shower fell
Tuesday afternoon, the weather of
the past week has been a decided
improvement over that of the pre-
ceding fortnight, particularly with
reference to the daily temperatures,
which have been some degrees lower
than those recorded last week. This
of itself is a great blessing to the
planters, and, taken in conjunction
with the comparative absence of rain,
constitutes weather conditions al
together favorable for the prosecu-
ton of field work and which have
enabled the planters to put in some
good ticks as regards fall blowing
and the gathering of hay, both of
which tasks have been seriously in
terfered with heretofore by the con
tinued rains. The lower temperatures
noted during the early morning
hours are especially welcome to the
cane growers, whose crop has at
tanned an entirely satisfactory degree
of growth and is in need of some
what cooler weather to bring it to
the requisite state Of maturity to
insure an suspicious and successful
opening of the grinding season, now
rapidly approaching.
What with fall blowing, hay-mak-
ing and factory overhauling, a brisk
degree Of activity is manifest on
all the sugar plantations in this
neigh borhood, and it is evident that
the Inauguration of the crushing
is close at hand.

TALKING TO BETTER PURPOSE.

Several of our contemporaries that
accent either the Michel or AsWell
horns Of the gubernatoria1 dilemma
have been singing hunks of sarcasm
at John M, Parker because his voice
hasn't been heard On the LOUISIANA
hastings during the past few weeks,
and the sarcasticusses pretend to
think that Mr.. Parker has been rem
dered speechless by the reproduc-
ton OF Judge Halls Dear Henry
letter suggesting that a communlca-
ton by Henry Bernstein to the reg
istrars and game Wardens would 90
some good to the judges cause in
the supreme court campaign OF last
year. The following extract from the
New Orleans Picayune OF the 4th in
slant shows that Mr.. Parker has been
far from silent, and that his voice
has perhaps been used to much bette
purpose than whooping up factional
politics:
Judge Luther Hall and his cam
paign party, who wound up tour OF
the Florida parishes at Bo3alusa,
Washington parish, Saturday night
reached the city early yesterday
morning, and went to the st. Charles
Hotel. Judge Hall found many friends
awaiting him and after bite OF
breakfast he held quite leVee IN
the lobby, which lasted until well into
the afternoon. Hon. John M. Parker,
who has been up in Mississippi at
tending farmers conventions ana
making speeches on how to improve
southern farming and stockralslng,
met Judge Hall here. Mr.. Parker
was greatly impressed with his Mis-
sissippi lecture tour. The meeting
at Starkville was particularly sue
cessful.'
We leave it to any sensible man
if it isn't heap sight better to en-
ploy ones powers of speech in en-
couraging farming and stockralsing IN
Mississippi or anywhere else than to
be raising political sand and person
al ructions in Louisiana. If we had
more takers like John M. Parker
and fewer of the other kind it
wouldn't be a misfortune, to say the
least.
