CATION, the Shreveport band, which
pleased the visitors at the State Fair
last year. The cOntract has already
been signed with Manager Rettig OF
Shreveport.
Those who visited the Fair last year
know what this band is capable of
doing. Rain or shine the members
were on hand. and they were any.
thing but stingy with their selections.
They practiced great deal before the
Fair opened simply to please the Wis

ticle Of music that they gave caused
the Fair association to negotiate early
this year to engage them again.
This year there will he about thirty
members Of the band. Besides the To-
cal members several talented mu-
sicians from other cities will be en-
gagged. They promise to furnish a
number Of new selections and to give
the visitors 20 the Fair the best on the

MIR. NATIoN,s FEES.

It doesn't seem that the legislature
will be doing any more than what is
fair and right, if it passes a bill APP
propriating the necessary money to
reimburse the former state auditor,
James A. Nation, for fees that he turn
ed over to the state which he YVES en-
titled to keep for himself. When the
law was passed requiring the state
auditor to register all public utility
bonds, provision was inserted in it
authorizing him to collect a fee of not
more than SO cents for each bond thus
registered. 1t was evidently the idea
of the legislature which passed this
law that the auditor would be entitled
t. this extra compensation for the
extra work and responsibility that was
placed upon his shoulders.
| But Mr.. Nation, unusual man that
he is. was not certain as to whether
or not he was entitled to keep these
fees. So he turned them into the state
treasury. Just as he was retiring from
office he received an opinion from the
attorney general to the effect that he
was legally entitled to these fees. But
Mr.. Nation had already placed the
money in the state treasury, and the
only way he can get it is through the
necessary legislative action. Under
various laws other state officials are
entitled to fees in addition to their
salaries, and they have never hesitated
about taking them.
So nothing more than justice will be
done Mr.. Nation If the sum CT these
fees which he collected for registering
! public utility bonds is turned over to
him. 1t would also be a fitting re-
ward to Mr.. Nation for the honest and
earnest manner In which he. served
the state during the four years of his
incumbency in the authorship. But in
no sense of the word will it be a re-
ward. 1t Is Mr.. Nations due.
