NIicIlel,S Meeting.

Referring to the Michel demon
,tration in New Orleans the Times
Democrat says: 1T is significant
contradiction and confession that
while the voters were invited TO
support the ring. great care was
taken to eliminate all evidences OF
the ring from the platform. None OF
the bosses, save Michel himself
were permitted to speak. The men
who will benefit most by his election
were kept we'll in the background
and out of sight. because it was
feared that any prominence given tC
them would hurt the cause, would
make it only too evident what the
entire movement meanS-to keel
1.-THE bosses in power, and provide
more patronage for their followers
and henchmen"

Terrebonne in Halls Column.

j. The Eros Plain Dealer: Mr.. +. l.,
Lasbrooke, a planter of Terrebome,
and Mr.. John w. Lewis of Opeleus-
as, st. Landry parish, bring in re-
ports that indicate further basis for
the statement of a ring politician OF
Orleans that there's Hall wave on
and there's no use denying it.
Hall will carry Terrebonne, but
not by very large majority" said
Mr.. Lasbrooke. "Broussard will car
ry the parish by heavy vote, Pujo
coming next and Sanders third
Broussards campaign manager, Col
Price. is a Michel man. This line-up
of the colonel's was due to a local
fight over school house. The lead
err of the opposition, Mr.. Caillouette,
went FOR Hall. Colonel Price, OF
course, went for Michel. Should
there be any changes between now
and election day, Hall and Pujo and
Broussard will gain and Sanders and
Michel will lose

North Louisiana for Hall.

Monroe Independent: Former Gov
ernor N. C. Blanchard, who is one OF
the ablest and strongest leaders OF
the reform forces for good govern
ment and an ardent supporter OF
Judge Hall for the governorship. in
a short interview given out in New
Orleans Thursday, expressed the be-
lief that Judge Hall will carry
North Louisiana by big majority
He also stated that Mr.. Michel, the
machine-ring candidate, is the third
man in the race in North Louisiana,
and that Judge Hall is leading his
opponents by a large majority in
Caddo parish.

Cotton Farmers selr-sustainina.

The New Orleans Plcayune III an
editorial disabusing the New York
Sun of its belief that the cotton
farmers can not hold their cotton
for better prices but must sell to
meet their needs. says:
'.rhe Southern farmer has well
learned the lesson of crop diverslii-
cation and there is little chance that
there will be any general return to
the old short-sighted policy OF de-
voting all energy to cotton alone
When. then, the producers deter
mine to hold back their cotton, they
not only have the will, but also the
power. ito do so, as they are finan-
clally in good shape and they have
produced abundant food crops.
At least this condition applies te
Louisiana, especially North Louis
lana, where the farmers as rule
are self-sustaining. Independent anC
are doing we'll.

Amendment TO Article 20.

The movement to secure an
amendment to Article 210 of the
State Constitution so as to render
women eligible to serve on school
boards and boards of other public
institutions is not party measure
It has been endorsed by members OF
every political faction. In the city
of New Orleans four daily papers
and one weekly have written edit
orials in its favor. In the parishes
twenty-one papers and journals
have written editorials or pub
rished articles favoring the measure

Beats Raising Cotton and Corn.

In the Ruston Progressive Age III
an article headed with the line quot
cd is related how a gentleman SIX
years ago was without a dollar. en-
gagged in growing sweet potatoes,
from which he has paid for his farm
and he is now well-to-do. Potatoes
in this instance beats raising cotton
and corn, but if the acreage gener-
ally in cotton and corn We're II
sweet potatoes. how much value
would there be in potatoes? The
policy which is best lies in an intel
Iigent Investigation in farming. II

THE DEMAND FOR COTTON.

If the rule which would apply
IN sunplv and demand were to pre-
vail. instead OF speculation, thefe
would he little variation i'll the price
of cotton.
Is it not natural to conclude that
with the steady increase III popu-
Iation there should be an equal de-
.mand for the raw material from
which a variety of fabrics are man
ufactured.
II is computed that the yield OF
this year will aggregate fifteen mil
lion bales, and therefore there mas
been precipitated through specula-
tion a decline in price which II moi
ruinous is at least not profitable to
the grower.
Assuming that the crop were ter
million bales, as it was a few years
since, would not the quotations DE-
held firm at perhaps 10 cents anc
possibly higher?
Would there not be a famine II
cotton?
According to statistical informa-
lion. obtained from reliable sources
it appears that the worlds demand
for next year will be approximately
fifteen million bales.
/. Who are the sufferers from spec
ulation?
While the gamblers are film:
their pockets the South is the victim
of millions of dollars from the seal
ing of prices which are unjust ant
arbitrary.
Tt would seem that the grower O.
cotton is slow to learn how he is be.
ing tricked by the spectators. Du
in time the lesson will be learned
and memorized effectively.
The solution, as demonstrated re-
