ANOTHER STEP PLANNED
TO BOOST RIVER TRAFFIC

in reviving traffic on the Mississippf
river will be taken next week by the
Inauguration OF a 15-day service be-
tween Cairo, st. Louis, Memphis and
New Orleans with a fleet of modern,
steel bayges.
The first barge will reach New Or
leans next Sunday and will return
north with cargo of sugar, molasses,
rice, canned goods and oil. The barge
rates are so much lower than railroad
rates that the promoters believe more
tonnage will be offered than can be
readily cared for.
A weekly service will be inaugurated
as soon as other barges are added.

NOT LESS FOOLISH THAN BOURNE HIMSELF.

Jonathan ~Bourne's bill to require unanimous opinions by the supreme court of the United States concern ing the constitutionality os federa! and state laws and state constitutions, we believe, is not being given any more serious consideration than is generally accorded to MT. Bourne hia- self.
 In his brief remarks upon the bil. when he presented it in the senatt., he intimated that there were lawyers in congress as renowned" as those who sat in the highest court While the legal ability of the lawyers in congress might be unquestioned, we believe r will be admitted that in the pulling and hauling. the turmoil and the partisanship incident to legisia- tion, there would be a lack of that calm so essential to deliberation
 But admitting that the final iudg- ment of the judiciary committees of the two houses, endorsed by the houses themselves is as infaIhble as that of the supreme court what are We to say of the legislatures? It would be a step toward anarchy to protect the laws of the average IegiG- lature against notification by the su, preme court; it would be a still longer step to protect the laws of Mr. Bourne's own state of Oregon against notification, for at this time the courts have not yet been able to determine the meaning of one of the Initiated laws enacted last November. though it was a product of the concentrated wisdom of the Peoples Power League
 The proposition Of NIT. Bourne to require unanimous opinions by the supreme court, is equivalent to a proposition to reduce the number of the members of the court to one.
 We suspect that the real purpose oi the Bourne bill is to save the laws of Oregon and especially to save the constitutional provision, the initiative and referendum, now on trial before the court of last resort.

4 PLAIN TRICK OF THE ENEMY.

We notice that some of tEe republi- can newspapers Of the new state among them the Arizona Republican are urging the people to keep an eye on the legislature to see that the men selected are proper men, etc.
 This is a paIpable trick to divert cur attention toward the legislature while the republicans swipe the sen atorships, the governorship, and all the ether ships constituting our state hood navy.
 They propose to let us have the shell, the shadow while they capture the meat. the substance. Do not be deceived, or become atnormally in terested in the legislature, for after all tt is a mere skeII, a shadow of the law making power. It is almost an abomination, an insult to the real law making power, tho people and the man who displays an eagerness to become a member Of it is moved by 2 sinister design against the people. lie may be suspected of attempting to break the bonds which the consti tution makers forged about the legis- lature. He will need watching for the chances are two to one that he in tends to turn the clcck Lack; to make himself an obstacle in the way of pro sress which has been so happily cleared
 We suspect also that it is the puT. i Jose O! our republican advisers to get us in baG' with the people if they should catch us flirting with the legislature. If the republicans want an eye kept on the legislature let ! them keep it on.

An incident at Kissimee, Florida has jared the entire country, though strangely not unpleasantly. u has effected a collision between our hab- it's of thought and our sympathy with a situation which we had hitherto con sidered only superfciaIly, if al all.

 The accused administered at first to the dying woman anaesthetics and sleeping draughts until the stomach of the patient made this form of re- lief no longer possible. Then the patient asked to be permitted "to pass out of the body"
 There was prayerful consideration of the request after which chloTo- form was given. The patient came out from under the influence of it and she vas then asked if she stili desired to rass out" Her resolu- ton was unshaken and the fatal dose was administered.

sion believed that the accused brother and sister should be discharged. No where has the story been received as the story of a crime.
 It was at first suggested that the re- lieving brother and sister might be charged with eonniving at a suicide but while the laws of many states de. fine suicide as an offense, the laws of Florida do not. Hence, there could be no criminal conniyance.
 But as there Is nowhere disposition to use the word criminal" in con nection with this aFair. there is also hesitation about using the word "justifable" In the same con nection.
 There is another side of the mat ter. While in this ease, the motive was mercy. Q recognition of the jus tifability of the act might encourage others with improper motives, to hasten the departure of sick and sui fering friends, and, to that extent, would remove the safeguards which the law throws about human life.

II Looks Good, But

Since the Civic League has so
faithfully worked for the i'm
provement of the city and the
identifying of our public streets,
wouldn't it be good policy to go
little further and request own
ers of vacant lots to remove the
rubbish from the same and NOV
the weeds off of them? There
are several unsighly spots in the
city that destroy the beauty of
much of the good work already
done. Especially is this so on
Austin Street, between this
Office and Jackson Street and in
many other parts of town. An
other improvement which we
suggest to property owners is to
straighten up their front fences.
A board fence leaning out on the
sidewalk doesn't look well, Meth
er is it conducive to the safety of
pedestrians on a dark night.
BY the way, little paint or
whitewash makes an old, insight

more good. Come, help them.

land. more than do the crops
grown in the summer, by having
the fertility leached out by the
winter rains, cover crop of
small grain, clover, or vetch,
will prevent this, at the same
time furnishing valuable feed as
grazing. The hay crop this
year is light, and feed of all
kinds is going to be scarce and
high next spring, therefore it is
imperitive, that you should get
planted early as possible all of
your corn and cotton land.
Plant Oats and Vetch Rye,
Wheat, or Barley, between the
cotton rows with drill or harrow,
after the first picking, and as
soon as corn is gathered, cut
and turn under stalks deep as
you can and drill or harrow it
Remember that oats, planted
in September, or first of October
can be harvested in the first half
of May, and the land planted in
cotton or some other crop.
