that the candle power is definitely fixed,

OBSCURUM PER OBSCRUIUS,
(Tn the Catcasian.l


An explanation that ,0bscures-prob-
ably inadvertently query such as was
propounded about the failure of Our city
commissioners to publish a statement of
their receipts and expenditures for the
first quarter after induction into office
as the law of their creation directs, IS
curiotsly illustrated by an explanation
offered by the Commissioner of Finance
and appearing in your issue of the 2Ist
inst. For their 1aches he manfully as
sun1es all the responsibility, and offers
reasons that somewhat help to recall his
we'll known habit of delay while comp
troller i'll bringing his reports into con-
junction with the calendar, which the
law has changed to periods of time fol-
lowing the election This habit has al
ways been excused, however, i'll an Off
eial Of such proven and undoubted in
tegrity, and for some reason the writer
though not the querist-can express
appreciation of the compliment that his
confreres pay in this deferring to his
suggestion as well as the spirit of
'apres vous mon ami Alphonse" thus
shown, and which augurs SO much of
guileess spirit of concordance upon all
questions affecting the administration,
and which may fit into many other mat
5ers affecting our municipal enbroglio.

MAIDLIN SENTIMENT.

In every community there is the class
who are moved by maudlin sentiment
and who frequently would heroize a
criminal There can be no objection to
a tender of sympathy to one who may
be entitled to some consideration, but
too much attention to one in custody be-
comes irksome and annoying For in
stance, Mrs Maynie, held in confne-
ment in the parish jail for the killing
of c. 6. Kornegay, has complained to
Sheriff F1ournoy of being the recipient
.of too much attention, and her attorney,

NATURAL RESOURCES
The Importance of Their Conservation
Can Not Be Over estimated

In the closing of the gas we'll in the
Caddo field on Tuesday last, a great
feat was accomplished, which has dis
credited the declaration that such pos
sibility was beyond control
It has been demonstrated too often
that nothing is impossible to men of
brains and perseverance when their ac-
tion is directed intelligently The plan
was simplicity itself, as explained in the
Caucasian Many Of the most useful
things i'll daily use come from their
simplicity To be useful brains must
be practical
In the closing of this wild well has
been emphasized the Importance and the
necessity of conserving natural re-
sources. which include valuable grants
to individuals and corporations
In the years past there has been a
free giving of natural resources, of
franchises and concessions which, as
assets 0 fany community, should de-
nand All equivalent in value. This Civ
ing away of these assets must be
stopped as well as their reckless waste.
The law recently enacted on the mo-
ton of Representative Smith Of Caddo,
should operate effectively in preserving
The natural resources of tie State such
as oil, gas and other matters which
much be preserved conservatively for
the good of all the people.

ELECTION FRAUDS
Paul Felix and w. w. Stiles of Jeffer-
son Parish Convicted in the Federal
Court.

Paul Felix and w. w. Stiles Of JEFF
ferson parish which is above New Or
leans, and has for years been stencil
in Louisiana politics, will be compelled
to serve a term in some Federal prison.
Not long since these two men, who are
part of a gang of ballot box suffers
and election thieves, were convicted of
interfering i'll an election at Kenner, but
appealed After a full hearing of the
case the Court of Appeals of the United
States has sustained the verdict of the
lower court.
If Felix and Stiles had ever been inn
pressed with the presumption that their
interference was Il. joke, they must now
realize that it is one of the jokes which
is not appreciated by United States au-
thority although such an act would be
approved by ballot box suffers and
swindlers at elections for officials Of
the state or city. pertaining to New Or
leans.
There would be great clarifying of
the political atmosphere of Louisiana if
some of the ballot box suffers and
swindlers at elections in Louisiana were
doing service in the pen.
