I am at loss to know where
you obtained your information, !"
writes the Attorney General, to
Distriet-Attorney Garland, of st.
Landry.
District-Attorney Garland got
his information that Attorney
General Guion had given an opin-
ion to the effect that a negro
could call for a bottle, or flask, Of
whiskey at a saloon designated
for whites only, and go into the
the back yard or any place on
the premises on which the saloon
was located, and drink the con
tents and treat his friends if he
chose to do so, from the Clarion.
This information was furnish
ed the Clarion by an article in
the Crowley Signal, in which Mr..
Guion's opinion was given, and
in which the opinion was con-
strued editorially by the Signal.
The subjoined letter of the
Attorney-G Gen'l., however, makes
it plain that he does not construe
the law as bearing out the con
struction placed upon his opinion
by the Signal. On the
contrary, he is rather emphatic
that his opinion is the other way.

JAMES 7. STEWART
DIES AFTER LINGER-
ING ILLNESS.
Was A Prominent Capitalist of
This Section. Rose from A
Day Carpenter to A
Monied Man.
There passed away Thursday,

There passed away Thursday,
February 9, 1911, a man who
rose from a day laborer as a
carpenter, to a leading capitalist.
And he did this handicapped
with the disadvantages of a linn
tied education.
Reared in the timber section
of St. Landry, he came to Ope-
lousas while yet a young man.
Tutored in woodwork by his long
connection with saWmills and
timber, he was a skilled car
penter. After a few years resi-
dence in Opelousas, he moved to
Crowley, when that town was
just being built. There he work
ed as a day laborer.
Returning to Opelousas, he en-
gagged in the lumber business,
and it was the lumber business
which started him on the road
to financial success. In fact his
success was phenomenal, and
after some thirteen years of
active life in that business, he
retired and became a capitalist.
He was a Strong, r o b us t,
healthy man, and two weeks ago
when it was told about town that
he was suffering from a stroke
of paralysis, it caused a general
surprise. He fingered, semi
conscious, with occasional at
tacks of apoplexy. The third
and last occurred Tuesday night,
and on Thursday night, at 8:15
o'clock, he breathed his last.
Mr.. Stewart was aged Sc years,
3 months and 5 days.
The funeral took place yester-
day afternoon at A o'clock; ser
vices being held in the Baptist
church, and interment in the
Protestant cemetery.
He leaves two children: Willie
Stewart and Mrs. J. B. Brock.

ATTY GENERAL SAYS
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Did Not Give Opinion that Blacks Could Buy By
Quantity and Drink Premises

clipping taken from the New
Orleans Picayune of this morn
ing:
From it you will see that you
are quoted as disagreeing with
me concerning the terms of the
Gay-Shattuck Law, and the clip
ping from the St. Landry Clar-
ion would seem to have it that
you are of the opinion | have
held that a negro may go to a
saloon or barroom set apart for
whites only, buy a bottle or a
half bottle of Whiskey from such
saloon or barroom, and drink the
same on the premises, or that a
white person may go to a negro
barroom or saloon, purchase a
half bottle or bottle Of Whiskey,
and do likewise on the premises
set apart for a negro barroom or
saloon.
"I Judge from the newspaper
clipping that you are of the
opinion I have so held, because
it states that District Attorney
R. Lee Garland disagrees with
Attorney General Guion in his
opinion that a negro can call for
a half bottle, or pint of liquor,
in a saloon designated for whites
only, go into a back yard or bull
pen on the premises and drink it,
or vice versa,
T would be glad if you will re-
fer me to any opinion that ! have
given holding that a negro may
drink liquor on the premises set
apart for the use of whites as a
barroom or saloon, or vice versa,
for the only opinions that / have
ever given on the subject have
been Just to the contrary, and [
am at a loss to understand where
YOU obtained your information
as to my having ever held that
negroes and whites may drink
under the same room, in the
same building, or on the same
premises.
Kindly let me hear from you
! in reply, and oblige,
Yours very truly,
WALTER GUION." !"

WARNED AGAINST CROOK
Post OfrICB Department seRds Notices
Throughout the South.

New Orleans, Feb. A. Warn
ing merchants and other busi-
ness men of the South against a
possible attempt which may be
made to swindle them on bogus
money orders, local postal officials
called public attention Friday to
one of the cleverest thefts on
record in the postal service.
Similar announcements h a V e
been made in other cities through
out the country, at the instance
of the Postofice Department,
which hopes to cause a general
lookout for the men who per-
petrated the theft of numerous
money orders at Edwards, Ind,
and will probably try to reap a
rich harvest thereby.
Money orders numbered from
1868 to 1900 inclusive, were
stolen from the Indiana office
January 81. A prepossessing
stranger entered the Office with
the announcement that he was
inspector of supplies. He sue
ceeded in deceiving the post
master who gave him access to
all blank money orders and other
supplies. While he was en-
gagged in his inspection" the
willy stranger put the orders men
toned in his pocket and took his
departure.
Advices received here by the
postmaster here state that the
thief will probably use these or.
ders for large amounts and make
purchases for small amounts, ex,
pecting to receive the difference
in cash. He is described as be
ing about 80 years old, weighing
IT'S pounds, with smooth face,
black hair and dark eyes, and Of
prepossessing appearance.
