In making pictures by this process a

The color photographers have devised
an instrument known as the sensitometer.
by the use of which they are able to
tell exactly what sort of ray-flter should
be used to photograph given object in

sists of a series of superimposed colored
glasses BY holding these to the light

select such screens as will keep out all

A leading French photographer has de-
yised a method for making positives out

that the negative is transparent where

To the Superintendent and Managers OF

AN UNsEEMLY SPECTACLE.

Judge Hall is a candidate for
Governor of Louisiana. He has al
ready taken his oath of Office as AS
sociate Justice of the Supreme Court
and if defeated in his ambition to
become Governor, will, next spring,
take his seat on the Supreme Bench.
In that capacity he will daily pass
upon questions involving life, liber-
ty and property to litigants before
that Court and affecting, indeed,
the interest of all inhabitants Of the
State.
Judge Hall is a poor man. 1t
costs a lot Of money to make the
race for Governor and somebody
must put up that money, for Judge
Hall hasn't got it to put up.
The judge is engaged in an acri-
monious and heated political cam
paign. He and his organs Of the
press are daily singing mud at DR..
Aswell, and the doctor and his or
gans are daily bespattering the Judge.
Every day an Associate Justice Of
the Supreme Court is dragging thro'
the mire of politics the judicial
gown which the people of this Su-
preme Court district presented to
him, not twelve months ago. Truly,
an unseemly spectaclel Truly pity
it is that we have not in Louisiana

ed in some Of the States. By the
exercise of that power the people
have the right to remove from office
the officer who has failed in the
trust confded to him, who has lost
their confidence and respect.
Judge Hall has declined to resign
the Office Of Associate Justice. He
insists on holding on to it, and,
when defeated, will take his soiled
ermine on the Bench. But, if we
had the right to "recall' him, this
could be prevented. If the judges

Thirty-one of the States, includ-
ing every one of the Southern
States, except Louisiana. have al
ready ratified this amendment, only
four more States are required to
make it law. Will the Legislature,
about to be chosen, vote for ratifi-
cation, or, like its predecessor, fail
to carry out the viii Of the people
of Louisiana. The answer to this
question depends on the voters.
Each and every candidate for the
next Senate and House Of Repre-
sentatives should be required to de-
fine his position-to say whether,
or not, he will vote for ratifca-
ton.
There is no question Of doubt
that an overwhelming majority OF
the people of Louisiana has for
years favored the income tax. But
their will was not carried out by the
Legislature. At its session last year
that body had the matter under
consideration. The House voted for
ratification but the Senate refused
to ratify, so the measure was, for
the time, defeated and the will OF
the people thwsrted.
This should not happen again.
The way to prevent it is, as we have
pointed out, to see to it that no
man opposed to the amendment
shall become member Of the next
Legislature. Let each voter, before
pledging his support to or casting
his vote for any candidate for SEN
ate or House. find out how he
stands. In this way, and in this
way only, can we be sure that the
will of ninety-five per cent OF the
people OF Louisiana will be carried

LEGISLATIVE CANDIDATES.

In the clamor and heat OF State
campaign where the people are to
select the Governor and all State
and parish officers and two United
States senators, the voters are apt
to lose sight of the Importance OF
selecting fit men to represent them
in the Legislature.
Indeed, there is an unfortunate
disposition to look on these offices
as of little importance to the people
and to permit them to be filled by
men of small capacity for the inn
portant work entrusted to them.
These observations, we think, APP
ply particularly at this time, when
the people Of Louisiana are called
on to choose a new Legislature to
exercise the most important power
in our governmental system-the
yer OF making new laws or re-
ling or amending old ones--a
power which Affects the happiness
and prosperity Of every citizen.

Three reports Of transfers in man.

Three reports of transfers in man
agement of saloons in the city were
reported to the council under the re-
cent ruling and the reports were made
a matter of record.
The council spent some time discuss
| ing the question of the Frank school
addition and the clerk was instructed
to notify the board that the CITY
would not furnish money for the build
| ing of an auditorium at the Frank
school No action was taken in re-
gard to the school bonds and the city
attorney was directed to prepare new
bond ordinance for the issue of SIT 900
worth of school bonds. At the same
time these bonds are sold the city will
offer $4,000 worth of trunk sewer
bonds in order to provide for the com
pletion of the big sewer. 1t is probable
that these bonds will be sold early in
September. It is thought that good
market can be found at that time.
Both sets of bonds will be serial.
bonds with provisions that they must
be retired in ten years and both will
bear interest at a rate of four and a
half per cent. The SIT 900 school bond
issue is the additional amount required
for the Frank school.
The streets committee was instructed
to have the defective grades on Mar
ket Square remedied at once and to ar
range for the placing of light on the
watering trough on the, square. The
old question of the Congress street
grade came up and the matter was re-
ferred to the committee with instruc-
lions to lower the walks off grade to
the grade set by the city. The coun-
Gil desired to take no action on the
big sidewalk ordinance now in the
hands of the clerk until the first meet
ing of the council in February Of next
year. 1t was held that the year was SO
far advanced that it would be impos-
sible to build the walks this year and
that it would be Of no use to have the
sidewalk ordinance passed until the
opening of new building season.
There was the usual amount of rou-
tine business. Mayor Scholey return
ed to the chair after long absence
and took decidedly spirited part in

aid In taking care of the water. The
company considered the matter and
finally put in a set of pumps and a
pipe system by which every drop of
the refuse water of the plaat was
pumped into the Elizabeth street sew
er. The cost of setting up this plant
was considerable. The Cleary, White,
Newman company sought to sell the
brass company the pipes and pumps
that it had used in pumping water from
the creek but the officials of the COM
pany declared that the amount of
81, $50 demanded for rental by the con-
tractors was out of all reason and at
once put in the new plant which was
built at less cost than had been de-
manded for rental for fifty days by the
contractors.
Then the trouble came and it euli
minated in the Cleary, White, Newman
company presenting bill to the brass
company for $3.50 and Demanding i'm
mediate payment. Right here the city
was pulled into the fight The man
ager of the brass company was in
strueted through his attorney that the
attorneys for the contractors had serv-
ed notice that unless the company paid
+hn hi II fhaf n roco1,,{;op would r. -.
sented to the council providing for the
revocation of the permits Of the brass
company, not only in regard to run
ming water into the creek, but also in
regard to the maintenance of the water
mains in the streets. This resolution
had been prepared by City Attorney
Stewart and was in the hands of At
torney Peter Fisher, who represented
the brass company. In the resolution
there was no mention of the bill of
the Cleary, White. Newman company,
but the attorney for the contractor de-
clared to Attorney Fisher that he was
empowered to inform the officials of
the company that the resolution would
never reach the council if the bill was
paid.
George III. Allen, general manager
from the brass company, called the
bluff and stood pat and demanded that
the matter go to the council. He de-
clared that he did not believe that
there were enough crooked mcn in the
city OF Kenosha or enough unfair men
on the common council to use the city
in such a manner The bluff was kept
working until a short time before the
meeting of the council, but Allen did
not give an inch and not scrap of the
resolution appeared at the council.
The brass company officials were all in
the right and the fact that they are
taking care Of all the water in the
creek has shown that they did more
than could have been demanded of
them under the contract.
The cost of taking care of the water
during the building of the sewer was
