How Do the Candidates Stand?
Bentley, La, June II, 10

Bentley, La, June II, 1911.
Editor Colfax Chronicle;
We have been wondering which OF
the candidates for the United States
Senate would come out and favor
the government employing Hon. N.
Z. Blanchard as special attorney to
prosecute the suits now pending
against the New Orleans Pacific Ry.
Co. to compel them to reconvey the
lands enormously patented to them,
having settlers on the lands at the
time the grant was made. Those
gentlemen all know Of this injustice
to the poor settlers, and II they do
not think enough OF these people to
notice tb cir demands for relief they
cannot expect their support. Most
OF these gentlemen have served the
people for some time as Congress
men, and if they have ever tried to
do anything in the interest OF the
settlers it has not been known. 1t
is time that they should sit up and
take notice and come out plain and
let the people know just how they
stand and what they will try to do
when they are elected.
We notice Congress can investigate
the land graft in Alaska, or they are
making bluff ut doing so, and are
now hunting "a letter that Richard
Ryan wrote to MIR. Ballinger, stating
something about the Presidents
brother having used his influence
with the President in the interest OF
the Guggenheim claims. tits strange
that our Congressman will let Lou
isitna cases hang up "a years, es-
pecially when SO many poor people
are suffering and in "a great many
cases have lost their homes, and in
other cases have had valuable tim
Der cut and removed from their lands.
This is very poor representation OF
the people, and good representation
of the railroads. Now is the time to
find out whether they expect to con-
tinue to represent the railroads OF
the people. TO remain silent means
to help the railway company to out
live the people, and time will give the
lands to the railway company. Ii
has worked this way, and will con
tinue to do SD. This is as great an
injustice as our Congressman could
possibly do us, to remain silent Will,
we are loosing our homes for thu
want OF action on their part. Ii
looks as ii they might belong tt
some firms OF corporation attorneys
that have the railway company d,
clients. This being thecase we could
not expect action in our favor, unles,
they are honest enough to withdraw
from the firms thatrepresent the rail
way companies. We want action
and want to know now what the,
propose to do about it. Silence viii
mean they do not expect to do any
thing, just as they have done all til,
while.
There are now according to tn,
records lat cases on the docke,
about 20 having been dropped oil
lost by some means, just about lik,
some other records have disappear

VIENNA. Sept. 2.-For the time being
at least the tension Is off so far as the
Balkans situation is concerned. That is
the opinion OF Austrian statesmen who
have that business in hand How long
the present state OF comparative quiet
may be maintained Is a question. II will
depend largely on the manner In which
Turkey attends to affairs in Albania.
The condition Of the Abanians is dcs-
perate. Food is scare and with the ap-
proach Of winter there is grave danger
OF widespread starvation. Whether the
steps being taken 10 meet this condition
VIII be sufficient TO tide the Albanaus
over the winter, replace their destroyed
homes and scattered focks is a oucs-
tion. II 50, and tho reforms promised
by the Turks are carried out in good
faith, there probably will be no further
disorders.
II not. then there is bound TO be a re-
currence OF the disorders OF the past few
months on moro desperate and wide
spread scale,
The attempt to Hsarm the Albanians
has been farcical. A few practically obso-
lete rifles have been turned in but thera
is hardly q mountalneer who has not a
modern rifle and q good stock OF am
munitlon laid by. They arc intensely sus-
picious OF the Turks and II would. take
very little to start the flames Of revolu-
tiOn.
1t Is understood that King Nicholas of
Montenegro has Informed both Austria
and Russia that In case OF renewal
of the troubles It will be absolutely Inn
possible TO restrain the MontcneRrins.
From Sofia comes tho same note of
warning rs to the Bulgarians,
There are closo observers here who re-
gard the situation In the Balkans as full
of danger 10 the peace OF Europe as It
ever has been. They believe there Will
be comparative peace until the spring
perhaps, but after that they look for real
warfare which 1t will be beyond the
power Of the powers to control

contracted another heavy cold and that

serious concern He Is making vlgor-
ous fight against the attack and may be

POPE INDIFFERENT
TO CALL Of DEATH

ROME. Sept. 2.-The improvement in
the condition Of the holy father is most
gratifying. but there is fear that 1t Is
only temporary. AS matter OF fact, I
am informed that The most distressing
feature OF the pope's condition to his
physicians is that he does not seem to
care greatly whether he lives or not. Not
that he evinces any desire 10 die. but he
simply Is Indifferent.
He follows the doctors directions as
nearly as possible. but IN a perfunctory
way, He has never been happy in the con-
ilnement OF the papacy and when he
Is called away he will obey the summons
cheerfully.
1t is this Indifference to death which
makes 1t improbable that even the best
OF care can prolong his life for many
months
Cardinal Rampolla recently celebrated
his sixty eighth birthday anniversary. He
is hale and hearty and looks good for
many years. The pope IS convinced that
Cardinal Rampolla will succeed him in
