CONGRESSMAN RanSdell.

Tensas Gazette: There is no more
jealous or hard working represen-
tative in Congress than Hon. Jos. r..
RansdelI, and never in our history
have we had greater Or better con-
gresham, or one more suited to the
place or useful to the Nation. HIS
election to the United States Senate
next year is essential to our welfare
only second to the destruction OF the
boil weevil. If Tensas will give him
her usual handsome majority our
people must qualify by paying poll
tax before the end Of the year. The
issue at stake is too great to trlfle
with. Let every man in Tensas par
ish pay his poll tax before the close
of the year, and then next month
old Tensas will give the man from
East Carroll that majority OF which
we are so justly proud and which ne
so justly deserves.

Meter Stamps For Letters.

Collectors of postage stamps VIII De
interested in knowing Of a proposal to
adopt the New Zealand system and
abolish the use Of postage stamps III
together. IL this is done the value OF
many stamps now In the hands OF col
iectors will soar amazingly. The plan
suggested is that instead Of laying "
a supply of postage stamps or buying
one or two at a time, as needed. yon
have a stamp meter installed in your
Office or home A letter to be mailed
is inserted in the meter and rubber
stamped with an Official mark which
serves the purpose Of an ordinary post
ags stamp. The meter records the NUM-
Der OF letters stamped in this way. ana
when the government agent comes
around to read the meter he collects
for the number of stamps recorded In
the machine. The use OF envelopes
with a printed stamp in ordinary black
type on the upper right hand corner In
stead Of the coiored adhesive stamp
has already appeared in this country
especially among large business houses.

contend that the prohibition law
does not prohibit because some men
treat it with contempt and DEFY 1t
wilfully, and therefore suggest the
saloon regulated.
AS we'll attempt to regulate Old
Nick as to presume to provide reg
nlations for a saloon or groggery
that would be respected and OBJ
served.
Adispensary is sometimes sug-
gested, where intoxicants would be
sold only in original packages, but
neither the regulated saloons nor
the dispensary would operate
against the bootleggers who thrlVed
when the saloons were licensed in
Shreveport. 1t may be asserted that
the bootleggers can never be
squelched until the manufacture OF
intoxicants shall cease.
With the exception of the extrem-
lists and some of the weak-knees
which have been or may be classed
as prohibitionists so-called, it may
lbe declared and is asserted that the
enforcement of the prohibition law
has been satisfactory, and a COM
parison of its enforcement with
other laws will demonstrate that the
evils arising from the saloon and the
oropgery have been greatly minim-
lied.
While the enforcement of the pro-
hibition law has been satisfactory, II
could be made more effective il the
courts were to inflict greater pen
atty on tn convicted, many of whom
resume their defiance when released
from custody or escape from con-
viction.

Banks of the Panama Canal.

By the time the Panama canal Ia
opened the ships may sail through ter
raced green lawns instead OF the bare
yellow earth slopes now in evidence.
says Peru Today. The reason IS not
altogether an aesthetic one IL IS he
lieved that seeding the sIoping sides OF
the canal through the cats with Il
strong grass may prevent the slides
now so frequent and will reduce TIDE
wearing down by the tropical rains
I'll. Pittier. an expert botanist from the
Smithsonian institution, has charge OF
an attempt to test this theory. for
which purpose the agricultural depart
ment at Washington has sent down
several thousand pounds of grass seed.
Even though it he impossible TO pre-
vent entirely the occasional big slides.
it seems almost certain that this meas
ure will result in great saving by
holding the ground from starting ca"
eept under great pressure and by re-
ducing the erosion which brings down
tremendous amount of earth i'll the
course Of the year.

A Unioue Wall.

A wall 1900 feet long. four feet hiGn
and three feet thick at the bottom has
Just been completed on country es-
tate near Port Chester under the d.
rection Of Samuel Parsons. who says
that it is unique. The granite blocks
which form the wall were quarried
about fifty miles away and were USED
lust as they came from the quarry.
The interstices have been filed with
loan and mold and planted profusely
with such lowering herbs and creepers
as will thrive best and look prettiest IN
that environment The stones are all
large. from three tons down and from
three to ten feet long and fitted as
closely as they could be without the
use of any other tool than hammer
to knock off the rough edges. MS
specimen of cyclopean masonry says
Mr. Parsons description, lin which
about 5000 rock plants have been
planted. is withal a perfect fence
