The Supreme Court Election
Address of Judge A. D. Land
oters of the Second Supreme Court District:

To the Voters Of the Second Supreme Court District
Having received assurances of support from large
majority of leading citizens, attorneys and Judges Of this
district candidate for reelection as Supreme Judge
When the Court adjourned June % had finished all
cases assigned to and left work unattended to-
am enjoying fine health and strength and see no
reason why should not be able to discharge my ntes as
Supreme Judge for long years to come, if reelected
| have devoted my entire time and the best of my
ability to my work on the Supreme Court If the record
have made commends itself the approval of the voters
ask an endorsement at their hands, and think am fairly
entitled to same
My opponent and his friends have criticized the
methods of the Supreme Court in deciding cases. AS S
preme Judge have always endeav0red to learn all the
material facts in the before the Court and do not
believe that my opponent 90 more than have donen
that respect All the Judges hear the cases argued the
opinion submitted by the Judge to whom the is
signed If it is claimed that any is made in this
opinion the case considered again application of the
complaining itigant All opinions must be concurred in
by at least three Judges-a majority. This system has
been followed in this State for forty years. served nine
years as District Judge Of Caddo Parish and have served
nearly nine years the Supreme Court. Such length
of experience guarantees experience that new ur-
tried man can possess. have always been consistent
Democrat but not factionist believing as do that
partisan can be fair-minded, impartial Judge.
Supreme Judge carries on his shoulders heavy re-
sponsibity and duty to the people of the entire State
For that reason that Court should be kept out of politics
and fractional strife believe that the conservative think
ing voters realize this and will base their choice on the
merit and the efficiency of the candidate voted for.
In conclusion will say that have done my utmost to
discharge my duty as Supreme Judge according to my
ability and the light of my conscience and vote Of ap
prevail and Endorsement from my constituents will be
deely appreciated by me.
Yours respectfully,
ALFRED D. LAND.

TOMORROW MORN

Shortly after sunrise tomorrow by
straining your ears you may catch the
sound Of what seems TO be a distant
battle, but be not afraid. Illinois has
not been invaded, 1t will merely be
the thunder of the "a gun salute
which will be fred at Rock Island ar
senal in honor Of Ericsson day and the
50th anniversary Of the day on which
the Monitor defeated the Merrimac in
the famous battle between the first
two ironclads OF history. Colonel
George w. Burr, commandant at the
arsenal, received orders recently from
General William Crozier, chief of ord
nance, TO fire the salute, a petition for
it having been forwarded to Washing
ton by parties connected with Angus
tana college where Ericsson day will be
fittingly observed in honor Of the man
whose invention played a powerful
part in the fate of this country. Other
than the firing Of the salute there will
be no observance Of the day at the ar
senal.
Services appropriate 10 the anniver-
sary will be held at Augustana col

Railway Wages and Railway Earnings

There were substantial increases in
the wages of railway employees during
the fiscal year 1911. Reports filed
with the interstate commerce commits
sion show that the total compensation
to the employees OF railways over 500
miles long was $1,O05, 277,249. The
total wage cost to the railways for the
year was greater by $41,S6S,S22 than
it would have been at the rates of pay
in effect during 1910, and greater by
$69, ,67S than it would have been
at the rates Of pay in effect during
1909.
Notwithstanding an increase of g.
10S In the miles of railway operated,
there were fewer employees on the pay
rolls June 80, 1911, than on June 80,
1910, by 31,0S7, yet the total compen-
sation paid to employees during 1911
was greater than that paid during
1910 by s49,976,216. This is greater
than the increase in the gross earn
ings of the railways by $22,595, III.
The net revenue of the railways, which
are what is left after paying operating
expenses, fell off by $40,9SS,539 during
this same period in which compensa.
ton increased nearly $4,000, 900.
These figures are summarized from

ton commission, says:
1.-The present working day, from a
physiological point OF view, is too
long and keeps the majority Of men
and women in a continual state Of
over-fatigue. II starts vicious circle
leading to the craving Of means for
deadening fatigue, thus inducing
drunkenness and other excuses. Elk
perience in reducing the working day
shows a great improvement in the
physical efficiency Of laborers, in many
cases resulting In even increasing their
output sufficiently to compensate the
employer for the shorter day. Several
samples of such result exist, but the
real justification of a shorter workday
is found in the interest of the race,
not the employer
