so he had them converted into potato
patches for the poor. As Potato Patch
PinEree he gained great renown, and
the tubers helped to plant him in the
governors chair.
Potatoes enter prominently also IN
the career Of the present mayor OF In
dianapolis, Samuel Lewis Shank, whe
has been doing his best to down tie
middleman by having the farmer dea'
directly with the people in potatoes
apples and other forms Of provender,
One Of Mayor Shank's interesting and
popular stunts" is the supervision OF
sales in the public market Of his city.
In one Of his former terms of office
Garter II. Harrison Of Chicago the
present mayor, instituted a system of
popular hearings by the city executive.
Every afternoon at about or 3 o'clock
he left his private office for the outer
chamber There, unmindful OF the fate
OF his assassinated father, he received
all who wanted the ear Of their mayor.
They stood in line, and he greeted
them with a handshake and a request
that they make their business brief.
Until the line was gone he heard
grievances and listened to suggestions
about the running Of the city govern
ment 1t was getting in touch with
the people" in literal as well as theo-
retical sense.
There are many other officials who
have done out Of the way things in
order to learn for themselves how
things were going. Mayor Seidel of
Milwaukee, the Socialist defeated for
reelection, sitting in his shirt sleeves
in his ONCE, may be mentioned. The
late Senator Bob Taylor of Tennessee
and his brother, ALI Taylor, toured the
state fiddling, as they termed it, to at
tract the crowds. Mayor Sam Jones of
Toledo, o., Golden Rule" Jones. who
is now dead, conducted meetings every
afternoon at his factory, and
his successor, Brand Whitlock, novel;
list mayor of the Ohio city, assisted
him. Whitlock does other things which
lie outside of the beaten track. Next
fall Governor West Of Oregon will ride
horseback 500 miles from Salem, Ore,
to Boise, Ida, to attend a meeting of
western governors. On the way he
will deliver good roads speeches.

The Cane Crop.


Louisiana Planter.
Several days of dry and sunshiny
weather have been enjoyed by our
sugar planters during the past week
and the opportunity was eagerly i'm
proved to get busy in the fields, with
the result that the general appear
ance Of things agricultural has mark
eddy improved and material advances
have been made in the matter Of field
work. The stubble cane, which was
q cause Of some anxiety, ia now re-
ported to be showing up In a tolera-
bly, satisfactory manner. The spring
plant is perhaps giving the most
ground for apprehension Of any part
Of the crop. It was SO late in being
planted and was put in the ground
under such unfavorable conditions
that until our planters see it marking
the rows some doubt will exist as to
its ever making a satisfactory stand.
It is q little too early yet to say much
about spring plant cane. Fall plant
cane is the best portion of the crop,
and is, as a rule, showing up well,
marking the rows generally through
out the sugar district.
