flag of Lyles' Arkansas Regiment was torn
into tatters by the enemy's shots, and when
last seen the brave color bearer, Herbert
Sloane, of Company D, was going over the
breastworks waving piece over his head
and shouting for the Southern Confeder-
acy.
The Confederate loss at Corinth was very
severe. Three of the five regimental com
manders in Gen. John C. Moore's Brigade,
Gen. Dabney H. Maury's Division, were
either killed or wounded. More than hall
the line officers of Prices splendid army
were killed or wounded. Gen. Van Dorm
reported 594 killed, 2,162 wounded, 2, 1O2
prisoners and missing. The enemy's loss
in killed and wounded, by their own ac-
counts, was over 5000. The Confederates
took over 300 prisoners.
The last engagement in the vicinity Of
Corinth was on the 9th at Davis Bridge
on the Hatchie River, some ten miles from
Corinth, where Ord and Hubert disputed
the passage of the Confederate troops ove
the bridge on their retreat to Ripley ant
Holley Springs. Here, much severe fight
ing took place, and the Federal command
er, Ord, was wounded. After this fight
the Confederates resumed their march un
molested-the bluecoats keeping at re
spectful distance.

The Straw Hat Rebellion.

Referring to the idiotic custom of street
loafers assaulting those who wear straw
hats after the 10Th of September, or the
close OF the straw hat season, the Memphis
Commercial Appeal says:
Last year the war against the straw hat
became so strenuous that authorities in
New York, Washington and Philadelphia
decided to take vigorous stand against
the disorder that has on more than one oc-
casion resulted in bloodshed.
The season of the straw hat is over, but
a man has right to wear straw hat all
winter if he feels so inclined. It is for the
man himself to say what shall be done, and
not the half-grown DULLES who loaf about
the street corners and derive an impish sat-
isfaction from destroying the hats that
appear on the streets.
On Sunday, in Philadelphia, the police
sent out special plain clothes men in straw
hats, with the result that twenty two Of
tenders were arrested, charged with assault
and battery. The next morning these boys
found that their prank cost each S25.

AS an illustration of Northern abuse and
Misrepresentation of the public men from
the South-almost from the beginning of
the Government-we quote the following
paragraph from sermon of the late
T. Dewitt Talmage on The Presidency:
At the time of his nomination, the de-
risive cry was, Who is James K. Polk?'
although he had been long while in the
councils of the nation and Speaker of the
House of Representatives. l Twill tell you,
at this late age of the world, who James K.
Polk was. He was the man who annexed
Texas, one of the richest States of the
Union, and, more than any other man of
this century, made it possible for US to own
everything between the Atlantic and the
Pacific Coast. And yet, during his admin
ministration, there were millions of men
who never spoke of him but with smear
of contempt

Fifty two Texas cotton farmers, repre-

bales were in New Orleans last week to see
what inducements could be offered them

Planters in Ascension cannot afford to
start their sugar mills before November 1st,
and it is likely that the grinding campaign
will not continue longer than forty-fv to
sixty days, except at those plants which
have contracted to handled large amount
of imported cane.
Burney Latour, a thirteen year-old white
boy living at Welsh, accidently shot him
self while out hunting Wednesday of last
week, and died shortly after being found
near the public road, where he lay for ten
hours too weak to call for assistance. The
lad was too far gone to explain how the
accident occurred.
The Louisiana Planter of Saturday says:
Every one has made up his mind to short
cane crop and the only element of further
hope or uncertainty is whether or not the
grinding season will be propituous and the
canes high in sucrose. Cuba continues to
hold out excellent prospects for large
sugar crop and, generally speaking, Lou
isana is the only country reporting dis
couraging conditions.

Press Comment on the Tax Amendment.

East Carroll Banner Democrat: Every
Constitutional Amendment is good one
and there is not one of the whole lot that
is not for the good of the object that it is
proposed for. The voter will not do wrong
if he puts his mark (X) opposite each one.
Mansfield Enterprise: For years we
have heard talk of a general reform in tax
alton but now for the first time, it is within
the grasp of the people, with every indica-
ton that it will be put into effect. We hope
there will not be single vote against the
measure in DeSoto Parish.
Claiborne Guardian journal: There is
practically no opposition to the tax amend
ment any where in the State so far as shown
by the papers, except from corporations
and office holders, We have not yet read
a single argument or contribution against
it from private individuals who have read
or informed themselves as to the meaning
of the amendment.
Shreveport Journal: There is no ques-
ton that the change in the system is vast
improvement over the present mode OF
raising taxes for State purposes. BY the
adoption of the constitutional amendment
we will have absolute home rule in the
matter of assessments and raising revenue,
which is certainly a contamination devout-
ly to be desired, and it cannot be obtained
as long as we have general property State
tax to contend with. The adoption of the
amendment will exempt all real estate
from payment of any State tax whatever
and this will certainly be long step in
the right direction, for relieving the burden
of taxation on the people.

In August Mississippi shipped to ST..
Louis $3.50 head of cattle. This is 827
head more than during the same month of
1911. "Stock raising is a promising in
dustry in the South,'' says the New Or

little expensive to have to pay freight on
our cattle to St. Louis, in order to sell
them, and then pay freight on the meat
after it is butchered.''

The State guarantees to reimburse the
parishes which lose by the adoption of the
new system. We are assured that the new
system will compel interests which have
heretofore evaded taxation to bear their
share of the burden of supporting the gov
eminent. Moreover, the guarantee of
home rule in taxation-ap principle we have
long contended for in all public affairs
appeals to us as one of the best provisions
of the measure. Again, it will unques-
tionably rebound to the advantage of the
parishes and land owners, generally, to
have all real estate exempted from the pay
ment of any State tax whatever, if the tax
amendment is adopted. We favor the
amendment, and believe its adoption will
rebound "to the greatest good to the great
