A LOST OPPORTUNITY.

Supt, Harris issues a circular let
ter descriptive of the agricultural
school at Sugartown, Calcasieu par
ish. The account is too verbose for
publication in these columns, but it
gives an inspiring picture of a school
adapted to the needs of rural com
munity. 1t provo in addition to
book learning, instruction for the
boys in shop work, and home econo'
mics for girls, such as cooking, serv'
ing and sewing. The appointments
are up to date and sanitary.
When one thinks that had only a
little unanimlty of spirit prevailed in
the locality most to be benefited such
description could as easily have
been written about such an agricul
tural school in the Fifth Ward OF
West Feliciana, it makes one right
heart-sick. 1t is such pity that PEG
pie can be so blind to their owr

AS A WARNING TO OTHERS.

l.. C. Zebal of Baton Rouge has
been sentenced to five years in the
penitentiary for violating the age of
consent law. Judge Brunot, after
hearing the prisoners personal plea
for mercy, pronounced the sentence
in these words:
Louis, / have known you for III
teen years. l have known your fam
lily. The personal ties therefore make
my duty much harder. Your wife
and your mother have both made ap-
peals to me for mercy-appeals that
have appealed to my synpathfes
strongly But these appeals are bas'
ed on sentiment. Mine is hard du-
ty, imposed by the law. 1t is my du'
ty to give you such a sentence that
it will be a warning to other men. l
therefore sentence you to five years
in the State Penitentiary." The
sentence imposed by the court Is the
limit allowed by law.

Senate finance committee a protes
against "free sugar." which he char
acterized as "a threat Of the extinc
ton of the industry"
"The production of sugar" said DR.
Wiley, "whetherit be from beet O.
cane, requires the highest type of in
tensiye culture that science has beef

sugar would deal to the agriculture
industries of this country will be onl
partly felt by those directly engage

VAINLY TRIED HOLD-UP.

The Times-Democrat of WedneS-
day has a special from Hammond,
La, concerning two city boys who
attempted to hold-up young lady
near that town, namely Miss Mary
Fluker, whose family is prominent in
the annals of the Felicianas. The
story runs thus:
"The youths called at the home of
w. J. Fluker, several miles west of
Hammond some time early this morn
ing. They asked for food and Cal
houn Fluker,' the baseball pitcher
who happened to be at home, took
them in and fed them Fluker was
summoned to neighbours place
some distance away, while the boys
were in the house. He left after
their departure land the youths watch
ed him, from the woods in the real
of the place. Miss Fluker was left
en- the place alone, and knowing
she was unprotected, the would-be
robbers returned and demanded mon
ey. Upon being refused, they an
nounced their determination tx
search the house, and started to car
ry out their threat, when Miss Flu
ker confronted them with a shotgun
Their nerve failed them at this I'm
expected resistance, and they tool
to their heels. Officer Meyers was
notified, and arrested the boys
few hours later. They admitted try
ing to rob the Fluker home, claiming
that they We're hungry, and needed
the money for provisions on thei
trip through the country. Their cas-
probably will be taken to the dis
trict court of Amite.'

SHOULD THE BAR RULE?

Shreveport Times:
With but few exceptions, lawyers
are opposed to the recall as applied
to the judiciary or as applied to jul
dicial decisions, as suggested by Col.
Roosevelt. In this view they are
Joined by conservative citizens
throughout the country. Their oppo-
sition is based upon the contention
that the courts should follow the law
rather than become subject to pass
ing waves of popular sentiment found
ed often upon prejudice or passion
Are lawyers inconsistent when they
oppose the recall of judges by the
people and propose the selection OF
Judges by themselves? 1t will be
said, possibly, that the members OF
the bar do not propose to select the
Judges, but merely to indorse the
candidates they consider best fittec
for judicial positions. That is beg
ging the question for the intent anc
the effect of such Endorsement is tt
select. That the voters themselves
are inclined to resent recommends
tons by the bar in judicial elections
has been made manifest in more thai
one instance in Louisiana. This il
especially true when the bar itseI
is divided, as isnearly always tn
case. 1t would seem to follow, then
that judicial offices are no more t
be made subject to the "fNful i'm
pulse of temporary majority G
the bar than to such impulse on tn
t part of a temporary majority" c
the voters. 1t is a poor rule tina
won't work both ways.

PROTEST AGAINST PLAN TO ELM
MATE 1T AT THE MACON
REUNION.

Macon, Feb. 29-Throughout the
South rong sentiment is forming
agains+ The proposed plan of aoolish-
ing tic parade of the veterans at the
reunion of the United Confederate
veterans in Macon.
This idea was launched officially
by Lieutenant General G. Irvine
Walker of Charleston, S. c., COM
mander in chief of the veterans, when
he visited Macon last week and thru
his influence and presence the eXecu-
tive committee for the reunion adopt
ed the formal set of plans, eliminating
the parade.
Protests against this plan are being
received from all over the South, and
it appears to be the consensus of
opinion chat the execution of this idea
will be body blow to the reunion,
deterring thousands of people, includ-
ing many veterans from coming to
Macon.
An idea of the strength of the feel
ing row crystalizing may be gained
from the following story sent out by
Associated Press:
New Orleans, La, Feb. 2S. - The
sug gestion of General C. Irvine
Walker, commander in chief of the
United Confederate veterans, that
veterans do not participate in any
parades at the coming reunion at
Macon, Ga, has caused more or less
unfavorable discussion among the
veterans of this section.
MY opinion is that if there is no
parade of the veterans, said Captain
J. G. Dinkins of this city last night,
there will be no reunion. The chief
incentive to attendance at reunion
is The expectation of being able to
once more march side by side with
! comrades of other states. 1t will be
sad disappointment to many of the
old fellows, my comrades
Here in Macon the veterans are
strenuously opposed to the plan as
adopted and some even express them
selves to the effect that General
Walker has unnecessarily interfered
with a privilege belonging exclusively
to Macon, that of arranging for the
handling of the reunion.
Capt. J. w. Wilcox, one of General
| Walkers stanchest and Oldest friends
in this city, says that he is unalterably
opposed to the project of abolishing
the parade.
