NOW JUDGE DUFFY.

Certainly do We sympathize with
Governor Luther Hall in his troubles
with the judgeship of our Recorders
Court, and we congratulate the Gov
ernor that John NJ. Duffy, of our dis
trict, should have accepted this posi-
ton and to have accommodated the
Governor to the extent of several
weeks inconvenience in order that a
thorough Democrat would occupy the
bench. We are not going to criticize
the Governor about the appointment OF
Mr.. Duffy. If Mr.. Duffy was a Michel
supporter he was a Democrat just the
same, and it was a Democrat that the
Governor was after this time, and not
Bull Mooser. Mr.. Duffy is one Of
our well-known representative citi-
zens and a valued employe of the
Southern Pacific Steamship Company,
and it will be the pleasure of his many
friends to speak of him in the future
as Judge Duffy. 1t is stated that Clerk
O'Keefe and Janitor Crombie will con-
tinue to hold their positions until such
time as the Commission Government
makes a change.

DRAINAGE BACK OF ALGIERs.

that the city contribute the amount of
$3.50 per annum toward the opera

mine Drainage District proposes to in
stall at the intersection of the BAYOU

purpose of draining and retaining the
entire section back of and below AL.
giers was considered by the water and
drainage committee of the Council at
a meeting held yesterday, and was ia
vorably reported. A. Hero, president
or the Jefferson-PlaQuemine District
Board, was present, and stated that
the establishing of the project means
millions of dollars to the parish of Or.
leans and the city of New Orleans. II
Will reclaim and make available for
cultivation about eleven thousand
acres of the most valuable and pro-
ductive land just back of Algiers. in
the parish of Orleans; about 9,1OO
acres in Jefferson parish and about
l1,1OO acres in the parish of PLAQUE
mines. He said the land that would be
reclaimed in Orleans parish alone
would add millions of dollars to the
property values of this parish, besides
enabling that splendid land to be put
under cultivation and to contribute to
the business and wealth of the CITY
proper. Superintendent George Earl,
OF the Sewer and Water Board, coin.
cided with the statements of Mr.. Hero
and said this was a most important
piece of work, but that in it's present
state of finances the Sewer and Water
Board is not able to finance it, and il
had, therefore, been referred to the
Council, with the hearty approval of
the mayor. He said it would not only
help the drainage system on the other
side of the river, but would add large
ly to land values.
