Theriot Canal Closed.

Several hundred men and
much material was utilized
for the closing Of the Theriot
canal, about three miles above
Raceland. This canal was
cut several years ago, just at
ter Bayou Lafourche was
damned at DonalGsonville,
for the purpose Of allowing a
sufficient inflow o. fresh wa
ter to keep salt water out of
Bayou Lafourche, but as it
would now allow Of too great
a flow from the Hymelia Gre
vase, it was thought advisa :
lie to take steps to have it
closed.

that no great issue is at stake
in the amendment Itself
The South with ouly one
party, has long had the popu
lar election Of senators. The
western states, with. two par
ties, have evolved many diff
ferent plans, Of which that of
Oregon is the most complete,
for accomplishing the same
purpose in evasion Of the con
stitutionai intent. And the
western system is creeping
eastward. Legislative cleo
ton Of senators is about as
dead as the electoral college
in president making, and to
this conclusion the country
might just as we'll adjust
itself.
While few legislatures are

adoption earlier than that in
relation to the income tax,

at least. will be the case, ii

Bob Broussard Turns
Down Round Robin.

yhe political game which
was attempted by a numbef
of members of the General
Assembly, in asking Robert
F. Broussard not to run for
Congress, on the ground that
he was United States Senator
elect and that he would lower
the dignity of the high office
by consenting to run for Con
gress while awaiting his term
of Senator to commence, was
knocked into a cooked hat
last Monday. Congressman
Broussard in answer to a let
ter signed by forty four mem
bers of the Legislature, very
politely declined to be advised
by them and in a straight
ward manner, reiterated his
statement that he is a candi
date for Congress to succeed
himself. He made it very
plain that whether or not he
would be sent to Congress
during the interim of his term
for Senator, was not a ques
ton for the Legislature to
decide, but solely a question
for the people of the Third
Congressional district TO
settle.
There is not the least doubt
now that Congressman Brous
sard will be re elected to
Congress, as it is the general
opinion throughout the Third
District, where politics is not
considered, that it would be
a serious mistake as we'll as

In The Wake Of The
Water.

The Mississippi river is re.
writing her own history. Six
weeks ago she broke all pre-
vions high water records, and
she is still on the rampage,
The levees have gone down
before the force Of the torrent
as though they were mud
banks made by children at
play. Rivermen and plant
ers, who have watched the
great stream for half a centu-
ry, say that never before have
conditions existed as now ex-
list along the banks Of the
lower river.
The government is treating
the results, but no effort is
being made to get at the cause
Of the trouble. The War De-
partment is providing food
and shelter for more than lOO.-
900 people. Up to the first Of
May the Quartermaster'S De-

the planters and farmers
whose lands are inundated is
much greater than during
previous floods, because the
season will BIZ much further
advanced when the water re-
cedts. Cotton planting must

Senators BY Popular

Editorial in Boston Herald
An amendment to the ;onsti
