THE ATTORNEY GENERAL S
POSITION.

The Shreveport journal has al-
ways been a supporter OF Cover
nor Hall and has frequently sup
ported him in his suggestions.
But the idea Of compromising the
Tensas land grab case does not APP
peal to Editor Frantz, yho edl-
torially prints the following:
"When the people of Louisiana
elected Ruffin &. Pleasant OF
Shreveport to the position of at
torney of the state, they chose
man who believes in hewing
straight to the line, permitting
the chips to fall where they wall.
He has shown this all along In his
actions as a member of the pardon
board and he shows the same de-
termination in his latest announce
ment concerning the Tensas land
case
4" The state has charged that
there was fraud and corrrptlon
i'm the making Of this deal, and so
far as | am concerned, it is PLAIN
to me that, as the attorney repre-
senting the petitioner, ! can con
sistcntly see a compromise effect
ed says the attorney general In
reply to a question as to whether
or not he will agree to cOmprOm-
ise Of the matter between the Ten
sas Delta Land Company and the
state of Louisiana. 1t is charged
specifically by the state that the
Tensas levee board several years
ago entered into a corrupt agree
ment whereby vast tract OF land
was sold to the Tensas Delta
Land Company for mere song
The names of the givers and the
receivers of this corrupt fund
have been included in the charges
of the state in the courts. 1T
| there was taint of fraud in the
transaction, then the whole con
| tract between the levee board and
the land company is null and void
and the state is entitled to re-
cover the full amount in vOlved
in the alleged crooked deal.
eve cannot help feeling that
: Attorney General Pleasant is
right in the attitude he has as
sumed in this matter. 1t is often
better toscompromise, even at a
loss, than to go into court and
takcsckHHces--sbut-it-is -is never wist
| or right to compromise where
| there is a arestiOn of principle in
| volved. Were this case matter
| of simply dollars and cents,
compromise would be entirel!
right and proper, but as it,
stands, we do not see how the at
torney general. under his oath
could take anv other stand. -

The Rusk (Tex.) Press-.Jornal

The Rusk TEX Press-Journal
says: "The prosperity of a town
is not eauged by the wealth OF its
inhabitants, but by the uniformity
with which they pull together
when any important undertaking
is to be accomplished. "A man
with 81 900 at his command and
a love for his town in his heart
can do more for its upbuilding
than the millionaire who locks up
his capital and snaps his fingers
at home enterprise. I" 1t is too
often the case that the man who
has already made his "pile
shows monumental relfishness
towards the city or state in which
he accumulated his fortune.

CONSIDER FRANCHISES OF
TRACTION COMPANIES.

Abbeville, March 25.-The city
council met last night to consider
the matter of granting fl anchises
over certain streets to the South
western Traction and Power Co.,
which proposes to build here from
New Iberia. and the Louisiana
Traction and Power Company,
now locating its permanent line
from Lafayette. Owing to the
fact that the latter company
was not prepared to designate ats
proposed route. and in order to
avoid any possible conflict in the
choice of streets to be traversed,
it was resolved to defer the mat.
ter until next Monday. when the
question will be disposed OF def,
