PUBLIC MARKET
Keep Wagons off Street
Other Changes Likely.

Public market conditions are to
be improved this year. Members Of
the Board Of Aldermen last night be-
gan work on proposition to re-
lieve congestion on Maple street on
market days and discussed the open
ing of an additional market on Penn
street. near Hall avenue. They in
tend to abandon stalls on Map.s
Street. and probably Jefferson street.
and prohibit farmers from keeping
their rigs on those streets.
The object 10 to lessen danger 1
loss Of life and property by run
aways and hres. 1t has been pointed
out to the city fathers that q care
lessly driven rig or = runaway horse
might do great damage, and that it
would be next to impossible for ave
apparatus to 60 over the streets On
market days. To that end, rules and
regulations may be adopted to keep
farmers rigs and their products on
property abutting on those streets.
The subject was placed in the
hands Of Aldermen Kutcher and VII
son, and Henry loft. the superin-
tendent OF weights and measures.
who has charge of the market. Mr..
Toft viii, present hts suggestions
and recommendations In that re-
spect in writing to the Council at Its
scheduled meeting Monday night.
At that time the Council may also
receive petition for the proposed
additional market place. Residents
or the northern and northwestern
sections of the city request the ex-
tension. Under new rules such q
market may be established to be
open ON Thursdays. The principal
market place may be operated on
Tuesdays and Fridays.

air and light in the stable, the kind
of floor and the painting OF the sta

dairies In this city whose condition
is so that the milk could not ne

The Laws Delay.

New Orleans Picayune.
A prominent member of the New York
bar has been giving large attention to the
study of the dispatch of business in the GRIM
inal courts of this country and of Europe,
particularly England, and it is stated that he
is convinced that if we remodeled our court
practice on that of England two thirds of
the criminal courts could be abolished and
three fourths of the time economical, saw
ing so per cent of judicial cost and more
than that proportion of the expense of liti-
giants. By this reform, he says, we would
gain ST, 0O0, 900 day.
He watched the course of fifty criminal
trials in London and observed that nearly
all the defendants pleaded guilty, knowing
that subterfuge would be in vain. Seven
times as many plead guilty in England as
in the United States, and witnesses not only
fear to perjure themselves, but lawyers do
not venture to introduce a periuring wit
ness.
There are, according to the figures of this
practical observer, fourteen times as many
murders in this country as in the United
Kingdom, with only 40 per cent of popula-
ton. In the year 1911, $500 murders oc-
Cured in the United States, and Justice
grows more hating and dilatory than ever
1t is only lynch law that is dealt out prompt
| ly. The regular sort deals in delay
In England delay in murder trials is not
tolerated. An English attorney is not per-
mitted to make objections intended to dis
tract the mind of jurors from the issue of
guilt or innocence. In the recent trial of
gunner in New York the lawyers for the
defense submitted 1000 grounds for appeal.
In appeals it is claimed that technicalities.
even to the dotting of an i, may cause the
reversal of a judgment in some of our
States.

Louisiana Brigade Commanders

Editor Bosser Banner Benton, La.
Dear Sir: Permit me to correct some
errors in reference to the two Louisiana
brigades in Virginia. Taylor's First Lou
isiana Brigade consisted of the Sixth,
Seventh, Eighth and Ninth Louisiana Reg
iments, to which was added the Fifth Lou
isiana Regiment. Gen. Hays commanded
this brigade until late in the war. The
Second Louisiana Brigade was composed
of the First, Second, Tenth, Fourteenth
and Fifteenth Regiments of Louisiana
Infantry. Its first commander was Gen.
Starke, killed at Sharpsburg; second, Gen.
Nichols, disabled at Charlottesville, and
Gen. Stafford, killed in Wilderness cam
paign in 1864, think. Hays was disabled
near Spotsylvania Court House. The two
Louisiana brigades were consolidated and
afterwards commanded by Brigadier- Cen
eral York, former colonel of the Fourteenth.
For while the Ninth was in Starke's
Brigade, but was afterwards sent to Hays,
and the Fourteenth transferred from Hays
to Nichols Brigade. Col. Jesse Williams
of DeSoto Parish, and colonel of the Sec
ond Louisiana, was oftener in command OF
the Second Brigade, until his death on May
IL, 1854, than all its brigadiers together
He was as cool in battle and under fire as
any man in Lees Army and should have
been made brigadier, but he was not a
West Pointer, and so died only colonel
but as good and brave one as Louisiana
or any other State furnished to the Con
federacy.
These facts are as recollect them, and
as told me by survivors of the Wilderness
Campaign. GEORGE L. WOODWARD.

How Our Practices Have CHANGED.

Baton Rouge Country Review
When our Government was young and
in its pristine purity men considered the
conservation of the general welfare as the
paramount duty of the legislator and the
public official. Economy was then card
inal viture and men were as jealous of the
public funds as they were of their own.
Now, among the masses the hallmark of
accomplished craftsmanship is experiences
in the use of the Jimmy" upon the pub
lie treasury, and that legislator is the big
gest statesman who can make the biggest
dent in the peoples till. Men no longer
are content to become statesmen by hard
and unselfish service to the whole people,
but irresponsible extravaganza with the
peoples funds and regional craftsmanship,
rather than national craftsmanship, are
responsible for the fact that billion dollar
Congresses are now tame and tawdry affairs
and that State Legislatures in apprpriating
money pay no attention to the condition of
the public f1sc.

THE CHEERFUL VIEW.

s'Laugh and the world laughs with you;
weep and you weep alone. The assertion
is not argument-proof,b but at least it places
the proper emphasis on the value of the
habit of being cheerful.
1t is not necessary, however, to indulge
continuously in laughter. A pleasant smile
often means much more than laugh.
The smile, indeed, is good thing to have
around at all times, although, of course, it
is not desirable to wear perpetual grin
any more than repellant mask.
The happy influence upon human nature
of the genuine, cheerful smile cannot be
overestimated. Expressive, as it is, OF APP
probation, tender affection and all the
sweeter emotions, the smile is to the counte-
nance what the sunbeam is to the land
scape.
The loving smile and the gentle word
never come amiss in the family circle or in
social intercourse. In the sterner contact
of daily toll and business there is not so
much opportunity for these, but we all know
of their helpful influence at every time and
under every condition.
The man who smiles as he works can do
more in the same time and do it better than
the one who follows his pursuit in gloomy
sullenness.
1t is possible, of course, to be too en-
thusastic over the Importance of cheerful
ness. To confront every situation with a
cheerful grin is neither humanity possible
nor would it tend to effectiveness Of action.
Always to look for the silver lining that is
supposed to border every cloud, and not
take note of the cloud itself, would be
likely at times to prove mistaken policy.
But the habit of seeing the better side OF
everything, while giving certain neces-
sary attention to the other side, is one
which is very we'll worth the while of every
person to cultivate.
The person who has cheerful nature
the one who can smile when smiles are
helpful-is in possession of a very valuable
asset in life. 1t is positive duty, too, to
be cheerful when possible, and the occa-
sions when it is not possible are only those
exceptional ones when all rules fail.
