The Weather and the Crops.

New Orleans Picayune May 5: The
past week has been a period of fav-
orable weather in the cotton belt,
with the exception that tempera-
lures have been rather too low to
facilitate the termination of the
seed which has been planted or per-
nit the proper growth of the por-
ton of the crop which is already
above ground. Despite this draw
back, however, practically all sec
tions report good progress during
the week. The acreage guessers are
already at work, and the statements
so far issued differ so widely that
they convey no information. 1t is
yet too soon to estimate acreage
with any prospect OF accuracy, as
the crop is not yet all planted and
the extent of the increase in acre
age will depend largely on the
weather of the next few weeks.
While the floods in the Mississippi
River have overflowed a good deal
Of river cotton land, there is every
prospect that the water will run off
early enough to permit the planting
of crop, as was the case last year
There is no doubt that those sec
tons of Louisiana and Mississippi
which were ravaged by the boil
wecvil pest some years ago are in
| creasing acreage considerably, with
every prospect that all the old time
cotton lands will eventually be re-
| turned to cotton cultivation.
The corn crop is making progress
although the cool weather has re-
tarded it to some extent.

two years ago. 1t is planned to first
call an election to determine if we
are in favor of municipal owner
ship. II this vote shows that we are
not in favor of this principle, that
will efrectually dispose of the wa
terworks question. If we endorse
the municipal idea. then we are to
vote again on the question whether
or not we will buy the waterworks
plan-going all around the question
in order to eventually lead up to it
or keep away from it. | don't exactly
know which .C
"Of course this report may all be
rumor-I hope it is. am not
prophet enough to say what the
commissioners have in mind. but |
hope when the proposition is sub
mitted it will come straight-thal
we will be permitted to vote on the
question, shall the City of Shreve-
port acquire the Shreveport water
works system at the price named by
the board Of appraisers.
There is more truth than poetry
in the statement of Mr. Howe. Indi-
rectly there has been heard the un-
dertones of some of the politicians
and some of the leaders, as they are
styled who are figuring on two
propositions bearing on the water
works question being submitted at
one and the same time, which is OBJ
jectiOnable for many reasons, which
will be made plainly evident later.
1t is expected that the experts
who are to submit their report of
the valuation of the waterwOrks
plant, including the sewerage, may
report within a few weeks and that
after it shall have been received by
the Council it is to be left for rejec-
ton or adoption at an election to
be held for that purpose.
To say the least at this time, this
report must not be complicated
with some other issue or PROPOSE
| ton.
The gist of the contention may be
based on one clear issue.
Shall the report of the experts be
accepted or rejected? If it be ac-
cepted, it will then devolve on the
city to provide the ways and means,
by an issue of bonds, to acquire the
waterworks plant. If the PROPOSE
ton is rejected, the issue will be left
as it is now dnihe city, at some
later period, may devise some other
plans that will lead to the solving
of the waterworks problem.

The Citizens Duty.

Any person having knowledge OF
a commission of crime in the Parish
of Caddo has the right, without be-
ing summoned, to go before the
Grand Jury and disclose his knowl-
edge of the commission of said
crime. 1t is the duty of every mem
Der of your body to inform his fel-
lows of anyacrime or misdemeanor
committed within the parish since
the sitting of the last Grand Jury,
which may have come to his per-
sonal knowledge, or Of which he
may have been informed, and viO-
lation of this duty is criminal Of
fense.
It therefore follows that Grand
Jury may return an indictment into
court based on knowledge of the
facts by its members without hav-
ing any witnesses summoned before
that body.

No TrapperS License.

The Houma La Courier reports
that in the case of State vs.. Wilfred
King, Judge w. p. Martin handed
down a decision which if sustained
by the Supreme Court will abolish
the license imposed by the State
game law for trapping. Judge Mar
tin draws a distinction between q
hInter and trapper, and while ad-
mitting the right of the State. uEder
'his law, to levy ;cense for hunt.
ing, holds !hat provision is made Tor
= "llunu RS license al,.n...''
"Thc Standard Dis'innarv deflE.s
a hunter as being a person who
pursues game for the purpose OF
killing or catching; while trapper
is defined to be one whose occupa-
ton is the catching of fur-bearing
animals or game by means OF en-
snaring or trapping.
There seems therefore to be con-
siderable distinction between q
hunter and trapper, and the act
seems to make this distinction.
"The court is therefore of the
opinion that as the law makes no
provision for trapper's license, q
prosecution against one charged
with tripping must fall"

In his address to the jury, we'll di-

said:
Gentlemen of the Grand Jury: II
is your duty to inquire diligently IN
to all infractiOns of the law conf
miited within the limits of The Par
ish of Caddo since the meeting OF
the last Grand Jury, and to find bills
of Indictment against all offenders
against such laws.

taken binds you to present no one
through envy, hatred or malice, and
to leave no one unpresented through
fear, favor, affection, gain, reward
or hope thereof, but to present all
things truly and indiffercntly, as
they shall come to your knowledge,
according to the best of your un-
derstanding.
The law exacts of members OF the
Grand Jury a solemn oath not to
disclose the proceedings which
take place in the grand jury room.
Various reasons for enforcing this
secrecy have been given; as to keep
from an unarrested defendant the
knowledge which would suggest es-
cape,, to prevent defendants from
collecting perjured testimony for
the trial, and to render the wit
nesses before the Grand Jury more
free in their disclosures. Therefore,
the proceedings before your body
should be kept secret, and any vlo-
lation of this obligation by. any
member of your body or by any wit
ness is punishable as a grave con-
tempt OF court.

states:

Indictments.

There is no law which fixes the
nature or the quantity of the evil
dence on which the Grand Jury
must rest their conclusions. The
finding of a Grand Jury is not a
verdict or judgment. It amounts at
most to an accusation. At the same
time indictments found upon insult
ficient evidence, usually result in
mistrials and acquittals, consume
the valuable time of the court, and
entail heavy expenses upon the tax
payers of the parish, without ac-
complishing anything toward en-
forcement of the law and the pro-
lection of society. Therefore charge
you that you ought not TO find al
indictment unless in your judgment
the evidence before you, unex-
planned and uncOntradicted, wOult
warrant conviction by petit jury

A Defendants Right.

While defendant or an accused
party may not as a matter of right
have his witnesses heard by the
Grand Jury, yet, in reason, the ju-
rors do not we'll discharge their
duty if they refuse any testimony
leading to the real truth of case.
Therefore, if in the course of your
inquiries you have reason to believe
that there is other evidence, not
presented to you, within your reach
which would qualify or explain
away the charge under investiga-
ton, it will be your duty to order
such evidence to be produced. An
accused person can not be required
by the Grand Jury to testify before
that body against his protest and in
opposition to his express desire tc
avail himself Of his lawful and con-
stitutional privilege to decline tc
make answers as witness to any
questions that may tend to crimi-
nate tim. II a defendant appears be-

fore the Grand Jury he should be
informed that the Grand Jury is en-
gagged in the investigation of the
charge against him, and, conse-
quently, that he has the right TO de-
cline to make answers as a witness
to any question that may tend to
criminate him; but that if he un-
dertakes to make a statement as to
any part of the transaction he must
tell all that occurred during the
progress of said transaction that
came within his personal knOWl-
edge. otherwise an indictment found
upon such evidence would be un-
doubtedly vicious.
Duties OF the District Attorney.
The duty devolving upon the
prosecuting officer requires that he
shall examine witnesses, called
upon by the Grand Jury, and may
also attend in the performance of
this service when he judges proper.
He may be called upon for instruc-
tions, and he may also be present
to advise that body as TO the law
applicable to any case; but neither
the district attorney, sheriff or any
ether person, except members OF
the Grand Jury, should be present
during your deliberations or when
you determine whether or not to
return a true bill. Nine Of your
members constitute quorum and
must concur to find an indictment
or report on other matters.
Your foreman may administer the
oath required by law to all wit
nesses brought before your body.
You may adjourn for any time moi
> ceeding three days, without leave
Of the court, but for longer time
tnan three days the leave of the
Court must be had. "a
You will inspect the parish prison
end report to the court the manner
in which the prisoners are treated
You will report your proceedings
to the court from time to time and
include in such reports the cases
which have been ignored by your
body, Civ ing title Of case and Of
ftnse charged. In cases of murder
rape and other capital crimes NJ
person can be tried without the
sanction of your indictment, and nc
person indicted by you for an Of
fense of higher grade than a mis-
demeanor can be convicted excep
by the verdict of jetit jury. Hence
it follows that the administration ot
public justice devolves mainly OF
grand and petit juries, and unless
they do their full duty, the courts
however well constituted, are pow
