THE STATE DEBT ORDINANCE.

The Constitutional Convention
has finally adopted the ordinance
providing for the refunding of the
state debt. The ordinance provides
for the issuance of n long-term, fifty
one year 4 1-2 per cent serial bond,
and also a shOrt-term 8 per cent
bond of not more than five years
duration to be issued in case the en-
tire issue Of serial bonds cannot be
negotiated by January 1, when the
State debt falls due. The ordinance
sets aside | 3-20 mills of the State
tax to be used for payment of in
terest and maturing the bonds, but
provides that this fixed tax must
be part of the 6 mills to which State
taxation is limited. From the Pic
ayune we learn that: Besides The
bankers, lawyers, actuaries and
mathematicians that have worked
on this measure, bond experts have
been here { Baton Rouge) from New
York, Cincinnati, Chicago and other
places and have analysed and dis
sected the ordinance, all of whom
pronounce it waterproof and fully
able to stand any test. Under its in
viting provisions, it is now predicted
that the long term bond issue will
be sold at around 81 IL or SO, and
that it will not be necessary to ne
gotiate the short term bonds"

THE LOUISIANA CONVENTION.

There will be held at New Orleans
on November Doth, a convention to
be known AZ the Louisiana cnnven-
ton which will consider the petition
ing of Congress for the early enact
ment of the Ransdell Humphrey bill
for completing the levee system.
The convention will be held un-
der the auspicies of the New Orleans
Board of Trade and viii be made up
of representatives of Louisiana cities,
commercial organizations, Levee
Boards, Policie Juries and all others
interested. Invitations have been
issued by the President of the Board
OF Trade to the various bodies emu
merated to send delegates to the con-
vention and it is hoped and believed
that a large and representative con-
vention will be the result.
The Gazette has had occasion here
tofore to comment on the Ransdell-
Humphreys bill and to give it un-
quallned approval and endorsement.
The bill is a practical proposition
to solve the problem of flood protec-
ton from the Mississippi river. 1t
appropriates $40, 1000, 900 for levees
and s15, 900, 900 for bank protection
to be expended in next five years; all
the surveys, estimates, and data re-
quired to intelligently begin at once
and complete the work contemplated
by the bill have already been made
! by the engineers and the passage OF
the bill means simply that the mon
ey to complete the levee system in
five years will be Immediately avail
able.
We, therefore, cordially and en-
Enthusiastically welcome the conven-
ton and trust that not only will our
levee board, our towns and our po-
lice juries appoint delegates, but
that those who are honored with
such appointments will attend the
convention and make it great sue
cess.

We publish below the statement

ant employed by the Receivers of

ment does not throw much light on
the subject and leaves depositors as
much in the dark as to what divi-

before the statement came out. The
accountant promises us TO file, at
an early date, detailed statement,
and after that is: done, and the
character of the collateral held as

of the Banks condition and what

The Director of Census gives the
following figures of cotton ginned in
Tensas parish up to November LIST,
OF this year as compared with The
amount ginned last year up to the
same date: Bales ginned this year:
1879; Bales ginned last year: 2905.
These figures do not give any in
dication as to the final results of this
crop as compared with that of last
year because the picking of cotton
has been so much delayed this year
by the bad weather which prevailed
from the beginning Of the picking
season up to the last few weeks.
However, the figures do show that
the crop of 1913 will be a record
breaker in the way of the smallest
yield this parish has ever known.

lEVEE NOTES.

Linnan Brothers, the prominent levee
contractors, have finished the work at
Kempe's levee and will move out from
there this week.
This most important work was begun
by Messrs. Linnan ON October 3 d and
contained some 10000 yards and the
quiekness with which the work was done
is very creditable to the contractors. 1t
Is now thought that this levee which has
caused so mnch anxiety in the last two
floods is in first class condition.
