PENSIONS AND PENSIONS.

Pensions for justices of the
United States Supreme Count
after years of service. Or when
they have broken down physical
~ and are unable to perform all
the duties of that high office, are
being urged on Congress with ev-
cry probability of favorable ac-
ton. The mes-Democrat is no.
an advocate of civil pensions.
Our experience in regard to mill.
tary pensions has given us some
idea of the extent to which the
pension abuse is likely to be ear
ried if we begin to pension all
government employees, and the
general decentralization that will
ensue therefrom. Public opinion
is opposed to civil pensions, ana
has shwn itself unfavorably dis
posed even in the case of pen
sions for expresidents.
But the Justices of the Su-
preme Court occupy an entirely
different position, and the ex.
perience of England and the
United States has strongly rec
commended pensions, as not only
Ito these officials, but a eonven.
fence and benefit to the State and
to the community. The Times

The News-Star is opposed to
indiscriminate pensions We

WEEVIL. NOT ERADICATED.

Washington, Jan. lS.-ln talk
with Representative Ransdell to-
day, Bradford Knapp, chief Of
the farm demonstration division
of the Department of Agriculture,
sounded a note of warning to the
cotton planters not only of Lou
isiana, but of Mississippi and adj
joining areas in Arkansas and
Texas. What he desired the
planters in Louisiana in particu-
lar to remember is that the boil
wecvil has not been eradicated,
even from the sections of the cot
ton belt where none of the in
sects was found last season.
His injunction to all is to plant
on the assumption that the pest
will reappear during the coming
season, because the winter has
been mild In a good many spots
in the belt last season, the in
festation was great enough to
make it certain that during the
mild winter the pest has multi
piled, so that unless the planters
take pains with their crop, condi-
tons will be lamentabel.
In particular he hopes they
will put in at least half their
acreage with short staple quick
maturing seed. He has heard
that many of the planters are
contemplating putting in only
long staple. and that does not ap.
peal to him. In that view. Mr..
Ransdell agrees with Mr.. Knapp.
The Senator elect, even before he
had the talk, had come to the
conclusion that it was the thing
TO do. Neither Mr.. Ransdell nor
Mr.. Knapp believes it will be wise,
this year, to put all the eggs in
one basket.
BY taking the precautions sug
gested, Messrs. Ransdell and
Knapp believe the evil the mild
winter has done i'm the way of
giving the weevil an extension OF
tenure will be minimized, If not
wholly neutraiiyed.

WHEN GUILT IS IMPERSONAL

To say "Guilt is always per
sonal' sounds plausible; but IT Is
by no means true, Very often
guilt is merely social. Some
years ago a great railroad was Tor

States court. All its acts were
subject to review and under the
general direction of the court /;
virtually the railroad was ope-
rated by the court itself 1t was

so far as we know-that while SO
operated by the court this rail
road paid several million dollars
in rebates souarely in violation
of the law.
Everybody did it then. For
years after the law forblddlny
rebates was passed every railroad
and nearly every bic shipper VIC
lated it daily and everybody
knew it. BY common consent
the law was a dead letter. There
was guilt, but it was not per
sonal. The country itself was
guilty of violating its own law

Every boy wishes to be man,
but the measure of a man is not
that of age, nor strength, nor
stature, nor possessions, nor po-
sition. That which makes man
is quality of spirit; it is cour-
age, honor, integrity of charac-
ted. and the resolute purpose to
know what is true, and to do what
is right. The central quality of
manliness around which all 9th
ers must be built up is that of a
sense of honor.-Crowley Signal.

THE MOVEMENT FOR BETTER
ROADS.

Last Saturday several members
of the Police Jury, accompanied
bv few interested and public
spirited citizens, Journeyed t'
Patoutville where Good Roads
meeting was addressed by Faith
or Girault. DR.. II. A. King AND
Messrs. Jules Dreyfus. A. n. Mul.
Ter and Fred Decourt. Much in.
terest was manifested by those
present and the proposition to
raise money for road construction
by issuing bonds, received the
approval of all present. The
members of the Police Jury now
serving are all pledged to the
Improvement of the public high
WAYS of this Parish and they arc
devoting much time and study to
this problem which is sure to re
suit i'm the betterment of condi-
tions. In the vicinity of New
Iberia, Mr.. William Lourd has
been at work for several months
repairing and reconstructing the
roads leading into town, and
these are now in better condition
than for years past. Recently,
with the assistance of the City.
canal was dug in the rear OF
the corporate limits leading from
the Salt Mine branch to the City
Canal and that has relieved a
large area Of waters which here
tofore inundated that section aft
err each rain. At present, Mr..
Shields, the Assistant State High
way Engineer is making surveys
of the roads leading out to Burke
Station and to Petit Ansc
and is to survey and map the
proposed new road to connect
with the St. Martinville road.
Proper drains are being located
in these surveys, grades establish
ed and estimates furnished which
will enable the Jury to- do the
work intelligently and economi-
cally if permitted to do so. With
this end in view, they seek au-
thorily to issue bonds which will
provide the funds for the carry
ing out these plans and permit
the continuance of the work to
every road in the Parish AS the
proposition to provide for the re
tirement of these proposed bonds
does not contemplate the leveeing
of a single cent of additional
taxes; but simply the segrega-
ton of three mills of the present
ten mills paid into the Parish
Treasury and its dedication to
that purpose for twenty years; it
is hard to conceive of a reason
which could induce amy tax pay
err to oppose the plan.
Weekly meetings for the pur-
pose of explaining the Police
Jury's attitude, and to discuss
road matters in general, are being
held weekly in the different
Wards. To-day, j. j. Olivier's
place at Lydia will be the scene
of activity. Next week at Lo-
reauvile. later Jeanerette, Petit
Anse and the Coteau will be visit
ed; and finally. with big rally
in New Iberia, these meetings will
terminate. BY that time we trust
that all will be so enthused over
good roads and the demand for
them so insistant. that their ac
complishment will soon follow.

last May with John Burns, are held
by the mounted police suspected Of
being implicated in Burns murder last
August. The men held are Oscar Nell

son. The Canadian officers admit the
evidence Is not strong enough against
any OF them to warrant holding them
longer than for an examination, and
the police have written here several
times for information on different
matters. They state that Burns was
to have received some money on a

Is supposed to have arrived about the
time Of his murder. The police also
state that It has been established that

Uses Deitz Method


Darlington, N. D., Nov. 17.-Sherin
Morgan ran into a regular little fort

attachment on some property in the
possession of Rudolph Horesji, the
farmer did not like to see the proper
ty taken away from him by the sher"
if, nor did his wife, and both appear
ed with loaded guns. The sheriff, how
ever, secured the goods and returned
there and arrested Horesji for embez'
element. The charge was preferred
by Chas. Vasmicius of St. Paul.
Horesji is accused of selling grain
that did not belong to him, he holding
the farm on a crop payment plan. He
was offered his liberty if he would put
up a bond to cover the amount In
volved, and the freedom would have
allowed him to sell some Of his own
grain to meet his obligations. The
bond has not been effected and he is

(From MONDAYS Daily.)

A. H. Gray, senior partner of the
firm of A. H. Gray & Son, stated today
that the firm Saturday enjoyed one Of
the largest, il not the largest sales
since taking over the business of the
Algeo meat market.
Mr.. Gray would not say for public
use the total sales of the day, but as
sures the Times Record that it was
a tremendous success from every
point Of view, and that from morning
until night the store was comfortably
filled with bargain hunters and care
full buyers.
While a large share of the success
of the sale is due to the quality of the
goods sold, and the firms reputation
for fair dealing and honest goods, Mr..
Gray lays a considerable share Of the
credit for the crowds to the Times Re-
cord as an advertising medium. Mr.
Gray secured his publicity through the
columns Of this paper, and states that
the resulting big day is evidence to
him that the Times Record is read in
the greater share Of Valley City homes
and that using its columns brings OK
cellent returns for the investment.
