BOND PROPOSITIONS.
The Election Resulted i'm Some Sur
prises-The Unexpected-The Of
fetal VerificatiOn in Progress.

The elections on Tuesday resulted
in the unexpected and to some sur
prises. The vote in numbers and
in valuation was less than had been
anticipated. A great number failed
to vote by delay. AS announced, the
polls were opened at 7 am. and
closed at 5 pm. Many of the voters
reached the polls after pm. and
therefore were, too late.
The defeat of the proposition to
acquire the Schumpert Park tract
and the Schumpert home place was
a surprise and great disappOint-
ment to the officials and directors
|of the State Fair Association.
The official count as completed is
for the Schumpert Park proposition
by 80 majority of the number of
votes cast and $6i5,543 against in
tax valuation. To carry a PROPOSE
ton there must be voted majority
in numbers as we'll as taxable val
uatiOn.
The market house proposition
was overwhelmed in defeat. The
burial of this proposition beyond
the possibility of resurrection was
evident before the day of the elec-
ton, notwithstanding the desperate
efforts of its advocates. A hundred
and fifty thousand dollar market
house was too much for the City oil
Shreveport. In securing the defeat
IOf the proposition the Caucasian
was not idle. The inadvisability as
well as the undesirability of such a
market house was made plain. The
IcOntentiOn of the Caucasian against
the market house was direct, anG

The j. NJ. Wise Case.

Against Assistant Street Commits
sioner J. M. Wise there has been
filed charges of discredit, which in
substance are that in voting proxies
he increased the taxable valuation
|of the proxies he held, which he de-

that he did not juggle with the fig
ures, but comedies that he may have
inadvertently been careless, but il
the figures are raised it must not be
charged to any intent at wrong
doing but to carelessness.
These raised tickets were voted Al
Wards Seven and Eight. When they
were found in the boxes in which
they were voted, Commissioner Ep-

vexed and wrote at once letter tG

resignation, and informing him thai

HOBSON'S PROBE.
.
Has Charged That Washington Po-
lice Failed9 to Protect Women.

1t has been reported from Wash
lington that Charges that the police
of Washington did not properly pro-
| tect Mondays suffragist street pa
rade were made in the House Tues
day by Representative Hobson OF
Alabama, who later declared that he
proposed to ask for an investigation
| of the police department during the
extra session. Mr.. HObsOn told the
House that the congressional section
of the parade led by Representative
Rucker of Colorado comprised a
score of senator's and representa-
tives, who, starting at arms length
and four abreast finally were crowd
ed into single file by the crowding
of spectators and that the police
scOffed with the ruffians.
Il have been called over the tele-
phone," said Mr.. HObson, land told
by lady that her daughter was on
one of the floats in the parade and
that a ruffian climbed On the float
and insulted her."
Her daughter ought to have been
at home," interjected Representa-
tive Mann of Illinois, the Republi-
can leader. The remark aroused
number of members.
"She had as much right there as
any one," shouted Representative
Baker of California. "The gentleman
ought to be ashamed of himself"
The Senate of the United States,
aroused over the treatment of the
suffragists and the failure of the
police to give their protection, is in
sisting on a thorough. investigation.
The police department claim ire
sponsibility and plead in extenua-
ton an insufficiency of men in con-
trolling the arrivals in Wash hington,
and at the same time to protect the
sufrragists from the insults cf the
mob. This is lame excuse which is
not creditable to the police depart
ment of Washington.

Conditions at Cedar Grove.

lstanding.
| Conditions at Cedar Grove
| We find the conditions at Cedar
Grove deplorable regarding the vio-
lations of the prohibition law. Sher-
lift Flournoy has been endeavorine
to catch these violators, but with
out much success, as the majority
of them have years of training in
the City of Shreveport learning how
to evade the law. Some Of them are
old offenders, having been convict
ed in the past for violation of this
law. We recommend that the citi-
zens who have put their money in
property in Cedar Grove for the
purpose of helping the factory sitt
and the City of Shreveport, join
hands for the purpose of eliminat-
| ing these places of vice and law viO-
latiOns.
We recommend further that Dep
uty Sheriff Cawthon who is on the
ground and at work as such, in Ce-
dar Grove, take hold of this matter
in all earnestness and stop these
criminals from taking our law in
their own hands and trampling the
same with their guilty feet.
Judge Blanchard Commended.
We desire also to commend City
Judge Blanchard for his judgment
in giving the guilty prohibition law
violators the maximum penalty as
we believe that it will take drastic
measures and judgments to stop
these violations.
A Criticism of Petit Juries.
We beg to say also that we have
noticed with regret that during the
time we have been in session, that
just across the hall from us two
persons were tried and acquitted,
one being charged with mansIaugh-
ter and the other with murder; and
while we do not like to criticize the
verdicts of our petit jurors, we must
say that until the day comes when
they will be firm in the discharge
of their duty and convict the guilty
ones, the work of your grand juries
will fall to naught. The negro Dur
den who was acquitted was made
hero and all the black race present
after the trial congratulated him
for his escape from his cowardly
act.
The other negro, Charles Rogers,
was also applauded for his escape
from the penitentiary for having
caused the death of j. H. Parker,
and running three automobiles at a
reckless and dangerous rate of
speed all over the city while the
children and citizens of our city
were thronging the streets on their
way to church.
We regret to learn that our fore
man, Hon. E. R. Bernstein, is sick
and absent from the State, and trust
he will soon recover and be with us
again.
We have inspected the parish Jail
in charge of Sheriff Flournoy and
Jailer Gamblin, and find it in good
sanitary condition.
We desire to thank Sheriff Flour
hoy, District Attorney w. A. MaDry
and Assistant District Attorney Pro-
thro for their assistance in the de-
spatch of our work.
Thanking your honor for your
courtesies, and having completed
our labors for the present, we ask
to be discharged. Respectfully sub
mitted, JOHN A. KEEL,
Foreman Pro Tenn.

When to Cut Alfalfa

Although alfalfa is probably grown
more generally than any other crop
in Canyon county, find a great var
lance in the opoions of the growers
lance in the opinions of the growers
in regard to the time at which it
should be cut for hay. Presumably
there is one best time to cut it-one
stage at which it makes hay of a bet
ter quality than when cut at any other
stage. If that is true, then those who
cut 1t at any other stage are clearly
making mistake.
More than month ago | observed
the first alfalfa cut this season, and at
the present time, June q, there is still
considerable of the first crop uncut.
Certainly some fields made an earlier
start and consequently reached the
hay making stage sooner than others,
but that does not account wholly for
the difference in time of cutting
Some prefer to cut when the first
bloom appears, others express the
opinion that some seed should be
formed before the hay is cut, while
still others do not pay much atten-
ton to the blood, but look rather
for the starting of the second growth
from the crowns. In some cases, at
least, the latter method is the better
because alfalfa that is very thick or
that has had much water will often
not put out much bloom until il is
past the stage for making the best
quality of hay.
About the only advantage in late
cutting is that one gets a greater total
yield of hay, and the disadvantages
much more than offset this. Some of
the advantages OF early cutting-that
is, cutting as soon as the second
growth appears or when the alfalfa
is not over one-tenth in bloom, are
these: First, the early cut hay has a
higher actual feeding value, aside
from smaller proportion of waste
due to coarse, woody stems; second.
the leaves are not lost to as great an
extent as by late cutting, which.
when we remember that forty pounds
OF leaves contain nearly the same
amount of nutriment as one hundred
pounds of stems, is seen to be an
important consideration; third, the
Following crops start more quickly and
makes better growth; fourth, nox-
ious weeds are, to greater extent,
prevented from seeding.
