The United States immigration au-
thorities refused to allow ex-President
Castro of Venezuela to land in the United
States, according to the information
which has come to the publici but the
authorities have failed thus far to di-
vdlee the reason for the exclusion. 1t
seems that the public of the country has
a right to know the reasons, since it
does not appear to have been from the
more usual reasons for exclusion, like
lihood Of the applicants becoming pub
lie cha ges or the fact that they are
afflicted with disease The public may
agree with the action OF the immigra-
ton authorities, but at the same time
it would like to know the basis for the
exclusion.

The net increase in valuations in the
90 years from 1860 to 1910 amounted to
only 81 per cent while the increase in
valuations for the 10 years from 1900
to 1910 amounted to 80 per cent. and
this has been done. too, under the
wasteful system OF plantation farming
of large areas under single ownership.
With better methods of intensive
cultivation and diversified farming now
well under way, this rich alluvial plain
can produce food products sufficient to
influence the markets of the world.
Geoloeically. me State of Louisiana

its geological history has been written
by water.
Ages past the Mississippi Valley con-
sisted of shallow sea into which
emptied the Mississippi the Arkansas,
the Missouri and the Ohio rivers. de-
posting their silt from the Appalachian
and the Rocky Mountains until this
sea became IN enormous river. It's
current was slow and its overflow re-
suited in large deposits OF a loam
character. from which the greater part
OF the State has been formed.
According to the United States Gov
ernment Bureau of Soils. the soils Of
the state may be divided into two gen
craI classes, known as the Gulf Coastal
Plains and River Flood Plains About
two thirds of the lard of the State
Is of Gulf Coastal Plain origin and
about one-third Of River Flood Plain
origin, which are again subdivided into
some twenty-sIN series. all of which
are of alIuvlal formation. being the
scdimrntdry deposits of the Mississippi
River or the Gulf OF Mexico.
on these rich aildvial plains are
found the century old sugar and cotton
plantations loni: famed as the richest
agricultural land in the country ami
spCken of as the cream Of the SOL
of the United States" Practically ali
OF this alluvial area is low and level
the elevation of the ioWlands benS
generally less than 20 feet above mean
gulf level, while the highlands lie from
100 to 700 feet above mean gulf level.
The extensive levcc systems which
have been built up drain most of the
southern part of the State directly into
the Gulf through lakes, rivers and
bayou which form an extensive In
land waterway system.
The state of Louisiana has over D..
900 600 acres of implanted land awaiting
the farmer. consisting of the richest
alluyial plains In the world, large part
of which has deep water transportation,

portation problem, assuring him equt-
able freight rates and placing him in

What the Grange Has Done.

Massachusetts State Grange propos-
es to show what a factor the Grange
has been in advancing the agricultural
interests of the state. by giving what
is likely to prove the most extensive
and interesting agricultural exhibit
ever held in the Bay State. The ex-
hibit will open in fremont Temple,
Boston, Dec. 8. The railroads and
big express companies have agreed to
grant free transportation of all pro-
ducts intended for the exhibition;
provided they are not to be after
wards sold. 1t is the intention of the
State Grange TO distribute the pro-
ducts of this exhibition among the
charitable institutions of Boston af-
ter the exhibition. Although Massa-
chusetts is an Industrial state her ag-
ricuitural products amount to 10000
900 annually.

A .gilt-edge" express train OF a
great American railroad does not jump
the track at a curve without some rea-
son. The reason in detail is matter
for close investigation. The reason

guess. lies with the Generalization OF
the system by directorate of grab
and greed. for which the present man

Graham for Cumberland Sheriff.

The sudden death of Sheriff Everett
q. Scully of Cumberland county.
temporarily dismayed the better ele-
ment OF the community and saddened
thousands throughout the State. for
Mr.. Scully was "a true-hearted man. a
loyal, clean gentleman, and held
friends even among the enemy" He
was Democrat who did not claim, we
are told, to be believer in prohibit
tory law. But the law was there and
he had been called upon by the Gov
erner to enforce it. He did his duty
impartially and exerted himself be-
yond his strength. Sheriff ScuIly may
be said to have been martyr to hon
est duty.
The liquor crowd was in jubilant
spirits as soon as they understood that
there was none to enforce the law A
reign of do as you please was prom

Tuesday Governor Haines announced
