The New Adjustment.

In the animal kingdom there arc two kinds,
those who subsist on vegetable life and those
who gain their existence by preying on other
animals. The human family is divided by pref
ty much the same classification.
Primarily, everything IN the list of our ne
c~essities, comes from the soil; the cotton and
wool for our clothing, the iron fer our manufac-
tories, the food We eat ard materials for the
houses in which we live. C:e class Of indiy;d-
uals are engaged in taking these products from
the soil and passing the surplus on to others to
be manufactured, sorted and distributed to the
consumer. In this respect basic principles have
not differed in all the years since Dives pulled

In earlier times the landed proprietor's safe

til his vessals came in to exchange their service

clothing and shelter. These services he utilized
to grow wider fields Of grain and raise larger

Then came the day Of invention. Home

tribute to q thousand skilled craftsmen and
commercial experts. The surplus from, Ills
granaries was still the only accumulated we:lth
in the world, but he passed this surplus along
to the manufacturer, the trader and the banker,
paying each an extravagant price for the small
service they had rendered and leaving each to
divide the major portion ancng their man prey
ing brothers.
In this process he lost ell count Of the real
value Of the surplus and with it ceased to have

Honorable Adrien Leopold.

Death is another life. We bow cur hesds
At going out, we think, and enter straight
Another golden chamber Of the kings,
Larger than this we leave, and loveler.
And then, In shadowy ~glrnpses, d~isconnect,
The story, fowsr-lke, cloaes thus its leaves.
The Will of God 10 all in Ill. He makes.
DESTROYS. remakss, for His own pleasure, ALL"
The residents of the Parish of P~lsQuemines
were startled on Saturday morning, August g.
TO learn Of the sudden death of Judge Adrien
Leopold, at Phoenix P. O.. St. Sophie. Judge
Leopold was fifty four years of age and was
aAArEaAnd reared in the Parish of Plaquemines,
where his father was a country merchant be-
fore the civil war. He was elected justice Of
the peace for the I'd. ward in 1894 and became
. member of the police jury in 1900. He was
actively engaged in mercantile business in a
large way IN the St. Sophie Settlement up to
the time of his death and was highly thought If
Ly all Of his friends in the second ward and
throughout the parish and by the mercantile
community generally. The increasing business
Of his brother, Hon. Simon Leopold, our pres
emf representative from this parish in the Louis
lana Legislature, led to the separation of his
commercial IUCeISetS 1IOln eltSc "a JuuEc Leu.
fold, who for some time has been personally
carrying on the st. Sophie mercantile business.
J.dge Leopold's death was entirely unexpected,
Ire having generally good health. The apparent
cause Of death was apoplexy. or a clot of blood
pr the brain, thus surnmarily closing his active
liz.
Everyone who knew Judge Leopold knew
that justice could be obtained in his court and
that in the transaction of his private and Of the
public business his word was as good az his bond
and he always did what he agreed to do. Ills
death will be regretted by everyone who has
known him. as do we personally who have
known MIN from his early boyhood, ard his
memory will be cherished in Plaquemines parish
as one Of our leading citizens.
Judge Leopold's remains were taken to New
Orleans on Sunday morning. August 80, and
wels accompanied BY I host OF his own friends
sa,al those Of Hon. Simon Leopold, who turned
out q; masse to to honor to the memory of their
dead friend. Rabbi SLIDER officiated at the fun
|eral and the floral offerings were numerous and
alahdeUme. His many friends who pass St.
or who have been accustomed to meet
him at Pointe q IL Hache will miss his CHEEKY
greeting and his hearty cooperation.

The nations menu must be
made up from the fields, pastures
orchards and gardens, and to
farm intelligently the farmer
must know what is needed. We
must give the same care and con-
sideration to q system of coop
erative laws, extending to the
farmer the facilities adapted to
his business that is now afforded
corporations. Farm tenancy is
the greatest menace row con.
fronting the nation and can only
be checked by aford;ng the ten
ant and the laborer facilities for
acquiring property and by reduc-
ing the high rates Of interest
which are now sapping the vital.
ity Of agriculture. Under the
present system Of marketing
farm products, it is possible and
often occurs, that people in one

A dozen years ago a recon-
mendat;on by z Postmaster-gen-
eral that automobiles lie used in
the delivery of rural mail would
have been laughed at, especially
in those sections where modern
highway building had rot taken
hold CT the people and where the
auto was looked upon solely for
the use of those who could find
no other way to spend money for
pleasure. Now, however, such a
suggestion, coming from Post
msster-general Burleson is taken
in all seriousness.

Will Bolt The Ticket.

The Mt. Sterling Gazette, one of the
Oldest and best-known Republican pa
pers in Eastern Kentucky, has announc
ed editorially that it will not support
former Governor A. e. Wilson, the Re-
the long term. The reason given is per-
sonal differences.
The Gazette is edited by Stanley o.
Wood, a son of the late John g. Wood,
who was member of the Republican
State Campaign Committee, which led
Mr.. Wilson's campaign for Governor in
1907. The editorial leaves the inference
that the paper will support Mr.. Beck
ham in preference to Wilson or Vance.
