I have been willing to let the

eternal gods, have never been
willing to let the saloons run the
State" says Ex-Gov. J. Y. Sanders,
of Louisiana.
This is modern day evangelism
with a vengeance. Thank Heaven
it has reached our sister State
Gov. Sanders does not favor a
constitutional convention because
of the ring politics that seek to
control and in spite Of warnings
and threats of even losing the Fede-
raj position he holds he spoke his
mind at Baton Rouge in theatre
he hired for the purpose. The
speech marks an epoch in Louisi-
ana history and shows the spirit
that triumphs in spite of defeat.
"Whiskey is the one sacred bird
in Louisiana politics and must not
be touched says the ex-governor
sarcastically.
May the touch" Of Sanders poi

C0mfnuted Sentence OF A
Man, Four Times Sen
fenced To Die
AND K|LD SCENES FOLLOW
And Militia Was Called
Gut To Protect The
Georgia Executive

Leo NJ. Franks death sentence
was commuted to life imprisonment
Monday by Gov. Slaton.
Announcement of the Governor
decision came several hours after
Frank.had been secretly taken from
the jail and hurried to the State
prison; farm at Milledgeville. Frank
was sentenced to be hanged Tuesday
for the murder of Mary Phagan in
April, 1918.
Gov. Slaton still was at his coun-
try home when he announced his
decision on the case over the tele-
phone to the Associated Press. In
making this announcement the Gov
ernor dictated the following brief
statement.
"All that ask is that the peo-
pie of Georgia read my state
ment Of the reasons why l COM
muted Leo M. Franks death
sentence to life imprisonment
before they pass judgement,
Feeling, as | do about this
case | would be murderer i'll
allowed this man to hang. 1t
may mean. that l must live in
obscurity the rest Of my days,
but would rather be plowing
in the field than to feel for the
rest Of my life that had that
man blood on my hands. --
With several hundred men and
boys clamoring to get into his front
gates, which had been barricaded
by barbed wire entanglements, and
threatening to 0verpower the
twenty policemen, armed with riot
guns, Governor Slaton called upon
the militia late tonight to protect
his home.
Upon arrival of four companies
of state guardsmen, which had
been held under arms and rushed
to the Governors country home in
automobiles, he proclaimed martial
law in a district extending half a
mile in front of his home, half a
mile back and for a distance of
about a quarter of a mile on either
side.
When the soldiers lined up with
fixed bayonets to disperse the
crowd, stones, bricks and bottles
were thrown at them. A brick
struck Lieut.. Arnold Parker in the
stomach and rendered him uncon-
scious for a short time. A bottle
thrown at Private w. w. Foope,
struck his gun and cut his head.
The commanding officer, Major
Catron. was struck by a stone, as
were several of the men.
The governor proclaimed martial
law at exactly II o'clock and by
midnight the crowd had practically
been dispersed.

THAT the Hessian fly is an insect
capable of in6icting great injury on
Kansas wheat is being fully demon
strated this season The injury to this years
crop is almost certain to be even greater
than in 1908, when forty-one Kansas coun-
ties reported injury ranging from to SO
per cent of the crop, causing loss of O.
$4,000 bushels.
The destructiveness of the fy's work
to the individual farmer is not measured
by its average annual damage, but by the
percentage of his crop it may destroy, which
may be 100 per cent.
The Hessian fly has been increasing i'll
numbers for several years and destroying
considerable amount Of wheat. In 1912 it
was confined principally to the northeastern
part of the state, and in 1913 serious dam
age occurred in this section, especially along
the Kaw valley.
The dry summers of 1913 and 1914 did
not seriously hinder the development of the
fly, and thus the infestation spread over
the entire eastern half of the state, causing
a large loss of wheat. The fall, winter and
spring conditions were favorable for the
fly, and with continuance of these favor
able conditions the infestation is certain to
increase and become still more serious

The Hessian Fly Situation i'm Kansas By Geo. Dean "

in general it follows rather definite course.
Starting about the first of April, the adult
flies begin to emerge from the laxseeds that
have passed the winter in the volunteer and
the regular crop of wheat. From this time
on until the last of April the adults
tinue to emerge. The flies live only few
days, but during that time deposit from one
hundred to three hundred of their eggs in
the grooves along the upper surface of the
wheat leaves. The eggs hatch in from four
to eight days, and the young maggots work
their way down the leaf to a place between
the leaf sheath and the stalk, where the leaf
has its origin. Here the maggots feed, grow,
By the last of May the supplementary spring
brood is out, and the life cycle is repeated.
After harvest the haxseeds of this brood
