In 1900 he was elected district at
torney, and, after serving two
years, resigned. In 1908 he was
again elected, and in 1912 he was

best stump speakers in the third

years, Captain Muller suffered
the loss of his young wife, a

assembled at the Depot to meet
his remains, marching in a body

The DISTRICT ArTORNEYSHir

The untimely death of Captain
A. N. Muller has unfortunately
created vacancy in the District
Attorneys office, and for a while
it looked as though the candida
cy would be between Hon. Por-
teus r. Burke and Hon Edwin
Broussard. Dame rumor on the
streets this morning is to the eff
fectthat through the intervention
of the friends of both of the gen
tlemen they have decided to pull
down and stand for the Consti
tutional Convention with the ap-
proval of both parties. If this be
true. it will certainly be a happy
solution to the problem, although
the two Parishes will be depriv
ed of it's best legal talents for
that particular Office. Both of
these me m ers Of the bar con
scented reluctantly when they
were approached by their friends
to represent the different parties
they are aligned with, and
there is no gainsaying the fact
that it would have been a close
contest 1t is unfortunate that
there is such a disposition to
draw party lines when it comes
to the selection of Parish officials,
more particularly when We need
the best men to fill our Offices.
which is conducive to taking from
the people that degree of indie.
tendance that they should dis
play when casting their votes.
1t would be far better locally
that our citizens cast aside poll
tical parties when choosing pu bic
officials. If it works good in the
city OF New Iberia. why cannot
the same results be obtained
when selecting Parish officials.
To our mind it would be Just as
reasonable to vote against can.
didate because one was not of the
same religious faith as to accept
q local candidate because of Ma.
tional issues. The price of su.
gar has no bearing whatever in
matters of local issue. and there
IS no sane reason why these is.
sues should become confused by
our people in the selection of our
local public officers.
We are hopeful that the report
be true and both Of these gentle :,
men represent iberia in the Con /.
stitutional Convention unoppos-
ed. just who else will announce
themselves as Mr.. Muller's sue
cessor, we have no reason to
know. We trust however, that
some strong man will announce
himself for the Office, irrespec.
tive of party.

FATAL CROSSING
ACCIDENT SUNDAY
James w. Morrison Struck by Train
- and Killed at Litchffeld.

Last Sunday evening about 900
James w. Morrison was instantly kill
ed at the Holcomb avenue crossing of
the railroad tracks in this city, being
struck by east bound freight train No.
4O2.
Mr.. Morrison was alone at the mo-
ment of the accident, and the manner
of it's happening is not known. He
had been at the home of his brother,
]. G., in the north part of town, and
was returning on foot to his home in
south town next door to the C. w.
Wagner residence.
The body was first seen by Basil
Hanson and Lloyd Lasher, who were
passing along in an auto. They mott
fed the authorities at once, and Police
Chief Brown and Coroner Robertson
were soon on the scene. They had the
remains removed to the Langren un
dertaking establishment.
An examination by physicians show
ed that death must have been imme
date. The body was lying south OF
the main track and near the middle
of the street. Evidently he had been
struck by the right side of the engine
pilot, and was thrown about 30 feet
to near the middle of the street. The
train was running at quite rapid
rate of speed.
Will Keefe, a we'll known former
Litchfield boy, was the engineer OF
the train. He was communicated
with next morning, and reported that
he did not see the accident nor was
aware that one had occurred. His
train went on without any member OF
the crew being aware of the accident
An inquest was held at the court
house Monday forenoon. The verdict
was to the effect that deceased was
killed by a Great Northern freight
train.
Mr.. Morrison was a native of Mic
ollet, Canada, and was born March
%, 1854. His age was 81 years,
months and IL days. He is survived
by his wife and one son, Henry O
Morrison. Two brothers are living
