More Boys Back
From Service.

We went too press too early last
week to note all of the boys who had
returned from service. On Thursday
Mr.. Norman Legendre, son Of Mr.. p.
F. Legendre, who had been in service
in Italy with the American forces and
who later was engaged in Pennsylya-
mia, together with MIR. Paul Legendre
another brother engaged at the same
place as french instructors
to our forces, returned home. Both
look well and are none the worse for
their varied experiences.
Mr.. Ferddie Torres, son of Mr.. Tho
Torres, was also late arrival lastw
week, after seeing nearly one years
service with the boys in France. Mr..
Achille Naquin, who enlisted with the
Washington Artillery, and who was
afterwards separated from them, and
who saw service and was with the ar
my of occupation in Germany, also
was one of last weeks late arrivals.
Mr.. Earl Cancienne, who had been
reported wounded and afterwards
dead, whose wife mourned him, is
also listed among last weeks oversee
arrivals
Mr.. Oliver Doucet, son of Mr.. P.
j. Doucet of this town returned from
over seas service last week and is
home with his father and mother for
while. He saw active service and
spent several months in the thickest
in France.
Lieut.. William B. Clark returned
Wednesday from overseas service, and
was introduced to his little son, his
first and only, born during his abb
sence, now six months of age. The re-
union of father, mother and son was
a happy one. Lieut.. Clark left Camp
Beauregard last summer, in the early
part of the season, and was thrown In
to action shortly after his arrival in
France. He was gassed several times
and was in hospital for a while. He
saw active service and had many and
varied experiences. He is at the
household of Mr.. and Mrs. Fred
O'Rourke on Green Street, and the
home coming was made memorable
for him by the entire family.

6efeTs Granting
- Mexcans Writ,

Writ of habeas corpus applied fol-
- sdaloupe Artega de Leguero
Maria srisSsaga isSsaga and eight other Mexi-
! cans agail--enesss,Ih Thomas F. Stark
sheriff of Lafos~es r,.arles Ind the
Leon Godchaux Company .~.-of La
fourche parish, was held in allegiance
Saturday by Judge Rufus E. Foster,
in the Federal Court, pending action
Of the Lafourche parish court at Thi-
cdaux on Monday.
"Leguero applied for the writ on
Thursday, through attorney c. P. Nun
dy, who claimed that sheriff Stark had
refused to let him see Leguero or any
of the other Mexicans in the Lafour-
che parish jail. Mr.. Mundy claimed
that Leguero and the other Mexicans
~sse brqught here from Texas under
thgetting bigger wages by
an agel@y5f the Godchaux Co. but that
instead they were thrown in Jail on a
charge of obtaining goods under false
pretenses when they refused to work
for q lesser wage.
Judge Foster shortly after the
writ was called Saturday rebuked She
riff Stark for not allowing lawyer
Mundy to see his clients and order
ed him to allow it. AS result Mr..
Mundy talked with each of the men
and the young women, only IL years
old. Mr.. Beattie of council for Sheriff
Stark then asked that the matter be
left to the Lafourche parish court.
"After the case is decided there,
Judge Foster will again hear the ha-
beas corpus arguments."-N. o. Sta
tes.
AS soon as District Attorney Coig-
net looked into the matter, on the re-
turn of the prisoners from New Or
leans, he on Tuesday morning mol
pressed the case, asked that the
court release them, which was done.
This was done due to no effort of coun
sci for accused, but ON the face OF the
affidavits and before any information
could be or wa~ drawn and is GER
tainly to the District Attorneys ere
dit. The charges had been made, had
to be investigated, and the accused
were held on affidavits made by res
ponsible parties; the facts and the
law being 1ascertained these
aliens, were released just
as any American citizen
would have been released. Our conten-
ton had always been that on the me-
srits of the case laborers could not be
held under any such charges; it is as
if nothing had been at issue.
The District Attorney. did the right
thing.
There was absolutely no display in
the court room when the District At
torney made the motion in court. The
accused were not in court and it was
necessary to release them from the
jail, when they expressed their gra-
titude to Mr.. Mundy in their demon
strative way. The Mexicans were un-
represented in the District Court,
their release, in so far as the state
court was concerned was accomplished
without any attorney appearing Of re-
cord or without attorneys action in
solicitation or Intervention in court.
The only court proceedings were pro-
ductive of no results, as the above
from N. o. States shows.

Clinton Rogers wcodruff and other

After the movement fer better men in
politics and the revision OF the charter
had been indorsed In a resolution, Jo-
ssph Hagedorn, director OF civic affairs
OF the club, made the announcement.
adding that the dinner and the debate
would be conducted at future date.
Thereupon Mr.. Evans arose and ex-
claimed:
The City Club has no influence in
Philadelphia. It is an organization of
dilletanti and it's purposeless. ] won't
come to any dinner OF this club " these
contractors and profteers are invited"
mfr. Evans does not know what he is
talking about. This dinner was suggest
ed by his own leader, Thomas Raeburn
White. 1t behooves Mr.. Evans to get
himself in line with his own commit
tee," said Mr.. Hagedorn.
Mr.. Evans remained silent. But not
so Henry Johns Gibbons, an attorney
who declared:

tribution:

their responsibilities"

said
Gentlemen, stop talking. Take of
