funds. The Banner commends the
cause to its readers and trusts that
throughout Rossier Parish liberal
subscription to the proposed fund may
be secured. The contribution referred
to reads:
: The tuberculosis situation in
Louisiana should he made clear to all
the people. The Louisiana Antituber-
culOsis League launched last year a
campaign to secure the nucles OF a
State Hospital In order that when the
legislature met there would be the
nucles of hospital to which an ap-
preparation could be made for the
purpose of caring for INDECENT tuber-
culOsis patients
: The league submitted a request to
the Appropriations Committee and re-
ceived an appropriation Of $4,000,
which was augmented to $45, 900 by a
unanimous vote OF both houses of the
Legislature. The Governor vetoed this
appropriation. This veto leaves the
league without any means whatsoever
to develop the hospital situation, un-
less the people of our state respond to
the campaign which is about to be pui
on and literally invest In Christmas
Seals. which revenue from most Of the
parishes we hope will be dedicated tt
this purpose.
The situation in Louisiana is des
perate. There are actually only &C
beds supported by the State In all
there are only 100 beds: 70 at the
Pines, 80 at Hygeia, and 10 supported
at the Greenwell Springs by the loca
league. This is case where Il lons

will give results which will astolisl
us within the year.

Prospecting Still Moving Along.

q
Work at the Perkins Gayle No. 1, we
learned yesterday, is still moving along
smoothly. Some days ago 12h Inch
casing was set in the new prospect at
the depth Of 37S feet, and it is expected
that drilling will again be under way
before the week closes. This location
is In section 33-2O-13, something more
than mile to the southeast of Benton,
and on acreage owned by Mr.. G. @.
Gayle. Of Shreveport. The well will
likely be drilled to a depth Of 5000
feet, or deeper, and careful test is to
be made.
No late report has come in from
Charlie Vests Scanland No. 1, located
in the south half of section 1O-2O-13,
31a miles to the northeast Of Benton.
Operations are said to be under way
and the new source OF water supply
seems to be holding out very well.
Those driving by yanceville have for
some weeks past noted a new derrick
located perhaps three-quarters of a
mile to the east Of the station. This
prospect Is Boissean & Collins Gray
No. located in section 2S-19-13, on
acreage owned by Mr.. A. c. Gray, OF
Vanceville. At this site six-inch casing
was set some days ago and it is likely
the well will be drilled iii one day next
week.

Whiskey Purchaser
Guilty as Its Maker,
Asserts Judge Jack

+
!. The purchaser of whiskey is as
guilty as the bootlegger, and, with him,
may he indicted for conspiracy to vio- !
late the law. a more serious offense
than the violation ITSELF" stated Judge
G. w. Jack in his charge to the Federal
Grand Jury at Shreveport last Monday
morning.
Judge Jacks charge, in part, is as
follows:
Notwithstanding the hearty co
operation of state and federal authori-
ties in this district in the enforcement
Of the prohibition law, We still have
with us the bootlegger.
Recently there has appeared ON the
scene new type of bootlegger. His
liquor is made in model copper stills,
or 1t is imported and bears well
known brand. His customers are not
Of the old time inebriates but include
prominent men Of the community, lead
ers in its business and social activities.
men whose lives should be an example
to their fellow citizens, of strict oh
servance of, and respect for, the law.
Among them are a few erstwhile
prollibitionists, total abstainers when
they might legally have acquired in
tOxicants, who now. in violation Of the
| law. serve at their homes the product
of Illicit stills.
It is evident that there would he
no bootleggers We're there no custom
ers. The purchaser is as guilty as the
seller, and with him may Ire indicted
for conspiracy to violate. the law, a
| more serious offense than the violation
itself.
There is hut little difference in
hiring man to violate the law and
in buying the product after the offense
has been committed. One who COM
mits crime by proxy is equally guilty
with his agent. Morally his guilt is the
| greater, because, himself lacking the
nerve to do the thing, he has induced
another to commit the offense for his
benefit.
/ A man violates the law to
crafty his thirst, and thus passes HIM
self above the law and in defiance of
Reconstructed authority. He is robbed by
another, who, feeling the pinch Of want,
violates the law to appease his hunger.
Has not the former, by his own bad ex-
ample, contributed to the delinquency
OF the latter? Can those who habit
nally and notoriously violate the pro
hibition statute, or any other law, ex.
cuse themselves from guilty part in
the creating and fostering Of a general
spirit of lawlessness?
Il call attention to this ominous
spirit Of lawlessness and its various
manifestations to Impress on you, and
on the great mass of good citizens whe
stand for law and order, the import
ance of building up healthy public
sentiment which will see no Jest In thu
wanton disregard Of the prohibition
law. but will. take all laws seriously
demand their strict enforcement, Civ,
hearty cooperation and support to tn,
executive officers, and maintain tn,
authority Of the courts.
In those cases investigated by you
where the evidence warrants, yol
should not stop with the Indictment o
the bootlegger, but include with hin
. his customers. They are co-conspirat
! ors and confederates in the violation o
the law. The inan who furnishes tn
| money and the man who furnishes th
rum should stand or so down to
gether."

A late dispatch from London, Of
timely interest at this season, reads:

death rate of 5000 per million from

General Oil Field Notes.

Other than what is reported else
where in the Banner, the reporter has
not learned great deal this week
about production in the two Bossier
Parish oil fields or the prospecting for
oil In wildcat territory. In the Emma
community. so reported, there are now
three rigs being operated and two new
derricks up, or being constructed. The
three rigs mentioned include the
Standard Company's Rawls No. lin
section 15-22-11, we believe-at which
site the driller is about ready to set
six-inch casing. The depth of the hole
the first of the week was reported
around 26OO feet. Moreffeld & Tanner,
operating in the same community
(section 9-22-11) some days ago struck
good flow Of fresh water at the
depth of 70 feet, and drilling to a
depth OF 80 feet struck such a bold
flow Of water that 1t came out over the
top in large stream, and continues to
do so. This location is on the Cason
tract of land, within the traverse OF
Bodcau Bayou. The operators moved
over about 70 feet and again set the
rig at work.
Favorable reports from the Standard
Company's Wyche No 2--in section IA
1911, Bellevue field-have not come in.
In fact, the reports are unfavorable,
thus far. This is a deep test in an
effort effort to locate an oil of high
grade in the new field. Casing was
set at the depth of 254O feet and the
well was due to be dsilled In yester-
day.
2she Standard Company is said to be
preparing to drill the plug In its
Kendrick B-1. also a deep test, located
in section 22-10-11. Six-inch casing
was set at the depth Of 1880 feet il
this prospect.
