The World's Panama Exposition Company of New Orleans wisely decided not to attempt the voin. task of carrying the contest for governrent recognition into the national senate, but to give full and cordial recognition to the victory achieved by San Francisco in the lower house of congress. Besides advising Louisiana's senators of this decision, the directorate of the company wired congratulations and good wishes to the ggvernor of California, the mayor of San Francisco and the president of the Panama-Pacific Exposition Company, eliciting replies that are a credit to the senders and a merited tribute to the admirable manner in which the claims of New Orleans were advanced and, to the spirit of generosity and courtesy that prompted the conclusion not to stand in the California city's light. This is as it should be. Any other course would have detracted from the altogt ther plendid record the New Orleans company established by the clean, fair and gallant fight conducted in behalf of the "Logical Point." A general meeting of the stockholders has been called for March 15 to adopt measures for the liquidation of the company's affairs.

Meanwhile, the senate passed without, opposition the house resolution authorizing the president of the United States tc invite foreign to participate it. the exposition at San Francisco in 1915. President Taft signed the document with a gold pen provided for the purpose, the. Pacific coast is jubilant and the Gulf coast philosophically resigned and content. SENATOR LORIMER KEEPS HIS SEAT.

The United States senate last Wednesday on thgretiition introduced by Senator, veridge of Indiana to declare vacant ihe seat of Senator Willian LorimirTIllinois. The basis of the reso.týtfon was the declaration that the election of the junior Illinois senator had been brought about by bribery and corruption A thorough investigation of the matter was made by a committee of the senate. and two reports were submitted, the document contending that not a sufficient number of votes in the Illinois legislature had been influenced by the use of money to affect the result, while.the mi nority of the committee took a contrary view and recommended that the election be annulled and the seat vacated. After a lengthy and acrimonious debate in which a number of senators participa ted pro and con, the Beveridge resolutiot, was by 46 nays to 40 yeas, thus confirming Senator Lorimer in his seat. The affirative vote was cast by 22 Republicans and emocrats, the negativt by 35 Reputlicans and 11 Democrats Among 'the latter were both the Louisiai a senators, Bailey of Texas and Tillman of South Carolina, and the- most forcible speech behalf of the accused Republi can senator was that miade-by Democratic Senator Bailey.

Thus it will be seen that the political lines were- by, no mean: closely drawn in the decision of this contest, which makes it somewhat notable it sepatorigi annals. Not satisfied with mudslinging, tnhe Monroe politicians descended to can paign poetry. The Mexican revolution gets suppressed and breaks out afresh every few days, after the'n anner of its kind. Eggs are cheaper in New York city now than for 'forty years. Yet the PayneAldricl tariff is still in operation.

How can such things be? It requires a secind look nowadays to tell whether the esteemed Monroe NewsStar is giving another picture of Mayor Forsythe or ny victim's phiz. Toe pending session of conigress will expire at noon 'today, and President Taft- it said to have announced that an extra setsion will be called for March 20 to consider the Canadian reciprocity bill and other unfinished business. Bishop Heslin of the Catholic diocese of Natchez, died on Feb. 22 from a complication of Bright's disease, pneu. monia and heart trouble.

Jose Santos'Zelaya, the deposed Central American dictator, has issued at Brussels a pamphlet, in which he -severely denounces President Taft for "shamelessly aiding the rebellion" in Nicaraugua' and "scheming to seize all Ceptral America."

Public School Notes. Supt. J. L. Rusca went to Duplessis last Sunday to attend a meeting at the Calbasse school in the interest of the proposed special school tax, but on account of the heavy rain the meeting did not materialize.

During the week Mr. Rusca visited Gonzales, Black Bayou, Singletary, St. Amant, Martin, Johnson, Galvez, Lake and Calbasse schools. The patrons of the Black Bayou school have raised $85 with which they intend to ceil their school building. The patrons of the Martin school are erecting a splendid two-room building with folding doors in order that the two rooms may be converted into a hall whenever necessary.

The Galvez consolidated building, begun before the Christmas holidays, has not yet been completed. However, it is being used. The patrons expect to complete and paint the structure after the close of the school session. The following directions relative to the Carnival days were sent by Supt. Rusca to all the teachers of the parish: "On account of the requests from our teachers I have decided to close toe schools of the parish on Feb.

27 and 28, and March 1, and to ask the teachers to make up this time at the end of the session. This arrangement will permit the teachers and the pupils so desiring to spend those days in New Orleans visiting and witnessing the carnival. "In those schools where the teachers do not desire this time, the school may run on a usual, but no teacher from any school will be excused for Carnival unless the entire school closes and the work is made up at the end of the session." During the past two months the attendance at many of the schools has been reduced on account of meazles and mumps, and vaccination. Honduran Insurgents Indicted. The United States grand jury at New Orleans has returned indictments for violation of the neutrality laws against Manuel Bonilla, Florian Davidi, Lee Christmas and Jos.

W. Beer in connection with the expedition to Honduras of the former gunboat Hornet. Mr. Bonilla is leader of the present revolution in Honduras, Gen. Christmas is chief military officer of the insurgent forces, Dr.

Davidi was formerly president of the Honduran congress, and Mr. Beer is a citizen of New Orleans, identified with' steamship interests, who bought the Hornet and subsequently sold her to the revolutionists. The boat left New Orleans. without passengers or war material, but it is claimed she was boarded at Chandeleueirslands by the indicted parties and fitted out as a gunboat under their direction. Mr.

as given bond to appear for trial, but the other three accused are in Honduras, beyond the jurisdiction of the cobrt. If the present trouble in the Central.American republic is settied by arbitration, or if the Bonilla forces oust President Davilla-one of which contingencies is extremely probable to come about-the New Orleans prosecution is: not likely to be pressed very vigorously, if at all. Day Letter Telegraph Service. The Western Union Telegraph Compainy inaugurated on March 1 a new form of telegraph service called the "day designed to be the day companion of the night letter service instituted some time ago. The rate charged for a day letter uo fifty words or less is one and one-hall times the night letter rate, and for each additional ten words or less, one-fifth the initial charge.

For example: The New Orleans-New York night letter rate is 60 certs: the day letter rate is one and onehalf times that amount, or 90 cents, with 18 cents for each additional ten words. The New Orleans-St. Louis night letter rate is 50 cents; the day letter rate at 75 cents, and 15 cents for each additional ten words. Day letters must be written in plain English, and will be accepted at all Western Union offices' for transmission to any of its offices in the United States They may be filed at any time, but as the wires of the company are in such demand during the mid-day hours it is advisable that they be filed as early in the day as possible.

Death of Mrs. Alexander Landry.

Cornerview. Feb. 23, 1911. This community was most grievously shocked Tuesday morning by the announcement of the death of Mrs. Alexander Landry, as almost before the family had realized it the Grim Reaper had claimed as his own one of the shining marks of our neighborhood.

Mrs. Landry complained of a headache and pains last Friday, and Saturday evening Dr. M. R. Cushman was called in and prescribed a remedy.

The family retired as usual Saturday night, and the following morningwhen Mr. Landry, the devoted husband, went to his wife's bedside to give her the usual cup of morning coffee he found her almost unconscious. The family circle was immediately assembled around the bedside and a messenger was hurriedly despatched to St. Amant for Mrs. Landry's brother, P.

S. Berteau. Drs. Cushman and Smith were called in, and on Monday afternoon Dr. Carruthers, a specialist of Baton Rouge, arrived and held a consultation with the other physicians.

All the medical skill available was resorted to and the most tender care of "family and friends was expended'in an effort to revive, the patient, but to no avail, the end coming peacefully at 4:30 o'clock Tuesday morning. Mrs. Landry was thirty-seven years, five months and twenty-one days old. Before lapsing into the final sleep that extends into eternity, she received the last nacremeats of the Catholic church, of which she was a devout membek The funeral took place at Prairieville Wednesday afternoon, Rev.
