Question ?

If the Louisiana State Lottery is abol-
ished entirely, will all immortality be
abolished with it, and will our politics be
only composed of pure, honest men and
principles. and what guarantee are we to
have Of same, If so f-Hornet.
Most assuredag not. But the prime
corrupting factor in Louisiana politics
will disappear, and the stigma of
shame which every Louisianian feels in
knowing that his State is but a capper
for q huge gambling concern will be
wiped out and the moral atmosphere
disinfected tossuch an extent that the
pure and honest men will at least have
a living chance to remain so. That's
all!

EX-SENA TOR PALMER on THE FAIR.
PLANS OF THE COMMITTEE ON PERMANENT
ORGANIZATION.

Washington, July 25.-Ex senator Palmer prcsi-
dent of the Worlds Fair Commission, accompanied
BY Secretary Dickinson, is in the city in the interest
pf the Fair project, lie said that the present trip
OF the Committee Permanent Organization had
for its purpose the acquisition OF information from
the best sources from which to formulate a PIN
upon which the Fair shall be conducted. They have
received so far great deal Of valuable information
from Governor Mccormick and 4. T. GOshOn. d.
YectoT-Gcneral OF the Centennial Exposition "To
day. continued MIR. Palmer, IL have been cOnsulta
ton With senator Hawley, president Of tie Ccntcn
NAL Commission and tonight shah spend with The
President discussing matters IN connection with the
Fair. Tomorrow, with the member, q, tho comm.tc"
including Mcssrs. McKinzc, BTeslln. Harrison and
Ewing, and secretary Dickinson, | Will 60 to Elmo
Springs. Va, remaining day. There We expect to
meet representative men from all parts OF the SOUTH
whom we shall endcavor TO interest in the
project. From there 1 shall rctarn 10 Chicago
Mr. Palmer expressed great qualification over the
settlement Of the site Of the Fair. and said that
the division between Jackson PARK and the lake
trout was nominal than real. 1t would, in
his opinion, add largely TO the general interest
and attractveness of the Fair because the lake
front would be devoted 10 features that would
naturally draw the crowds night. Willie tho bulk
of the Fair proper would be at Jackson Park. Mr..
Palmer said that when The National E2n'misSlon
would move along most ha7mOniously. There
y no man on the Commission he sdd, who Is
Of the Fair. / never saw a body Of men moro
anxious 10 make their wO:h success than these
Commissioners are. The criticisms that mate
upon the Fair now will in thc end rebound to its
benefit They win pa' the I'm american roople, upon
position OF all such persons will be whstlcd down
the wind"
Being ashed as to the truth Of the reports that
Mr.. Goshorn had said that he woGld not accept
the place Of Director General senator PHlmcI re-
with which he connected had no authority 10
offer the appointment 20 Mr.. GoshOrn, and did not
know that ne would accept It if IL offered.
