Mckinley the FavOFite.

Judging by the results of the polls
!! taken in the big office buildings in
= Chicago an immense: vote will be piled
up for Mckinley. and Roosevelt In the
Republican wards Of the city. That
, this will be true has become evident
by the result of the poll in Marshall
Field & Co.'S big store, In the Mar
quette building. where the vote is five
to one, and in the Nonadnock building.
where It is six to one IN favor Of the
administration. The Rookery. one of

ration being nine to one. The vote Of

the Democratic party "to deal fairly
with the industries OF our district
sugar, rice and lumber, in adiustmen,
OF policies and methods OF dealing
with the responsibilities that have
accrued as the results of the late
war;" both wisdom and prudence
should lead US to trust 10 the Demo
cratic party which proposes to turn
loose the Philippines, which will
enable US to pursue the same econo-
mic policy towards them as We
pursue towards the rest OF the world
rather thai in the Republican party
which proposes to annex the islands,
without defining its economic policy
in dealing with them.
Let rs now consider the second
proposition
"The language of the Philadelphia
platform and the past treatment OF
our industries BY the Republican
party furnish confident guarantee
for the continued protection they will
afford"
The trainers OF the New Iberia
platform may repose with implicit
confidence upon the gIitter,ng gen,
eralities Of the Philadelphia platform
as a guarantee for the continued
protection of our industries that is
matter Of faith and hope, which
ma. rest on little or no foundation.
But when they assert that the past
treatment Of our industries by the
Republican party furnishes a conf
dent guarantee for the continued
protection that party will afYor,l, they
enter the domain OF history and of
fact and state a conclusion which
propose TO show is absolutely without
foundation, at least in 80 far as it
relates to sugar, the principal indus
try OF the district
What has been the treatment OF
our sugar industry by the Republican
party?
In 1870. during President Grants
fret administration, when the cry
arose for a reduction of revenues
springing from the war tariff, sugar
was selected for the sacrifice, and the
tariff on it was materially reduced.
President Grant and large follow
favored the annexation
Of San Domingo which would have
given US free sugar from that island;
a scheme which was only defeated ny
the stubborn resistance Of the Demo-
Gratis.
The Republican party under Grant
gave us the treaty with the Hawaiian
islands which admitted their sugars
into this country, free Of duty, until
the present Republican administra-
ton permanently annexed the islands
and established free trade with them
forever. The Democrats, under
President Cleveland. had cOpbatted
and defeated the scheme Matched by
President Harrison, another Repub!i-
can President; but Mckinley was no
sooner installed than the old Repub-
Iican scheme of annexation was
revived and executed.

An Unjust Law.
Gheens La. Sept. 19, 1900.

Gheens La. Sept 19, 1900.
Editor Thibodaux Sentinel.
In behalf Of the hunters of La
fourche parish, respectfully ask tn,
Police Jurors Of this parish tn Gel
aside the unjust game law passed a,
their last meeting. Set it aside and
uphold the State game law. "This If
what we want, and 1t covers every
thing. protects the game Of all kinds
and axes the time and date of hunt
ing SAID game" I say this Is an
unjust law because it gives to some q
privilege that it does not to others
What makes one man better than
anotherf Why do you want to give
one man q privilege to kill game and
shut another friend out. I'm sur
prIsed at our Democratic friends and
sorry for our Republican friends tha,
voted for this law. How mang
Democrats that worked and voted
for our Democratic friends that are
members Of our Police Jury, and
what are We fighting our Republican
friends today for? For allowing
privileges to some and shutting out
others. This law not ONLY shuts out
some hunters but It shuts out the
merchants that sells the ammunition
that is used in killing this game.
besides it takes away from the hun.
ter that which does not cost the
parish of I.afourche q cent. Take
the merchants profits away from him.
yet he is ex pected to pay his taxes
the same. What does the parish Of
Lafourchs or any parish expect to
get from labor it they take from i,
every privilege, and take from these
poor hunters the opportunity of
making . few dimes in the winter
months7
Perhaps all Of our police jurors
have money enough to buy what
ducks they want to eat, and hope
they have, because l don't think any
OF them can kill them. How many
men IN the city of New Orleans,
would like to sit down TO his table
and enjoy q nice Duck :? But oh mol
cur Police Jurois want all to stay ip
l.afourche parish during the winter
and then 60 some where else to be
-,..-a ~ ~.ss~, u"u,U'r. :.
|ust the same law as We had in Ten.
nessee some years ago to sell whis.
key, the taxes we're so high that
small merchant could not sell it so
what became of - Only q few
could sell it those that had plenty
so it did not allow the poor man any
chance at all. Don't try to crush US
little poor laboring men and small
merchants and some day We may
grow large and have money to buy
ducks as one Of our jurors said the
other day to me. snow l ask ou,
Police Jurors 10 look over this mat
ter and see If Tm not halfway right
about this law. II it 10 allowed to
stand as it is it will cause some trou.

From Plymouth.

Probably the entire town of Ply
mouth was saved from destruction by
fire by the timely efforts of the newly
organized fire company, on last Sun
day afternoon. While the funeral SER
vices of Mr.. George Kephart, who
died on Saturday, were being perform
ed, the fire alarm was given. The roof
OF Mrs. Roberts residence was all
ablaze. There being no water in the
hydrants at the time, the firemen used
their axes and water buckets with good
effect, and in few minutes had the
fire under control. Had the alarm
been given few minutes later, no
doubt the business part of the town
would now be in ashes, as the building
was adjoining the residence of con-
stable Scoble and but few yards back
OF Mrs. Arditto's livery stable.
Mr.. George Kephart died in Ply
mouth on Saturday last, after three
days sickness, of pneumonia.
A brush fire last week burned several
hundred acres of pasturage on the
ranches of E. S. Barney, John Mathis,
I. Thompson and A. L. Waite.
