Then and Now.

New Orleans states.]
tits singular that Gen. Jastrem-
ski should at this late date appear
in furious opposition to the bosses,
and to machine politics. Time was
when this was not thus-when he
did not aspire to the role of tsma-
chine BUSTER" nor is it according
to our recollection that he pulled
voluntarily aloof from the bosses
merely because he did not like
them. Indeed we remember quite
we'll when he was Chairman of a
State Central Committee which
included every ward boss in New
Orleans. In the spring of 1902 a
State Convention was held and
measures were taken to bring
about harmony between the two
rival State Committees which had
been created by the division on
the Lottery question. Aproposi-
ton was made to merge those
Committees as the first step to-
wards restoration of harmony
within the Democratic party after
the bitter fight of that campaign.
Gen. Jastremski was Chairman of
the Committee which included the
New Orleans bosses and machine
politicians, and he fought strenu-
ously against the proposition to
harmonic, and for the retention
Of his Committee as it then stood,
as separate and rival Committee.
| In the reorganization General
Jastremski was left out of the new
| Committee, and thereby was ac-
complished his enforcement from
| the bosses he now so heartily de-
spises. These are simple matters
Of history which go to show the
| glass house which General JAS
tremski occupies while engaged
in throwing rocks at others. The
| editor of the States is fond of
Gen. Jastremski personally and
regrets exceedingly that he should
have pitched his campaign upon
SO inconsistent plane. Captain
Fitzpatrick himself, whom the
General singles out as the arch
boss of the whole bunch, could
with much more consistency take
the stump in opposition to boss
rule and machine politics than
General Jastremski can; for the
reason that he has on several
occasions held important public
Offices by the votes of the people,
while the Generals almost con-
tinuous career of public service
for nearly a generation has, with
J trifling exceptions, been by virtue
, of the patronage system which he
now so soundly berates. There
, are gentlemen in Louisiana who
may consistently make war upor
such things, but our old frien6
the General is not one of them.

We sell every description of Real

Donaldsonville Times: Gen.
Jastremski has been holding ap.
pointive Offices for the past twenty
years, and it is rather remarkable
that he should ask the Democrats
of the State for the highest Office
in their gift to start with. Men
generally get accustomed to being
elected by the people before they
aspire SO high. Another thing
remarkable is, that after getting
the benefit of appointments from
the Governors of Louisiana for so
many years, the General was not
able to see any objection to the
appointive system until he offered
for Governor himself.

BENTON, LA.
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1908.
SENATOR MURPHY ]. FOSTER.

The claims of various Demo-
cratic candidates for office are be-
ing canvassed by the people of
the State of Louisiana. It is
natural that each voter should
have a favorite for whom he would
prefer to cast his ballot; but the
primary consideration moving
every good Democrat is the wish
to have elected the ablest and
worthiest man for the position
which means efficient public SER
vice and 'sthe greatest good to
the greatest number"
Therefore, that candidate who
shall combine within himself
requisite merit and q record for
efficient party service; who is
great in intellect, courageous in
conviction, unfaltering in loyalty
and answering in integrity, is
the man who should be nominat-
ed. Such a man is United States
Senator Murphy j. Foster, who is
q candidate for re- election.
Elected member of the House
of Representatives from st. Mary
parish in 1872, there has been no
battle OF Democracy fought in
this State from that time to this,
to which Senator Fosters time,
his talents and his means have
not contributed. AS speaker,
those who have heard him will
testify to his skill and power
His is the faculty of driving
stright to the heartof every ques-
ton under discussion; of demon
strating its truth, if true, or of
exposing its fallacy, if fallacious,
in terse, virile English that con-
vinces his listener and overwhelms
his opponent. A stalwart and
consistent Democrat, always
maintaining the cause of good
government and Democratic rule,
he holds a soft place in a large
majority of Democratic house,
holds.
The people know his political
creed as they know him, and are
pleased to regard Senator Foster
as the representation especially
of their needs and requirements.
The mass of the people know that
his lines Of thought and action
have been always for their up
building and ennoblement; that
in the great underlying purpose
to enlarge their lives, and broaden
their horoscope, and increase
their rights of citizenship, he is
always their friend.
There is perhaps no man within
the limits of the State better
equipped for the faithful, intelli-
gent, conscientious and proper
discharge of the grave response
bilites which devolve upon q
United States Senator. Certainly
no one will labor more indefatiga-
bly, to uphold the honor and Dig
nifty Of his State and guard its
every interest.
II is needless for US to say

AN ALL-sTAR TEAM.

The football season is now a thing
OF the past, and in accordance with the
time-honored custom We beg to suggesr
the following talent for an all-star
football team:
Center rush. Andrew Carnegie.
His long experience in the iron and
steel business has made him unyield'
ing, and owing to the vast number
of books he has given away he looks
mighty good on paper.
Right guarde, Russell Sage. This
gentlemen guards everything that
comes within his grasp in such con
sistent, strenuous manner that is the
only logical candidate
Left guard, Het Green. Second
only to Russell on the guarding prop
osition.
Right tackle, John D. Rockefeller,
who has tackled everything in the
country with marked success.
Left TACKLE. ]. Pierpont Morgan.
Anything that gets by John d. is
pie for him.
Right end, Charles NJ. Schwab. He
has clearly proven, although he start
ed out in life with q beggarly salary
Of one million dollars per year. that
man is certain to come to a right end
Left end, William Jennings Bryan.
Nobody will deny Mr.. Bryan this hon
or. which he earned in two hard presi-
dental campaignss.
Quarterback, Nelson A. Miles. He
is . cool brainy general. and also
covers a good deal OF ground at times,
as. for instance, ON the occasion Of his
recent ride. He is strong on inter
ference.
Right halfoack, Barney Oldfeid.
Owing 10 his great speed, he stands
alone as a claimant for this position.
Left halfback, Lou Dillon.
FullbacR, Colonel Henry Watterson,
Noted for the ferceness with which
he bucks the color line and the smart
set, and splendid on the offensive

A TOAST TO THE FUTURE.

Now that the white people of this
city are about TO get together on po-
litical lines it might be good idea
to point out some of the work that is
before US in the next few years
In the first place we want to encour-
age the coming Of small factories and
industries generally that will give EN-
ployment to the idle. We should see
to 1t that the advantages Of Brunswick,
as a seaport and as the healthiest
spot on all the South Atlantic, is
properly placed before the capitalists
Of the east and the west, who, are at
all times seeking profitable invest
ments in the south.
We should revive that old spirit OF
civic pride that was in the ascendency
{ here at one time, but is now lost In
the maze of internal discord that has
prevailed for a long time.
We should forget the bitterness and
the wrangles of the past and set our
ambitions on a loftier plane of action
for the future. The matter OF fac
tionalism should be RELOCATED to the
last seat in the verv last column Of
things forgot and we should all join
In a common cause.-the material adj
vancement of the best interest of the
port of Brunswick and her people Doth
Individually and collectively.
There is no more laudable ambition,
no task more perfect in its conception
than is the one of aiding the master
planner in carrying out his DEGREES.
Brunswick was intended to- be the
her forefathers saw the true situation
or not, it is fact that they were cor

had given to her the choicest gifts in

Therefore 1t is our duty to see to il
that the plans of the wise men OF the
long ago are carried out to the let
ter The opportunity is a great one
one that involves the very charactel
of our people.
What will we do with the trus

Is this not an incentive?
