What MIR. Jonas Said About
Gov. Heard.

Picayune.
Baton Rouge, La, Nov. "a
When Elk Senator Jonas delivered
his opening address in Washing
ton Artillery Hall he passed some
structures upon Governor Heard,
according to the press reports
of his speech, that the Governor
naturally resented. Directly the
city papers arrived. and Govern
or Heard read the report OF that
meeting. he addressed Senator
Jonas the following letter:
State of Louisiana,
Executive Department..
Baton Rouge, La, Nov. "a, 1908.
To the Editor of the Picayune,
New Orleans, La: Dear Sir
hand you herewith copies of cor
respondence between Hon. 3. F..
Jonas and myself. These let
tiers are elf-exp]anatOry, and L
trust you will do me the kind
ness to publish them, as the
matter to which they refer APP
peared in a recent issue of your
paper. With respect, l am,
yours truly,
w. w. HEARD.
State of Louisiana,
Executive Department,
Baton Rouge, La, Nov. 10, 1908.
Hon. B. F. Jonas, New Orleans,
La.
Dear Sir-I have just read in
the Picayune of to day the write
up of your speech delivered at
Washington Artillery Hall last
evening,and I note the following:
He admitted that he was
Governor two or three times.
and he meant no reflection on his
friend, Heard, for Foster seemed
to control affairs very much dur
ing Mr.. Heard's term as when
he was Governor.
I am at a loss to know why
you should so gratuitously as
sumo that Senator Foster
"seemed to control affairs during
Mr.. Heard $ term as when he
was Governor Such an asSer
ton is untrue, and is as unfair
to the Senator as it is unjust and
unkind to me. He has been,
and is, my friend, but at no time
has he sought to control affairs
during my term, nor has he or
any other man done so. Your
assumption to that effect is alto.
gether unfounded, and I ask you
to make proper correction in
your next public utterance.
Yours respectfully,
w. w. HEARD.
Elk Senator Jonas replied dis
claiming any intention Of reflect
ing upon the Governor, and
stating that he had been mis-
quoted. His letter to the Gov
ernor Is as follows:
New Orleans, La, Nov. 20, 1908.
Hon. w. w. Heard. Baton
Rouge, La: My Dear Gov
ernor-I have just received your
letter of yesterday, commenting
upon my speech delivered on the
18th. l am quoted incorrectly
by the PicayuDe, as you will
find by reference to my speech,
which is published to-day, as
taken down stenographically,
and published in the Times
Democrat. The Picayune also
had copy, but did not publish
it. did not assume that Sen
ator Foster seemed to control
Offices for you during your term
as Governor. On the contrary,
I disclaim any such assertion.
I merely meant to state what
was the general opinion, that
Governor Foster possessed con-
siderable influence with you in
the appointments to Office, as
was but natural, since he has
been your stanch supporter,
and, as you know, his influence
is generally sought by people APP
plying for Office. I never init
mated, in any way, that he con-

graphic report he says is cor
rect, is herewith given:
WHAT MIR. JONAS SAID.
Now, fellow citizens, Cover
nor Foster speaks of his two
Administrations, and the rcStO-
ration of party harmony. Gov
ernOr Foster says in that adj
dress that he has been twice
elected Governor of the State of
Louisiana. Well, fellow citizens,
that is history; it will pass down
in history; there is no occasion
to talk about it now. APPLAUSE
Rutherford Il. Hayes was elected
president OF the United States
in 1876. That is history, too. [

and submit to them. Mr.. Eos

if not three. but most certainly
for two. daughter and APP
plause.)
NOW. in saying that, l mean
no reflection on Governor Heard,
who is an admira BILE man. who
has given US a fine adminiStra-
ton. and who has been a friend
of mine since his boyhoOd: but
somehow or other Mr.. Foster
has retained a great deal of
patronage, almost as much as he
enjoyed during his own tenure
of eight years. (Applause.)
ISIt so impoS~iblc:
Daily States.
In his stereotyped anti-boss
speech at New Iberia yesterday
General JastremSki declared
that it would be as reasonable to
expect the leopard to change its
skin as to expect that the ward
bosses should change their meth
DDS. It is not quite clear just
what grievance, personal or
otherwise, General Jastremski
may have against the bosses
other than that they declined to
give their support to him instead
of to Judge Blanchard.
The States is not an authority
on leopards. and it is therefore
willing to credit the generals
statement as to the impossibility
of their changing their skin. But
because a leopard cannot change
its skin is no argument that an
Office-chaSer cannot change his
political coat Quite to the con-
trary. we have frequently seen
this done with lightning-like ra
pidity. although we must observe
that political turucOats, as a
class, have not generally been
received with much popular ia vOr
in Louisiana. In so far as the
New Orleans leaders are CON
cerned, they, like all Democrats
in Louisiana, have a perfect right
to select the State leader under
whose banners they will fight
during the present campaign.
They are fighting in the open,
like most of the other Democrats
of the State are fighting, and
they are not going around Whin
ing and attempting to dlscrdit
their party and State as General
Jastremsli is constantly doing.
But this brings US back to the
question raised by the general in
his New Iberia speech concern
ing the leopard and it's spots.
AS the leopard cannot change its
spots, so the general argues, a
ward boss cannot change his
ways. Now is this really so?
General Jastrems1i will scarcely
deny that he has changed his
ways-Or at the least his pro-
feSSiOnS-mOSt amazingingly Of
late. For a great number Of
years he has been faithful ally
and lieutenant of the ward boss
es, and yet, in spite of this, he
suddenly blooms out as violent
enemy of bosses. For nearly a
generation he has enjoyed the

IT IS BUSY
WhitehOrse People PrCp.r-
 ing for Navigation.

The water front at Whitehorse pre- sents busy appearance. Everything is being prepared for navigation. Not only are the steamers being gotten ready for the summers work, but a large force Of men are employed build ing scows. These are being built for the accommodation of the Panama rush and also for the purpose of making early runs to Dawson. The river is al- ways SO low when the ice first goes out that the scows are always a favored means of transportation for the first few days of the nayigable period, so many of those who are taking freight into the interior are having scows built at Whitehorse.
 Dr. s. Morley Wiskett, who arrived from Whitehorse yesterday, states that there would be more scows built if there were lumber on the ground.

A SELL
Valdez People Fooled by
 Ships Flag.

II. A. Van Amringe, representing W. J. Van Schuyver & Co.,, who sell the Cyrus Noble whisky, tells a good story on the manner in which the peo- pie of Valdez were fooled by tho cap tain of the Nome City recently. It had been rumored at Valdez that the own CTS of the Nome City were about to sell the craft, but to whom there was diff ference of opinion as the rumor was not specific. On the last trip of that boat into the metropolis of the vest ward country, Mir, Van Amringe was a passenger, and as the ship neared the wharf the captain, in honor of his guest, raised a flag bearing the name "CyruS Noble"
 As the new colors were sent to the masthead the people of Valdez, who were all watching the approaching ship, with one voice said, "Its right, she has been sold"
 Then the old question, "To whom?" became very alive. Bets were freely made as to what line belonged the flag. Finally one man got glimpse of the flag through his binoculars. "You're all wrong," he said, "she's sold to the whisky trust, That's old Cyrus Noble's flag"
