OPENING DAY
Oh THE
ST. MARY PARK,
Sunday, June 9TH, 1908.

The ST. Mary Park Association
will celebrate its opening day Of
June 7th, 1908, with a tremendou
| program of entertainment for it
friends and prospective patrons.
Excursions will be run from
Lake Charles, and al! intermedi
ate points, and the lower Cypre
mort country to Franklin for th'
accommodation of the people OF
that day, and it may be that
steamboat excursion will be rur
from Morgan City to bring up {
crowd from that quarter, whom i
seems, could not be provided fol
by the railroad company at thi:
time.
The program will consist Of six
harness and running races
bicycle races, and a shoot between
the Iberia and Franklin Gun
Clubs, and many other features
rhe prizes offered will be worth
contesting for on all sides, and
they will be close and well-match-
ed, as the promoters and mana
gers have spared no pains or eX-
pense to make this occasion long
remembered by everyone who at
tends. And right here we wish to
say to every citizen in the town
Of Franklin that he should at once
write to every friend of his and
request him to attend, and bring
all of his friends to the grand
opening of the ST. Mary Park.
Let us all put our shoulders to the
wheel and make the opening day
Of our Park one grand success.
The track and grounds have just
been finished, and are pronounced
by all who have seen them, and
who arc in position to judge, to
be way in advance Of the ordinary
country park and we believe that
we have the best one-half mile
track in the State. The grounds
are situated upon the east side Of
Bayou Teche, also opposite the
Curt House, and connected
with the town of Franklin by a
splendid bridge that spans the
stream opposite thereto, which
has just been finished by the Park
Association.
Some of the fastest harness and
running horses in the State will be
upon the track for the occasion;
indeed, Franklin has many very
fast and costly horses Of her own,
some of which will be in the list.
The price of admission to the
grounds will be 50 cents, children
25 cents. Refreshments will be
served upon the grounds at reas-
enable prices. Mr.. John c. Lew
is is President and General Man
ager, Mr.. Ed. A. Hanson, Treas
urer and Mr.. Frank E. Robertson,
Secretary. Besides these, the fol-
lowing gentlemen form the ac-
tive working committees:

A Remarkable Case.

One Of the most remarkable cases Of

ute Cough Cure. She says: "The
coughing and straining so weakened
me that run down in weight from 14S
to 80 pounds. l tried a number of rem

lungs and restored me to my norma
weight, health and strength" E. G

DEMOCRATS ossrRucrINc.
Democrats Still obstrueting Passage
Of Cuban and Canal Features Now
Before the United States Senate.

Washington, d. c., March 16.-Sen-
ator Foraker has called public atten-
tion to the fact of the approach of the
next national campaign. In speaking
of the democratic candidacy of M. e.
ingalls, Tor mayor of Cincinnati. Sem
ator Foraker says. that all over the
country the democrats are everywhere
preaching harmony and perfecting
their organization and that nomina-
tions for the local spring elections
throughout the country have been
made with reference to the greater
contests in the state and nation that
are Immediately to follow. Senator
Foraker points out that if Mr.. In
gals is elected mayor, he is in line
for the governorship of Ohio and then
the presidency
The democrats of the senate are de.
termined to make some radical amend
ment to the Panama canal treaty It
is stated that there is no intention
OF attempting to defeat the treaty but
that some of its provisions are OBJ
jectionable and should be amended.
Senator Morgan. however, is reported
to be hopeful of loading the treaty
down with such amendments that,
while it will be ratified here, the
amendment would be sufficiently OBJ
jectionable to Colombia to insure its
defeat there. AS it takes a two-thirds
vote of the senate to ratify any treaty
the democrats are in position to
continue making trouble.
The senate committee on foreign re-
lations has reported the Cuban reci-
procity treaty favorably, but with a
provision that it shall be submitted to
the house of representatives as we'll
as acted upon by the senate This
opens up the entire fight again, and
will throw the treaty over until next
December. OF course the president
has power to call an extra session of
congress at any time, but he has not
expressed any intention of taking such
action. Opposition to the entire
treaty. however, in any form, still con-
tinues in the senate from Senators
Teller and Patterson, of Colorado; ;
McEmery and Foster, of Louisiana.
and other senators, based on the local
interests Of their constituents.
The decision of the senate that the
Cuban reciprocity treaty must be acted
upon by the house establishes a pre-
cedent and recognizes the constitu-
tional prerogative of the latter body
to vote upon all measures affecting the
public revenue. AS matter of con-
sistency all of the other reciprocity
treaties negotiated from time to time
will have to be submitted to congress
as whole
In the matter of the Cuban treaty
the required action Of the house
amounts to the same thing as the con
sideration by congress of the original
Cuban bill Of last year. Not only must
the house vote on the reciprocal rates
but amendments can be offered, suct
as provided last year for the abolition
of the differential. The democratic
senator's as a rule, express themselve.
as satisfied to allow the Cuban treat,
to be acted upon with the amendmen
for the submission to the house added
, believing that the treaty will fail il
the house.

IMPORTANT NOTICE.

WHEREAS, the attention of the Board
of Directors of the Farmers & Mechan-
les Mutual Insurance Association of Cecil
Co., Md, having been called to the dan
gerous and insecure condition of many of
the chimneys and fues. on account Of the
deleterious effect of the coal gas render
ing the mortar to the consistency of wet
sand, which filters out leaving assures,
and in some cases the bricks crumble
leaving an opening as large as half bricks;
and on investigation we are satisfied of
the fruitfulness of the statement.
Therefore it is resolved, that we earn
estly request and en1oin on all policy
holders in the above Association, to ex-
anime chimneys and fiues, and if so re-
quired to repair the same, as the season is
at hand for temporary fires of light wood,
thereby increasing the risk.
BY order of the Board
