SPEAK AGAIN. MR. SNYDER

In an editorial, under the head quoted
! the Monroe News says:
Some months ago ex-Lieut. Governor
Robert Snyder wrote strong article
dealing elaborately with the patronage
handled by Louisiana governors, setting
forth the evils of this abundance of pat
ronage and advocating curtailment of it.
The article was read and this part
heartily endorsed by the masses and
many leaders of the party. The ex-lieu-
tenant governor also in the same article
said something about white primaries,
btu failed to recommend what is needed.
He recommended a state convention, the
delegates to which shall be selected by
white Democratic primaries
Yes, it is in order for Mr.. Snyder to
speak again, and when he speaks again
he should say I am In favor of white
primaries for the election of delegates to
a state nominating convention because
this would be somewhat concession to
the people and would be direct help
to me because in my parish and the par
ishes like mine the Democrats or white
people are in hopeless minority; a few
hundred against thousands of negroes
who figure in the count of population
and the basis of delegations to a con-
vention If the nominations were made
by primary elections at which only
Democrats could vote, | fancy | would
scarcely rally corporaPs guard to my
support. My strength lies in the popu-
lation basis. which includes the negro
who is disqualified from all participation
in Democratic political affairs, consti-
tutes the population. -...
In speaking again he would explain
that delegates to the Democratic conver-
ton, on the vote of the population with
the disqualified aggregated therein, sell
ected by white Democratic primaries,
fill the bill to his notion and give him
a grab in the convention where cut and
dried program may be unfxed.
Mr.. Snyder is, as are the other gentle
men who are aspiring for office-who
are wishing to be struck by political
lightning, but Mr.. Snyder, i'll speaking
again, as other politicians should,
The Caucasian. (Shreveport, La.) 1900-192?, 1903-05-14

must not forget that all the people may
be fooled sometimes, but they are not
idiots when they are called to figure the
difference between a convention OF dele
gates elected on tn basis of population,
and primary nomination direct by the
Democrats who vote, and whose votes
are not neutralized in convention
where the majority of representatives
may be from the parishes in which the
disqualified predominant, but figure in
the basis Of the population.
What the Democrats who vote want
is a square deal, and they propose to
have it.

PRACTICAL POLITICS.

In these days of practical politics it is
next to an impossibility for man to
| reach State or district office unless he
is connected with combine. The good
old days when every man toted his own
skillet have gone, perhaps forever, but
the recollection of them affords pleas
unre. 1t would be refreshing for the
voter who has no strings on him to be
able to vote for man who seeks office
On his own merits and is independent of
clques, one who has not resorted to in
trigue to get nomination, and hopse to
win because the people feel that they
can trust him. Such a man, however,
does not get an elective office often.-
Mansfield Journal.
Practical politics means get there"
and get there" means that to satiate
an ambition, to secure the job political
principles may be laid aside and old
friends sacrificed if need be for al
liances, even if questionable, give assur-
ance of get there This is the result
of personal politics, the aggregation Of
interests whose aim is to get there" at
any cost. While the good old days will
never be repeated, there are indications,
strong and positive, that the people who
think are thinking resoutely in opposi-
ton to the combines, to the lone man
power" to the aggregation of interests
which leave the people, the great ma
jority Of the Democrats who vote and
carry elections for Democracy, in the
attitude Ct cyphers. 1t was this spirit of
personal Or individual domination which
led to the opposition and the defeat of
the lottery whose power in its political
dictation had become insufferable and
and almost absolute The spirit of con-
troll by the few must be met and crushed
as was the lottery. All power is from
the people and must rest in the people,
the great majority of Democrats who
vote, and who, being tired of cut and
dried programs, propose to resist and
to insist on the right to govern.

PROFESSOR AND NINE cURIE AND THEIR
DAUGHTER
husband is as much the diseoverer OF
radium as she is. They have worked
together for many years. She is a
very attractive woman, delicate
blond, with light blue eyes. In addi-
ton to her laboratory experiments she
gives lessons four times week at a
normal school for girls in Sevres.
Professor Curie himself is forty
years old, tall and well built. He is
essentially a dreamer. but the bust
ness ability that is lacking in him is to
be found in full measure in his wife.
He dresses with the negligence SO
often found in men of genius. Alto
gether he impresses one as man of
marked individuality and possesses a
fascination of manner which it is diff
ficult to explain Like his wife, he is
devoted to their little daughter, a girl
of six, and both take personal charge
of her education. She was born about
the time they first got glimpse Of the,
mineral which is destined to make
their names famous in the world of
science.
IT must be said 1t Is altogether un-
likely radium will be commercial pos
sibility for some time to come. This is
owing to the cost of extracting it from
the pitchbIende. Professor Curie estf-
mates that the initial operation where
by but two decigrams were secured

1000 Lines Out Of Business
bur the Play Went On.

New York, Dec. 11.-At the Belasco
New York performance OF Sweet Kitty
Bellairs' was given. the curtain failed
TO work properly and there were such
long waits that the final scene was not
enacted until midnight
The reason for the delay was not an
nounced TO the audience. but It became
known that the trouble was caused by
some vandal who on Sunday night cut
the thousand and more fly ropes used 20
raise the massive scenery and properties
employed in the production The result
was so serious that IL was not until a
o'clock Wednesday afternoon that Mr.
Belasco was certain that he could give
the performance last night.
The damage was discovered when the
stage hands went TO the theatre Mon
day morning prepared to set the stage
for the first dress rehearsal They found
that new ropes must be procured before
a single object could he raised Mr.
Beiasco WIS notified, and engaged two
gangs OF men TO work day and night to
repair the intricate rope mechanism.
The men went TO work with a will
but at noon yesterday nearly 100 ropes
had still TO be put in place. and II was
not until four hours later that Mr.
Belasco saw the final one hung.
The ropes we're new and stiff. They
kinked and balked. the new drum rope
stuck repeatedly and interfered with the
curtain drop. and all kinds OF trouble
was experienced Every set was hard
10 manage and Il was with the creates,
difficulty that the scenery could be
placed without mishap.
Mr. Belasco said at night that he did
not know who the vandal was OF how
he got into tho theatre Sunday. He
stated that on Saturday night he had
discharged several stage hands.
