and especially those of the East.
There is one thing we know
and remember quite well, how
ever. and that is the bubbling
confidence Tom frequently ex.
pressed in his ability to carry
the campaign to a happy and
triumphant conclusion, and his
declaration. frequently pub
lished, that he had always
wanted to manage d national
campaign-a wish that he had
long desired to have gratified.
Well, it was finally gratitied, and
in the light of the election re-
turns it is quite easy to see that
his appetite for that kind of
business has entirely disap.
peared, and he wants no more
of it, although there is no reason
to believe that any other man
under the circumstances could
have done better. Toms man.
agement, while it lasted, was
one of the rOsiest and most hope
full things we have ever wit
messed, and was rich in smiles
and predictions, which were in
striking contrast to the silence
and mOrOseness of the thrifty
CortelyOu, who smiled not and
neither did he talk, but steadily
reaped the golden grain of the
trusts. While Tom was working
his mouth in the campaign
CortelyOu was working the
reaper which gathered in the
shekels. And it came to pass
that in the end Toms reputation,
which was staked on his beloved
State of Indiana, went up the
cruel spout.

Gentlemen, 1t Is Up to You.


Shreveport Times.
The school bond issue has
been overwhelmingly defeated
by the people of the State. The
voters of Ouachita, and the voters
of st. Mary took the same view
of the question. So it cannot be
charged that one part of the State
had one view, and another part
looked at it differently. Perhaps
the only parish in the State where
a systematic campaign was con-
Quoted in it's favor, was CaddO.
BY a diligent campaign of educa-
ton, conducted in the face of a
bitter opposition, the people
were brought to a realization of
the real merits of the PROPOSE
ton. and they gave it a hand
some majority. They are to be
congratulated.
1t is useless to discuss the
causes which led to the defeat of
the amendment. Every man in
the State knows, or ought to
know, and if he does not know it
is too late to inform him now.
Suffice it to say that one of the
greatest movements for the
uplifting and betterment of the
people of this State has been
crushed out under the iron heel
of prejudice.
Gentlemen who have opposed
this measure have all been ardent
in their protestations that they
favored building new school
houses. but the method proposed
was not the right one in their
|OpiniOn. That method has been
defeated by the popular will.
1t is now up to these gentlemen
to devise some other method.
Theirs is the responsibility for
the defeat of the method pro-
posed by Governor Blanchard.
Theirs is the responsibility to
provide a better one.
But if they should devise a
plan which is reasonable, and
will accomplish results, they will
find the supporters Of the late
lamented plan, willing and ready
to carry it to success. They will
not ind ! petulantn nor preiudiced
oppositioo-

Tom Taggart s Reputation.

Tom Taggart s Reputation.
New Orleans States.
So far as the Democratic side
is concerned the Presidential
contest resulted in numerous
calamities, and among them
looms up the irretrievable loss
of Tom Taggart's reputation. 1t
will be remembered that at the
beginning of the, campaign, and
every time thereafter that he
had an opportunity to open his
mouth, Tom declared in a way
that all the world could hear
him: Il have staked my reputa-
ton on carrying Indiana for
Parker and Davis" Well, the
election was held the other day
and Indiana gave Roosevelt and
Fairbanks a majority of more
than 10000, so it is evident that
Toms reputation has gone
scooting and scurrying down
the wind to some far whereness
from which it will never return.
If we are not mistaken no
official appraisement has ever
been made of Toms reputation,
hence the value of it will per-
haps forever remain q matter of
doubt. There are some people,
we are sorry to say, who insist
that Tom never had any reputa-
ton to lose in the first instance,
hence there has been no loss;
that in the matter of carrying
Indiana he merely wagered
nothing against something with
his usual ssngfroid, as the
French would say. These per
sons, who, for what we know to
the contrary, may be well &C
quainted with lin, argue that
Tom is nothing more than a fair
type of the ward politician who
has acquired considerable money
by the successful management
of q hotel and a gambling resort
which are literally patronized
by the aristocrats If the sport
ing fraternity.
If Tom has been mi judged
and is the victim of brutal
SANDER and injustice, it is fol
his friends to assert and prove
that fact. Senator Bailey Of
Texas. who stood sponsor fol
him before the Democratic
National Committee and was
more than any other person, re
sponsible for his selection as
manager of the campaign. should
say whether or not the state
ments are true. We are free t.
admit that we know nothing
about Toms antecedents, and
never heard of him until he was
made chairman of the Demo
cratic National COMMITTEES
against the advice and earnes,

men il the party, who contended

Effort to Incorporate.

Our county seat, Manchester,
will vote in a few days upon the
question Of incorporation, and we
are told by citizens of the place
that the success of the PROPOSE
ton is very doubtful. 1t is hard
for us to understand how any
man laying claim to an ordinary
amount of intelligence and pro-
gressiveness can oppose incorpo-
ration. The community can
never hope to advance materially
in any direction in the absence
of corporate existence. Official
ly and technically it is even
nameless, and only by courtesy
is it permitted to appear on the
maps and postoliice guide as
Manchester.
We are not informed, but sup
pose that the boogy of taxes is
responsible for the opp6sIr1on.
We do not know how it is in
Manchester, but usually it is the
people who pay no taxes that
raise this objection. We dis
claim any purpose to interfere
with the affairs Of our neighbors,
but sincerely hope they will not
make the mistake of defeat
ing Incorporation. = Tulla homa

Keeps OUlerS HUH ColllPoolhS
with their monopoly, and also
because they buy their revenue
stamps at wholesale, at seven
and one half per cent discount,
and charge them to their Gus
toners at par. One well known
firm is said to make $4,000 a
year by this arrangement. In
their effort to preserve the inter-
nal revenue, the brewers support
tariff reduction, and even free
trade; but only insofar as it does
not injure them.
In Great Britain the excise
system has produced the same
eHects-the concentration of the
business, the accumulation of
enormous fortunes, the control of
public houses by brewers and
distilers and the building up of
a political power which is bull
wark of Tory conservatism and
an obstacle to all real reform
and advance.
To tax liquor is inevitably to
call a "rum power" into politics.
Where the liquor sellers do not
throw their money and influence
into politics of their own volition
they are forced to do so. In
New York, for instance, the in
fluence and the contributions of
the liquor sellers are controlled
by the party or factions that
control the excise commissioners
and the police department, and
the liquor sellers are compelled to
use their influence and give their
money to every election. In
dictments are found for viola
tions of excise regulations and
corded up in pigeon holes by the
thousand, never to be taken down
unless the saloon keeper is re-
calcitrant, while spasmodic raids
and arrests enforce the necessity
Of keeping on the good side of
the powers that be.
And besides the work that is
compelled and the voluntary
contributions" that are exacted
for party, there is a special SER
vice and ransom to individual
officials and politicians. This is
one of the reasons why such
enormus amounts of money are
spent in New York even in trivial
election contests and why officials
grow rich on small salaries. This
enormus liquor influence, organ
lied, disciplined and controlled
through the very laws intended
to lesson the evils of intemper-
ance, is one of the great agencies
which have made democratic
government in the true sense of
the term as n-eXistent in New
York as in Constantinople.
AS it is in New York so it is
in degree at least in other cities.
Where licenses are limited in
number they become the more
valuable. When they are raised
in price the number of unlicensed
liquor srllers who are even more
under the control of corrupt poll
clans than are the licensed ones,
increase.
In Philadelphia the power to
grant licences has been placed in
the hands of the judges of the
courts. Whether the ultimate
result be good or bad, it is GER
tain that in the long run the
political power growing out of
the liquor business will not be
diminished, and that the pecun-
airy interests involved in the
traffic will enter into the nomi-
nation and election of judges.
Prohibition puts liquor selling
