The Old Cabildo,
Baton Rouge Time.

@sch AsossBo
Not the least interesting among
the attractions of the st. Louis ex-
position will be the state buildings,
and of these perhaps the most
noteworthy is that of Louisiana,
thus described by G. B. Wells in
an illustrated article in the April
magazine number of The Outlook.
Directly across the avenue from
Missouri's stately pile stands COM
pleted the building which, by vir-
tue of its historical association.
should most command the visitors
attention. 1t is Louisiana 's'repro-
duction of "The Old Cabildo," the
New Orleans city government
building of the Spanish regime, as
it existed in 1903 when the repre-
sentatives of Napoleon and Presi-
dent Jefferson met there to COM
plete the transfer of $50, 900 square
miles of territory then known as
as Louisiana, to celebrate which
event this exposition is held. The
original Cabildo is still standing
on jackson square, New Orleans,
where it faces park glowing with
tropical trees and plants, while it's
duplicate here at presents stands
on frozen ground, surrounded with
ice and snow. It is built in three
stories of typical French architec-
ture, with a Roman arched arcade
running the full length of two
sides of the building, while sur
rounding the characteristic inte-
rior stone paved court are balco-
nies jutting out from the two up
per floors on all sides, which lead
directly to the prison cells. In
the court yard during the Spanish
occupation, criminals were pun
ished with tortue and death, and
later it served as public mart of
slaves. Here the old Spanish
stocks and other Instruments of
torture will be exhibited. In the
council chamber, where the trans
fer actually took place, will be
shown the original treaty between
France and the United States.
The building will be fled with OBJ
jects of historical interest, and
furnished throughout in the style
peculiar to those ancient days."

Hon. II. H. White of Alexan.
dria, in a letter to Town Talk,
urges the creation of q forestry
commission in Louisiana to pro-
tect her trees from ruthless de,
struction. In the course of his
letter he says: "a commission
should be created whose duty il
should be to examine and report
as to actual conditions. and as to
what beneficial measure may be
devised, and based upon that re-
port vital, comprehensive, con-
servative forestry law should be
enacted, and forest wardens should
be appointed to see to the enforce
ment of its provisions. The de-
struction of infant timber should
be stopped, and the conditions con-
ducive to forest fires should be
prevented; and not satisfied with
negative provisions, some means
should be provided to reforest our
already denuded lands. So should
our own duty be performed and
the safety and prosperity of our
children be protected" Baton

Methodist Revival.

A very successful series OF revival
meetings are being hel at the Methodist
church. They have been in operation
for a week, and will continue all this
week and probably longer. So far, a
number have indicated desire to lead
a better life. Pastor Elliot has had his
church thoroughly organized into COM
mittees, and an effort has been made to
Leave card, bearing an invitation 10
the services, at every housein Aberdeen.
This. no doubt. accounts for the large
numbers attending and the great good
being done.
The meetings open with fifteen min.
utes in song service, and the preaching
is done with view of reaching first the
intellect and then the heart. Not much
emotion, but intense interest and con-
viction thus far have characterized the
meetings.

GENERAL CHAFFEE, THE NEW CHIEF.


General Chaffee, who was an Ohio boy
OF eighteen or nineteen when the Civil
War broke out, instead Of joining the
volunteers with his friends and neigh.
bors, enlisted as private in the regular
army. This fact makes his rise to the
highest place an absolutely unique thing
in our military history. H. served for
twenty.seven years in the Sixth Cavalry
regiment. Pomotion in the regular army
is slow thing for a man in the ranks,
and Chaffee was not captain until two
years after the end of the civil war. His
rapid advancement has come since the
outbreak of the war with Spain. He
made himself famous when he led the re.
lief expedition to Picking. The allied
forces could hardly have been got under
way but for the decision of Chaffee to GO
alone with his United States troops if the
others continued to hang back. This
man for twenty-one years was captain OF
Company OF the Sixth Calvary serving
everywhere in the Indian campaigns
from the Rio Grande to the Canadian
line. General Chaffee is an aggressive
discipinarian, man of simple and solid
character, an honor to the United States
army and to the military profession

Rise and Cheer!

To the impoverished observer Of this
era Of unparalleled prosperity for the
prosperous the fact will be interesting
that the net earnings Of the steel trust
for the six months ending June 30,
1908. were $G1.56s, 235. This is about
AZ per cent lat the rate Of 8 per cent
per annum on the total capitalization
of the trust, water and all. That IL
truly a prosperous figure. But it is ut
the rate Of about 80 per cent per an.
mum on that part Of the capitalization
which isn't water, which is prosperity
indeed. The farmers who have helped
to make these profits by paying high
prices, and tho workingmen who have
helped 1t by taking low wages, are cor
daily invited to rise and cheer.-Chi.

Gist Of the Leading Topics Discussed
In the Popular Magazines.
A CORNER IN LABOR.

That vigorous student of labor and
caoital, Ray Stannard Baker, hae a
whangng article on the situation in San
Francisco, in the February McClure's.
After ferreting out "The New Industrial
Conspiracy in Chicago" exposing the
''Trust's New Tool" in New York, Mr..
Baker, vending his way to the city OF the
Golden Gate, stumbledth upon con-
ditions still more novel, still more start
ling, fraught with yet deeper menace !;
and forthwith he has seized his pen and
and in his usual searching. fearless stvle,
as given the results of his investigation.
The singularity of the situation in San
Francisco is that there it is not steel, nor
steamer, nor petroleum which is mopoli-
zed Mr.. Baker finds that it is labor that
is concerned. San Francisco is in the
grasp and at the mercy OF the most
powerful union organization that has
ever existed. The unions own the mayor,
the city govern ment, and practically
everything else. The non-union man has
ceased to exist. He has "gotten out to
some other place" as a labor leader
termed it-and that other place has
proved to be, not another city, but the
heavenly regions above. With everybody
unionized, from musician to grave-digger
and peanut-boy, with the labor from
other cities kept out by careful system
Of pessimistic publication, and strikes sure
of success with union mayor who will
not call out the police, the San Francisco
workman soon ound himself in clover,

and-a-half fol eight hours work-and
this in the industrial city Of the United
States the cheapest to live in.
The results OF the situation-some
amusing. s.me ominous-are related by
Mr.. Baker with his usual good sense.
and the article is certainly a most re-
markable one.

When a speaker Of either political
party is invited to Detroit he is
treated to the best there Is in that
ancient western city. There is, too, u
certain exhilaration about the atmos-
phere Of Detroit that has led many
orators to fall into IMPORTATION, and
this may account for the extraordinary
hyperbole INDUCED in by ex-senator
John w. Thurston in that city week
or two ago. He said:
"Blind as bats in the serene sun
shine Of his success, they have swarm
ed in the darkness and flung their puny
ink blots at the shining splendor of his
stainless shield. But the country
knows and the world knows and i'm
partial history will declare that the
war administration Of Russell A. Al
ger stands first in all annals Of re-
corded time"
With the taste of embalmed beef still
lingering in the minds of "the boys"
and remnants Of the coat Of white
wash that was laid on so thick that
the Stainless shields" Of Alger and
Corbin are still incrusted with 1t, we
certainly have no record to match 1t.
The Thurston utterances must be At
tributed to the lavish entertainment
that the general had, with his usual
prodigality, poured out to his old frierd
the ex-senator.
The statement made that the euloyy
cost Alger a pretty penny is all rub
blsh. Next winter, when congress Is
in session and Thurston is attending
to his railroad or trust clients infer
ests. then Alger can fully repay him
for his burst Of eloquence by vote
in committee, and no one need be TIE
wiser.

GEN. WEYLER ON THE LATE WAR.

General Wey!er's forthcoming book
"My Military and Political Campaign in
Cubt," ought to have large sale in the
United Statesmen because it will take
rank as a standard work of history or
politics, but because we Americans are
a people fond of humor, and, although
General Weyler is an unconscious hum
orist, if the advance notices regarding
his book are true, he will tvke rank as a
humorist Of the first order. According to
Gel Nacion" OF Madrid, one OF the most
important chapters OF the book will he
that relating to Weyler's project Of land
ing on American soil. General Weyler
proposed to sieze every available vessel
in Havana Harbor, and, before the ap-
pearance of the American squadron off
the coast. to put % 900 men in Louisiana,
where, according to his belief, "the NAL.
contents of the United States govern
ment, still smarting under their defeat
of the civil war, would rise en- masse and
make common cause with Spain"
This was the belief OF one OF the fore
most generals Of Spain. u man whose
political reputation was second only to
his supposed military genius, and who
h, s occupied some OF the highest political
Offices under his government. 1t would
be humorous il it weIe not pathetic, and
yet it is only typical of the curious and
profound ignorance which exists in Eu-
rope regarding America and American
institutions.
General Weyler was not the only Eu-
ropean before the declaration of war
against Spain who honestly believed
that the south was longing for the time
when it could throw off the hated yoke
Of the conquering north and once more
declare itself independent Of the union.
