CREATING A MONOPOLY
Ordinances Directed at Electrical Pic
ture Shows.

In an ordinance introduced at Tues
day nights session of the City Council
1t Is proposed to make compulsory on
the managers of all the electrical picture
shows the providing of other exits be
sides the main entfaHoesssIs
Ii is only recently that it was pro-
posed to legislate against these shows,
III the plea of sanitation and of danger
by fire from the operation of the cleo
t.icrl appliances.
1t is well to protect the people with
Ill necessary safeguards, but in over
zeal it is possible to squnt at a mos
quito and swallow a rhinocerous.
The Caucasian has no interest what
ever in these attractions and believes
that the constant playing of the graphic
phones should be regulated, if not sup
dressed as being a nuisance, but to re-
lulre an examination of each individual
operating these electrical appliances and
subject them to the rules and regula-
lions governing the electrical require
Eents as fixed by ordinances of the city
wcgld be a great stretch of authority
These appliances are simple and can be
operated by any one possessing common
sense.
Equally unfair would be the require
ment of other exits than provided at the
front entrances of these electrical shows
which appeal to be ample and sufficient
to release a crowded house in two or
three minutes.
In giving publicity to these proposed
restrictions one place of amusement is
frequently mentioned, as having all the
requirements which it should have, as
il is a theatrical institution in the full
sense of the law, but this very mention,
if occasional, would lead to the conclu-
sion that if the restriction which may
be applied to these smaller shows is SO
rigid as to make compliance with the
requirements impossible, moponoly OF
the electric show picture business must
be inevitable.

UNION SLAUGTER HOUSE
What Advantage Will Be Derived by
the City if Desired Appropriation
Is Favored?

1t is proposed to secure from the city
an appropriation of $4,000 with which te
erect union slaughter house at some
point on the river below the city
What advantage will be derived by
1.-THE city if the union slaughter house is
constructed?
1t is stated that in the vicinity OF
Shreveport are fifteen slaughter houses.
How many of these slaughter pens are
in use? How many animals are slaugh-
tered? Is it not true that ninety per
cent of the meats consumed in Shreve-
port are supplied from packing houses,
in refrigerating cars?
Is it not fact that union slaughter
house would prove prohtless if the rev.
enue were derived from the number of
cattle slaughtered?
And if there could be obtained from
this section enough cattle ht for slaugh-
eer, could the home industry maintain
Itself against the competition of the
beef packers trust?
Is it not fact that the taste of the
people for refrigerated beef has grown
into such proportions that little of the
home slaughtered beef or mutton Or hog
is offered for sale in this city?
In view of these and other facts
which may be elucidated, why should
the city construct union slaughter
house?
II the city has more money at its dis
posal than is required for legitimate
reeds, let the surplus be applied to some
better purpose?
