LIEUT.. GOVERNOR
j. y. SANDERS
Makes Formal Announcement
Of Candidacy for Governor
Of Louisiana.

Lieutenant Governor Jared Y.
Sanders issues an address to the
voters of the State, and The Sem
tinel publishes some of the pa.-
sages in the address for want of
space we could not publish the
entire address for the benefit of
our readers:
As Democrat l have no SYM
pathy with the idea that the Dem
oeracy tolerates the control of
party nominations by any man or
combination Of men less numer-
GUS than the majority of the entire
body of the Democratic electorate.
believe that the safety of our
political institutions and the per-
petuity of our splendid principles
of popular government are bound
up in the integrity of the State.
The Legislature should be as
independent of the executive as Is
the judiciary.
The power to tax should exist
merely to support the necessities
of government.
The cost of collecting the state
taxes, amounting, as it does, to
about 5 per cent of the revenues,
is entirely too large.
I do not believe a common
wealth SO prosperous as ours
should owe a dollar.
/ am In favor of increasing the
power of the railroad commission
of Louisiana to such an extent
that Its arm will be long enough
and It's power great enough to
deal effectively with the subjects
over which it has Jurisdiction.
The people of Louisiana are
hostile neither to railroads nor to
corporations, as such.
The matchless waterways OF
Louisiana are intended by nature
to be the great commerce bearers
of the state. It is the duty of the
state, as far as it has the means
and power, to better these impor-
tant highways of trade.
Good roads are absolutely nee
essary to the welfare of our state,
and legislation should be enacted
whereby good roads will be a pos
sibility and become a certainty in
every community in Louisiana.

NUMBER SO

I believe it to be the duty OF
the Federal government to assume
permanent control and provide
ways and means for the mainten-
ance of our levees.
Believing, as | do, that Louisi-
ana is destined to become great
manufacturing state, am of the
opinion that we should prepare
and enact proper child laber laws
that will prevent the minds and
bodies of our children from being
dwarfed and deformed by work
done in days that should be spent
in school and on the playground.
All differences between employ
er and employe should be sub
mitted to arbitrators, selected by
the parties in interest, for settle
ment.
The care and support of the
veterans of the Lost Cause in
their declining years, whenever
and wherever needed, is q loving
duty that we have to perform.
The education of the children
of the state is the most important
duty to be performed by it.
| am emphatically opposed to
dual officeholding.
l am unalterably opposed to the
creation of any more offices by
the Legislature. More than this,
I am In favor of abolishing all
unnecessary offices.
Whilst no objection can be had
to any interest being heard before
the Legislature by its personal
representative, | must protest
against the growing evil of a lob
by, which, if left undisturbed,
will in time control the entire
legislative situation.
lam opposed to secret and exc
cutive sessions of public boards,
and 1 believe legislation should
compel all such boards to hold
their meetings in public.
The only safeguard for Demo-
cratic institutions is the sacred
ness of the ballot and the fair
ness of the count.

watches and jewelry, or 60 off to
have your eyes fitted with glasses.
