LOUISIANA DAY.

All Louisiana will be invited to
New Orleans on Wednesday,
September IA, not only to celebrate
Liberty Day" when the gallant
White Leaguers drove out federal
usurpers, but to celebrate an
other victory equally as signal in
it's way-the victory OF manu-
featuring commerce. All during
the month of September the New
Orleans Progressive Union will
hold a Home Manufacturers Ex-
hibition at historic Washington
Artillery Hall when it will be
demonstrated that New Orleans is
manufacturing City. September
IA has been chosen as Louisiana
Day" and Governor J. Y. Sanders
will be rendered an ovation and
banquet in which the foremost
business and professional men OF
the City and State are expected to
participate. "Everything, from q
powder puff to pongee shirts, all
manufactured in New Orleans will
be exhibited" said President
Philip Werlein of the Progressive
Union, whose energy and ability
is enlisted in the big undertaking.
1--WE will have demonstration OF
New Orleans manufactured goods
which will open the eyes of our
own citizens, much less visitors.
and which will prove a liberal
education to the entire New Or
leans territory. We ourselves do
not know all that is made here
and by this exhibition we hope to
stimulate manufacturing all over
the State of Louisiana. That is
one Of our definite aims

This cou ntry rounds out its f.
nancial year on the last day OF
June. The books are expected to
show that during the year the ex-
penses of the United States have
outrun the income. The deficit
will be about seventy-five millions
Of dollars. This situation is found
now and then in the budgets OF
governments financially sound.
This deficit does not indicate that
Congress has been recklessly ex-
travagant during the past session,
although it is called the billion
dollar congress. Appropriations
have been confined close to the
actual needs of the departments.
Enterprises Of vast public impor-
lance were cut of without a doll
lar, as, for example, the Water
ways Commission, the rivers and
harbors, were neglected. 1t must
not be forgotten that the country
is growing in wealth, that the
population is increasing and that
the various branches of adminS
istration require more money
with each succeeding year. So it
is not mere extravaganza, this
seventy Eve millions deficit. The
real reason must be sought in the
financial depression that came
upon the country last October
and weakened confidence. But
confidence will return-in fact, is
returning and business is in
the decline in the du-
ties on imports will discontinue
with increased purchases abroad,
internal taxes will improve with
tho coming prosperity promised
In bumper crops.

MEMORIAL TO AN ANT1-BoxER.

Foreigners and Chinese who were IN
North China during the Boxer rising in
1900, says the North China News, will
not have forgotten the late General
Mel Tung-yi, who protected foreigners
at Tsangchou, Chilli, during that time
and was afterward rewarded with a
gold watch specially sent from London
by the British government. General
Mel died in 1904. Now, by permission
Of the Chinese government, the people
at Tsangchou have erected a special
memorial temple for him as a recognl-
ton of his past services. General Mel
was one of the very few high Chinese
military officers who did not believe
in the Boxers.

is said, was constructed some one thou
sand years ago, and had some preten-
sions to architectural beauty. The
cause of the fire, says the Seoul Press,
is ascribed to tobacco pipes carelessly
left on the spot by natives, embers
from which set fire to the piles of
straw near the temple. Unfortunately
there was no water close at hand, so,
notwithstanding the efforts of furried
crowds of Koreans. the flames, famed
by strong wind, spread rapidly until
the building was utterly destroyed.
The Buddhas and utensils belonging to
the temple were saved from destruction
by the exertions of the firemen.
