NEAR BEER.

Editor Ship, always unique and often force,
full has something to say to the point theSqueS-
ton of near beer:
t'The Rambler is opposed to 81 ZOO tax on
near beer, because we believe that a tax of that
amount would defeatall ofthe purposes oftaxaton;
in other words, we do not believe that anybody
would pay the tax, and the city would not get any
revenue at all from that source.
ave favor tax of $25 or $40, which would
be paid by enterprising dealers, and the city
would be that much better off.
1--WE believe that this drink has done some
good already; a revenue officer made the remark a
few days ago that in towns where near bear is sold
there are less blind tigers, for it tastes much
like larger beer that great many people using
it as substitute for strong drink. 1t is entirely
harmless, having no intoxicating quality at all,
and if people are using it for substitute for some
thing that will make drunk come, We say that the
sale ought to be encouraged but that enough tax
should be placed on it SO that the dealer would
have no advantage over the saltwater dealer. The
sOdawater dealer Is the man who should handle &c.

The Case Being Altered Alters the
Case.

The stock argument of SO many Lou
isiana Democrats, so-ealled, that the
Democratic party is ''the white man 8
party" is receiving cheerful confirm
alton in the organization of negro
Bryan and Kern clubs reported almost
daily in the newspapers of the couu-
try.
Then, a negro bishop in Georgia
''comes out for Bryan and a half
column or more is devoted-not to the
news fact alone, but to a detailed
statement by him of his reasons for
urging negroes to support the candi-
dates of 1.-THE white mans party
All this is in strict conformity with
the action OF the Denver convention
and Is good politics and entirely fair
and right. But what will become of all
our Louisiana Democratic politicians
and voters? They cannot stay in the
Democratic party now any more than
they could vote with the Republican
party heretofore.
It looks as if the Hearst party would
poll phenomenal vote in Louisiana.

Stella FACTORY Sold.

q. j. Cleveland and w. N. Smith,
representing the San Luis Land and
Cattle Company, which owns and is
preparing to develop a tract OF land
embracing 81, 900 acres in tie state OF
San Luis Potosi, Mexico, were here
this week and closed q deal for the
purchase OF the mechanical equipment
of the old Stella diffusion factory in
the fourth ward. The plant has not
been used for the past several years,
but is still ia good condition and with
little renovation and overhauling
can be placed in shape to do all that
may be required of it. Messrs. Cleve
land and Smith made arrangements to
have the machinery taken down and
packed for shipment to Mexico. and
this work is presently being prosecuted
under the supervision OF L. M. Bar.
low OF Labadieville, who will be con-
nected with the San Luis Company in
she capacity OF manager of their ex-
tensive estate.
The sale OF the Stella equipment for
transfer to Mexico makes the third
Louisiana sugar factory which has
been transported bodily to that couu-
try within the past few years, the other
two mills having been the Chatwood
Ia Rspides parish and the Belle Terre
10 Assumption parish.

Vermont Presages Republican Victory.

Vermont Presages Republican Victory
The first gun of the national cam
| paign of 1908 was fred 10 Vermont or
Tuesday, and its reverberations seen
to spell Taft and Sherman very
clearly. The Republican plurality in
Vermont is usually from Is, 900 to 3d..
900, and when it falls below the mini
mum of $4,000 the fact is generally ac
cepted as indicating the probability
or at least the possibility OF Demo.
cratic success in the ensuing national
Election.
At the state election held in Vermont
on the 1st instant the total vote cast
was Sc, TT, divided among the five
candidates for governor as follows:
Geo. P. Prouty, Republican, 528l;
James E. Burke. Democrat, Is, 903;
Quimby S. Backus, Independence
League, 1852; Eugene M. Campbell,
Prohibition, 26; j. H. Dunbar, So
cialist, 479. This shows a majority
for the Republican candida ate over ali
OF his competitors of 1921, and a
plurality over the Democrat of 1886
The composition OF the new legisla
ture will be overwhelmingly RepubIi
can, as usual, the senate standing Re
publicans %, Democrat /, and the
house Republicans 2I0, Democrats 80,
Independence Leaguers s.
It will be seen at a glance that, II
the outcome in the Green Mountain
state possesses any real significance
IS forecasting the result of the greater
electoral contest in November, the
only reasonable Interpretation to be
placed upon the omen is that it pre-
sages Republican victory.
A state election is to be held in
Maine on Tuesday, the 18th instant,
and while the old.time slogan, "As
Maine goes, so goes the Union" is
not accepted az infallible, since Maine
always goes Republican and the Union
has gone twice the other way in forty
eight years, 1t may be confidently an
ticipated that our most northeasterly
commonwealth will roll up Re-
publican majority week after next tn at
will afford small consolation to the
political prophets and sons of prophets
who are anxious to create the i'm
preston on the public mind that
Bryan aud Kern have some chance of
election.
The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1908-09-05

While the New Orleans Picayune az
fects to believe that there is some con.
neetion between outbreaks of negro
lawlessness and the Republican cam
paign, the New Orleans Times Demo-
crat, on the other hand, fails to find
any evidence in support of the sug-
gestion that such lawlessness and the
mob violence incidental thereto are
due to political causes. ''There Is no
indication, says the Times. Democrat.
''that the Springfield lynchinRs had
even the most remote connection with
politics; while in the south politics
were never IS quiet as they are today.
There is no political bitterness to en-
courage race wars or lynchings. sss
The slow process of the law, its
many failures. rather than politics or
the presidential election, will have to
bear the responsibility for the present
revival OF lynching." Can there be
any difference OF opinion among
sane and sensible observers as to
which of our esteemed New Orleans
contemporaries takes the correct view
OF the question discussed?
