ARCHBISHOP BLENK WILL
NOT HINDER PROHIBITION

The following expression by
Archbishop Blenk on the liquor
question and race track gamb-
ling appeared in The Times.
Democrat among the comments
on Gov. Sanders inaugural ad-
dress:
Archbishop Blenk, who was at
Crowley, La, last night was request
ed by long distance telephone for an
opinion, and said:
II did not hear every word the Gov
ernor said-his voice was a little
husky at times-and l have not had
time yet to read up his message in the
papers. But all that l did hear meets
with my entire acceptance. My posi-
ton on the liquor question is we'll
known. Morally.I 1 do not condemn
the drinking of liquor, if it is done in
great moderation. Just now, I am
total abstainer, because 1 want to set
my people an example. Under pres
ent circumstances, when the conditions
surrounding the sale of liquor are so
bad, | shall not take one step to him
der prohibition. To do that would
place me in the position of in6orsing
the evils connected with its sale,
which, of course, I do not do.
with regard to race track gamb-
ling, will fight with all my might to
have it eliminated. There is nothing
that can be said in favor of it.
"The Governors address on the
whole met with my entire acceptance.
l consider that it showed real states
manship. The views propounded
showed excellent judgment, and his
presentation of how they should be
handled meets with my full approba-
tion.''

ing complimentary write up:
Amid the yelling and cheering OF
several hundred lusty throats with the
Elks Theatre taxed to its utmost ca
pacity, the first real college night in
the history of the Louisiana State
University was held last night, when
the college play, ''Half-back Sandy
was splendidly produced by the dra-
matte talent of the university. To say
that the production was we'll received
would put it lightly. 1t received an
ovation, the like of which is seldom
accorded an amateur performance, and
the enthusiasm ana interest of the en-
tire audience was attested by the con-
tinuous rounds of applause. The play
was a decided ''hit.''
The seventeen members of the
troupe did exceptionally we'll. One
could have suspectes that the produc-
ton was by a professional company.
The play is splendid one. There is
a great amount of interest throughout
and it appeals directly to every person.
whether he be connected with a col
lege or not. There is an atmosphere
OF college life, comedy and a little of
love in it and it is of the kind of shows
that ''take." The production was a
splendid one.

.FAVORS LAFAYETTE NORMAL.
Special Committee Reports on
Visit to Industrial Institute.
Special to the Times Democrat.

!
Baton Rouge. La. May 27.-
Following d visit to the South.
western Louisiana Industrial In
stltute at Lafayette, a special
com mittee, composed of Mesrs.
MOuton, Y. l.. Fontenot, Locke,
Miller, Norris and Liable, to-day
| submitted report TO the House.
in which the establishment rf a
normal school ut Lafayette is
recommended. The report read
as follows:
Your committee appointed to
attend the commencement exer-
cises and make an inspection of
the Southwestern Louisiana In.
dustrial Institute at La afayette
beg to report:
The splendid site of tiftv
acres of land now occupied bv
the institution is now sufficient
to permit of great development
and enlargement of the institu-
ton and is magnificent location
for a school. The grounds show
that thoughtful care is exercised
in identifying them by planting
of trees and flowers.
The charges made to some
members of the Senate and
House by resident of New Or.
leans having lots for sale in La
fayette, relative to certain ob.
jectionable conditions existing
near the school, after a thorough
investigation were found to be
absolutely false. The inspection
OF the main building, the boys
and girls dormitories and other
buildings of the institute showed
them 20 be in good condition, and
kept in clean and satisfactory
manner. The equipment in the
various departments is good, but
will soon demand replacement
and enlargement.
The standard of the school
curriculum was raised at both
ends before the opening of the
last session, requiring higher ad-
mission qualifications and higher
attainments for graduation. On
account of this change the atten
dance of the session of 1907 O0
shows only fair Improvement.
This condition is explained in the
report of the president, now in
the hands of the members of
this House.
I'VE fully concur in the report
of the president, DR.. E. L.
Stephens, and recommend that q
normal school be established at
Lafayette, in connection with the
Industrial school, fully believing
that it is splendid school, des-
lined to become one of the great
constructive forces of the de-
partment of education.

ATCHAFALAYA
BOARD ATTACKED,
Senator Liable Asks for InyeSti-
cation. Explains Reason for
Resolution introduced in >
Senate.


a resolution in the Senate de
manding of the Atchafalaya Ba
sin Levee Board an account and
statement showing how much
levee taxes were received by the
board since it's existence under
act of 1890, from the parishes of
st. Martin, Iberia and St. Mary,
and also full statement of what
ever protection, if any, was ever
given the said parishes.
Senator Liable made the fol-
lowing statement as to the rea-
son for the resolution:
''This resolution is the elimination
of a series of indignation meetings
which have been held in my parish
during the last year. The matter has
been taken up by the Town Council of
st. Martinville, New Iberia, Breaux
Bridge, and also by the boards of
trade of these different towns. Sever
al attempts have been made to get re-
dress from the Levee Board, and
while we cannot say that redress has
been refused we 90 claim that no ef-
fort has been made to carry out any
plans that we suggested for relief.
Formerly the Atchafalaya water
spread itself in one large basin, now
by means of levees constructed on the
east side, the waters are thrown into
a smaller basin which constitutes the
most fertile part of St. Martin parish.
AS the levee progresses on the east
side OF the Atchafalaya the rise in
creases in that basin until it will de-
stroy entirely the plantations that are
now unoer cultivation. For twenty
years st. Martin has paid this tax
regularly. 1t has no representation
On the Board, and as the law is now
it has no chance of getting represen-
tation sufficient to insist upon relief.
my only hope lies in the changes
that might occur not only in the per-
sonnel of this Board, but also of the
engineers in charge of the levee sys.
tens.
One of the great injustices that was
through the influence of
this levee board was an act of the
Legislature which authorized the
of the Lafourche locks. with
the money OF the Levee Board col.
lected from st. Martin and other par
lshes, who had no interest in this en-.
'erprise. The Lafourche locks were
proposed in order to secure water for
he rice plantations along the La
'ourche, and also to facilitate navi.
CATION on that stream. I will prob
sbly at q later day introduce a reso-
ution looking into the amount of |
money that has been spent on these |
ocks as they stand to-day. The de-
ails asked for will, no doubt. prove
interesting reading matter, to the
axpayers.
II favor change in the personnel
II the Board for one good reason;
hat is that they have been too long in

large as one would have supposed it
would have been, perhaps il it had
been more extensively advertised their
would have been larger crowd The

care mneh about attending. which
shows that the majority of our citizens
are we'll satisfied to leave tho lighting
contract to the good judgment OF the
Common Council.
II the meeting was intended for the
purpose of censuring either Alderman
Currie or any o: the city officials it
was failure for the general opinion
seemed to be that the city officials
were desirous of doing all within their
power to give to Wauwatosa a salts
factory light at reasonable price.
