Will He Come Back Alive?

Professor Frederick Starr of the Chi
cago university, himself an African
traveller of some note, has been report
ed as saying that Roosevelt will never
return from the dark continent alive
not that the beasts will get him, but
the fevers. Ex-senator Thomas c.
Platt, who admits that he made Roose-
welt governor and vice president, says
the same thing, and, while Plat is not
an authority on Africa, he should be an
expert Oh death-at least of the polit-
ical variety. On the other hand, Carl
Akely, the taxidermist Of the Field mu-
scum, who has been over practically the
same ground that Roosevelt will trav-
erse, says the ex-president will be as
safe in Africa as he would be in Oyster
Bay and safer than in Chicago. Where

NINTH WAR DCoNTENTIoN.

gued on its merits before Judge Murff
the suit of the citizens and taxpayers of
what is called the Ninth Ward, who OBJ
ject to and resist being incorporated in
and being made part of the City of
Shreveport. On the decision of this
suit will rest the issue which has been
in agitation since this territory has been
taken in and has been recognized as be-
ing part of the city and is designated
as the Ninth Ward. 1t is assumed an
appeal to the Supreme Court will fol-
low, and should the final decision be in
favor of the Plaintiffs, the Ninth Ward
will then become nullity. Should the
Ninth Ward as constituted be sustained,

STREET TALK
But 1t May Materialize Into Activity
Some Facts Stated

Already anticipating the defeat of the
petition submitted I'd the Police Jury for
special election, the traffickers in in
toxicants are circulating a petition
which they intend to submit to the City
Council, hoping to secure a special cleo
ton for the voting, as it is claimed, the
return of the saloon in Shreveport.
The men favoring the return of the
saloon, as in the past, are doomed to
disappointment. Ifithey should fail be-
fore the Police Jury, they will not sue
ceed before the City Council, whose att
thority is limited in such matter. Be
fore the Council could act, if it had au-
thority, the law, fixing prohibition in
Caddo parish including Shreveport,
shall have to be repealed The Council
could not enact an ordinance which
would conflict with the law, which is
operative in Caddo parish, of which
Shreveport is part. At any rate, if it
were not for the turmoil of an election,
such as the issue of the saloon would
be, it could be demonstrated that the
saloonists and their allies are not as
strong as they believe they are now
They are not as strong as they have
been, and will gradually realize they can
no longer control or dominate in
Shreveport.

WORKING AND VOTING.

1t is said (and can safely be believed)
that in New Yorw 1900 women sup
port their husbands, and, being wage
earners, some one wants to know why
these women should not be allowed to
vote. Perhaps not one women in a
hundred knows, or cares, anything
about political affairs, but it would be
only fair deal if these non-supporting
men were not permitted to vote. That
would be better arrangement as, if a
man can not provide for his own house
hold, he is poor piece of material to
have the making of the laws for those
who have ability to not only care for
themselves, but for these men-The
Commoner.
The man who can and who will not
support his wife and children should be
consigned at hard labor in the pen, but,
on election day, it is this kind of man
who commands premium in money
for his vote. 1t is this kind of man
who hangs around and about the beer
shop and the saloon 1t is this kind OF
a man who is always loud-mouthed in
prating of his personal rights and his
liberty. 1t is this kind of man who is
scarcely worth the price of powder and
shot with which to kill him, and un-
fortunately no civilized community is
exempt from this kind of man.

LIQUOR SHIPMENTS TO OKLA
HOMA.

The Commoner: If resident of
Oklahoma wishes to receive shipment
of liquor and dispose of the same in
violation of the States prohibition law,
he must, as reported from Guthrie,
Okla, few days since, get to the in
coming train ahead Of the police if he
expects to obtain possession of the con-
signment before it is conhscated. This
is the effect of recent decision of the
State Supreme Court in which all the
justices concurred and which reversed
a finding of the lower civil courts.
These courts and the Oklahoma crin1-
ina1 court of appeals have held that the
interstate commerce laws protected a
shipment of liquor while it was on the
premises of the railroad and until ac-
tually delivered to the coisignee. The
decision was in the case of B. w. Tuck
er, who took advantage of the usual
court finding and shipped carload OF
beer to Oklahoma City. He was dis
posing of it from the car and the police
seized eighteen kegs. Tucker brought
suit for possession of the beer and was
upheld by the lower courts.
